Everybody hating on Java being the de facto language every student learns first (at least back when I was in university) but I think it's actually a great first language while I don't think python is for one simple reason: it has types but tries to hide them from you. It is soooo important to understand types early though.

True. To me, Lemmy feels somewhat more like the old vBulletin forums I used to browse 15 years ago.

Warte, die Gurtpflicht ist in Teilen der Gesellschaft noch umstritten????

Not from the US and I don't understand why one would support a candidate just because he survived an assassination attempt. Can somebody explain the logic behind this?

Ah yes, this year is definitely the year of the Linux desktop. For real this time!

How is this going to end?

Google blocks access to it's services for Firefox altogether? Maybe even ban it from the Play Store? That would finally give me a real incentive to install some CFW.

I love Kotlin (programming.dev)

...but I hate that you can practically only use it with IntelliJ. Trying to use it with just Gradle and vscode is such a pain and maybe even impossible to get anything more than basic syntax highlighting. That is all.

I use Kubuntu in mostly default configuration. Am I special or a normie?

Vorraussetzung ist, dass der Gesprächspartner Beweise anerkennt und das tun sie oft nicht.

Stellt euch vor ihr müsst so dringend zur Arbeit um Wert für euren Arbeitgeber zu schöpfen, dass ihr dafür jemanden überfahren würdet, statt zu spät zu kommen.

The difference is that this is an open source community driven effort. Reddit is a for profit business. On that basis, I give Lemmy a lot more leeway when it comes to bugs. Reddit just turned into a slog over the last few years BECAUSE they try to monetize it to death.

Good tech podcasts (programming.dev)

What are some good tech related podcasts you can recommend? I've listened a lot to Darknet Diaries but lately, I've found it to become less and less interesting as he mostly just interviews some pentesters.

My current role includes a lot of DevOps and infrastructure on AWS and some software development. Bonus points if the podcast focuses on that but I'll check out everything tech related you can recommend.

I only joined Lemmy yesterday and I plan on using both for now but this site and app are already a so much better experience without ads and everything loads lightning fast. And then I open reddit and I have to look at the spinning circle everytime I click on something. For some reason, it's even worse on desktop. That shit feels so unresponsive.
