I prefer Micromamba since it’s faster at solving environments.

I see, my favorite podcast (“A History of Rock Music in 500 Songs”)[https://500songs.com/] has no ads. I’d strongly recommend if your interested in that kind of music

I don’t understand what you mean. I just skip the ads with my skip 30 seconds button.

If you’re doing it over an app, without the chance for the person you’re dumping to respond, I see no risk of things turning nasty

They did this in California and Oregon, then the schools went to shit.

Also, property taxes are a good way to encourage density, which is necessary to fight climate change

In the US you sometimes hear that phones in class are necessary to see if your kids are OK in a school shooting scenario.

I think this isn’t a good argument, since school shootings are rare, and it’s unclear if each student having a phone would do more harm than good in that kind of situation.

I don’t see the connection between neurodivergence and phones

Short haul flights should probably be high speed train rides anyway

I’ve been using Rofi for a few years. I can’t think of anything to look out for, pretty much does what it says on the tin.

I guess I didn’t notice when I opted in, and couldn’t find a way to opt out when I realized it was broken

If I want to have security, I would use a different communication protocol. I find it unacceptable for an SMS app to change quietly change to a different protocol, particularly if it causes messages to fail to send.

I found Google messages to be unreliable: refusing to send a SMS if the Internet connection is bad. The signal that the message failed to send is a single hollow checkmark.

I switched to fossify messages, which just sends SMSs or MMSs and doesn’t create its own flawed messaging protocol

How would virtual environment software, like conda, work without $PATH?

The goal of the zig language is to allow people to write optimal software in a simple and explicit language.

It’s advantage over c is that they improved some features to make things easier to read and write. For example, arrays have a length and don’t decay to pointers, defer, no preprocessor macros, no makefile, first class testing support, first class error handling, type inference, large standard library. I have found zig far easier to learn than c, (dispite the fact that zig is still evolving and there are less learning resources than c)

It’s advantage over rust is that it’s simpler. Ive never played around with rust, but people have said that the language is more complex than zig. Here’s an article the zig people wrote about this: https://ziglang.org/learn/why_zig_rust_d_cpp/

The obscurity of the Fediverse is not its defense from enshittification. The fact that it’s so easy to move from server to server is.

If lemmy.world enshittifies, you can just move to lemmy.sdf.org without a big loss.

I think that lemmy could use more people.

Linux is often used to refer to a family of operating systems including Ubuntu, Debian, fedora, red hat, ect., which all use the Linux kernel.

However, GNU/Linux may be a better name for this family of operating systems, since they all use GNU components and (to varying extents) embrace the philosophy of the free software foundation.

Android uses the Linux kernel, but not GNU components, and do not embrace the philosophy of the Free software foundation.

Stalman, the man who founded GNU and the free software foundation published his thoughts on this:

Lemmy.ml is also the instance made by the lemmy devs
