That’s true. I suppose this shows more what proportion of respondents are hobbyists rather than what proportion of hobbyists use go. Obvious oversight on my part.

I think it is kind of a bummer that there is such low use among hobbyists and learners. I believe some of Go’s greatest strengths are its clarity and simplicity. It is one of the better languages for both learners and hobbyists. I’m not saying there aren’t other good one’s, but languages with fewer paths to a single end are great for learners not to get stuck bikeshedding their projects.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are the fastest moving objects with some mass in everyday life?
202·5 days agoTo include the neutrino in a conversation about things “with some mass” borders on silly. But hey, factually correct and all that. May as well include electrons.

Though you’re correct, Merriam Webster makes it seem that “hung” is fine here too.
I actually dig a slightly coy lead up and I’m good with the implication of sex, or just the very beginning. But then you can just cut to the next scene; I know how it works.
I really hate sex scenes that are complete with fake as pounding and moaning; get that outta here. I don’t mind nudity in the least though.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some good media that un-glorify conflict?
9·8 days agoI think most even slightly accurate war movies don’t really glorify the war bit. Two recommendations.
There is a film A24 distributed last year called Warfare that follows a very accurate telling of a single operation of a platoon in Ramadi. It is pretty grim, but really gives a sense of just how brutal it can be for a small group. A lot of movies show slaughter at scale, like beaches of Normandy. That is always fascinating and dark too, but it slightly diminishes the struggle of the individuals. This does not.
Another recommendation is Tora! Tora! Tora!; an absolute classic from 1970. This movie shows you many of the mistakes and oversights, big and small that led to the Pearl Harbor attack being so crippling. Aside from huge ship and air guns there aren’t many guns. I think many people would enjoy it at the moment because it shows the USA on the rout.

I think most communication errors are on behalf of the speaker, so that’s on me. Rereading, I can see how it would come off that way, but it wasn’t intended.
There are only a few communities where the sum total of several instances of saving a few keystrokes would be appreciated candidly. A bunch of nerds talking about code sharing are the vim golfers of the world.
Somebody should shop in Lisan al-Gaib from the DUNE poster with the cloak blowing in the wind.
I was being completely genuine. That was just pure gratitude.
Thank you. I knew there was a better way. At first I just put code_review@programming.dev, which of course wanted to be a
mailto:. This is the kind of optimization I seek. You save us 2 keystrokes, and this is the sort of community that appreciates that.
There is a community /c/code_review@programming.dev. It isn’t busy, but it should be. But posting stuff here will get far more eyes.
Okay, fair enough. When you said, “Unfortunately when he does that, it’s about names of the buildings” I sort of misread that as a slight more generally, but I understand better now. Anyway, I find myself asking myself the following.
What are they to do, beyond organizing the biggest upset in history? Seriously, very little of what the democrat caucus is doing in either house is being even discussed, let alone brought for voting. No doubt heads should be rolling, but there just isn’t a feature in our broken ass government for that to happen until the adults have the conn again.
Yeah, that’s all Senator Sanders has contributed in nearly 5 decades of public service, civil architecture. And he certainly isn’t doing anything else currently.
I get the frustration, but there are very few congress members that have worked for the people harder and many others to which directing one’s ire would make more sense.
He is doing a lot of organizing and speaking without hesitation. I’m not sure what you feel he should be doing. His caucus doesn’t currently have much power.








SO has a pretty great standard for communication. I known it can be frustrating if you don’t know the rules at first, but if one asks a clear question, states what they have attempted, and provides a minimal reproducible example, with code as text not an image, the support is pretty damned good.
The vpn block is probably trying to diminish what they can of bot scraping, to salvage what’s left of their husk of relevance.
