I’m gettin there myself; I took a closer look at Lemmy the other day. But man do I prefer the UI of Kbin.
Reddit still seems like a big one, unfortunately. I don’t contribute any longer but I haven’t been able to stop lurking.
I’ve noticed your username and I’d be happy to talk to you about Java, if you’d like. It’s my favorite programming ecosystem.
I’m in a Discord server. I’d love for some folks in there to try out Matrix but I’m too scared to ask. Even if I wasn’t there’s still the issue of Matrix being too techie.
FreeTaxUSA is free for federal. They charge (a reasonable amount) to file state taxes.
You can pay friends with Pay. You can’t do that with Wallet.
Peer to peer payments are going away
I’ll watch what MKBHD has to say about it but that’s about it
0.999… (infinite nines) and 1 are equal. They are two representations of the same number, like 0.5 and 1/2 (one half) are.
I’m actually Latino and I don’t hate Latinx. I feel it comes from a good place and I also feel genderless language is important.
I do have a smartphone but I tend to only use it as a consumption device. I prefer to use a laptop connected to an external monitor, keyboard, and mouse to produce stuff.
I prefer the laptop even for simple things like filling out online forms
A habit I learned from Reddit is to keep a gratitude journal. One of my daily tasks is to update it with one thing from that day that I’m grateful for. It can be a big thing; it can be a very small thing like having a tasty muffin that morning. I update it even if my day was miserable and I struggle to think of something.
I’ve become a lot more mindful of things I’m grateful for (so I can update the journal). When I’m grateful, I worry less about sad things like death.
I learned dependency injection as I went along in my engineering career and I’ve become a huge fan of it. And yeah, I strongly prefer to do it “manually” without relying on a framework.
I push hard for it in code reviews
For me it was the UI. Replies to comments on Lemmy are offset by, like, a single pixel. They’re more obvious here. Yup, that was the biggest thing for me.
I’m curious how you managed that
