What other apps do you like?

Mind you I like discord, but the discord apps are pretty shit. I use it in the browser

A little. They keep adding features and overcomplicating it though.

Slack is crazy. I’ve only used the web version and find it absurdly slow and poorly designed compared to say discord. No idea how it got so popular

I’m not going through every one, but null checks, vertical separation, status variables and binary operator in name, are all things that often make your code better and more readable

half of these will make your code better lmao

Many do. Matlab, Julia and Smalltalk are the ones I know

Users on just desktop has been shrinking too, despite more people using computers in general https://data.firefox.com/dashboard/user-activity

Doesn’t matter, all the forks combined make up a fraction of FF.

Plus people moving to forks still hurts Mozilla

I’m in the correct age, and terminally online enough to understand most of it. I can say 3 things:

1. Kids don’t actually use these. There’s an overlap between the latest slang and brainrot terms, and most of the ones that don’t overlap primarily originated in some slang or common term, but nevertheless the majority of the words here now exist as brainrot terms first, not actual slang irl
2. This meme is using most of them wrong. Most brainrot memes do.
3. This is one of the lowest effort esolangs I’ve ever seen, so it’s not terribly interesting. It’s literally just python with keywords and some vars replaced with brainrot terms. To see something actually high effort that’s similar, see something like Shakespeare https://esolangs.org/wiki/Shakespeare

YouTube may have a feature to normalize audio, I remember reading something about it

Any IDE worth a damn will manage that for you.

Yeah in like 10% of cases. I’m copying something from a pdf my prof gave. The only ones able fix spacing now are me and God

Does anyone not use ffmpeg at this point?

It’s like two 2 js functions, I can dm you the code if you want

Hey I’m the coship guy (coshipmate?). I also found out the hard way the lemmy api doesn’t respond if you’re missing some parameters. Actually the most helpful thing was opening up photon and just seeing the network requests it sent.

I’ve used a few platforms in my life and am currently mainly on Mastodon and Pixelfed, but Reddit, the role model for Lemmy, was never one of them. It seemed very confusing and complex to me and I had the same feeling with Lemmy. It’s all a bit different from Mastodon, but that’s mainly because you have to deal with another level here, the communities.

Yeah funny how that works. I find twitter, and thus mastodon very confusing. There’s no organization or discoverability except what’s added on by hashtags (very inconsistent) or algorithms (don’t exist on mastodon).

Lemmy doesn’t care about users, only communities. You can’t even follow them (which can be quite annoying when things like wordpress join the fediverse, but make blogs “users” even though they can have multiple authors, and now you can’t follow them through lemmy)

Honestly, I’m just gonna stick to llamafile. I really don’t want to mess around with python. It also causes way more trouble than I anticipate

Why do you need either? Just throw the both in the html

That’s only half the article

Since forever. It’s very slow, I’m still not sure replying is actually in the spec or email clients fake it with Re: and then force you to quote the entire history of the conversation back and forth. Also very easy to break if you don’t like the Re: or something. People are constantly replying to the wrong person or persons, sometimes even to themselves. You have weirdly named fields “cc” and “bcc” that are present all the even though I use them like 4x and 1x a year, respectively. You can’t unsend or delete emails.

And all this is before I get into doing git or calendars over email.

Email is in fact one of the reasons I’m not sure I want the fediverse to succeed right now, because then all the faults of activitypub will be forced on us for centuries, like they are with email.

Will it actually save all that much?

Some instances will continue for a bit, but it’s probably a matter of time, or until invidious figures out another method
