Doing a “hack simulator” would likely be easier in other languages, so you will hopefully run into some problems regarding acquiring and presenting the information, which I imagine would give you a decent understanding of the flow of data in python.

I’d say “Go for it”, doesn’t sound too advanced and not “hello world”-simple either.

I’m pretty sure almost no nerds use chatgpt, as chatgpt kinda takes the nerdiness out of the nerd.

Script kiddy might fit better, looking at stackoverflow from the past half year.

Just another reason to buy music from the artists own website, if they have one.

It’ll likely be seen as “lost revenue” and therefore piracy by the holders, as I don’t imagine that they include small individual sites in their surveys, but the artist will get more money in the end and that’s what matters.

That would be very interesting indeed.

I imagine that the drop observed between 2005 and 2020 isn’t because people didn’t listen to music, but likely rather piracy and digital media being harder to properly gauge (musicians selling music on their own websites and such, not having to burn it to CDs first).

This is also supported by various claims and statistics showing a fall in piracy in the late 20’s.

Perhaps (hopefully) i just encountered some folks who just assumed something, and that it’s not actually becoming a trend.

w/ appears to have origin in the food industry some 70 years ago (according to this question).

To me it makes sense, as I first encountered it in video games where abbreviations, acronyms, and text-saving-slang are commonplace. Furthermore, while abbreviations usually have multiple letters (in written text, not physical or mathematical equations), single letter abbreviations can quickly become confusing, so I belive that this is the reason for putting a slash behind it, or possibly a bar above it.

RANT: While I know that language changes all the time, I find it very unfortunate that this little fellow o/ and possibly his slightly more formal friend o7 have become synonymous with “nazi salute”. First off, it’s the wrong arm! And second off, what do you have against “man waving” and “man saluting”?

It must be very confusing for someone who uses this newer definition of o/ to visit the Elite:Dangerous forums.

EDIT: I’m very happy that I apparently am the only one who has met people who don’t know the real meaning of o/ and o7. I feared that this was a widespread problem, but luckily it appears that I simply am a worrywart.

I guess that does make sense, and definitely not as bad as I had misunderstood it to be.

It feels a little weird, and I’m not sure if T+29:00 or equivalents are allowed in ISO 8601, but I have seen computer programs that represent time differences in similar ways.

Thank you for the clarification!

In Denmark we say “2 o’clock” or just “14”, sometimes also “14 o’clock”. No one says fourteen hundred, except perhaps for a few military wannabes.

If it’s quarter past 2, we’d usually say “14-15”. Half past 2 would be “14-30”, you get the idea.

If we mean to say “from 2 o’clock to 3 o’clock”, we’ll say “14 to 15”, which I imagine can be confusing for the uninitiated, as the only difference from “quarter past 2” would be a “to”.

For those downvoting me, what do you say? I imagine it must be other Danes or neighboring countries, as one surely wouldn’t downvote a culturally dependant statement if not from said culture.

Like the bastardization of the 24h clock by the television companies, doesn’t Amarican military time also allow for relative time instead of absolute? Like writing 5:00 on the second day of a time critical mission as 2900?

I’m pretty sure I heard this somewhere, though I have yet to verify this claim.

Right, used Google translate and still got it wrong.

The picture is from the day after, the dike did overflow(/flood?) and is now keeping the water in, hence the water on the wrong side.

EDIT: According to Merriam-webster, “dyke” is the British spelling of “dike”, though it can also be a slur in the right context.

It appears that the Greenlandic coast is filled to the brim with Github users.

Who let the Dougs out?

Damn, got us good!

That’s… Terrible. Truly the stuff of nightmares!

Writing out a person’s full name/tag every time you reference them is not practical (see my previous comment), so one wouldn’t give this as reason against third person references in a serious discussion.

Were talking pronouns as part of the sign up process.

@qyron@sopuli.xyz says that @qyron@sopuli.xyz would rather like to be tagged and be part of the conversation, instead of having people talk behind @qyron@sopuli.xyz’s back.

It’s likely meant to be seen as a witty remark, and not a statement. :)

Aliases are just bloat! You can do just fine without them. Heck, why not remove the ASCII conversion and read everything in hex or binary?

It’s all about SPEED and efficiency here!

Undetermined has a lot of English content, but also holds all the “undetermined” content.

While a lot of content disappears when disabled, I think this is exactly what OP asks for.

An alternative would be to block communities from non-English Lemmy instances, but that isn’t foolproof either.

I’ve begun applying 2-4 drops of oil to the tips of my hair after bath. The idea is, that your scalp will oil up and protect the rest of the hair, but usually doesn’t manage to apply the protective layer to your hair ends before next bath.

Like hearing multiple octals at the same time, when you’ve only ever heard one?

Like feeling cold and hot, when you’ve only ever felt uncomfort?

Like tasting sour and sweet, when you’ve only ever tasted bitter?

Like going to the country and smelling nature, when you’ve only ever smelt the smog of the city?

EDIT: no wait, that’s for someone who is partially blind, don’t think it works for someone who has never perceived sight.
