It would be a different beast if the school didn’t allow you access coursework on a personal machine without installing their bullshit, thats a huge issue.

That's exactly how it works at many places. Students can only use a personal device if it's enrolled in the school's MDM, which grants them just as much control.

Anything except the 2nd to last one, which is, unfortunately, mandated by my employer's internal code style guidelines. 🫠

TIL that pluralistic.net is blocked on Facebook, and any links to it are automatically removed as "farming engagement" bee woozy emoji

That's not entirely true. Practice is important, but homework actually has a negative impact on learning: https://hachyderm.io/@Impossible_PhD/112969358305278574

This may sound like a mess to you. But it was remarkably enjoyable to work in. Gone were the concerns of code duplication. Gone were the concerns of consistency. Gone were the concerns of extensibility. Code was written to serve a use, to touch as little of the area around it as possible, and to be easily replaceable. Our code was decoupled, because coupling it was simply harder.

Incredible

Agreed, unfortunately. I'm not even sure it supports defederation :/

In my experience, the larger threadiverse instances have gradually collected the worst ex-redditors, who have brought the worst of reddit's culture. I'm unfortunately not surprised that lemmy.world has queerphobic mods, given how the users behave. 😕

my employer has decided to license an "AI RDBMS" that will dynamically rewrite our entire database schema and queries to allegedly produce incredible performance improvements out of thin air. It's obviously snake oil, but they're all in on it 🙄

honestly, it feels like the Threadiverse is slowly turning into Reddit (in a bad way). There's so much toxicity and right-wing talking points all over the network. You can see it in nearly every community, on many different instances.

Another vote for the steam controller - it's versatile enough to work comfortably with every game I've wanted to play.
