Well, it seems to be always the case.

Either that or 9/10, but this time it's that.

Why wouldn't you be able to take on a T-Rex with a shotgun? It's not like it has metal armor or lacks vital organs.

Well, everybody told them. Many times. And also pointed and laughed.

Well, it's a perfectly fine way to evade an attack.

Where are my glasses?!?

Well, I guess if you ask the right translator, it may.

It's a thing on most of the world. But it seems not to be a thing on a large part of the US.

Java requiring you to write every exception that can happen in your code isn't helpful.

Explicit error types are great, but Java managed to make them on a way where you get almost none of the upside and is so full of downsides that indoctrinated a generation into thinking knowing your errors is bad.

Oh, ok. Yeah there was a worse than normal outbreak during the previous 300 years, but "plague is raging in Europe" applies just as well for the previous 1000 years.

That said, I'm not disagreeing, 300 years should be enough to numb down a population.

What you mean ~300 years? Has there been some interruption since late Rome that I failed to notice?

Brazil and Venezuela on the same side, but all of South America on the other side. The US is divided East/West instead of North/South. The contested territories on Africa remain contested despite everybody around them agreeing. India and China are on the same side, Russia is mostly on the other, and Siberia is cut on the very accessible planes instead of big rivers and hills...

I honestly have no idea where the author was going with this.

The amount of people on the internet seriously complaining that both Rust error handling sucks and that .unwrap(); is too verbose is just staggering.

 

As a developer that learned it once, a long time ago, naturally I sign to the pledge...

I have some doubts if I should mark it NSFW.

 

All those student protests on the US seem to be about stopping their universities from supporting the Israel government. But supporting a foreign government is not a normal thing for a university to do, why do they do it?

Is there some educational or research resource they get?

 

The links like !NoStupidQuestions@lemmy.world.

I have had a pretty bad time making those work. I have tried searching for them at the communities page, and removing the exclamation mark and pasting them on my instance (lemmy.world/c/NoStupidQuestions@lemmy.world).

Some times one of those works, other times my instance finds nothing. And if I go directly to the home instance of the community, it doesn't bring my login.

What is the recommended way to use those?
