i’m a vim user and i feel attacked. lol

i used to believe in this; but then i learned the hard way that old/opaque code is gross game of hot potato where you will pay the price if your social standing in your organization isn’t privileged enough.

This.

The leftist instances have a good mix of leftists and liberals that are brave enough to do what they’re told not to do.

That explains A LOT!!! Lol

the former is always confused for the latter; especially on lemmy.

I can speak on immigrants from Central America because we sponsored 7 families (aunts & uncles) growing up and I ended up going to school w my cousins who didn’t speak English.

They did REALLY well in science, math, physics, biology, history & sociology because the schools that they came from had significantly higher standards, so they coasted until the American students caught up to them years later; but did poorly w literature, English, social studies, & civics for obvious reasons. (I grew up in small town USA and the racist teachers tried to fail some of them, but couldn’t since their excellent grades in the hard sciences made up for their failure grades in the soft sciences). (They also got into more fights at school by the racist bullies).

They were young enough so that they were completely fluent in English by the time they graduated high school and I hope that I likewise can become fluent in Spanish when I emigrate after the American fascists ruin everything.

i can understand your confusion: actions speak louder than words; so break it down based on what they did (not what they said) to make it make sense:

1. trump tries to ban tiktok and fails
2. biden, democrats & republicans try to ban tiktok and they succeed
3. tiktok goes dark because it is banned
4. trump promises to issue an executive order to save tiktok and follows through
5. tiktok is back, but now has to depend on trump for its survival so it’ll do whatever trump wants

LIES!!! ALL LIES!!! everyone know that postgres is the TRUE revolutionary sql! lol

are you noticing that your comment regarding the yougov poll stating this fact is getting more engagement than any of the other comments and are you also noticing that they’re all refuting it?
