  • This is what underfunding education for decades and TikTok does to a country. Romania has the highest number of TikTok users per capita in Europe.

  • It applies to instances outside Romania if the user is Romanian in Romania. There are no major social media companies based in Romania, and yet the law still applies on TikTok, Facebook, X, etc.

    The fact that the law is selectively applied against one side but not the other is a different issue.

  • This post is technically illegal, btw. You can try and convince people publicly to vote, but not who to vote for 24h before polls open.

    Took time off work and have been campaigning hard for 2 weeks (you can guess for who xD) and am completely physically exhausted. Slept for 14 hours today now that the campaign is over. All that's left is to vote tomorrow and see the result.

    It's an important weekeND.

  • "It doesn't make sense! The math doesn't math! If they are saving users all that money, how can they afford all these ads?!? Where's the money coming from?"

  • You know you're old when the gf/wife wants to accompany DnD with a cheese board and a bottle of wine for the guests :))

  • The key is sharing a hobby. For me, it's board games and TTRPGs. Much easier to hang if there's an activity.

  • In quite a few cases, misinformation is worse than no information. Friend of mine now spends half his work day rejecting broken code generated from ChatGPT that would break the codebase if merged.

  • An interesting point I heard the other day: if AI can replace entry level jobs, doing simple scripts that AI can definitely do (because it essentially just spits out the stack overflow/Reddit/etc training data verbatim), then companies no longer need entry level programmers.

    If they don't need entry level programmers, how do you get future senior programmers? Skipping directly to advanced stuff without getting practical experience on the simple stuff is incredibly hard.

    What happens when the current senior programmers retire in larger numbers, and there's very few replacements because the ladder is gone?

  • Not looking good for us so far. Frontrunner is Simion, who has been banned from both Ukraine and Moldova for his irredentist views...

  • Speaking of voting pro-EU parties, Romanian presidential elections 2: electric boogaloo are today. Hopefully there's enough sane people in the country...

  • To me, "guys" has been a gender-neutral term for a while now. At least that's how it's used here in my little bubble in Europe.

  • /me eating popcorn as a nano user

  • That's not how the word is commonly used though. In common parlance, everyone understands "anti-Semitic" to mean "anti-Jew", even though that's not what it means etymologically.

    Disclaimer: being pro-palestinian does not necessarily mean you're anti-Semitic, was just talking descriptive vs prescriptive vocabulary here.

  • Don't worry, you can say Luigi Mangione here.

  • My younger cat taught me to play fetch with her. She finds a receipt or other small bit of paper, brings it to me, and wants me to crumple it into a ball. Then, after throwing it, she brings it back and drops it at my feet. This normally continues about 10-20 times until she gets bored or loses the paper.

  • Incidentally, I guess? Still a powerful neoliberal female leader. This was written based on Thatcher.

  • Peasants that survived the black death didn't have wealth. Still resulted in a massive increase in their bargaining power.

  • I have a sneaking suspicion that that Palestinian carpenter wasn't just a commie, but also a Jew!
