Wtf kind of article is this? This would be a great example of sampling bias.

🤣 wtf did I just read

Is this why C++ will never die?

As a life360 user, I really don’t know how any reasonable person in the last 10 years could sign up and not know they’re selling location data. It’s a free service primarily designed to track your location. I didn’t read the terms, I just assumed it to be true.

Grab an RTL sdr and listen in yourself!

Thank you, I was very confused by that left image.

I think part of that sentiment is also I’m not a threat to the government please don’t kill me

I basically only use Lemmy. Since reddit first tried to restrict their API I’ve been outta there. Other that that I use Facebook for marketplace because less and less is on Craigslist

Can confirm the faking it is obvious from the kids point of view. Wasn’t terrible but we’ll never know what could have been.

I just wish it was the original artist who got a job as a security guard just for this

Don’t be confused by cached ram, be confused by the oom killer activating while you have plenty of swap and for some reason it kills the shell you ran Firefox from.

If you want to go on a memory allocation adventure try disabling memory overcommit 🥲

That’s the most difficult problem in hobby programming: finding a project. Most interesting things seem to complex to start.

The solution is to say f it I’m going to try. Right now I’m very slowly making progress learning Rust by writing a program to trade cryptocurrency. It took a while for me to even take my goals seriously as something I am capable of. It’s half gambling and half skills development but 100% interesting enough that I have consistently come back to it. I’ve come to terms with the fact that the only money it will make me is if I get a better job by becoming a rust developer.

The Linux side of programming only really comes into play when you want to do networking, drivers, or esoteric filesystem intensive stuff. Windows and MacOS are capable of basically the same things. The main benefit of using Linux for development is that most open source projects are built by developers for development on Linux based systems, so getting dependencies has an easy one line command someone already figured out. For your situation I suspect the most important thing is how cool it feels when you use it. There’s something about setting up an operating system the way you want that keeps me coming back for more.

People are worried about losing skills to AI while all the skills have already been lost to Google and stack exchange 😅
