Brilliant exception handling I found in an app i had to work on

ipkpjersi ,

Actually, exception rethrowing is a real thing - at least in Java. You may not always want to handle the exception at the absolute lowest level, so sometimes you will instead “bubble” the exception up the callstack. This in turn can help with centralizing exception handling, separation of concerns, and making your application more modular.

It seems counter-intuitive but it’s actually legit, again at least in Java. lol

CannotSleep420 ,

If your just going to let something higher on the call stack handle it, why catch it in the first place?

Some people say it's wrong to because it disincentivizes people from making new content, but all I want is to be able to find the content that's already been made!

What's immoral is not your after you download them! @piracy

I think the best outcome of the ongoing Reddit corporate trashfire would be if each subreddit mod team opened their own Kbin server for supporting and migrating their community, running their way.

@End0fLine @LibraryLass In my head, she is always in an unintelligible shouting contest with Andy Kaufman.

I was first introduced to her in Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and I’ve loved her since. She has a quality that just puts a smile on your face.

CeruleanRuin ,

To me she will always be the witch from Princess Bride.

Edit: “I’m not a witch, I’m your wife! But after what you just said, I’m not even sure I want to be that any more.”

@gaming noticed this feed slowed down once those two servers were defederated. But I could just be imagining things

A portion of the feed was made up from a user posting articles to this feed from one of the other instances. They generated a bit of discussion, but mostly it was lower effort links.

startrek.website is a partnership between /r/StarTrek and /r/DaystromInstitute from Reddit, they've both locked their subs over there for good. Follow @startrek for all your Trek needs. 🖖 :trek:

Next on this old starship, we building a forum.

Also, where did the name friends of DeSoto come from? I’ve listened for years and feel like a missed a random reference.

Soupbreaker ,

It’s from the early days of Greatest Gen, and references Captain DeSoto of the USS Hood (NCC-1703). DeSoto and the Hood made several appearances in TNG, and Ben and Adam leaned into his chill vibes, theorizing that the Hood would be a great place to work.

It’s also an allusion to the phrase Friend of Dorothy, an older euphemism for LGBT people.

I think it was originally jokingly conceived as a sort of passphrase or shibboleth for fans of the pod to identify each other without revealing their embarrassing enthusiasm to outsiders, e.g.

Q: “Are you a friend of DeSoto?”

A: “Best boss I ever had!”

Season 6 Episode 3 Attack of the Killer App is Still Amazing!

This episode aged soo well! Especially all the commentary about Apple, privacy, and internet culture. It's surprising how well all the jokes aged in spite of all the changes to technology and society since the episode released.

Ok, so I'm trial following @startrek and I'm getting a torrent(<a bit of hyperbole) posts in my home page. How do you people that follow hundreds/thousands handle this? Just ignore most of what flows down the page?

I've tried to be careful curating the people I follow, and it was fairly manageable til today. Trying to avoid setting up a lemmy acct, but StarTrek is only gonna get more active, and there's more to life than StarTrek :^O How to manage?
