I think it was always shit, you and your taste buds just grew up.

At the time I ate lots of fast-food I also liked to drink lots of soda and ice tea, like 2 liters in one sitting when hung over. Now I puke a little in my mouth just thinking of that garbage.

What about loans against assets like houses? I wouldn’t consider simple house owners necessarily rich and they should be able to get a mortgage without penalty.

You’re the one reducing human beings to their diseases. That’s beyond just being a dick. It’s dehumanizing. But apparently that’s a-okay on this supposed leftist platform.

What came first? Anxiety or this totally healthy attitude?

If you go back to my example, you’ll notice there is a UserUniqueValidator, which is meant to check for existence of a user.

Oops, right, I just glanced over the code and obviously missed the text and code had different class names. Another smell in my opinion, choosing class names that only differ in the middle. Easily missed and confusion caused.

I don’t think our opinions are too far off though. You’re just scaling the validation logic to realistic levels and I warn that in practice coders extrapolate too quickly and too often, which results in too much generic code which is naturally harder to understand and maintain than specific code.

I would argue that the validate routines be their own classes; ie UserInputValidator, UserPasswordValidator, etc.

I wouldn’t. Not from this example anyway. YAGNI is an important paradigm and introducing plenty of classes upfront to implement trivial checks is overengineering typical for Java and the reason I don’t like it.

Edit: Your naming convention isn’t the best either. I’d expect UserInputValidator to validate user input, maybe sanitize it for a database query, but not necessarily an existence check as in the example.

As a sexual person sex scenes do nothing to me either and feel like time lost for the actual plot.

Missing isn’t really the issue but the splash is pretty unavoidable when you piss from height.

After 10 years of marriage you haven’t been comfortable to pee with the other still in the bathroom?

It seems to be more complicated than that

However, when the modulated light source contains a spatial high frequency edge, all viewers saw flicker artifacts over 200 Hz and several viewers reported visibility of flicker artifacts at over 800 Hz. For the median viewer, flicker artifacts disappear only over 500 Hz, many times the commonly reported flicker fusion rate.

How does this argument apply to Lemmy? I get the number of instances could be confusing but you don’t have to know or care about any of that. If you don’t you just land on some registration page and do it. I honestly don’t see how that’s more technical than registering to Reddit, Facebook or Instagram.

Yet more whataboutism. This thread is about tankies not capitalist slavery.

It’s extremely unconvincing to say “Sure it was horrible last time, but next time it’ll be different.” Trotskyists and ultraleftists compensate by prettying up their picture of socialism and picking more obscure (usually short-lived) experiments to uphold as the real deal. But this just gives ammunition to those who say “Socialism doesn’t work” or “Socialism is a utopian fantasy.” And lurking behind the whole conversation is Stalin, who for the average Westerner represents the unadvisability of trying to radically change the world at all. No matter how much you insist that your thing isn’t Stalinist, the specter of Stalin is still going to affect how people think about (any form of) socialism — tankies have decided that there is no getting around the problem of addressing Stalin’s legacy. That legacy, as it stands, at least in Western public opinion (they feel differently about him in other parts of the world), is largely the product of Cold War propaganda.

That’s the gist. Then he goes on with another paragraph of whataboutism but of course not a single mention of the tens of millions of dead both, Stalin and Mao, were responsible for.

Of course he’s also an western armchair socialist. People that actually lived in the Sowjet Union (and not in today’s Russia) draw quite a different picture.

Also whole degrees. edit: no, that’s wrong, there are thermostats that allow 1/10th of degrees (I only have old manual ones). Still, you probably are not able to tell the difference between 20 and 20.1 °C. Humidity is far more relevant.

A difference of 2 °F is 1.1 °C…

Always? That’s my first reply. Bug of what? A flaired character has a different code than a standard one, so your files would be incompatible with any established tools like find or grep.

For traffic Celsius is more intuitive since temps approaching zero means slippery roads.

You’re long passed that with Fahrenheit. And on a scale from 0 very cold to 100 very hot, 32 doesn’t seem that cold. Until you see the snow outside.

They didn’t say a difference of 1K isn’t significant but the difference of 0.1K isn’t.

And since the supposed advantage of Fahrenheit is that it better reflects typical ambient temperatures, we have to consider relevance for average people. Hardly anyone will feel a difference of 0.1K.

That’s why European weather reports usually show full degrees. And also our fridges show full degrees.

I don’t like that approach. Text search won’t find all the different possible Unicode representations.
