  • Whenever I think of the Dylan Roof incident.

    The death penalty isn't a punishment, who really learns from it, the criminal? It's a tool for society to remove what amounts to a defective person (not human, person). People are supposed to value the lives of other people by default. Any sustained deviation from this norm is a symptom of a person who cannot value life.

    Dylan Roof was given 1000s of opportunities to demonstrate that he did actually value life but because of his defective nature there was no choose but to remove him.

    "Life in prison" can be canceled/pardoned/changed, death cannot. That is why it's near impossible to make it happen and even if it does,, people spend the rest of their lives waiting for their "execution" (ftr Dylan is still alive at this time source).

    Now in what possible world would you be able to convince a jury of random peers, or judges with their heads actually screwed on tight, that a sample size of one murder proves that a person is defective.

    Genuine responses only:

  • What do they mean "help"? Does this mean that they're going to have to suffer with the consequences of paying devs?

  • Maybe a bit of an edge case but I use a wallet case and I still carry a credit card. Wireless chargers have cooked my credit card a few times.. and nfc Google pay doesn't always work.

  • Then I'd delete my old phone number account and start fresh.. not exactly the best option but all things considered you might have too

  • So you're right... To an extent... I usually say I'm making a new button when I'm figuring out an alias.

    I guess a better way to express my point is that I'm not geared for interpreting graphics to tell what a button is supposed to do, nor am I cool with needing to press the same buttons in order multiple times.

    On the CLI, all the buttons are named with (impo) meaningful names, and I can combine them into new just-as-accessable buttons whenever I want for free! It might align more with my working frustrations, I hate dragging my eyes over the same text/iconography every time I wanna do something, I want it to just 'happen'. I need a user interface that can react to me faster than I can think and to achieve that I just limit my UI to exactly what I want and I keep it easy for me to expand as I need it.

  • Imo I don't memorize commands. Everything on my zsh is so aliased that I don't think I can teach someone else how to use any other cli.

    It just turned into me telling the machine what I want it to do and let it figure out how to rather than me do every little button click step.

  • Radiate

  • DS9 Pale Moonlight: is my second favorite startrek episode. This is like the deepest exploration into a starfleet captain and how easy it is to lose yourself to corruption and operate outside of your government even when you're working towards the same goal.

    VOY The Thaw: an unironic cathartic watch. I'm ready invested in the characters and I get to see A1 star trek grade acting actually brings me back to that episode.

  • Undeniably fair

  • If I have to put a thread object in a variable and call a method on it to start it then it's OO multi threading. I don't want to know when the thread spawns, I don't want to know what code it's running, and I don't want to know when it's done. I just want shit to happen at the same time (90% of the time)

  • I've always hated object oriented multi threading. Goroutines (green threads) are just the best way 90% of the time. If I need to control where threads go I'll write it in rust.

  • Ok peace love and fuck google but serious replies only

    Why do we devs need Android?

    Most apps I build just display shit. They show prompts to the user to guide them through what I want them too.

    I can't remember ever needing to implement some high frequency data processing onboard and even so. Webassembly and PWAs are getting better pretty dang fast (isn't figma a 100% wasm-pwa?) so if I actually needed those I could have those.

    The last remnants of what a program could do on bare metal is like LLMs and visual processing. I'd also rather have those in a standalone app but soon we're gonna get some sort of WebNPU standard and (well) I might as well process images in webassembly (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ

    Like imo browsers are becoming virtual machines with (what amounts to) an undefinably infinite app store.

    When I freelance as an app developer I always encourage my clients to go the PWA route and then I wrap a PWA runner for the app stores because they only want to be on the app stores for marketing purposes and bc users are used to it.

    Because that's all that these OSs are, just UI's wrapping a browser (in my humble opinion).

  • Yes but mitochondria live in the cytoplasm. I guess I don't have much of a grasp of size differences that small so it blew me away to think to find a life form inside of the organelle of another lifeform.. I thought things were too small at that scale.

  • Whole bacteria are found within an organlle

    That is even more mind blowing to me

  • You are correct those are called "data urls", they're intended to embed files in text.

    This is not a data url tho, it's an ugly link

  • "why don't you just"
