Just call it Ecmascript and be done with it. The name JavaScript was misleading from the beginning. Well, Ecma sounds like a skin disease but who cares.

Same here. On the upside, "All“ on Lemmy has a much higher quality than what Reddit had in the past years. I really enjoy my daily doomscroll on Lemmy.

Exactly. And wait - there’s more: A lot of shops in Germany refuse to accept cards (because every transaction costs them), so you’ll have to pay in cash. After a short while you will carry around a massive amount of nearly worthless coins. Also a lot of elderly people like to pay their groceries in those collected 1, 2, 5 and 10 ct coins. They hand over their cash cent by cent by cent and of course, the cashier has to count them to ensure that the sum is correct. Which it usually isn’t, which means that the elderly person is inclined to go fishing in their purse for more little cent coins and so on.

I wonder what would happen if a bakery decided to round their prices at least up to 10 ct. I for one would be eternally grateful.

From the article: “It is unlikely the Department would ever pursue action against anyone using the Logan Act, given no one has been convicted of violating the 1799 law”

End of story.

I’m using a lepotato for Home Assistant. Works very well for months now, but I’m a bit worried about long term distro support

Did you know you can edit your posts? Could be helpful for other readers since you were incorrectly posting in several messages that wine needs root access.

Oh, I just updated manually and found the option “mark read on scroll”. That should fix it.

Thank you! Jerboa is by far my favorite Lemmy App. Good Work!

There are some media reports claiming that there was simply another unidentified participant in the conference call and they didn’t notice. 🤷

If you tell your kid McD is something special then whenever you pass a McD it will feel a craving and want it. This is how brand obedient consumers are made. If instead you let them have McD for a week or two they will see the food for what it is.

Fsst food chains hate this simple trick

I was wondering if that might be a thing. Saw people talk about “the codes” instead of “code” more than once.

Time to resurrect a classic

I was watching Al Jazeera to see what they had to say and they called the Hamas terror attack “the Hamas military operation”. I have no sympathies for them to say it kindly. Actually the can fuck right off. Deliberately butchering civilians, many among them children is not a military operation. It’s a terror attack.

Enjoy

I don’t like this story. The outcome is only accidentally good and what the author seems to miss entirely is the elephant in the room: A crass failure to communicate with the developers. If you try to establish something like KPIs (not commenting on if that is good or bad here) you need to talk to the team and get them on board. If you treat them like lab rats and try to measure individual performance from the outside that is an obvious fail. In the end, where they state that they “quietly” dropped it, indicates that the real lesson was not learned.

Uh, and a dilbert comic.
