  • in 2026 you really have to ask an employer what they mean by object oriented programming in the interview. do they mean a methodology of organizing pure functional code into actors and message busses? do they mean imperitive code that's interacted with through generic interfaces as with python? or do they mean javascipt style OOP where you define classes to organize your imperitive code within a functional language without any concern for the generic interfaces this could hypothetically enable?

  • as in all authoritarian regimes it depends on how you look and where you are. keep your eyes up and your head high

  • ???

    A terror state is a state that controls its citizens through the use of terror. A terrorist state is a state that then inflects that terror out into the rest of the world in an act of expansionist imperialism. So... Yeah. It's internal. Because I was talking about internal use of terror to control a citzenry

  • the most active developers in both communities are frequently in both communities, and if they're not, they have a ton of respect for the developers in the other community. The "Neovim split the community" crowd who villifies the Neovim community seems to be a thread unique to people who first got involved in open source through Hackernews and are supremely confident that they know better about what's going on than people who are directly involved

  • Their evil is an expression of that they're all a bunch of losers who find relief from how much like losers they feel through petty displays of power

  • Ah! Thank you for the clarification. I'm glad you always know what's going on in the metafediverse

  • the lemmy nsfw admin had previously asked if anyone was willing to take ownership of the instance because it was too much mental overhead to moderate a space that could sometimes get dicey and be legally liable for what was hosted on the server. there were no takers. the fact that this admin has been silent leads me to believe that this was not an active choice and instead something away from the keyboard led to this, be that legal, personal, or mental concerns that took priority over something they already felt no one would take on based on previously asking

    See @ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone's better explanation of the situation here: https://piefed.blahaj.zone/comment/3354654

  • school funding coming from property tax

    EDIT: I fired that off quick while I was in the middle of something and failed to explain how this acts as a system of oppression and white supremacy. Schools in high income neighborhoods have better schools because they have more access to resources. Properties in good school zones have higher property values because families with the money to buy homes in those neighborhoods want their children to receive a good education. This creates a circular feedback loop in which people who already have access to more resources are more likely to receive a high quality education. The students from lower income school zones are not dumber. They are simply being strangled by a system that wants to gate them from achieving academic and financial success.

  • functionally, the global north's oligarchs all support eachother's agendas. Ukraine is nominally part of the global south based on economic pressures. largely, the liberal position of western europe is to stay out of it to avoid retaliation. this is, of course, a fallacy. russia is an aggressor. no one can be made safe by ignoring their threat and waiting for it to go away. the same can be said for the so called united states, china, and india. but largely europe doesn't want to intervene on the side of the colonized in a colonial war because europe benefits from colonialism more than it doesn't

  • especially when the purge is EXPLICITY about a hierarchical society pitting the working class against itself to enact the enforcement of the wealth hierarchy on itself

  • western libs are smarter than global consensus, bear in mind. really, what it is, is they'll say anything so long as the money keeps moving.

    the reality is of course that terrorism is any act that is intended to modify public behavior through widespread fear. here's some examples of terror states:

    • America
    • Russa
    • Israel
    • India
    • Iran

    i'm POSITIVE there's more, and i'd even be willing to hear arguments that every nation today is either a terror state or subservient to a terror state.

  • if you a communist, and you take a pro-russian stance, you're a fascist, not a communist

  • we're under quarantine. we are crikket. the rest of the galactic community saw what were up to and is putting us in the isolation void until they observe that we can act right

  • fair. it's been a simmering thing ever since white men landed in virginia. it's boiled over several times. i just meant we have to track DJT's fascist parallels to hitler not based on his second inauguration

  • don't think of that starting point as being January 20, 2025, think of it being in 2015 when djt announced his candidacy. fascism, like bolshevism, neoliberalism, anarchocapitalism, enlightened centrism, and anarchism is a street religion.

  • most any that you intsall firefox from the repos. it disables autoupdate which requires you install firefox from a downloaded file like an rpm, a deb, a snap, or a flatpak.

  • i can sympathize with if you're new to linux and you install firefox from the repo manager, that message can be scary
