I think I’m starting to get back into beehaw, so 👋 it’s been a crazy several years…I’ve been diagnosed with clinical depression and now I’m better so that’s good overall

Hexorg@beehaw.orgto Beehaw Support@beehaw.org•Beehaw on Lemmy: The long-term conundrum of staying here14·2 years agoAlternatives or not, I think it’d be very beneficial to document concept of operation that you want. That way you can either take pieces of these conops and tell lemmy devs what you want, or if you have your own project this will be its conops and you can guide developers towards features you need.

Hexorg@beehaw.orgto Socialism@beehaw.org•Star Trek Gave Us a Utopian Vision of an Egalitarian, Postcapitalist FutureEnglish1·2 years agoTo be fair even in trek - there’s a world war 3 that’s driven by pure greed before humanity decides it’s enough. And the climax of the greed and that war starts in 2026… so we might be on the course to the utopia … but not before suffering some more.
Hexorg@beehaw.orgto Environment@beehaw.org•'Gigantic’ power of meat industry blocking green alternatives, study finds3·2 years agoI agree with everything you said, but also it’d be super interesting to cancel the factory farming subsidies and see whole foods flourish. Theoretically this would raise the cost of burgers and lower the cost of vegetables and other healthy products.
I agree it’ll never happen, but it would probably move US closer to European diets.
Certainly - and there still are those channels that we all love for their dedication. But there are a lot more mediocre channels too
You bring a great point I hadn’t considered before. Only people with passion for something will do it for free while many more people with so that for cash. Though it’s interesting to see that cash doesn’t make passionate people’s content better it just makes more mediocre content.
My friend, let me tell you a story during my studies when I had to help someone find a bug in their 1383-line long main() in C… on the other hand I think Ill spare you from the gruesome details, but it took me 30 hours.
The Test part of TDD isn’t meant to encompass your whole need before developing the application. It’s function-by function based. It also forces you to not have giant functions. Let’s say you’re making a compiler. First you need to parse text. Idk what language structure we are doing yet but first we need to tokenize our steam. You write a test that inputs
hello world
into your tokenizer then expects two tokens back. You start implementing your tokenizer. Repeat for parser. Then you realize you need to tokenize numbers too. So you go back and make a token test for numbers.So you don’t need to make all the tests ahead of time. You just expand at the smallest test possible.
On regular desktop environments I really like Guake - it’s a drop down terminal emulator similar to how old games used to do it. It’s nice for quick use here and there. Though these days I just run tilling wm with xfce-terminal. It gets the job done and still looks good.

Hexorg@beehaw.orgMto Programming@beehaw.org•Question: Communication between AWS Commercial and Gov Cloud1·2 years agoI haven’t worked directly on gov cloud but I’m familiar with its design. The two systems are completely isolated from each other with internet in between. I know you can port forward in AWS so a solution would be to spin up a VPN server in AWS and connect to it from gov cloud.
Hexorg@beehaw.orgto Technology@beehaw.org•Google is working on essentially putting DRM on the webEnglish2·2 years agoNo they don’t. Worst case known attacks have resulted in insecure keys being generated. And even if malware could somehow be transferred out of it you wouldn’t have to trash your whole computer - just unplug the TPM
Hexorg@beehaw.orgto Steam Deck@sopuli.xyz•Steam Deck and American / European Truck Simulator2·2 years agoI’m unable to look at the exact config screen but I remember you could configure the stick to map to absolute mouse position in deck’s configuration.
Oh I think it’s
What does the other end of a plug like that look?
Hexorg@beehaw.orgto Technology@beehaw.org•Google is working on essentially putting DRM on the webEnglish4·2 years agoTpm modules are pretty good. And you can buy them separately like another card. Motherboards usually have a slot for them. They are tiny like usb drives. They essentially are usb derives but for your passwords and keys. You can even configure Firefox to store your passwords in tpm
Global interpreter lock
