I never learned it, even though all my classmates did (2000s) 😅

what

same, I was ready for this to be some transphobic thing and was pleasantly surprised!

It would be a different beast if the school didn’t allow you access coursework on a personal machine without installing their bullshit, thats a huge issue.

That’s exactly how it works at many places. Students can only use a personal device if it’s enrolled in the school’s MDM, which grants them just as much control.

Anything except the 2nd to last one, which is, unfortunately, mandated by my employer’s internal code style guidelines. 🫠

This may sound like a mess to you. But it was remarkably enjoyable to work in. Gone were the concerns of code duplication. Gone were the concerns of consistency. Gone were the concerns of extensibility. Code was written to serve a use, to touch as little of the area around it as possible, and to be easily replaceable. Our code was decoupled, because coupling it was simply harder.

Incredible

Agreed, unfortunately. I’m not even sure it supports defederation :/

It’s good we have “Knewbies” in a sandbox when they start.

attention all companies: please stop making pet names for your employees, it’s weird

It really, really is

In my experience, the larger threadiverse instances have gradually collected the worst ex-redditors, who have brought the worst of reddit’s culture. I’m unfortunately not surprised that lemmy.world has queerphobic mods, given how the users behave. 😕

my employer has decided to license an “AI RDBMS” that will dynamically rewrite our entire database schema and queries to allegedly produce incredible performance improvements out of thin air. It’s obviously snake oil, but they’re all in on it 🙄

Another vote for the steam controller - it’s versatile enough to work comfortably with every game I’ve wanted to play.

I’ve been using Xubuntu for half a decade, zero regrets.

My product manager is doing the opposite - pushing us to replace “bandwidth” and “effort” with “time”. We’re now expected to provide an accurate hour estimate for all work items, projects, and bugs. Getting it done later or sooner is penalized on the metrics.

Jain’s team then built artificial-intelligence models that were able to stitch the microscope images together to reconstruct the whole sample in 3D.

The map is so large that most of it has yet to be manually checked, and it could still contain errors created by the process of stitching so many images together. “Hundreds of cells have been ‘proofread’, but that’s obviously a few per cent of the 50,000 cells in there,” says Jain.

Ah so it’s not a real model, just an AI approximation.

The frontend is HTML only? Then I’d go with C# and ASP.NET Razor pages. Modern language with good DX, performant runtime, and server-side rendering.

Changing the domain of an established fedi instance is very difficult, almost to the point of impossibility.

In the past, people have stolen the problems to use in their own challenges, coding tutorials, and even commercial projects. The author has asked people to keep their inputs out of git or anywhere publicly searchable.

C# - a tad bit overkill for this. I was worried that we’d need more statistical analysis in part 2, so I designed my solution around that. I ended up cutting everything back when Max() was enough for both parts.

Thanks for creating it! 💙
