12·15 days agoYep. I have a friend that does hotel renovations, which are usually required by the franchise every x years. Those are getting pushed off and her work is drying up.

CasualEurope@piefed.social•People who have tried döner kebab in Germany, how was it?
2·15 days agoI had one ~30 years ago. Since then, I’ve been looking for another, but I’m nowhere near Germany and I’m vegetarian. Some day I’ll find one again.

Programming@programming.dev•How exactly does one get better at programming?
1·1 month agoJust keep coding. Feel free to use as many guardrails and tools as necessary in your IDE (linters, auto completes, mouse over definitions, etc) to make it easier. To use a language metaphor, you want to be focusing on how to communicate, not on things like who vs whom, the subjunctive case, or adjective order. If you need projects, there are plenty of lists out there, but doing something you actually care about and breaking it down into chunks small enough to do is probably more sustainable than a bunch of random tasks someone else recommends.
As for learning new languages: when you have to. If there’s something specific you want to do and it’s only done in a specific language, then go for it, but there’s nothing inherently good about knowing multiple languages, especially if spreading yourself thin prevents you from improving in your main language (or is detrimental because it muddles the patterns you’ve learned in each).

Feddit UK@feddit.uk•Why is maga.place in blocked instances?
41·1 month agoYou don’t want to have discourse with me? Trying to make an echo chamber?
I’m just being facetious, but maga people are truly miserable to be around. At best, you’ll be casting pearls before swine. At worst, you’re advocating giving them more of a platform to be garbage people on. That latter one is bad for everybody.

Feddit UK@feddit.uk•Why is maga.place in blocked instances?
11·1 month agoYou might as well talk to a brick wall for as much as you’ll accomplish. At least my mirror is pretty.

Feddit UK@feddit.uk•Why is maga.place in blocked instances?
161·1 month agoAnd you think an entire instance should have to be exposed to that trash for your amusement? Maybe you might fit in better over there.
More expensive? There’s always a few at every thrift store for cheap p
I haven’t yet realized. What’s the theme?

Television@piefed.social•Why many young adults turn on TV or movie subtitles, according to a new poll
22·1 month agoAudio processing disorder. I hear very well, it’s just difficult picking out words in noisy environments. Being able to see lips helps sometimes as well. Text is so much easier.

196@lemmy.blahaj.zone•Differulential DiagnosisEnglish
2·1 month agoHouse: But Mom, twitch finished Pokemon and that’s way more complicated that heart surgery. Even Chase can do that and he doesn’t even know rock types are weak to electric types.
Kutner: Actually rock types aren’t weak to electric types.
Ghost Amber: Then how did Pikachu beat Brock’s Onyx?

15·1 month agoThat has some similarities to the episode Epic Fail where House does post the answer online for a patient that’s trying to use the Internet to get a better diagnosis than the team can come up with.




That’s how we get gibbering mouthers.
