That’s a really weird way of looking at it.
That’s how I roll.
Without the database, there’s no central ledger to consult as to whether or not you’re legally a person.
We’re already seeing them do that without a database. 🤷♂️
Other countries are able to maintain internal databases without using them to screw over their own citizens (except when they do). The problem isn’t the database.
See the UK Post Office accounting scandal, in which a persistent computer error went unfixed for decades and caused hundreds of post office employees to be fired and dragged through courts for corruption that never happened. A good chunk of them committed suicide.
The database is the least important part of the system: the organizational structure, rules, and procedures are way more important, because they actively help or harm people.
no no, it’s an input to a Palantir database
Welp, I know what I’m reading next. Thanks!
But I’ve read it is not on their plans, as it is a hack done by others on top of Lemmy, due to a lack of official support from Lemmy itself
I assumed it was part of Lemmy. Too bad it isn’t integrated into the platform. I hear piefed may have keyword blocking, so maybe that’s worth looking into.
Block the word “Trump” and block communities you don’t like. It’s remarkably effective.
I fully expect that to make a comeback in the aftermath of the climate wars.
too real
While the stats vary depending on who’s measuring, the story is consistent: web publishers, who provided the content that trained these AI models, face dramatically diminishing visitors, which means lower advertising and subscription revenues, even amid overall growth in search impressions.

AND MY AXE!
Your example didn’t mention the use of the function keyword. Instead, it seemed to be questioning the placement of the return type - placing it after the argument list seems pretty common in newer languages.
Rust and TypeScript use the return-type-at-the-end convention as well.
In modern BASIC variants, DIM has become a backronym: “declare in memory”.
TIL. I always thought it was a backronym for declare in (yo) momma.
only the linter gives a hoot - the interpreter will happily leave that footgun for later
I’m glad I didn’t have that experience. I think I had cases on those phones, so that might have been what made the difference.
Back when removable batteries were a thing, the couple of phones I had both were removable without screws.
I have no strong feelings about what a removable battery should look like, but I love the idea of increasing a phone’s longevity easily.
Repetition repetition repetition
