So many things.

• queer phobic. I'm not queer but many of my friends are. I don't need that negativity in my life.
• smoker. Maybe a pass if they are actively trying to quit. Maybe. Most active smokers I've known have kind of been assholes about it, though.
• littering. Sometimes combined with the above when smokers throw their butts on the ground
• being a jerk about people having healthy hobbies. Like, just let someone enjoy some video games or bird watching or whatever. I can't with people who are like "omg that's so childish you still [play games/read fiction/go to the zoo/whatever]?".
• being anti-consent. I've met a few women who are like "just do stuff and I'll tell you if I don't like it" and I'm like lady there's some "stuff" that can be done that by the time it's happening , the damage is done. Let's just have a conversation about what we like and what our boundaries are.

Yeah but that's like using an entire gasoline powered car to play a CD.

Competent product guy should be able to learn some simpler tools like Google sheets.

I mean if it's easy you can probably script it with some other tool.

"I have a list of IDs and need to make them links to our internal tool's pages" is easy and doesn't need AI. That's something a product guy was struggling with and I solved in like 30 seconds with a Google sheet and concatenation

I assume it's because different instances are on different domains, so a naive link won't take you to your instance if it's some other one. Like on on ttrpg.network and you're on lemmy.world. for me the link points to https://ttrpg.network/c/[email protected]

You could try to parse the link and figure out if it's a Lemmy destination and replace it with your instance, but how would you know? That sounds error prone.

You could have a special syntax for linking to other instances, but that's what the exclamation point thing is.

You could maybe have each lemmy server check if you're signed in somewhere else and redirect you, but that also seems error prone. What if you're signed into two different ones?

I don't work on Lemmy so this is guesswork.

Does that still do the sticky keys thing on windows? We used to turn that on so it would make noises in like high school, because we were a bunch of gremlins.

I remember one time when I was a youth trying to fix my dad's computer, he tried to wake it with the space bar. The screen came on and that space bar cancelled some long running operation. Woops.

Control is easier for me to hit because it's the corner of the keyboard.

Space bar is "accept" in many interfaces. If the screen was off but not locked, and a dialog box was focused, hitting space will submit that in some OS.

Control, on the other hand, won't.

Gotta link it with the exclamation point for people on other instances [email protected]

4-12 weeks of maternity leave is depressingly low. 2-4 weeks of paternity is insultingly low.

People should be given a year. Paid. It's really impactful for the child and family.

also it's not like Republican economic policies actually support single income households where someone can stay home.

They also generally oppose labor rights that would make 90 hour work weeks illegal.

Developer I used to work with had a policy where if anyone said "just do something", they were now the sole person responsible for implementing it.

"Just redo the front end in react". "Cool. Thanks for volunteering"

I dislike this because some people are saying that shit as jokes but some people are going to take it seriously. I can already imagine the "farms aren't real" conspiracy nutjobs

I have no interest in the genre so I forgot this even existed.

I use jetbrains' PyCharm. Work paid for it. It does the things I want it to do (works with docker, git integration, local history, syntax highlighting for every language I use, refactor:rename and move, safe delete, find usages,.find declaration, view library code, database integration, other stuff I'm forgetting)

I really would like conservatives to just... Stop. Just go outside. Get off Facebook. Stop wasting so much time being mad about human sexuality and gender.

Eternals probably would have been better as a tv show. Too many characters introduced too quickly for a movie.

I honestly don't remember the details very clearly. It ends badly for the guy in a weird way. I think it was mostly played straight as "this 15 year old girl totally wants to fuck this older man". I think she may have been kidnapped too?

It's been a while. I don't remember taking anything from that plot beat other than ick.

Snow Crash is a near future tech dystopia where corporations run most of the world, and people hang out in the meta verse - a virtual space. It's where assholes like Facebook got the idea from, despite snow crash being a dystopia.

The main plot is about some sort of sickness that's afflicting tech people. There's a lot more detail I don't remember.

A supporting character is a cool 15 year old that for some reason the author sexualizes and has a sex scene with her. He could've just made her like 20 but nope.

"it's technically legal" is perhaps the flimsiest defense. Doesn't address if it's a good idea or not.
