- Comment on When will LW be updated to something newer than 0.19.3? 3 days ago:
There’s literally communication in these comments that point to older communication on the same.
You’re being combative about it.

One of the few things we know about Vance is that he doesn’t believe what he says.
I’d take the coin flip liar over the traitor.
- Comment on When will LW be updated to something newer than 0.19.3? 3 days ago:
When it’s ready, because the admins do more detailed research than just “bigger number better”.
- Comment on How do l hire moderators? 3 days ago:
My typical method of checking is to look at the mod log at the very bottom right of this page (next to Legal), and search for their name. Activity there does not rule someone out, especially bans from .ml, but it’ll help you make a judgement. Then I’ll spot check their history, both for content and how often they post. People who are going to be on the site regularly anyway tend to be better moderators, as they’ll both notice their notifications and spot things without being prompted.
Unfortunately, tech_memes is still too new to offer any suggestions on who to pick. The one name I do have I’d quickly rule out from my previous interactions with them (likely troll).
Generally moderating a community shouldn’t take more than 5 minutes a day (a little more some days, a little less most every other day). It’s part of the reason we try to find a lot of moderators to do a low number of communities each. Hopefully you’re not getting that many reports on different content.
If you’re still having issues, reach back out to us in a week or two and I’ll see what I can do.
Thanks,
Lemmy.World Community Team

All that does is allow someone in the middle to potentially read your traffic. So what’s secret about the traffic between you and the Internet archive? If it’s only your login details, that seems like a you problem.
It wasn’t long ago that most of the internet was http only.

So you’ve… compromised your own security. Grats?
- Comment on Anon tries programming in Java 1 week ago:
Needing everything to be a class
In 2015 they added scripting. If you’re making a real project, you should absolutely use classes. (It’s not that hard. Don’t do the Java shit.) But you can absolutely write one off scripts just fine.
AOT support is still lacking.
Publishing your app as Native AOT produces an app that’s self-contained and that has been ahead-of-time (AOT) compiled to native code. Source.
- Comment on Anon tries programming in Java 1 week ago:
C# is nearly the same, but much, much better.
- It doesn’t (usually) come with the Java culture 8 layers of abstraction. This isn’t in the Java language. This isn’t in OO. Yet nearly every Java programmer makes things way more complicated than it needs to be.
- It’s a prettier language. Similar syntax with less bullshit.
- It’s open source
- It’s still multiplatform. Modern dotnet / C# works on anything.
- Both Visual Studio and Visual Studio code are great IDEs that blow Eclipse out of the water
- It’s one of the most common business languages.
- It’s going to be supported forever.
If I could restrict the world of programming to two languages, it’d be C# and Rust. C# for most things and Rust for a lower level language.

I think Italian and Irish are now acceptable. Maybe choose one of those.

feel free to wow them with contactless payments
This is quite dated. Per Forbes, "Nearly 90% of U.S. consumers now use contactless payments, "
Tip at restaurants where they take your order at the table and bus your table, 15-20% of the total. Absolutely don’t tip at those kiosks at the counter. They’ll beg for a tip because software. You’re absolutely fine to hit skip or custom 0. Don’t normalize that shit.

Selling what data? It’s already public.
- Comment on Premium Ads 1 week ago:
But something like $7 for premium without ads is absolutely sustainable. But, you know, line go up more.

Just be grateful if you’re not in one of the first groups. I spoke up as loudly as I could.
- Comment on How do Americans win their country back? 2 weeks ago:
I’ll wait 72 hours before settling with it, in case any shenanigans were involved. I expect it’s legitimate, but I want that window open if it’s needed.
- Comment on Election Analyst 2 weeks ago:
It embeds in posts, not in my comment.
- Comment on Calculatable 2 weeks ago:
(check out modern computing for why!)
Because when you need to do a process a thousand times, you program it in an actual computer. Then you just have a specific interface for just your process that makes everything simple.
And the developer really only needs to understand the process for a couple months. Once it’s confirmed working correctly, you’re generally done with that piece of code.
- Comment on Election Analyst 2 weeks ago:
If you just link directly to XKCD it does embed properly. I just tested.

It does say, prominently, “Who you vote for is secret.”

Normally I wouldn’t want to add more communities to someone who had so many, but, uh… Yours are special.
Done. Sorry it took me a bit to go through our usual checks.

- Comment on Balatro - Friends of Jimbo (Pack 2) | Reveal Trailer 4 weeks ago:
I haven’t played it on mobile, but it does seem made for it. And everything is turn based with absolutely no timers.
- Comment on Balatro - Friends of Jimbo (Pack 2) | Reveal Trailer 4 weeks ago:
I avoided the game after hearing the addiction rumors. A friend bought it as a steam gift.
It didn’t get me as good as Slay the Spire did, but it’s pretty good.
- Comment on Requesting Gachagaming - Lemmy.World 4 weeks ago:
You’ve been appointed as moderator of !gachagaming
If you’re going to post links to little known games, just try to have some content added so it looks less like spam.
- Comment on Requesting Gachagaming - Lemmy.World 4 weeks ago:
We’re a little concerned that you’re a ten day old account, and you don’t have much history. Additionally, the type of posting you’ve been doing can look a bit spammy.
- Comment on Anon reads a book for school 5 weeks ago:
There’s another bias in that kids with educated parents in public school will also have higher grades on average than the average public school kid. I don’t know how much that might affect conclusions. It doesn’t seem necessary to make the point.
- Comment on Anon reads a book for school 5 weeks ago:
Huh. I guess my experience was better I remember reading My Side of the Mountain and The Giver, among other things. Usually pretty decent reads though.
- Comment on Anon reads a book for school 5 weeks ago:
Considering half the home schooled kids are kept for indoctrination and/or abuse purposes, I doubt it.
- Comment on Is Lemmy an effective alternative to Reddit? 5 weeks ago:
Fair. I don’t agree with most of your points, but you make a good argument.
I still think we over prioritize decentralization. Federation is important, but’s not a primary feature to be sold to users. It’s not because we need a thousand instances. It’s so that if Gmail gets too enshittified that we have another email option.
World is where the activity is, and you do a reasonable job of balancing that.
