  • You absolutely can ask it for code you plan to use as long as you treat chatgpt like a beginner dev. Give it a small, very simple, self contained task and test it thoroughly.

    Also, you can write unit tests while being quite unfamiliar with the syntax. For example, you could write a unit test for a function which utilizes a switch statement, without using a switch statement to test it. There's a whole sect of "test driven development" where this kind of development would probably work pretty well.

    I'll agree that if you can't test a piece of code, you have no business writing in the language in a professional capacity.

  • Congratulations on learning that words have no intrinsic meaning, and the dictionary is constantly changing. Prescriptive linguistics is a hopeless battle.

  • Dust is largely made of skin cells and fibers from our clothes and furniture. Since our clothes and furniture are containing more and more plastics and synthetics, I'd wager that our dust is noticeably different now than it was 30 years ago.

  • People who are annoyed by types have never had to spend weeks of their life hunting for a missing property on an object.

    Compilation errors are so much more preferable than finding out the same error at runtime.

  • I don't know what the fuck you're talking about. I've never experienced this before in my entire life. Clearly you need to get out more /s

    I've learned that those types of people it's often better to avoid conversations as much as possible, and change the subject as often as needed to avoid the cyclical debates.

  • There's at least one subreddit devoted to women getting raped by tentacle monsters. https://www.reddit.com/r/Tentai/comments/kk9pjm/nice_comic/

    Yes, I understand that's not mainstream anymore, fortunately it looks like they have been moderating the major subs very well to remove this kind of stuff. But I distinctly remember browsing /r/all before the NSFW content was removed and frequently coming across stuff like this. Like ten years ago it definitely was more mainstream, literally every other piece of hentai that I came across was pretty disgusting.

    I also remember that there was degenerate irl porn mixed in with that feed, so I'm not saying that it was any better. I'm just saying that there definitely is plenty of fucked up hentai. I'm also not saying that hentai is "worse" than actual rape and human trafficking. But I do think that the psychological effect on the consumer and providers of that type of content is massively downplayed.

  • I'm not really into hentai, but I've seen some extremely "questionable" content. Just in the handful I've seen there were often themes of coercion, rape, and pain. The women were usually drawn incredibly young, and often look prepubescent.

    Just because there is no "victim" doesn't mean it's all good wholesome content. It gets away with some really degenerate shit by hiding under the guise of its "it's just drawings".

    I understand there are subgenres that can be better in this regard, but there are also genres which are much much worse.

  • Back in the day it was passed around as a "found" tape of a scrapped outreach program. It was right on the edge of people making "authentic" looking videos, so it caught a lot of people off guard. It made it onto my local news website.

  • r/RedditAlternatives doesn't like a Reddit Alternative

    Jump

  • It's very akin to reddit ~10 years ago. Grammar nazis, "um actually" and pedantic debates are everywhere. You just have to not engage and consistently remember the other guy is probably a sweaty nerd who cares way more than you do.

  • Modern consumer logic

    Jump

  • Please explain? After doing some quick googling, it looks like my interpretation is pretty accurate. But again this could be due to localized results. I'm not going to pretend all English speakers use the same words for the same things.

    You could drop the hostility though.

  • Cool story. I don't know a single person in my area with a letterbox let alone a locking one. It's just not something we have in the more rural areas.

    Unless this is a language thing. To me, a letterbox is generally attached to a house, often it's just a slot on the front door. And a mailbox is on a post near the street (and generally they do not lock)

  • Modern consumer logic

    Jump

  • It's one of those opportunity crimes where the easiest victim generally picked. It usually comes down to just two things:

    • How many people see your porch

    • How easy is it to walk up and walk away?

    You'd be surprised how much of a deterrent a mild inconvenience is. You'll get significantly fewer packages that walk off if you live on a big hill, or have a bunch of steps, where it's mildly inconvenient for someone to walk up.

  • I am absolutely sad when I get a bag of broken chips. And it definitely works you can test it yourself with some ziplock bags. There most likely is some shrinkflation hidden in that air, but the majority of it probably is playing an important part for people like me who love their chips but hate the crumbs.

  • I'm always amazed how little space it takes to store huge amounts of plain text. Especially when it's compressed. That old saying "a picture is worth a thousand words" is off by a few orders of magnitude.

  • I don't know why you're being down voted. As a Spanish speaker, it's a definite limitation of the language. Where is the penis on a pen, or the vagina on a pencil? Not everything needs a gender, even if you take a firm stance on the existence of non-binary people.

    Jump

  • Don't ask don't tell failed because the stigma of being different forces you into silence and trying to conform.

    Do I want to hear if you're a "top" or a "power bottom"? No. I don't want to hear about anyone's bedroom preferences.

    That doesn't mean that I want you to never talk about your significant other, regardless of their gender.

    You can separate bedroom preferences from love preference, and the inability to do so speaks pretty loudly about how you view your own relationships.
