I’ll be the idiot who doesn’t get the joke.

I recognize that programmers often start counting at 0.

I’m not sure how this connects to 0 being lonely, since that means it’s getting used. Even if the programmers are lonely, I still do not get it. Can someone explain?

I’m genuinely not sure how submitting your resume you put effort into instead of whatever optimized-for-AI-recruitment-slop this outputs will damage companies that don’t use AI recruiting tools, could you elaborate?

OP should try the !opensource@programming.dev community instead.

Also, just for fun, it is technically programming, just not the computer kind ;)

Broadcast programming is the practice of organizing or ordering (scheduling) of broadcast media shows, typically the radio and the television, in a daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, or season-long schedule.

Radio programming is the process of organising a schedule of radio content for commercial broadcasting and public broadcasting by radio stations.

So I guess social media post programming is the process of organizing a schedule of post content.

the dog knowing how to sit at a computer chair and not destroy anything in front of it puts it so far ahead of the curve for dogs that it might as well be dog god

Thanks, donated this way!

For some ideas of what to do, this post by Teri Kanefield has a list of concrete actions that you can take: https://terikanefield.com/things-to-do/

Very much appreciated.

Also, what do you mean, OP, by “do you have perfect recall or an average human byte”? Are you thinking of information in terms of bits and that people can only keep a limited amount of things in working memory at a time?

What show is this?

I enjoyed this animation of the meme in the OP.

I think that would be a great situation to be in.

You have created a cool thing a lot of people use, by being good at something. You’ve done something.

Also, people have no idea who you are. Nobody is digging through your trash, harassing the people you love, taking pictures of you wherever you go including on your bad hair days, etc. You’re just some guy.

This feels like me wanting to learn Hare because I like rabbits, which I bring up because someone left this reply for me and I think it applies to you too:

That is such a sweet reason! Whimsical decisions like this can be some of the best. Life demands a bit of whimsy every now and then.

Hey, thanks for the suggestion! I was considering firing up a VM just for Hare, but thanks for bringing this option to my attention.

I was going to learn !hare@programming.dev just because it is called “Hare” and I like rabbits, but then I saw that I am not on a supported OS.

I find it very appropriate this post came out of lemmy.zip

If you’re like me and wondered what a dead key is…

A dead key is a special kind of modifier key on a mechanical typewriter, or computer keyboard, that is typically used to attach a specific diacritic to a base letter.[1] The dead key does not generate a (complete) character by itself, but modifies the character generated by the key struck immediately after.

Just curious: was this based off an existing song and if so, what is it?

I also don’t generally use Python as my primary language, but NumPy has pretty good docs in my opinion!

When I was in middle school, social media might have been omnipresent but even the really popular kids never exceeded 1,000 followers. In high school you could increase the upper limit on followers, but most people hovered around 250 to low 1,000s depending on their popularity. And I never heard anyone talk about their follower quantity, let alone insult people over it. I suppose this is my “kids these days” moment.

Then again, we all just had personal accounts for our friends to follow and weren’t trying to be some big influencer or social media star—maybe that’s what these kids are trying to do? Either way, I am really hoping what you overheard was just banter or an ironic joke between the two, and not legit bullying.

How do I get better at understanding API docs without a tutorial to walk me through the basics of how the library works in the first place? Once I have an idea of some of what the library does and how a few commonly-used functions work I can somewhat handle the rest, but getting to that point in the first place is pretty hard for me if no getting started or tutorial section exists. And so I’m very intimidated by a lot of libraries…
