Worst UI Any% Speedrun
  • Tapping a notification doesn't take me to the message, but rather to the DMs list, where the app promply gets stuck, so I have to restart it.

    It's not only horrible, it's straight up buggy. What I don't understand is why they wanted to make their app a shitty Facebook Messenger clone in the first place.

  • Hardware security key options?
  • I also recommend Nitrokey. I have a Nitrokey Pro 2 and a Nitrokey 3 NFC and they both work well. Linux support is very good, and they also have good documentation on how to do most stuff you might want to do. +1 for being open-source as well.

  • Merry Christmas from the LabPlot team! 🎅 🎄
  • Shouldn't the second line be r2y = ln(x/m - sa)?

  • Advent of code starts in less than 12 hours!
  • So, are you regretting it?

  • You can use emojis as credentials
  • Internet access? Never. LAN access though is a different story altogether...

  • [How is your day going?] 1st September
  • Yes, they also help a lot, especially with swelling and inflammation.

  • I hate mosquitoes with a passion. I'm allergic to mosquito bites so it's so dreadful to even be in their presence.

    E: Hot water can help with the itching, but take care not to burn yourself.

  • Algebra in school is like a compiler with shitty type inference: you rarely have to write type annotations and you can easily end up with impossible states.
  • I am lucky enough to have received an above-average education, in maths at least. It's definetly not the norm in Romania, especially in the countryside, and I could talk a lot more about the various issues that relate to this, but that's a bit beside the point.

    I'm not really familiar with the education systems of the rest of the world, much less with their maths curricula, but I think that we generally cover more material in a shorter amount of time (which is not really a good thing, in my opinion, but it is what it is).

    There was a lot of talk in the media a couple of years back about how our country performs poorly in the PISA tests, so our education is worse overall than the rest of the world. I can't really research the exact numbers right now, but I will try when I get the chance.

    I would attribute the exhaustiveness mostly to my teachers. The books I used most were reasonably exhaustive in terms of range and domain definitions, but in all honesty I've also seen many books that were atrocious in this regard. Teachers here have quite a lot of freedom when it comes to details like these, so as long as they cover all the material, no one (in the administration) really cares about how they do it.

  • Algebra in school is like a compiler with shitty type inference: you rarely have to write type annotations and you can easily end up with impossible states.
  • My experience with math class has been quite different. Most exercises specify the domain of the equations, and I've been taught to always work out the set of possible solutions (when it's non-obvious) before solving an equation, though I usually forget to do this and still end up with impossible states...

  • Open source and privacy respecting website builders?
  • Depending on your use-case, maybe a static site generator could work for you? Something like Jekyll or Hugo. Both can be hosted for free on Github Pages (and I think Gitlab has something similar). While you still need some technical know-how in order to set it up, you can write your content in Markdown, which is a lot easier to write than HTML, and there are a lot of themes available out there you can use, so no need for CSS.

  • I use NixOS with single-partition btrfs on both my laptop and my desktop and have never had this happen. Curious...

  • Thanks, I might give it a try! For now I'm using this theme. It looks quite nice and it also works for gtk4/libadwaita.

  • [i3] tokyo night
  • Which GTK theme is that?

  • Site-uri ale guvernului au fost hackuite
  • InstituÈ›iile publice române nu par să fi auzit de nebunia asta nouă numită TLS...

    Remember this?

  • Smaller instances when lemmy.world and lemmy.ml get DDOS'd
  • What happened to vlemmy? I've noticed it's been down for a while but I haven't managed to find out why...

  • Why don't more distributions have something like the AUR when it's the main reason why so many people use Arch Linux?
  • I've been on NixOS for about a week now and I can say I've got access to pretty much all of the packages I was using on Arch just from nixpkgs. I even found it quite easy to package stuff myself!
