He would often include his initials in variable names
Code signing!
They expand if they have matter falling into them.
I think they did a good job of writing a neutral comparison. Based on what it said, I think there's no reason for me to stop using VS Code right now, but I'll keep an eye on Theia and reconsider it my needs change.
Better tools such as...?
I'm gonna need a source for those claims.
I was in favor of ranked choice voting until Trump came out against it. Now I'm even more in favor of it.
No. And it's a boon to "people" like the Trump regime.
Was it Dawkins? I half think his goal in life is to make atheists look like assholes.
We don't. That's just the normal way most people pronounce numbers with a decimal point. The big exception is prices: $1.32 is often pronounced "one thirty two".
There's nothing "alt" about the party that controls all three branches of the federal government. They're just the right.
How about a man who is being mourned by about a billion people?
Ah yes, the Sesame Street to MAGA pipeline.
Luigi all the Andrew Tates of the world, then. Nothing of value would be lost.
(I'd say it should be done through the legal system, but I live in the US, and laws are apparently only for attacking minorities and enemies of the regime now.)
Back when media for kids consisted mainly of broadcast TV shows and books. It's not some mythical past; it's my childhood.
It is when that kid becomes someone else's problem to deal with.
I agree everyone on the left should be working together, but that's not what "crossing the aisle" means.
If there's an actual war, I can't see Democrats having any really power at the national level until it's over anyway.
I don't want people who will cross the aisle. I want people who will treat the fascists like the existential threat they are.
I'm disappointed the pig wasn't shot in the face.
Nazi Germany didn't have a shitload of nuclear weapons.

Bug: Incorrect markdown rendering
I've mainly seen this with superscript notation not being recognized, but I assume there are other differences between Lemmy markdown and what Boost uses.

Is Reddit even trying anymore?
I'm trying not to read too much into the fact that Reddit is down right now, but I've noticed pages have been increasingly slow to load lately, and I get a lot of messages about server errors even just voting on comments. It seems like they're barely even keeping the lights on. Anyone else notice the same thing?

What's the least shady political organization I can donate to in the US?
I still get tons of political calls, texts, and emails from donations I made around 2016 and 2020. Is there any organization I can use to donate money that won't harass me in the future or sell my data to someone else who will?
(I got a text soliciting a political donation while I was typing this question!)

Gboard: Why do I get "didn't" when I swipe "don't"?
When I swipe "don't" in Gboard, at least 30% of the time it decides I mean "didn't". I just tested it, and the accuracy was shockingly bad. I'd understand if the strokes were very similar, but "didn't" has a whole extra stroke in it compared to "don't". WTF, Google?

How is Reddit's current mobile site so bad?
When you try to edit a Reddit comment in their mobile web app, it deletes all line breaks from your comment so you have to remember to manually put them back before submitting.
The other big issue I have is that when you type in and edited comment, it will omit spaces between words at random. JFC, there's no reason to use anything but a vanilla HTML input element (because only markdown formatting is supported), but they somehow fucked up basic text input anyway!
My last little gripe is that nothing in the interface tells you that markdown is supported, which is extra dumb because the desktop interface tries so hard to hide the fact that markdown even exists.
(And yes, there are a host of other annoyances, but I'm trying to limit my criticisms to things that can only be explained by incompetence.)
