You’ve definitely given us enough information to make a decision. This is actually an alien probe.

You’re asking a question that nobody has an answer to.

It’s both unethical and illegal.

There’s no reason that a monolith can’t scale. In fact you scale a monolith the same way you scale micro services.

The real reason to use micro services is because you can have individual teams own a small set of services. Lemmy isn’t built by a huge corporation though so that doesn’t really make sense.

The text in English is “help, I installed the incorrect homebrew”

VRR isn’t supported by default by most distros. Just because it works with your setup doesn’t mean it works for others.

Also, this event seems to be primarily focused on AMD/Mesa support.

It depends on the risk involved. The US stock market has returned around 7% annually averaged over a very long period of time. That’s considered the benchmark for investments with significant risk.

I knew a goth girl in high school who was into blood play. She wanted to be cut during sex. I don’t think she was otherwise into self-harm which is interesting.

People forget that life on earth has been around for an extremely long time. We believe that single cellular life first appeared around 3.5 billion years ago. We also believe that the universe is around 13.8 billion years old. That means life has been around and evolving for around 25% of the time the universe has existed. Life operates on a scale far beyond our comprehension.

Another fun fact about life. We think that multicellular life only appeared around 600 million to 1.2 billion years ago. So life was probably single cellular for billions of years. The complexity of life has rapidly increased since then and will continue to do so.

Edit: new research suggests that complex multicellular life may have appeared around 2.4 billion years ago.

Yeah, I keep everything important backed up. I'm definitely fine if it dies. I'm just curious really.

Guys he didn’t need any severance. Dude was already loaded with shares. He’s sold 421 million USD worth of shares over the past few years.

Even if humans manage to kill off most life on Earth it will continue to exist, propagate, and become more complex. Again we’re talking about billions of years. There have been huge shifts in climate and mass extinctions many times before and yet here we are.

You’re certainly not the only software developer worried about this. Many people across many fields are losing sleep thinking that machine learning is coming for their jobs. Realistically automation is going to eliminate the need for a ton of labor in the coming decades and software is included in that.

However, I am quite skeptical that neural nets are going to be reading and writing meaningful code at large scales in the near future. If they did we would have much bigger fish to fry because that’s the type of thing that could very well lead to the singularity.

I think you should spend more time using AI programming tools. That would let you see how primitive they really are in their current state and learn how to leverage them for yourself. It’s reasonable to be concerned that employees will need to use these tools in the near future. That’s because these are new, useful tools and software developers are generally expected to use all tooling that improves their productivity.

YouTube is not a news source my friend. A lot of the “experts” you’ll find on there have zero credibility.

Interestingly, Sharks became a thing around the same time that massive fungi structures that looked like trees existed.

Flash was a wholistic platform. You could draw, animate, script, play video, compile, etc within a single comprehensive editor. HTML5 + JS was only the low level technology. There was no tooling supplied when the transition happened.

There have been some attempts to recreate the Flash ecosystem since then but they haven’t picked up steam.

Also, there was not any system for porting your existing stuff over to the new tech. Adobe abandoned Flash so you were left to figure it out on your own. These days Flash games can actually be emulated using the modern technology so porting is fairly feasible. But again people have already moved on.

I would say probably. As the internet has shown us cats can be trained to do so many things.

You would need to understand the fundamentals of cat training, the things that motivate your cats, and a lot of patience.

I guess I’m in the minority because I don’t mind subscriptions much. If I think it’s unreasonable I just won’t pay for it. Nobody is forcing me to.

401k (employer sponsored) and IRA (individual account) are managed by investment companies. They’re not a state operated asset. It seems unlikely that the government would move it away from these investment companies because they’re probably great a lobbying.

The law states that these retirement accounts should be completely untouched and recoverable if the company goes bankrupt.

Historically the market returns have been around 7% annually over the long long term but that fluctuates a lot and might not even be possible into the future but America is good at pumping those numbers up so idk.

