I would immediately break something like that. I wish I had that kind of time/expertise.

What’s the dumbest new car? That’s what I want.

In 10 years, when we move off discord for “the next big thing” all that info will be gone yet again. It happened to slack and it will most likely happen to discord. None of it will be indexed too. Fun times.

Something like rtv would be great!

It was recent.

It’s kinda funny on Reddit, you would have had to pay for your picture comment. I’m happy to donate to lemmy, but putting features like this behind paywalls is silly.

Osm+. It took a long time to set up, but it was worth it. What also helped is downloading as many local maps as possible and set up favorites. It’s not perfect, but for what I use it for, I like it.

Google maps has been getting worse as well. I’ve been moving off after many years of using it.

mesamunefire , to asklemmy in What's an aspect of your job that college didn't prepare you for?

Totally agree! git is a standard for a reason.

It never fails too how many times I have to teach jr devs git right off the bat. Its just weird enough to require a little bit of handholding when they start.

mesamunefire , to asklemmy in What's an aspect of your job that college didn't prepare you for?

Computer Science was great dont get me wrong, but I totally agree. Comp Sci helped with some of the basics, but didnt prepare you at all on the soft skills that get you ahead, nor why task management, version control, and other such concepts are so important.

mesamunefire , to asklemmy in What are your favourite RSS feeds ?

Hackaday! Its a great place to find projects and see what others are doing. gamingonlinux to learn about new games.

I’m wondering if we will need to tweak our Internet protocols to include interplanetary time? I would imagine mirroring would be much more important. Because light can only go so fast.

Yep! I was lucky in a way, I had a friend of mine who recently got a job that needed help/was hiring. There were a couple people when they let go of everyone that is still looking for work.

WFH jobs are a huuuuge benefit.

That would be great!

I also have a Kobo, Calibre works great with it (Calibre is a life saver) but it would be nice to get something that is more open.
