  • Should I Install Linux? Pros & Cons for Gaming & Coding

    Jump

  • we do cross platform stuff and I'm 99% of the time working on Linux, now I have to do some .NET core C# coding, was frustrated first with the language support on Linux - until I tried Rider. If I'll have to do more C# going forward I'll consider asking my employer to buy me a Rider license. The alternative would probably be me booting to Windows for that project (which I absolutely hate doing and only rarely have to)

  • Stop Internet Searching and Start Asking on Fediverse?

    Jump

  • I think about Reddit-style platforms being the centralized bulletin boards and forums of these days, and Lemmy is closest we have to a DIY kind of thing which is controlled by the community.

    Back in the day only a sufficiently tech savvy person could set up and run a forum software. Now everyone can do it, and with the Fediverse it's all nicely interconnected, interoperable and truly free and open.

    In general the Fediverse is the best shot we got right now to get back to the non-corporate Internet of my childhood and youth, I really hope it will succeed. And succeeding does not mean that it must grow and outcompete the commercial offerings, I think success is if enough motivated and interesting people join and participate. Quality > quantity.

  • Yeah agreed, but that presupposes that the person watching can distinguish someone just babbling and someone who actually is someone qualified to comment on some topic. And I guess the latter kind is a drop in the ocean, because expertise is a limited resource but opinions and bullshit are cheap.

  • Yeah in the best case it's just a promotional teaser. Obviously you cannot explain anything non trivial in that amount of time.

  • Are you talking about ePA? Because this is how you leak a lot of sensitive data into all the wrong hands, including hostile countries like the US (central storage in US company clouds) or opportunistic hackers (illegitimate and uncontrolled access to patient data).

    I agree that very often stuff is over discussed, but sometimes some garbage solution is deployed that really should not have happened.

    They should first repair streets, bridges and schools, and then maybe hire some proper IT specialists before pushing the digitization, Germany is maybe the land of the engineers, but most definitely not of the software engineers. At least the good ones certainly do not end up working for public infrastructure.

  • Yeah same, I've tried many things but I managed to always justify to myself the purchase to make sure I'm not wasting too much money on stuff that will just use space and be unused. Still happens, but could be much much worse. Some things I come back from time to time, when the hyperfocus cycle brings me back to it, like musical instruments. Some things I only ever get the entry level stuff because I know I will move on way before reaching some stage where I need better equipment...

  • Yeah, useless time sink with lots of flashy distraction. The people who envisioned and built the internet surely did not anticipate it will evolve into THIS.

  • Reaction videos are the worst, in any form. I'm waiting for the day until there's a reaction video loop referring to nothing than other reacts in circle and nobody knows what the actual underlying video was. The recursive reaction from hell.

  • That is what I thought looks like those speed reading techniques, but by force. So annoying. Not sure the "without loss of comprehension" is so true, all that I read says that speed reading is pseudoscience
