I know meta is shit anyways, but what is the idea behind their Twitter competitor, like what is their selling point?

The only thing she's mad about is that he wants to code in brainfuck

But the developer doesn’t need to provide support if you opt to use your own data storage and the storage itself fails. Google would be the one to contact if Google drive has an issue.

Well yes, but that's not how your average user thinks and acts. They will either a) contact you as the developer of the app that doesn't seem to work and when your say it's not your fault give you bad reviews or b) directly give you bad reviews.

You either don't know what binary search is or you completely missed the context of this conversation

It always baffles me that apparently in some places people still use sms. I mean besides the fact that it isn't encrypted at all, sms doesn't even give you group chats, the ability to send images and videos or many other of features basically every other messenger has, right? Where I live it's about (just guessing the numbers here tbh) 90 % WhatsApp, 7% telegram and 3 % signal. Is there any reason that in some places so many people stay with SMS? I don't think I've send or received one in the last 10 years or so (besides companies sending me a TAN or whatever)

Not all black people are African-American or even African or American, you know? I'd be way more irritated if someone called me African-American than black, since one of these is true and the other simply isn't.

Yes because this isn't a reddit phenomenon but a human psychology phenomenon

I also think, we'll have ads at some point - and that's perfectly fine and understandable as long as these ads aren't too many and aren't too intrusive. My hope is that because of lemmy's federated nature a healthy competition will emerge. So whenever an instance starts overloading the users with ads, users will just move to another instance with less adds at the blink of an eye.

As a former civil engineer who now works in software, "software engineer" irks me. "Engineer" means you're supposed to be licensed

This really depends on the country you live in. In some countries you need a license, some need you to have some kind of university degree and others don't care at all. So we cannot really use that measure as a definition.

I can physically feel the pain in the first one

Didn't know there's Kate for windows, nice

Speak for yourself. The internet has been a great place imo, at least partly.

similar story here, just that little me wrote his snake program with windows forms because that was all I knew. Every element of the game was a button. I remember the first versions beeing so inefficient (rebuilding the whole UI that was made of loads of small buttons every few milliseconds) that my Intel core 2 duo couldn't run it properly. Good times.

another is regulatory requirements by jurisdictions to be able to legally assume a role.

This is exactly what I mean with "this depends on the country you live in". Different countries have vastly different regulatory requirements. Taking UK as an example, you can call yourself civil engineer all day long without having to worry any legal consequences because there simply is no such thing as a licensing system for engineers.

Well idk the details in that specific case, this was just the first example I found. My point is, that different countries, states and institutions disagree on this matter. There is no universal rule that defines what you need to have achieved to call yourself an engineer.

Does streamlit displaying data from a csv file count?

How do you even version control or test something like this?

Ok now what happened. There's beans everywhere on lemmy atm and I have no clue why. Somehow I'm already out of the loop. Can someone explain please
