It’s unpopular on Lemmy.

I don’t think people here quite understand how voting on this community works. Well done, OP. You’ve shown again that Lemmy can be an echo chamber.

That last sentence is so true. I love FOSS and tech, but there are cases where proprietary software is better, and that’s okay. Let’s be objective, not an echo chamber.

Yeah luckily Amazon is good about mess-ups that are one-time like this. Was the cost because you were pushing to, or retrieving from Glacier?

Tell me you don’t understand how the industry works without telling me you don’t understand how the industry works. OP is learning another technology popular in demand. Like it or not, companies couldn’t care less about free software.

Yeah I agree I don’t find alignment very useful. It’s more work for dubious benefit, and god forbid you change one of the lines.

This so so much. I want to contribute. The only time I ever have are when the barrier to getting setup and finding things I can do are low.

Even without them, Lemmy has extremely limited material for learning about stuff.

Kagi is great. I just wish it was a little bit cheaper. Every time I search more I’m aware it’s costing me.

For me it’s just too much political stuff. On the other hand, if I block some keywords, I might only be left with memes and shitposts.

That bit made me cringe. You go to the file, and can download using the Raw button or using wget. It’s not hard, it’s ignorance.

Also be wary about sharing confidential code. At work I don’t use ChatGPT unless it’s for extremely general questions.

It’s contextual. My understanding is that in British English, “going to uni” is equivalent to the American English “going to college”. At least in the US, the word college colloquially refers to undergrad, though a lot of colleges do offer postgraduate programs.

Seriously that would be great lol. At least it would be a funny reference.

Interesting. The study seems to indicate a negative correlation between porn usage and gray matter. I’d love to see more research on this, perhaps over the course of several years. I’d also love to know what the r64 metric they kept using for correlation is.

I’ll bite. Show us the evidence. Peer-reviewed, published studies in respectable journals.

I love the keycap profile and font on Keychron’s keyboards.

An absolute legend. I remember being taught his story in school and thinking how cool the whole thing (except the cancer) was. The Terry Fox Run is about celebrating him and overcoming major hurdles.

Also the constant outcries from vegans and environmentalists…like we get it, the world is on fire. You’re not the first to tell me that and there’s little I can do about it. It’s so exhausting.
