@AXwain Mario Wonder Bellabel Park DLC! It’s the time challenge in the lava level and it’s suuuper hard. I did watch a video but it’s just still so difficult cuz the platforms are so small and moving 😭

i spent an hour and a half replaying the same 35 second Mario level over and over and never ended up beating it 🥀 maybe i’m not a gamer after all…..

@milchspill Don't lose weight too fast or your body will just reduce your muscular mass instead of fat. That's really bad to happen.
This is because breaking down muscle tissue for energy is less expensive than breaking down fat.
Don't ask me how I learned that 🫠

I've been eating way less and my waist is shrinking, but I'm still too heavy imo.. only managed to loose 3kg so far 🫠

@oxcrowx why does it not feel moral to copy good ideas between programming languages?
the plus side is that a good idea spreads and many people can benefit from it
the negative side is what exactly?
English
Saying Odin is "only similar" to Jai's syntax, is dishonest.
Odin took Jai's implicit context, the "using" subtyping, and other things that Odin says, were developed by them.
I said I don't have a view on this, as ideas can not be copyrighted, but doing this doesn't feel moral.

@oxcrowx are people really fighting over this lil shit operator "::" or what

@valigo Why do they not talk about what they make with the tech tho? If they even use it, they must have opinions, experience with pain points, gotchas, and even personal achievements they are proud of.
Regarding "political stuff", it can be a turn off when you want just tech talks
English
I really miss when programming language/editors/frameworks wars were purely technical.
Now it's so hard to participate in a good faith, it seems like the majority of discourse is about liking/not liking creators personally, or about politics "in the community".
This makes sense, because most people are incompetent and have no way to discuss tech on its merit, but they still want to belong to the discussion, it's just a universal human behavior. It's the same reason why most people discuss pop stars' personal life instead of their music.
Still sad though.

@Lyzui_ Me parece curioso es que parte de sus quejas con I-A es que "roba el trabajo de artistas" y muchos de ellos crean fanart o usan programas pirateados, básicamente usando el trabajo de otros sin pagar por la licencia de uso...
Personalmente, no uso I-A por temas legales

"Para que te permita darme tu dinero por un servicio de dibujo, primero tu tienes que hacer tu propio dibujo"
De verdad que son demasiado ridículos. Sinceramente no entiendo cuál es la molestia de que usen la IA COMO REFERENCIA.
Es una tontería y me vale su "superioridad moral"

Controversial topic: AI. I think most artists despise AI. This is pretty much clear. But we shouldn’t treat the people who USE AI like they are also slop. They might just be uneducated on how much trouble AI causes. Can we try something like this next time, artists?

@Cristhi70720149 @Lyzui_ Eso es verdad! Desde la industria del entretenimiento viene esa práctica, especialmente con cantantes. Que los productores / managers sugieren justo eso de ocultar su pareja para vender más 😅

@AXwain Justamente me salió la duda por el tipo "Asi que si tenías novio huh... si me vuelvo a enterar que tengas otro te dejo de seguir" JAJAJAJA
Osea les molesta q tenga pareja pero no que todo el chat sean sus amores y tengan sus momentos o como?
Y de ahí me surgió la duda de eso

When I say that C++ is the best FP language, I'm not joking.
The combination of Functor and Monadic operations in C++ looks more elegant and uniform than an operator soup in Haskell.

@yacineMTB GraphQL was made to solve a specific problem and it worked wonders for that.
The issue is devs trying to force it to work beyond the original scope. Ultimately, for many enterprises it became a tool that doesn't solve technical issues but rather organizational ones

@milchstache I have been focused on some IRL stuff, so I only engaged in a few things here 😅
I still support you and wish you the best!

@AXwain Of course, you are always super active 😭🫶🏼 ur literally my friendooo

I'm going to scrub my followers soon. As much as it hurts 💔 I'm sick and tired of this account being so dead.

@fjzeit To my knowledge, those that "protect their own kind" are those that bring a caste system into the jobs. They discriminate against people of the same race just because they weren't born in a "favorable family".
It can be detected by what you mentioned in your post tho
English
ok, here it is. i've seen a lot of posts over the past 48 hours of people complaining that their (mostly technology teams) are disproportionately populated by people from "minority backgrounds". a lot of the posts appear hostile toward those people and propose that these groups are looking after their own kind.
it seems like a fair observation at first. you live in a place with a specific demographic you'd expect your team to represent that demographic and not have the majority group in that demographic massively under-represented.
well, here's the thing guys. companies generally have to meet quotas to ensure they are not discriminating in their hiring approaches. we all know this.
but don't blame the people. your theory that they are looking after their own is very likely false. if you want to find the root cause of the disproportionate representation in your tech team then cast your eyes wider and look at other teams and departments.
the team/departments with the least diversity are the root cause. your team is simply making up the numbers so that other teams and departments can discriminate at will.
look to the:
HR department
Senior managers
Sales and after-sales
Finance department
it all balances out. your company is probably a racist/(and other-ist) shithole playing a numbers game.

oh i just realised something controversial.

@richter_h_ Just a heads up: be careful with hosting a website, it can skyrocket in bandwidth usage bills thanks to A-I bots navigating sites. Make sure you block those following some list or guide about it
English
Guess it's time to actually consider hosting a dedicated website for my artworks. Granted, I upload stuff on Pixiv as well, but I can put as many tidbits as I want without any algorithmic repercussions.
The downside? Much less traffic and engagements, but that besides my point.

@zuhaitz_dev Is that a new term for crunch time? And how are these A-I users "coders"? I'll argue they don't see themselves as such and may be product makers instead.
A coder wouldn't find fulfillment with A-I doing the heavy work. A product maker will be happy seeing the ideas come to life

"So do you remember those AIs? Yes, those that are taking your jobs. Well, we told you they would give you more time (and they did, we laid you off), but now you are only a good one if you are willing to die in the next 5 years from risking your health".

JUST IN: Marc Andreessen reveals “AI vampires” are emerging in Silicon Valley — coders getting so little sleep because they stay up all night building with agents.

@potetm Let's be proud of the output that is streamlined and would be the same regardless of who is doing the job, bc that's fulfilling, am I right?
Companies made sure to have high bus factors, and bosses suck dry the souls of people, making them an obedient grey cog in the machine
English
sam is absolutely right.
and at the same time, having to articulate these facts *at all* says something about what the actual tradeoff is.
much of your time is spent accomplishing very little, and what little you do accomplish is anti-appreciated.

This is a categorically insane statement. At $400k/yr as a *salary*, you can live a wonderful life with relatively little stress. Save $8k/mo. After taxes, you’re living on $15k-20k/mo. By 45-50, you have a wonderful nest egg of $4M-$8M. You’ve lived a life better than 99%+ of the world on your way to it. And, since Meta does love to give out options & incentive units, they likely have another $1M-$2M in stock, which is just the cherry on top of the rich life sundae. For 99% of the population, that is a better life than what they’ll ever experience. And, the best part of the deal is that this high W2 salary provides them optionality for anything else. If they want to build a side project? No problem. If they want to angel invest or advise startups? They have the resources & a resume tailor-made for it. If they want to travel, enjoy life, raise a family? Can do. The notion that every job is a jail sentence simply must go. The reality is that 98% of the population is better off working for someone else.
