  • I was part of a fun era at my university where they switched from C++, which is what I took in intro to programming, to java. So by the time I was doing some group projects senior year, I was working in C# with people who had only done Java.

    They wanted to abstract everything. Everything had to be a class. Any time they repeated 2 lines of code it got put into a helper class.

    We ran into an issue where the code just would not run no matter how hard we tried and of course no one on the project but me bothered to use git (they would literally send me the zipped up project on discord and I had to copy and paste everything into the actual code). I ended up rewriting the entire project overnight. It actually wasn't that bad once I got into the flow of things. Turns out none of them knew how to program without being explicitly told how.

    Still not the worst college group project though. Maybe top 5.

  • I can't speak with certainty, but I can speak subjectively on this -

    I have family and friends all over the US (I'm only missing someone from both Dakotas to complete the collection), so I've heard damn near every accent, regional dialect, language, etc that there is to hear in the US, including some near dead native languages and Pennsylvania Dutch.

    The only people I know that use "females" instead of women are either in the military like OP or they're sexist. Sometimes it's blatantly misogynistic, sometimes they're casually sexist.

    Or they're both. It's frequently both.

  • Agreed. Using free CAD feels so substantially worse than literally any other option.

    I believe SketchUp is also free for most users, and I'd much rather use it if I don't want to pay. It's not FOSS, but FOSS ≠ good

  • Exactly! You cannot support that party and be surprised when you get called a bigot. You're playing with pigs and you smell like shit, bud. Conservative values eventually turn into hateful ideology 100% of the time. Conservatism requires someone to blame for everything, and they never blame the people actually at fault, they blame minority groups that are easy to attack and exploit.

  • Assuming Lemmy actually takes off as a reddit replacement, it likely will. Most of the time when a new service supplants the old, they take a huge chunk of what made the previous service great and fixes the parts that made it not great. Forums made Usenet groups better, reddit made forums better (fuck forum comment formatting honestly), and Lemmy will hopefully make reddit better!
