Yea that’s not explained better than a math teach. They just swapped notation common in math, for notation common in one specific programming language. it’s only easier for the audience who happens to be familiar with programming in general, and that language in particular.

I don’t understand why people frequently say this. While it’s true you can pay money for them, I’ve never spent a dime on reddit and have given out over 50 golds and have enough coins to give out a half dozen more. I don’t know what the mechanics are for earning the coins I have, all I can say is I haven’t paid for any of them yet I do have them, so it’s not true that when someone gives an award it was paid for with real money.

no it isn’t. My interest in Lemmy is not romantic and if you do agree with this, get out and engage people in person more often.

FYI - The results you are seeing are unique to you. Other people may see a different list.

no.

no love for the Relay expats?

hard disagree. This isn't black and white, you can do some of both and that is not wrong or unprincipled. Thinking otherwise is just simple minded.

any mods that rolled over to continue doing an unpaid job just to retain some form of power are bitches.

Personally, I don't believe that POV is fair. As someone who, with a small group of friends, started a sub that has grown to 100k people and is the most active internet community for a niche gaming segment - i personally think it's not that easy to judge. I have not been active on my sub in years, and I leave the job up to the new guard, but I can completely respect the decision to want to keep something you invested in building alive and a positive influence in the area it affects. It's easy to armchair QB stuff like this and judge others decisions, but to just generalize and say "better to die than to think something else is better in the bigger picture" is a bit of a cop out imo.

yea, mastodon clients are only good for microblogs, not for threaded discussion like here or kbin.
