Maybe they should advocate for better fuel regulations and densification ;)

On the other hand React Native is a JavaScript based development language developed by Facebook to make applications run slower and worse.

Object oriented programming was a mistake

Yeah this thread ended up being more hostile to regular Americans than I intended but US culture and US global hegemony are the things that attract and amplify the shitty people from around the world.

USA is the final boss of capitalist imperialism and the people have completely lost control over the reins. It’s now a matter of when they actually say enough is enough, be it now or after Fascism runs its course and hurts millions of others around the world as well.

Early Reddit was more thoughtful and the communities were smaller, Lemmy theoretically could be the same, but a big problem IMO is that all social media has blended together and people are sharing stuff they see on Twitter and Facebook on every other platform.

Social media hadn’t been so homogenized during old Reddit, and it was a lot less acceptable to cross pollinate between social media platforms.

The old Internet is just dead, in general. You would have to ban links like this that are just “other social media” on Lemmy. Otherwise, there aren’t really any walls between the communities at all.

Canadians are, generally speaking, taking plenty of action against Trump and the United States. Travel and purchase boycotts for instance.

We’re not the only victims, no, but you have to clean up your own mess. When given the choice to follow you, Canadians recently chose not to.

Instead of getting butthurt at internet comments go out into the streets

These fascist right wing bastards are being emboldened (and amplified by American conservative funding) everywhere but Canada realizes it’s dependent on immigration enough that even our right wing parties are more hesitant to go full racist so the lowest of the low here don’t have a Trump to get all enthusiastic about.

Plus now that Trump is picking a fight they don’t feel as comfortable speaking up here with their shitty views.

Stop your billionaires from funding right wing bullshit in my country then

After all the shit you’re giving us to deal with in Canada this would be the final straw that leads to war. He’s a product of your culture and his power comes from you, he’s your creation.

similarly when there’s some simple arithmetic I can’t mentally calculate I use a cloud based coal powered statistical word generator because I don’t realize that there are existing dedicated tools for the job and it’s easier for me to defecate my stream of consciousness into a chat window than to take my eyes off vertical infinite scrolling video long enough to take basic troubleshooting steps

yes we should be doing more to reduce driving, it’s relatively unsafe and I’m sick of our lived environments being designed for cars and not people.

I’m pretty anti capitalist and wish the whole system would fuck off but they’re not suing because of the lack of performance of their investment, they’re alleging that United didn’t give necessary information to investors

People forget that crashes are a debugging tool indicating an error. Silent errors can be much more dangerous. C and C++ in particular need to be careful not to overwrite random memory for example.

Yes the consequences for JS failures are less severe and so JS can get away with it, but a crash is a way to know your program isn’t doing what you thought it was, properly.

It just so happens that JS is used in contexts where nobody really cares, and errors aren’t a big deal, cheap and fast wins.

damn I wonder which white guy discovered those features in the Mongol population, crazy that they all missed them

I’ll acknowledge my comment was rude, you are expressing humility now that wasn’t present in your original assertive message. You hopefully have a better understanding now.

This misinformation about national debt that you unintentionally spread is used by conservatives around the world to deny people services

Some people when faced with an overly simple explanation doubt their own understanding and try to see why experts and academics say otherwise.

Others assume they know better than the experts and everyone is an idiot but them.

Maybe you know a lot about a topic, and see others choose one of those paths when questioning your area of expertise.

Which kind of person do you want to be?

One thing we overlook in ideological debates is that most forms of socialism and communism would have no use for advertising and marketing. Imagine all this effort going to productive endeavors and having an IRL adblock.

May my last online purchase be a beret.

While this is true, it’s not difficult to verify. You can inspect the network traffic through your router from that device and see whether it’s communicating more often or with larger data packets while you’re talking near but not to it.

That could be obfuscated with a powerful enough device that’s able to maintain the user profile locally and by sending the full profile each time, or by trickling the information out bit by bit as part of a regular heartbeat traffic, but that would require more expensive hardware and would eat up a lot more bandwidth.

Not impossible, but not undetectable either. I’m willing to bet that studies have been done.

Skepticism is good but without thinking through it, experimenting, or doing research to back it up it’s just paranoia. Conversely you could say my trust that others would have looked into it is naive.

wow I guess 2/3 of Democrats are now Trump supporters according to the people who have been bullying those that want Democrats to do better
