  • Ouais mais être galant ne résout pas vraiment le problème en fait.

    Ce que je vais dire est très controversé, mais en disant "étudiantes et étudiants" au lieu de "étudiants et étudiantes", on échange le masculinisme pour du féminisme. Je ne pense pas qu'il y en ait un qui soit mieux que l'autre très honnêtement.

    Je suis assez frustré qu'on n'ait pas un "they" ou "them" en français.

    Si on veut vraiment l'égalité des genres, il faudrait soit tout rapporter au masculin actuel, ou tout rapporter au féminin actuel - puis enfin supprimer le genre complètement. Disons qu'on rapporte tout au masculin actuel parce que les mots sont plus courts au masculin.

    ça impliquerait de ne plus dire "je suis sorti avec elle" mais "je suis sorti avec lui", peu importe si on parle d'un mec ou d'une nana.

    Le souci c'est qu'on reste malgré tout attaché au genre. Si on dit "lui" pour une femme devant elle, il est fort probable que la femme s'indigne. De même, si on dit "elle" pour un homme, il est tout aussi probable qu'il s'indigne.

    Je pense que tant qu'on aura cette nécessité de s'identifier comme homme ou femme il y aura du sexisme.

  • Pour ndlr je prononce "Note de Rédaction", "Note de la Rédaction" ou juste "N D L R" Pour Mme je prononce "Madame"

    Pour étudiant·e·s si je dis "étudiants et étudiantes" je privilégie le masculin, si je dis "étudiantes et étudiants" je privilégie le féminin.. mais si je prononce "étudiants" en utilisant le masculin à valeur de neutre, on peut me reprocher de privilégier le masculin.

    D'où ma question : comment prononcez-vous le point médian ?

  • When I first got daily access to internet (back in 2009), I got curious about how programs are built. Like, if I wanted to make my own application, what should I do?

    I googled something along that direction and it linked me to a famous french website for learning programming (site du zéro) where I learnt C language.

    After the course I made a 2D Snake game with SDL2. How naive was I to think I could write it in one go without testing anything in between! I scrapped the 1st attempt because it was a disaster and randomly inserting/removing * was not helping.

    I started again from scratch, testing in smaller steps, and I really liked it. After a couple of weeks I had my Snake game working! I was so proud of it that I showed it to my mom. I do not have the source files anymore but I still have the binary somewhere

    Afterwards I sticked with it and continued programming - I was back in school without much access to internet so I programmed on my TI-83+ instead. Eventually I pursued computer science studies then a PhD.. It got me hooked real good.

  • La méditation ! 10-15 minutes par jour. C'est presque nécessaire pour moi car sans ça je me retrouve vite la tête dans le guidon à ne jamais vraiment m'occuper des émotions que je ressens. Les 15 min de méditation me donnent un temps pour analyser ce qui s'est passé dans la journée et trouver une paix intérieure

  • About your specific example I find the Rust code to be much simpler to understand than your equivalent Golang code..

    To understand the Rust code I just have to understand each case. 0..1 returns false. Ok. 2..n returns true iff no divider was found between 2 and n-1. Ok the function is primality test

    The Golang code is much harder. I do not take into account the division by 2 because its not part of the original Rust code.

    A for loop starting at 2 that look for divisors. Then the return value > 1. Why is it OK to just return value > 1? Oh that's because the loop did not return. Why did it not? Either no dividor was found or we did not get into the loop at all. If value > 1 we have the guarantee the loop was executed so it's really a primal number. If value <= 1 it is either 0 or 1 which are not primal. Ok, so we return value > 1.

    I think people dislike Rust because it has a lot of functional languages constructs and people are not used to code in functional languages.

    Whatever you fight in Rust you end up saving time by avoiding runtime bugs that would have plagued your productivity anyway. I'd much rather have a language with a hard entry but with solid and maintainable code rather than fast-written spaghetti that no one knows what it is supposed to do 2 years after.

  • I love that software. It's so simple - no need for much clicking you can do a lot with just the keyboard.

    I love particularly how there is no bloatness. Creating a new task is as simple as pressing ctrl+a (or shift+a), typing the name and pressing enter. Creating a subtask is just pressing 'a' on the task and type the name.

    There is jira integration so I can import my jira tickets and make my own local subdivision in smaller tasks that do not need to be thoroughly described or shared. The status of the jira tickets can be updated from the app directly

    There is a pomodoro plugin that works well minor some bugs (don't ever choose "close" when prompted to skip the break or go back to work)

    Wonder what did I do last week for writing a summary? Just look at the history in the app

    I really love it and can only recommend it for personal planning

  • Yes, getting into a new project is hard. Even when you do know the languages and frameworks it's still hard because you have to get into the mini ecosystem that the developers of that project built. In companies there is usually an expected amount of time (days? weeks? Months? Varies on the project) where a new developer is not really expected to do anything major, just getting used to the project.

    I do not know if you are professional or hobbyist. But coding takes a lot of time, a lot of it is spent on just figuring out how you will code this or that feature ; then another bunch of time is spent debugging ; and finally, yet another bunch of time is spent integrating your new feature. That's why it's a whole job, and that's also why you need a ton of free time to do this as a hobbyist.

    But the good news is that once you spent that upfront time to get into the project, you can code more efficiently (that is, get right to the features you want to make) and you will also spend a little bit less time getting into other projects because although projects are different, there is always some level of organization that remains similar. The more advanced you become, the quicker you can get into a "production" state where you can code right away thanks to spending less time figuring out how things work.

  • This is such a basic functionality. It does not deserve advertisements, it should have been there from the start.

    Are we supposed to cheer?

  • The Christian Bible’s Matthew 24 had a prophecy that is about to become historical-fact, in the coming decade.

    Here’s a decent version of it:

    https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=matt+24&version=AMPC

    That bit around verses 15-20 is the pertinent area.

    Simply wait 1 decade, and see: if Israel still exists, as a country, in 2033, I’ll eat a hat.

    The nice thing about prophecies is that they can never be proven to be false. Indeed, one would have to examine the future to prove it wrong. Which is either impossible or unrealistic.

    Me too I can make a ton of prophecies and claim they will be eventually right. I will never be wrong.

    Let's see. Let me prophesize that:

    • The US will cease to exist
    • We will encounter aliens
    • See where you are living right now? Eventually, it will be filled with lava.
    • See where you are living right now? Eventually, it will be flooded with water.
    • A giant comet populated with nyan cats will crash on Earth

    However, you can be sure that in 2033 I will come back in this thread and have you eat a hat. Marking the date and the link in my calendar. If lemmy is still alive, that is

  • They are not making them more efficient. They are studying how to make them more efficient. It's a really big difference because I am not yet ready to place my life in the hands of a CNN-based AI

  • Yeah exactly. Here follows some spoiler for those who have never played Dark Souls

    The bottom line is that I think you need to have someone telling you where not to go to really enjoy Dark souls. Because its not obvious whether you die because of your incompetence or just because you were not supposed to be there right now. I wouldn't say its bad design though - but it's not for everyone for sure

  • I used to dislike dark souls. Recently I tried it again - I struggled but I finally got the hang of it!

    I think the hardest is to know what to do. I figured out I was struggling because I kept going in zones I was not expected to go yet.

    Also it's such a big shift compared to what I was used to. You have to wait for the right opportunity to attack rather than going in there and relying on reflexes.
