Working the neutral way currently. There’re so many tickets, all of them more important than the other, I can just as well take from the stack.
Thanks a lot for the detailed explanation!
Thank you
Slightly off-topic, please excuse the question:
I’m new to Fedora (and Linux Desktop in general) and saw the update for 40 yesterday. Is it save to simply hit the update button and let it do the update, or should I take any precautions, or anything afterwards which is expected to reset (settings, applications, etc? idk).
Data and such is savely backed up. That’s not a concern.
Double edged sword, but yeah.
Acquisitions don’t need to pay for themselves. Ideally they do, but sometimes it’s enough if they just help the company’s main business stay in business, or grow.
IBM is making $30bn+ in gross profit each year.
I hear you. It’s amazing how much some company’s code / projects is allowed to suck.
Not even “my” tiny-little-side-module inside the project source recompiles within 20 seconds… because of absurdly complex and large dependencies to the actual project code.
If you’re thinking about rage quitting a job you don’t even have yet, maybe take a different career from the beginning?
What the hell.
Dude shouldn’t worry. Kids will understand that he has or had a boring job with not much to talk about… and still be the greatest dad in the world. Kids don’t care about the job of their parents.
Unfortunately, if anyone, I do.
We do that for some of the more complex business logic. We wrote libraries, which are used by our tests, and we wrote tests which test the library functions to ensure they provide correct results.
What always worries me is that WE came up with that. It wasn’t some higher up, or business unit, or anything. Only because we cared to do our job correctly. If we didn’t - nobody would. Nobody is watching the testers (in my experience).
Meme answer: Changed a manual wait from 20 seconds to 18 seconds. Boom, 10% performance improvement. I can only do it so often though.
My current project is building a (almost) 1gb Java rich client which takes around 2minites to load… while it’s merely a gui with some small client to client capabilities. The technical debt is insane, and it’s only getting worse because neither can they afford to rebuild it from scratch.
It does have that vibe, but it’s unarguably true that a lot of software and websites are ridiculously bloated and slow.
Just like the OG Pirate Bay. They closed down, and someone else, unknown, took over.
That’s not unproblematic ofc as the new owner can do whatever they want without the oversight of the non-profit.
Good initiative, but it feels a like the precursor to becoming a legit business.
Well I don’t know why it’s being done like this, but my informed guess would be:
Resilience. If the content wouldn’t be copied, defederating/blocking an instance would mean that the content you created there (topics, comments, etc) would be lost to you. So if you wrote a nice comment, or saved a bunch of topics for later, and then your instance blocks the other instance… that would be gone for you. With the copy this doesn’t happen.
Performance. Instead of having to deal with every user (from a different instance) individually, your instance only has to deal with other instances. With this updates between each other can be sent in larger chunks (and definitely with less network connections). Additional benefit: smaller instances don’t get knocked down by user-heavy instances when they host a popular community.
Just guesses tho.
All social media is a liability time bomb unfortunately. That’s why only the biggest players can afford it so far.
Are the admins of lemmy.world somehow responsible for what their members do, even if it´s not on their own instance?
They are not responsible for what their users do, but for what is saved on their instance. And by any lemmy.world user interacting with content from a different instance, their lemmy.world will host a copy of that content. That’s how lemmy works.
So if a lemmy.world user subscribes to a pirate sub, that whole subs content is now mirrored on lemmy.world.
Not just related to piracy that’s a huge liability issue for admins.
Sure let me know in a ticket, I’ll get to it eventually!
