The "microsoft rival", as it is called in the headline, is alfaview, a company that offers GDPR compliant video conferencing software.

And they complain that Teams gets bundled with Office by default which givea this an advantage over other (their) product.

Apparently they learned a lot from r/subredditsimulator

Reddit is really on their way to become the next facebook.

I only know of a handful of cases where branchless programming is actually being used. And those are really niche ones.

So no. The average programmer really doesn't need to use it, probably ever.

The people hosting lemmy ml are also hosting the instance lemmygrad.ml You can look around there. Those are tankies.

I used the chat feature semi-regularly to chat with people about more private stuff. It was mostly about exchanging in creative endeavours, sharing what we had before posting it to Reddit.

So I am a bit moved now that they want to delete it.

But I also hated Reddit's implementation of it. Under certain circumstances it wouldn't load older messages and worst of all it was only available on the official app, not even their mobile web app. So continuing my chats forced me to use my desktop, or to try out the app which was horrible.

At this point, let Reddit burn in their mistakes and hopefully the others will make it better.

I'm interested to see how AI training on reddit turns out. Especially the default subs are full of snarky jokes, even on serious topics the majority of comments are "funny" one liners. And those are the ones getting the most upvotes.

Compared to a system like StackOverflow where the upvoted answers are the most helpful and mostly well written and thoughtfully crafted.

NATO advised to have important stuff evacuated and preparations were actually taken to move the mriya.

According to the SBU, the Mriya aircraft was in good technical condition on the eve of Russia's full-scale invasion, the Hostomel Airport had sufficient fuel for the flight, and the crew was ready for departure.

"However, the former General Director of Antonov State Enterprise did not issue the relevant order and ignored the reports and proposals of his subordinates," reads the report.

They had no problem selling the 3DS (versus the DS) or even the 3DS XL or new 3DS.

I think they will ride a bit on the success of the Switch but will make it clear that it is a new system.

Lemmy is written in Rust. I currently don't know if there is fediverse server software written in Go tbh

I have an RG353V and I freaking love this thing.

The past few years I barely played games at all. It's only when I got my little device that I noticed how much I liked playing anywhere: On my couch, on my seat, in my bed or during travel.

It really reignited my love of games.

The manufacturer is chinese, so that's why most offers are from chinese resellers.

I think it would be the best advice to buy directly from their online store

Absolut unverständlich. Wölfe sind wunderbare Tiere und die Gefahr für Menschen ist minimal.

Außerdem sind sie eigentlich ein wichtiger Teil des Ökosystems. Die Jagdkultur in Deutschland geht definitiv zu weit.

Yeah, it's something else reading on a Lemmy instance, under a hammer and sickle how the worst thing Putin does is "transphobia". And how the west is doing lying propaganda because Kinzhal could never be intercepted by the inferior Patriot.

Nim is not transpiled. Transpilation means translation between equal levels of abstraction. The C code generated by Nim is not something most people would do anything with.

I like Nim and many concepts of it with the big point of discussion being that function names get normalized (helloWorld === hello_world).

But I feel like that Nim is a language without purpose. It's all nice and cool on paper, but it has no use case where I think "I have to do it in Nim".

Go is known for making small, fast startup web apps, Python for making small one time tasks or Data work, Rust low level programming if you like functional programming, PHP if you want yo setup a website as fast as possible.

But Nim doesn't have this, it doesn't have a library that's better than in all other languages. It's nice but what for?

I have some great fun playing Pokémon RomHacks like Unbound or GS Chronicles.

Otherwise I started playing the original Mega Man Battle Network titles for the GBA.

If we randomly assume they were halfway down (no idea on where they actually were but as a blind guess 50% is a good starting point)

The wreck was found 500m away from the wreck of the Titanic, the Titan descends in a curve and not straight downwards, gives pretty good indication that they were near the depth of the ocean floor. Combine that with the fact that they descended faster than anticipated and that they lost communication right around the time they were supposed to reach the lowet point, I think they were close to the ocean floor.

But cautiously saying half is probably better.

This is actually a very cool and insightful blog post. I'd have liked if the code was worked better into the written text however. I mean it didn't dive deep into it's Java usage or the specifics of the JVM, other than it being very well optimized for short lived objects.

However, the precise performance numbers should be taken with a grain of salt. I'd classify this as a micro benchmark and those can often be influenced by stuff like cache locality and other small details and could look quite different on other machines.

Oh, I'm dumb. Thanks for clearing this up :)
