I assume 34 in the compact_7() one was supposed to be 35, and edx was supposed to be used at some point in the bittest() one (unless i'm missing something lol)

For some reason the localization still requires javascript... (I'm pretty sure the transition could have been done in just CSS as well)

Re:If AI writes your code, why use Python?

tbh python seems really unreadable to me, and i'm saying that as someone who's first [non-Scratch] programming language was that. stuff with syntax closer to C or javascript seems easier to see [C?] where stuff starts and ends

This is why I generally prefer CW/Content warning; it is basically saying "this is what this contains", instead of putting any implications of it being triggering. So CW: suicide, for example, is just for anyone who doesn't really want to read about suicide at the moment, whether it's because they want a more upbeat story or somebody they knew just died

> most web apps load faster than their native counterparts these days
maybe i'm doing something wrong, but from what i've noticed, the browser is usually what takes up most of my computer's resources.
also, i assumed the reasoning for using a native app was for offline use, honestly.
Re:10% of Firefox crashes are caused by bitflips
on Thursday March 05, 2026 @09:19PM (#47270014)
firefox crashes... decently often for me, but it's usually pretty clear what the cause is [having a bunch of other programs open]. every time i can recall my computer bluescreening [in the last year~, since that's how long ive had it] it was because of firefox tho.
this may have something to do with the fact that my laptop is from 2017, however.

it's more just a personal want to be able to see what I can do on my own tbh; i don't generally judge other people on that measure
although i do think Steve Jobs didn't make the iPhone /alone/, and that a lot of other people contributed to that. i'd like to be able to name who helps me and not say "gemini". again, it's more of a personal thing lol

Re:TikTok's 'Addictive Design' Found to Be Illegal in Europe

yeah, the issue is that there really can't be one "do-it-all" tool. even duolingo doesn't really teach grammar iirc [which really means one can't become fluent tbh]. one kinda has to set up the parts by oneselves, but that's a bit difficult to get used to

duolingo is pretty bad overall, sadly most better alternatives [zB: anki flashcards] are a bit less shiny and more difficult to set-up for less tech-oriented people

i can't really concentrate well on long video content outside of specific cases, so there's that. honestly though i feel like shorts aren't the solution, there should just be more text content [eg: tutorials] in addition to video things. [every time someone says something is "only communicateable through video/audio" i die a little bit inside...]
