I am really surprised that people believe one person will change whole course of US military complex.

If anything they will put someone who is representing their position, not the other way around.

Things are determined, this is just people choosing PR person.

While I understand someone not agreeing with the way some instance or community is managed, I see value in different opinions.

Lemmy is great for exactly this purpose, we can have different instances and are able to be exposed to different ideas.

I can not understand the need of some people to limit their exposure to different ideas.

They obviously have too many people and are asking them to leave.

If they were without options, they would offer more money or would change work conditions for better. They will not disapear.

Just idea that they expect growth where there is none is strange. This business are at the limit and have no way to grow faster than economic situation of many people around the world gets better.

Sad part is fir them it is better to destroy service trying to increase growth in meaningless ways, than to just find a way to keep the business that is working.

Idea of infinite growth is ruining us.

But that is always happening. Software that now can be built by two programers needed IBM few decades ago, just because of hardware, languages, available libraries and shared knowledge.

But we still have so many “app ideas” that there is more work to be done. I would be happy to have AI write all those apps that I need and have no time or money to make them.

My conclusion is that it is only about money and economy. We are in unofficial recession so everyone is cutting costs, as soon as money comes back we will go back into bulking/exploration phase.

McLaren still finding ways to destroy every bit of happiness in success.

Just make a decision and stuck with it, this kind of every week new idea just kills every bit of joy.

Nice graph, I didn’t expect that.

We all had experience with ads showing up after we talked in person with someone about topic. I don’t need some random person ir media telling me something obvious is happening. And for some time already.

It is very hard, time consuming and boring to iron out those finishing issues in any software product. You need team of people being paid for that.

When doing it for fun, I just go until it works and until it is fun. As soon as I come to those last 20% I never touch it anymore.

So ai doubt it will happen until more companies start paying decelopera to do it. But I don’t see the business model in that, so I doubt it will get better fast.

I don’t know about game dev, buy SerenityOS guys are flirting with Swift.

If it wasn’t from Apple, I would be all over it. They basically took different languages and most of C++ devs made fastest advance in Swift. Rust I do like and support, but is too confusing for amout of free time I have.

I don’t see it as OP equated Ukraine to Palestine, just theoretizes that there is common other side in those conflicts and that reasons for those wars are not what we think they are.

Interesting idea, but I don’t see it.

Amount of batteries needed is not solved problem.

EU has around 250 million cars, with 10-15 million sold every year. Even best future mines have lithium for around 1 million cars per year and those batteries last about ten years.

Sodium Ion might give us a chance if we invest in technology.

Every social media has the same problem, reddit is on one side, twitter on the other, facebook is filtering by their own goals.

People here are just a bit different angle. But each instance is a little different, lemmy.world is more reddit like, lemmy.ml is leftist, hexbear is… something too, there are probably some right wing instances. Much more diverse than other networks and I enjoy seeing all those different point of views.

This is current problem in society that we don’t tolerate different opinion.

We learned to hate “algorithm” but those can actually be good if creator wants to help us insted of manipulate us.

Without a friendly algorithm to help us, we have no chance in finding our way around all this information around us.

Those are only .md files, I guess any text editor will open them.

Yeah, no reminders and tasks, but notes should be accessible from anything and git can sync it. Never tried it, but text files were the reason I choose zim in the first place. I want it simple.

Same. Perfectly simple to start, and you can build from there.

I just dump stuff if I not in the mood to organize it.

Zim Wiki https://zim-wiki.org/

Desktop wiki, saving to .md text files, can commit to git repo and has basic task handling.

Perfect for me.

Zim can be used to:

Keep an archive of notes
Keep a daily or weekly journal
Take notes during meetings or lectures
Organize task lists
Draft blog entries and emails
Do brainstorming

Even better when we remind ourselves that GTK means “Gimp ToolKit” :)

I have done stuff by myself they in anybtime before yt would need someone to show me.

Whem car mechanic tells me I have problem on my car I can find yt on how to detect it and how to solve it. I don’t get knowledge to do it, but I can definitely appreciate their work more and not think they are just ripping me off.

It is amazing what we have and take for granted.
