Don't Worry, Bee Happy
  • Carpenter bees aren't a pest they're a legitimate danger to life. Not directly like murder hornets are, but indirectly, because they destroy load bearing infrastructure.

  • It's been around a year since a lot of us quit Reddit, myself included. I'm happy with Lemmy, but I still feel a bit lost online since leaving the old site. Discussion?
  • There's a pretty solid different between discussing things that people might disagree with in a mature, measured way, and attacking people for disagreeing with you.

    Starting things off with a rant about the people against you is.... probably not the best way to try and convince anyone you're the former?

  • I'm not sure why you're getting so aggressive over this, or so defensive about being told to separate your TV from your streaming tools so that if the streaming tools start to suck you can just replace a $20 stream stick instead of a several hundred to several thousand dollar TV you need to calm down and stop being a dick to people trying to politely help you and explain things to you.

    The Internet Archive's last-ditch effort to save itself
  • That's a really terrible misrepresentation of what happened.You should probably investigate this matter more. This article is supremely biased and basically outright wrong.

    The quote you gave, for example, is an almost cartoonist level of distortion of the facts.

  • How web bloat impacts users with slow devices
  • In the case of Discourse, a hardware engineer is an embarrassment not deserving of a job if they can't hit 90% of the performance of an all-time-great performance team but, as a software engineer, delivering 3% the performance of a non-highly-optimized application like MyBB is no problem. In Knuth's case, hardware engineers gave programmers a 100x performance increase every decade for decades with little to no work on the part of programmers. The moment this slowed down and programmers had to adapt to take advantage of new hardware, hardware engineers were "all out of ideas", but learning a few "new" (1970s and 1980s era) ideas to take advantage of current hardware would be a waste of time.

    You can really tell this guy is some hardware design engineer at nvidia that has absolutely no fucking clue about how real-world user space programming works. Also I like how 74% slowly kept getting inflated until it became 90%.

    Like, this dude is trying to claim that fucking Donald Knuth himfuckingself cannot figure out some new computer hardware.

    Multiple processors working in concert is not, and never has been, a cure-all. It's highly situational and generally not useful.

    What's dumb is that, as a Systems Design Engineer at NVIDIA, Dan Luu should know that. After all, how has SLI been doing recently?

    That said, yes, of course, web dev bloat is absolutely out of control, and slow websites absolutely have nothing to do with hardware or network. That's a culprit of bad frameworks, horrific amounts of ads/trackers/bullshit, and honestly just general lack of programming fundamentals in the web dev space. Might as well call them web technicians and really ruffle some feathers. :P

  • Cyberpunk 2077 Still Has Easter Eggs Players Haven't Found
  • Man, there's some salty people here that don't like when others don't play cp2077 religiously.

    You all need to calm down, people are allowed to not play a game 300+ hours. They're even allowed to not like it.