Showering does kill mites and bacteria that are all over your body. They’re quite resilient though so you’re never really rid of them.

As others have said it is never too late to learn a language. Our brains are just as capable, if not more, when we’re adults.

I’m also a firm believer that comprehensible input (listening and attempting to understand) is the best way to learn a language. You can’t start with high level speech though. You need to start with speech that is aimed at beginners or you won’t understand enough for it to be effective.

Studying vocabulary in parallel helps a lot because it helps you learn niche words that don’t come up often in normal speech.

The typical recommendation with comprehensible input is to listen for around a thousand hours and then start practicing with conversation and books as well.

Good luck! Remember that with enough dedicated time you can learn anything. :)

Altering your perception of reality doesn’t need to be centered around escaping challenges.

Lemmy is not at all an accurate reflection of reality. Nobody in my day to day life is going to argue that communism is far superior to capitalism. That’s part of the problem. Us internet dwellers think this is what real people are like but that couldn’t be further from the truth.

I too met my wife on Omegle. It was in text chat. We were both around 14 years old at the time. I don’t remember what talked about but we ended up exchanging phone numbers. We texted for years and would sometimes play video games together.

Eventually towards the end of high school I was able to fly out to visit her. I did that a few times and was totally convinced at the point I was in love. So I moved across the country to be with her after graduation.

Married and few years ago and we’re 27 now so it’s been 13 years since we met on there. :)

It's a relatively recent 1TB Samsung 980.

Err.. no it doesn’t. There are so many bug reports of neither HDR nor VRR working properly with the steam deck. My deck won’t even dock properly with my TV after recent updates.

It’s better than most other linuxes in the sense that it works sometimes I guess.

Everybody is new to running Lemmy at scale. I suspect things will smooth out soon.

Yes! Now I get to continue enjoying the fruits of unpaid labor. Even better I’ll be able to complain about every niche issue I have without ever contributing anything. Woohoo!

I understand. I guess I’m more so pointing out a number that we have already.

I enjoyed it up until the ending. Good experience overall though.

They’re not distinctly a pack animal but feral cats often form groups to benefit their survival. A cat pack is called a clowder. :)

If they don’t want to support it that’s fine but they should stop releasing new micro transactions then

This has been said in the thread already but I want to try and boil it down a bit. Your question is about intuition vs evidence. Science used to involve a lot more intuition. Many things that the public believed to be true were just educated guesses with little evidence to back them up.

Over time we realized through research that a large number of these reasonable guesses were completely wrong. So now intuition in science has been largely limited to the hypothesis and the hypothesis is mostly worthless without evidence.

We’ve also seen in the modern day just how fucked up human intuition can be. We largely have intuition to thank for: flat earth, anti vax, snake oil, etc.

All humans? No. There are plenty of people who couldn’t care less what you want to know.

If I remember correctly the only massless particles that travel through space are photons. Photons are what make up light so to say they travel at that speed is a little redundant.

Does it? I love answering questions and I answered yours

I don’t know but I can tell you something about fish that’s pretty interesting. In northern parts of the world like Scandinavia there’s not much UV radiation during winter months. Our bodies need UV to produce vitamin D and we can have serious health defects (like rickets) without it.

At some point it was recognized that eating fish, particularly those rich in Vitamin D, made people much healthier. So it was codified into their culture and traditions to eat these healthy fish. Often with preparations that would preserve the fish and its vitamin D content throughout the winter.

I don’t understand the point you’re trying to make. It seems like what you’re saying doesn’t follow the conversation logically. I think that’s why the other commenter asked if you’re ok.

If you eat a truly balanced diet you’ll have little reason to take a multivitamin. However, many people do not eat well. In those cases a multivitamin can help fill in the gaps. Arguably it would be better to improve your diet but something is better than nothing.

I don’t. I suspect we’re the minority of Reddit users though. It’s a hard addiction to give up even with an okay replacement like Lemmy or kbin.
