Maybe it'll be like the final episode of Attack on Titan where the last season was split into multiple parts, and the final part was split into multiple chapters. Was it also a two partner? It got stupid, anyway.

Ah, ok, that makes more sense. That also solves any ordering problem if you, say, you're running local and elsewhere commands and a sync means pressing up gives you an unexpected item.

Sync seems like it's going to be more pain than its worth unless you have all your machines configured the same. I'm not even running the same distros between machines...

I like this author's attitude. I scoffed a bit when I read about "joy that can be found in mediocrity" but he's right that you can (and should) just do something because you enjoy it or it's good for you.

They sold that stuff to the Brits (the £27bn in today's money was only finally paid off in 2006).

If memory serves, the US were also supplying the Nazis at the start of the war.

I agree that US involvement was vital to winning WW2, but the idea that they won it themselves is pure American propaganda.

I've just installed this from your recommendation and it's brilliant. I love the amateur graphics, it just adds to the charm.

Agreed - it's 25 minutes without filler or repetition. Good stuff.

I think you linked to the wrong page; that one's about the different types of roots and root systems.

I'm not sure what you're asking. Do you mean Lemmy communities, Lemmy instances, or something else?

Bad link 👎

This article seems to be an incomplete pasting of an old article: What Did Ada Lovelace’s Program Actually Do? I was suspicious when it said "A contemporary interpretation of Ada's punch card stack using JavaScript might resemble the following" but didn't have any code.

The real tl;dr is it calculated terms of the Bernoulli series.

Tris, who's behind the excellent No Boilerplate YouTube channel offers mentoring. I don't know if he has spaces or if he's in your budget, but he's got experience explaining things and clearly knows his stuff.

Downvotes are disabled on Beehaw, and I believe that downvotes from other instances don't federate - i.e. they're only visible on the instance the user downvoted from. If you're on a massive instance and you view a popular community you'll still get "useful" numbers of downvotes but otherwise it'll mostly be upvotes.

I think Lemmy does need a more nuanced downvote system (e.g. you need to select a reason or there's a quota or something), but I'm not sure how it'd work with the wider fediverse.

Edit: I should have scrolled more, two people had already written this comment).
