alokir@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What show did you watch because of memes but were dissappointed?4·2 years agoI saw some memes with Good Omens templates and decided to give the show a watch.
Season 1 was pretty good, the kind of comedy that made me smile occasionally, which is fine.
On the other hand season 2 was mostly boring, 2 episode’s worth of story was stretched out to 6, and the ending ruined the friendship between the main characters, which was the cornerstone of the whole concept.
alokir@lemmy.worldto Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•If programming languages were weapons. Old but gold.281·2 years agoAlso C# (or should I say the .net framework) is now cross platform, which wasn’t really the case when I first saw this meme.
This joke made sense when instead of .net you could only use Mono with C# on other platforms, which wasn’t very good at the time.
alokir@lemmy.worldto Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•If programming languages were weapons. Old but gold.13·2 years agoYes and no. They serve roughly the same purpose.
I actually hated Powershell until I was forced to work on some automation scripts with it and realized that it’s actually pretty cool.
Bash is good for quickly doing something in the terminal but for longer script files I prefer PS now. It feels much more modern and has a less janky syntax.
Funnily enough the reason I had to use it was to make my scripts cross platform between osx, linux and windows.
“It never happened but they deserved it”. It’s a classic rhetoric of people who deny or white wash genocides.

alokir@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.de•European leaders seethe over Putin-Orbán meetingEnglish3·2 years agoI agree, and even if it could I don’t think it should.
But there also should be some kind of mechanism to deal with members whose interests no longer align with the rest of the EU.
Not necessarily kicking them out or punishing them because they are out of line, but cutting funds seams reasonable. We get that money for specific reasons, and if they are not spent to meet those goals they should no longer be handed out.
alokir@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is your dark side/qualities and what do you "see" in others they are likely unconscious of?341·2 years agoI like to “annoy” people whith small “things” that are insignificant “alone” but add up over “time”. Kind of like “overusing” quotation marks in “posts” and comments.
alokir@lemmy.worldto Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•diff tools cannot handle moving code blocks13·2 years agothat’s not even a joke, I’m using intellij community as a merge and diff tool exclusively. it doesn’t support the language I want but even without it it’s better then anything else.
alokir@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why does some social media platforms calls it an "account suspension" but others calls it a ban or something else?91·2 years agoA ban usually means that the account is closed forever, while a suspension is temporary.
But even if it’s not, brands like to distinguish themselves by using different lingo to their competitors. For example, even though Lemmy
is a Reddit cloneis heavily inspired by Reddit, they use different words like community instead of sublemmy.

According to the article the Budapest police stated that they will monitor the concert and step in if try to start anything.
alokir@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.de•European leaders seethe over Putin-Orbán meetingEnglish192·2 years agoThat’s already happening as Western taxpayers understandably don’t want to subsidize Orbán’s corruption. But it seems to have the opposite effect of pulling Hungary back to the EU’s side.

alokir@lemmy.worldto Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•Me, migrating my code from JavaScript to TypeScript:51·2 years agoNot necessarily, depending on your situation you can type the JS code yourself.
If the team making the JS code were using jsdoc then the Typescript compiler can recognize the comments and use it for type checking.
In some instances the compiler can infer types from JS code to do some basic validation.
Even if the external JS code is recognized as
any, your own code that’s using it still has types, so it’s better than nothing.
Just started Dragon Age Origins, I’m still at the tutorial level but it looks like a game I’d enjoy.
