Yeah, why doesn’t Israel just let the trucks waiting at the border in? I wager it is the same reason they stopped the flotilla.

I’ve used Godot a bit for hobby projects and I like it. I have only experimented with 2D games but it is the simplicity and flexibility of the scene system that really sets it apart for me, so that should carry over to 3D I imagine. I used Unity in the past (half a decade ago) and compared to that Godot feels more coherent as concepts just fit together in a way they didn’t in Unity. Once you understand scenes and how they communicate you can get pretty far. To achieve the same in Unity I had to learn of and understand more concepts to make it work. This may however also be colored by the fact that my learning Unity and learning programming overlapped so I didn’t have as much background knowledge back then.

As mentioned by another user it’s likely about the organization Palestine Action being designated a terrorist organization. This has caused about 700 arrests due to people protesting the designation of a group that never killed or hurt anyone as terrorists because they splashed some planes with red paint. Last time I heard an additional 60 protesters were arrested for supporting Palestine Action and officials said more arrests were likely coming.

Unless some politician had a recent shitstorm and no other politician was in hot water currently, I would probably ask who it was they wouldn’t vote for because I would have no clue. The same would apply if instead of a single person, it was about a single party, unless an especially bad one had popped up that election, I simply wouldn’t know which party they were talking about. I don’t even think I’d be suspicious, I’d be too busy being confused or curious.

For context, we currently have more than a dozen parties represented in government and half a dozen that didn’t get enough votes this time around, but are big enough to be recognizable and sometimes getting representatives in government.

Yeah this impromptu AMA has been quite an interesting read

It’s like a clicker game but with scrolling and depression. I’ve attempted to get all the way through it multiple times, but never succeeded.

I got an education in software engineering, not computer science, and my experience is in line yours. I had a few courses about fundamental computer science concepts but most of my education was in learning a little about many different areas of software engineering, specializing in a few. Most of the education involved working as part of a software team, using tools of the trade, applying common design patterns and that sort of stuff, even when courses weren’t explicitly about that.

I would never call myself a computer scientist, I don’t have the education for it, I however immediately had a software engineering job ready after graduating and felt prepared for it from day one.

I love what computer scientists do within the theoretical domain because it eventually seeps into mainstream languages and tools, in a way I benefit from. I’m just not involved with it myself, beyond when it reaches practical application.

Which accounts are those? I haven’t heard of any accounts that aren’t separated by at least a few decades, so I’m unsure if I’ve missed earlier accounts or if I misunderstood what you meant with contemporary with him.

Nah, this is just a dig at the Catholic Church’s practice of moving priests to a new area when their child molestation becomes a problem for the church.

Danish as well

Yeah, I was incredulous when I first heard of the pledge being recited in schools. I couldn’t believe how often it was recited or how common the practice was. Surely it would be only a couple of times a year like the anthem was for me, I thought. Or only nationalistic private schools would do do it at the frequency I was told about.

Selling them for a negative price I guess?

I were unfortunate enough to get an assignment about sending messages to ServiceNow through a REST interface. The company had a team that managed ServiceNow, so I set up a meeting with one of the people there to get read access to the test environment so I could confirm that it worked. The person invited, then invited a coworker who in turn invited the manager of their department. During the meeting we got established how little they wanted my team to do anything that could affect the system due to how easy it was to make mistakes that took weeks or months to fix, how complicated it was and how many years it took to be proficient in. The whole thing was basically a lecture on how unequiped our team was to manage their system and how they didn’t want us to break it with changes we weren’t planning on making anyway. It took a few meetings after that to get credentials and when I got them I got admin access for some reason. That experience left me wondering why ServiceNow was even being used as it sounded like a liability more than anything else.

Sounds great for the kid that just lost their mother and now has an absent father escaping through work. Definitely a healthy way to process emotions that won’t risk lasting damage. /s

An example from work a few weeks ago. I fixed some vibe coded UI code that had made it to prod. The layout of the UI was basically just meant to be an easy overview of information relevant to an item. The LLM had done everything right except it assumed a weird mix of tailwind and bootstrap, mixing and matching css classes from both. After I implemented the classes myself it went from a single column view to grids and nested grids grouping the data intuitively. I talked with the dev who implemented it, and basically it was just something quickly cobbled together with AI until it was passable. The AI had added a lot of extra that served no function and that didn’t conform to a single css framework, but looked like it could. For months noone questioned it despite talk about that part of the UI needing a facelift.

I don’t know how representative it is, but about half the time I’m thoroughly confused about a piece of code and why it was written the way it was, the answer has turned out to be AI. And unlike when a developer wrote it, there rarely is any reason to have written it the weird way.

I switched to lemmy about two years ago and went almost cold turkey. There was one community on reddit that I returned to a couple of times in the first few weeks, but even that stopped as it just wasn’t worth it. I have been to reddit a few times since, but only when trying to solve a problem and reddit comes up as a search result, and only after trying other sources first.

Greta is one of four activists that have been sent home. According to Israel only those four signed the papers neededfor it and the rest are expected to be sent home after a court have ruled they can. Basically the remaining 8 activists reportedly chose not to give Israel the easy way of getting rid of them. I don’t have any English news sources though, as I read it in a newspaper in my native language.

To be fair, that was also what I was thinking, it wasn’t until the “sis” part was mentioned that it dawned on me.

Damming allegations against NBC journalist revealed on lemmy! /j

Out of curiosity I checked out the inverse article and to my great surprise (/s) it didn’t start by mentioning israely dehumanization of palestinians. It sid however mention someone’s opinion that dehumanization was ignored when palestinians did it.
