The question as asked: you can do it anywhere. Right here. In worldnews. Lemmyshitpost. Gardening. Whatever.

But I think you’re asking: where can I say whatever I want without consequences?

And that’s harder. Because if you have the right to subject other people to your opinions, that gives them the right to subject you to their opinions.

If you want to avoid being banned, create your own community. If you want to avoid your community being nuked by admins, create your own Lemmy instance. If you want a safe space for yourself, free from criticism about what you say, don’t federate your instance. You will be safe and able to howl into the wind without anyone troubling you.

Lester (the croc) on a molester.

I found code that calculated a single column in an HTML table. It was “last record created on”.

The algorithm was basically:

foreach account group
  foreach account in each account group
    foreach record in account.records
      if record.date > maxdate
        max = maxdate

It basically loaded every database record (the basic unit of record in this DATA COLLECTION SYSTEM) to find the newest one.

Customers couldn’t understand why the page took a minute to load.

It was easily replaced with a SQL query to get the max and it dropped down to a few ms.

The code was so hilariously stupid I left it commented out in the code so future developers could understand who built what they are maintaining.

“So what was the problem in the end?”

“Man, I don’t fucking know.”

• me, every goddamn time

It’s like when they say “we have apps for your phone” when they mean “we have an app on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store”.

I’m sitting here clutching my Nokia Lumia 640 yelling at them.

Also g gg if you’re feeling frisky.

You drew it backwards and your fire went out.

Then how can you even tell if your toilet is online?!

“It stinks!”

Please don’t test your hobby LLMs in production.

Waddaya mean “or”?

Polite: “Thanks.”

Less polite: “Thank you for your feedback.”

My fave: “UNSUBSCRIBE”

I have 2-4 of these preinstalled on all my pants.

Also, did this start when someone made an iPurse joke and someone didn’t let it go?

14.1 would be ideal.

Did that start recently for you, too? I used to come home with 60% battery on my 15 Pro Max and now I’m at 30% with the same daily usage.

Replaced by AI, ironically.

I feel like admitting that would have led to him getting a bullet in the head.

The machines obviously aren’t interested in reconnecting him - they grow humans by the thousand in their facilities. Like you’re not going to hike for a day to pick up lost carrot when you have them growing in your garden.

The only way the machines would consider reconnecting him would be as part of a deal for something significantly more valuable than one human. If Morpheus is on the table? Sure, now that’s worth it. Which isn’t to say they wouldn’t have betrayed and killed him once they had Morpheus anyway. Our only assurance that they would honour an agreement is a throwaway line from the Architect at the end of Reloaded.

And if there’s no going back, what does a terrified resistance do when one of their fighters starts talking about joining the enemy? He’s too dangerous - he’s gotta go.

I always think of this when someone tells me to water my plants regularly and not always let them dry out and subsequently overwater the shit out of them to compensate.

No, motherfucker, we live in uncertain times.

They have (had?) a fairly generous free tier that works well for people starting out.

I ended up buying a license after evaluation because the UI provides everything I reasonably want to do, it’s fundamentally a Linux server so I can change things I need, and it requires virtually zero fucking around to get started and keep running.

I guess the short answer is: it ticks a lot of boxes.

They could have just not had the monkeys. They added nothing to the story and were the most egregiously bad CGI.
