But the billionaires are doing great though, so what’s the issue? /s
When a colossal part of the population suffers from a whole plethora of societal issues, most of which either go ignored, or are actively being made worse by local government, no fucking surprise people want to end it
Prime example of “fuck you, i got mine”
During my first two semesters i’ve genuinely had to buy 300$+ bundles of books, literally only because the online single-use code was conveniently placed under the wrapper, with no other way to obtain one
A considerable majority of gen-x people I know have higher no education, just because throwing themselves into the workforce was easier for them. If they do have any, it was practically free too. So realistically, no surprise there
I get nightmares almost every day so i think i’m good. I don’t wanna see that again
That is unbelievably depressing. Once housing became a collectible, rather than a life necessity, it was all over. Not to mention that for some fucking reason, private businesses are allowed to buy residential property
When I graduated from university in 2020, my classmates still zipped the entire project and dated it with “final”, “final(2)”, and “final-forrealnow”. This is extra sad, because they did this in a class, where we were taught version control. Out of the 50-something people in my lab for that class, maybe like 3 people outside of me didn’t express hatred for it
Username checks out
The PHP I’ve once used is probably not even remotely close to the PHP people use today. The issue is, once you lose the trust and confidence, it’s hard to gain it back. All the people who consistently shit on PHP have also probably not tried it in a very considerable amount of time
That was precisely the reason. I prefer strongly typed languages languages, so it just felt gross to write that
2, but I’m incredibly embarrassed to say that I’ve had to do 9 before
They updated to a version that included a patch for that exploit, however it doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things, because they’re still on 22.x, support for which has already been terminated
Not only that, but with JS you by definition have no code obfuscation. Minifying it just saves some bandwidth
Production errors at their finest
Debugging Typescript without proper tools, in a nutshell. The original file might have 72 lines, but the transpiled JS file it’s debugging is like 3 times that many
Can’t really blame them for stability tbh. Not only lemmy is experiencing a massive influx of new users trying to do things, but it’s also user-hosted, without a real monetization strategy. I’m impressed it’s as good as it is, and is still trying to become better
Yeah, trickling down from billionaires to millionaires.
