johannesvanderwhales@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the best general-interest Lemmy instance?10·6 months agoNo porn is appealing. Nothing against porn but I read Lemmy in public a lot and i hate playing whack a mole with nsfw communities.
johannesvanderwhales@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the best general-interest Lemmy instance?141·6 months agoNot liking what I’ve seen from the moderation lately.
It would be pretty easy to make a fraction class if you really wanted to. But I doubt it would result in much difference in the precision of calculations since the result would still be limited to a float value (edit: I guess I’m probably wrong on that but reducing a fraction would be less trivial I think?)
johannesvanderwhales@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•If time travel were to exist, which theory would you subscribe to?1·6 months agoProbably “read only”/neighboring dimensions. Can’t change the timeline you came from. If you could there’s just no way there wouldn’t be evidence of people doing it.
But otherwise I guess “all changes due to time travel have already happened” as incompatible with free will as it is.

johannesvanderwhales@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Did someone actually quit smoking after using a vape?1·7 months agoThis is absolutely true, the hardest part of quitting smoking has never been getting rid of the nicotine addiction. It’s not starting again the next time you’re at a bar and your friend goes outside for a smoke and offers you one.
johannesvanderwhales@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Did someone actually quit smoking after using a vape?2·7 months agoYeah, I switched to vaping for a few years, slowly tapered my nicotine, and quit. Been about 5 years since I smoked.

No getting around it, scheduling meetings just fucking sucks when you’ve got a 12 hour offset.

Just don’t be late for your first meeting. But also don’t throw meetings on people’s calendar at 8am. It’s a dick move.

The enshittification comes later, first stage is just burning through VC cash to establish market share.

Instead good quality shoes are repairable.
