  • If you are in one of the supported locations, I can recommend Breeze. Via Breeze you can’t chat after matching. Instead you get a date planner in front of you. You pay for actual dates, meaning the app wants you to go on dates, since that is what gives them money. Cancelling dates is penalized via badges on your profile, and less priority in the algorithm. Hence, swiping right is a serious action, even more so than a message on the more serious sites. You also get a limited amount of profiles per day (around 5 to 10 or so), so you don’t get lost in swiping sessions. And yes, you do get dates with people who you really don’t click with. But the hour or two spend having a drink are still less of a waste of energy than chatting for 2 weeks to come to the same conclusion.

    I agree that the lines look sharp, but the composition makes no sense. The giant wheel next to the cabin is just weird. Why is the wheel bigger? And why is the cabin not wider than the track width? This looks like a tractor, not a locomotive. The steam is comming from the coal storage, but not from the engine. And why does the coal storage have a chimney anyway? Then there are the weirdly shaped coupling rods. These mistakes make no sense in the context of a steam locomotive, but they look plausable. I’m no AI expert, but it certainly is a weird looking steam locomotive.

    I’m starting to think this was designed wrong intentionally. What better way to farm engagement then to wrongly draw a train in a meme about autism, on Lemmy?




  • I have barely any experience with raw gdb, but debugging is something that allows for a lot of contextual actions. Even just placing a breakpoint is simpler if you can click the line instead of copy-pasting the line number. But also evaluating expresssions while on a breakpoint, or a graph with an overview of all threads. I doubt these are straight-forward commands in gdb, and if they are, you need to figure out the exact parameters (like line number).

    Furthermore, I have tried raw gdb once, and got super confused as to what I was supposed to do or look at. Yet every IDE makes it trivial to use debuggers. Learning the options available to you is much easier in a well designed GUI.


  • GUIs just being front-ends for a CLI tool is a horrible idea. This is why most git GUIs fail so terribly. I have seen too many of those where all the buttons were just replacements for CLI calls. If it is just a front-end for a CLI, then why the heck not just use the CLI?

    A good git GUI has not been designed to just wrap the CLI. Instead, it works with the structure of git (commits, branches, tags, etc), and builds around those from the ground up. Only once the functionality has been designed should the question arise: What CLI commands do we need to implement this?



  • I see this definition of communism more lately, but the dictionary definition of communism absolutely does not rewards based on work. It rewards based on need. To the point where money can be abolished altogether. What you describe sounds like socialism, where the distribution of goods is based on contribution, rather than need.

    I feel like a lot of discussions surrounding communism have this issue, where people do not have the definition of communism aligned properly. Where did you learn your definition of communism? And where can one read about it? What I have been taught aligns very well with Wikipedia.
