To my understanding the ruling doesn’t affect impeachment. Trump’s team argued that impeachment was the check and balance on presidential power iirc

Trump supporters live in a different reality. Because they’re in a fascist cult.

Not every change is going to completely overhaul the app. More than likely, the changes are a fix to some obscure bug not caught in testing that only affects a small percentage of devices. Just because you don’t encounter it with your workflow and device doesn’t mean it isn’t a critical bug preventing someone from using the app. It could also be a new feature targeting a different use case to yours. It could even be as simple as bringing the app into compliance with new platform requirements or government regulations (which can happen a couple times a year, for example Android often bumps the minimum SDK target such that apps are forced to comply with new privacy improvements).

Just buy a cheap Casio if that’s your budget. It’ll keep better time and is less likely to end up in a landfill

From a quick Google, it seems like Mullenweg is a complete jackass

Isn’t that what “classic” confinement is supposed to solve?

counterpoint:

I don’t want you to call me female or male. Creeps call me female and bigots call me male.

Why is astroturf “woke”?

I contribute and run some open source projects. Some projects receive sponsorships and contributions, some are backed by companies, a lot are just someone doing it on their own time, very few can actually meaningfully support the people working on them. Personally, I receive no money for mine.

After a certain point, learning to code (in the context of application development) becomes less about the lines of code themselves and more about structure and design. In my experience, LLMs can spit out well formatted and reasonably functional short code snippets, with the caveate that it sometimes misunderstands you or if you’re writing ui code, makes very strange decisions (since it has no special/visual reasoning).

Anyone a year or two of practice can write mostly clean code like an LLM. But most codebases are longer than 100 lines long, and your job is to structure that program and introduce patterns to make it maintainable. LLMs can’t do that, and only you can (and you can’t skip learning to code to just get on to architecture and patterns)

Bofa deez nuts

Brainworms are abound in transphobes

I just used the spoiler button in the lemmy interface. I don’t think there is a standard way of formatting spoilers in markdown?

I look forward to the day these bigots are seen in the same light as segregationists. Assuming that day comes, that is.

Benefit of being a lightweight in Australia is I don’t have to bankrupt myself to get drunk

It’s Australia. We have a very heavy alcohol tax on everything except wine.

I just read Yellowface. Hated nearly every character but loved the book. Also read Our Wives Under the Sea and it instantly became one of my favourite books ever.

It’s worth noting that Australian and American interpretations of liberalism differ quite significantly. The modern Liberal party and its predecessors formed in direct opposition to the Labor party, in direct opposition to the labor movement. They formed as a party against radical social change, against socialism, and for free-market policies and laissez faire capitalism, describing themselves as “classical liberals”. On the other hand, “liberalism” in the US more refers to social liberalism, but it’s actually the exception in that regard.

All that is to say that, when Australians refer to someone as a liberal, we mean a different interpretation of the word closer to classical liberalism.
