Great article, thank you for sharing.

It is doable for many young professionals who work office jobs out of college, do not have dependents, and live with a roommate for a few years while getting established in their careers, finding a spouse, and then moving out to the suburbs.
This is just about possible in NYC if you 1) work in a high-rise by a station 2) commute during peak times with frequent trains 3) live in a high-rise by a station.
For example: Downtown Brooklyn or Exchange Place high-rise <=> WTC.
The other option would be to live within walking distance. A <20 minute walking distance to a downtown or midtown office is reasonable.

Swift was developed by a lot of former C++ committee members, and in C++ circles they’ve been advocating for it as a “successor language” for quite some time.
This could definitely be confusing if you don’t have that context, but making Swift useful for this kind of project has been an explicit goal of the Swift developers for years.
I don’t know the details of the situation in Poland, but Poland does have an 87% home ownership rate.

There’s also a whole industry of ex-Googlers reimplementing Google tooling as SaaS services to sell to other ex-Googlers at other companies.
There’s even a lookup table: https://github.com/jhuangtw/xg2xg
(some of those are open source projects, some are SaaS services)
The way the article makes it sound is, if individual employees download OracleJDK while on the company network, and use it for small personal scripts or automation, then that might be enough to trigger Oracle to act.
If your company is large enough, then enough employees may have done that to make you a reasonable target for litigation if you don’t work something out with Oracle. And Oracle is an expert at litigation.
I think that the best defense for a large company would be to IP block all Oracle domains and periodically scan employee laptops for any Oracle products (especially JDK and VirtualBox guest additions) and delete them.
You really have to treat anything that Oracle touches as malware if you want to protect yourself.
I know for sure that there is a mastodon client for Emacs, but of course that uses a different protocol and wouldn’t work for lemmy: https://codeberg.org/martianh/mastodon.el
I just gave PlantUML + the C4 Plugin a try and generally liked it, thank you for the rec!
It seems like a good tool although it inherits all the joys and pains of automatic graph layout.
I think I’ll keep it in my arsenal for detailed diagrams that can handle being a little aesthetically wonky.
I hadn’t heard of C4 before and it seems like a solid idea.
My spiciest anime hot take is that the Netflix adaption of Death Note was actually pretty good.
The problem was that anyone who liked the anime would hate it and vice versa, so it had no audience.
But if you disliked the anime, then I highly recommend checking out the Netflix adaption.
It answers the question “what if Light were cringe”.
Today, I wanted to make a module for my AwesomeWM status bar
It’s great when simple tools let you extend them like this. It may be kinda hacky sometimes but oftentimes a small, tightly-scoped extension that you develop for yourself can give you a lot of value.
Canonically, the True Power (of the Dark One) was granted only to those who served him, whereas the One Power was open to all channelers. This makes a “One Power” subscription very funny to me.
No matter where you go, everyone’s connected.
+1. The joy of camping (for me) is that your experience is directly related to your preparation. You plan your location, activities, meals, sleeping arrangements, and companions, doing all of the research and investment up front to make each of those work well, taking into account weather and conditions, and then you get to enjoy a trip where everything goes well with people you care about, with the satisfaction that the experience that you are having is the direct result of your actions.
Of course, the pain of camping is that any and all of the above can go wrong, and then, indeed, it’s probably gonna suck.
My favorite has always been crunch bars. So good.
Coffee crisps and ketchup chips are the two things I always buy when I’m in Canada. I wish we had them in the States.
I never quite got over how the Aiel look Irish, have fantasy-Arab/Berber culture, and eat Native American food. And I read the entire series!
Fair enough. I think it’s okay if you’ve experienced a place, given it a shot, decided it wasn’t for you, and moved away.
One thing I’ve noticed in NYC however, is how many people have an uninformed and strong default opinion that anywhere besides the west or east coast in unlivable, and that bothers me.
Your comment is reasonable, but a lot of the comments to this post reflect that same caustic attitude and it saddens me.
I’ve always thought it was weird how there are two media properties involving genderless gem people.
