Did you look at the subject at hand? It wasn't a feature request, it was an a bug issue that had been opened by the programming.dev admins back when there were issues with the instance not federating. It seems to me like OP was providing context(after the issue was mysteriously resolved) and the Lemmy dev lost his cool.

Bernie sold out and Hillary still lost. I respect his body of work but he wasn't the answer.

I think the closest thing we've had to an amazing presidential candidate in the last 12 years was Andrew Yang.

I worked as a network engineer and got pretty frustrated working with outdated applications that were not user friendly. Once I became a supervisor, a large part of my job became writing and generating reports summarizing events that happened on the network that no one would ever read. I wanted to learn programming to automate the things I hated about my job.

I'm still an engineer, not a developer, but I enjoy writing user focused programs that reduce or eliminate worker frustration. As with many jobs, it's not the networking that's difficult, it's all the other bullshit you have to do.

Also, learning how to parse, model and visualize data can really help you make your point to your management and get your ideas pushed through. Also a great way to earn brownie points with your bosses, as managers tend to love graphs.

Wish I could say it was a passion for me but I really learned out of necessity.

thanks for making Lemmy a better place

Honestly I'd suggest something that gets you out of the house more. Motorcycles, Latin dance, hiking and drinking is what I do for fun. I do enjoy programming for fun sometimes but the inspiration is something you have to find in other areas of life.

Totally useless red circle too. I guess it was intentionally drawn to obscure the context

Haven't been to Panera in a while, had no idea they were selling these drinks. The article makes mention that people who have the condition she had are typically OK with caffeine but that energy drinks are more dangerous because they contain other stimulants apart from the caffeine, like taurine. There's really no fair comparison between coffee and energy drinks because of all the other added stimulants in energy drinks

Gotta risk it for the biscuit

No idea why or when I heard it but I like the risk/reward nature of it

The nice thing in Lemmy is that even when the posts have a lot of comments, you get good engagement. And I haven't come across many of the bad attitudes from reddit

Bro me too LMAO. I've posted a few thoughtful, well thought out comments to bring some perspective to a conversation... No replies, no comments, nothing. I was beginning to think Lemmy was dead

You really spent all that time just to say "I agree with the application of what you're saying on most cases, however, there are some cases where that's not applicable"

What made you think I ever meant that my findings could be applied with 100% success rate?

I imagine if your book got translated into hundreds of different languages, eventually people would add numbers to the verses. Sometimes the translated version is not a great translation to the original languages intent, so it's easy to reference the verse number across other translations or compare it across languages
