Just a reminder that our instance CoC applies even on communities outside our instance. Please try to avoid calling people slurs per CoC 3.2 and 3.5. Failure to do so may lead to a temporary or permanent ban.

Looking at your instance handle, I hope/assume that your comment is supposed to be in lighthearted jest. However that would only be an assumption on my part and in general it’s not ok to say someone’s job/work tool is for [remarks directed at sex, gender, ethnicity, orientation, disabilities, etc…] per CoC 3.5.

Please take into consideration that members on this instance may be of different backgrounds than what you’re used to and interpets what you say differently. Further breaches of our Code of Conduct may lead to temporary or permament ban.

Please refrain from harassing our users, keep whatever argument you have contained to the thread it started. Following and harassing users across communities/instances is not tolerated.

You will only be given a temporary ban of one week from our instance, but if it continues after that it will changed to a permanent ban.

Appreciate the offer, but we want to try to avoid another situation with reports not being seen by mods for weeks.

Added as moderator

Added as a moderator, we will likely add at least one more if there are more volunteers showing up.

programming.dev will migrate over to (lemmy compatible) Sublinks once it’s ready, which will feature a different set of mod features. For that reason we will need new moderators to have an active programming.dev account. If you’re willing keep an active user account on our instance let me know. We would prefer people we know will actively use their mod account to make sure reports are handled in a timely manner.

You can, but you may need to edit some registers to avoid windows reseting them.

Got a few minutes into the context video before I head to close it. Do people actually enjoy YouTubers presenting stuff in this manner?

4 spaces, although I’ll die on the hill that tabs should always be used instead of space for indentation. Not just in python.

Python are fine with whatever number of spaces you want to use. You can use 8 spaces which forces you carefully consider each nest, you can use 1 if you’re a monster, or you can use tabs if you’re enlightened, python only demands consistency.

Depends on the file, very simple files may only warrant npp, but VSCode for more complex stuff where live preview may come in handy.

U.S. commercial reactors have generated about 90,000 metric tons of spent fuel since the 1950s. If all of it were able to be stacked together, it could fit on a single football field at a depth of less than 10 yards. Nuclear waste is solid, it’s not that difficult to store it. We get more nuclear waste leaked into our nature from coal plants.

As a reference, here is the room that Switzerland stores their nuclear waste.

Nothing you said other than expenses is an argument against nuclear. If anything, the take from you argument is that we should construct even more nuclear, not less.

If you care about energy density, nuclear is the best solution, not coal. I guess Germans don’t care though

For modding, it’s very useful to not have everything statically linked. DLSS swapping is probably the most prominent use case nowadays.

It’s uses safari’s engine, which is the only one allowed by Apple. Doesn’t matter what browser you download from the store.

“Brave New World” warned against genetic engineering, but that’s turned out to be a great technology for curing diseases and improving crop yields.

I was still a teen when I read the book, but that wasn’t really my take from it when I read it. We are still far away from genetically designing human babies. And you also overlooked the part about oppression/control via distractions such as drugs and entertainment.

His “work” as you put it, is the only thing of value on the site. SO without users to provide answers are worth zero dollars, so I’m not sure why you put work in quotation mark.
