  • I bet that's wicked hot on sunny summer days, I can feel the burning black plastic

  • What If We Made Advertising Illegal?

    Jump

  • Actually I think the idea here is banning paid advertisement, especially online paid ads. In some ways that would give local traders a significant advantage.

    Our world is so centralized around economic activity and our political systems are heavily catered to ensuring it continues that I don't think it would ever be legislated away. Too many people make too much money and have too much influence to even consider it.

    Radical idea, I think a toned down version of it could be incredibly healthy. For example no advertisements on roadways, no advertisements on video platforms, etc

    If the U.S. were to rewrite all of its laws tomorrow, what are the things that Democrats and Republicans would agree on?

    Jump

  • If they were tasked with rewriting all laws we would be in anarchy without any laws ad infinitum

  • i have been living in middle east for almost 20 years and would like to be an american/canadian citizen, how can i become one? how much will it cost?

    Jump

  • Probably not the best time for a person in the Middle East to immigrate to the US.

    Both countries have incredibly well laid out options, your specific situation will change exactly what options you have. Are you incredibly wealthy? Are you a student? Lemmy is a good community but really not where you should be getting this kind of easily searched for info.

  • Had an old roommate flame me in his journal, he'd rushed out leaving the page open and I saw my name when I went in his room to drop something off.

    He said some incredibly valid shit about me being condescending and it changed my outlook on my whole life. Nobody lies to their journal.

  • A progressive party would be doomed from the start, the dichotomy of us politics is an issue of inertia not party availability. Unless both parties splinter simultaneously how could it possibly be successful? You think the american people are generally progressive? Look at this last election!

  • Graduating highschool and wanting to work as a programmer, advice?

    Jump

  • Nobody knows the future, but we can definitely speculate. Programming is still a good career if you're talented, but it may no longer be the golden standard of well paying jobs that it has been for the last few decades.

    More important than anything, if you want to program, then do it. Don't wait for university to tell you how, get your hands dirty and start making something cool, a game, a web app, whatever.

    Getting a job is hard for junior devs right this second for largely macroeconomic reasons, that may change in the future or it may not. You can sidestep that issue entirely with a solid portfolio.

    Learn to use the latest ai tools, but don't rely on them to do the work and learning for you, "vibe coding" may or may not be a future career but if it is the salary will likely be significantly lower than software engineering.

    A degree does not make a programmer, but programming does.

  • Majority of AI Researchers Say Tech Industry Is Pouring Billions Into a Dead End

    Jump

  • Unit tests and good architecture are still foundational requirements, so far no bug reports with any of these updates. In fact a huge chunk of these ai updates were addressing bugs. Not sure why you're so mad at what you imagine is happening and making so many broad assumptions!

    Jump

  • They're all pretty fired up at the update velocity tbh 🤷

  • Majority of AI Researchers Say Tech Industry Is Pouring Billions Into a Dead End

    Jump

  • Nah, generative ai is pretty remarkably useful for software development. I've written dozens of product updates with tools like claudecode and cursorai, dismissing it as a novelty is reductive and straight up incorrect

  • 22% Drop in Programming Jobs

    Jump

  • To quote a commenter from hn:

    To save you wasting 10 minutes: The distinction between programmer and software developer in government definition, led to "programming" jobs dropping by 22%. This doesn't affect the "Software development" industry which saw only a 0.3% drop.

    It is really a click bait.

  • US Forest Service firings decimate: entire generation of talent and passion lost

    Jump

  • Surely this won't come back to bite us, fires surely won't be worse this year with no forest service. The failure to plant new growth definitely won't be an issue for our grandkids to deal with. The lack of oversight over logging operations surely won't result in clear cutting.

  • "Secret" things like this really should be invite only and not publicly shared

  • Wth is business logic?

    Jump

  • I think of it as the parts of code that are specific to a business. The unique stuff that the business itself does, not generic stuff that all software does.

    Spotify does music, a "play" function that starts music is business logic. A function that calculates the average of a set of numbers is generic code so not business logic.
