"programming has things called "threads" and things called "strings" and they somehow have fuck all to do with each other"

No one say anything about master/slave

Down the rabbit hole we go!

Chrome and Windows? What in the closed source development environment?

I think the fediverse is having a naming issue too. Most people don't realize Lemmy is basically just the forum days of old, but you can share your account everywhere. (yes the code is more complicated but the users don't need to know that)

Not even that. I’m getting serious Usenet vibes (from the early 90s, not the thing it has since devolved into). Even the decentralized paradigm with independent servers syncing with each other is conceptually similar (although I’d bet NNTP was a quite different protocol than what we’re using now).

That Apache (restaurant) server can be pretty dangerous if you make him mad.

Cool However dont make a red panda a Firefox please.

[–] [email protected] -3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Firefox is wrong. That’s red panda, not a fox.

One of the Chinese word for red panda is literally Firefox, 火狐, that's where the web browsers name comes from.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Aren't they called 小熊猫 (little panda)? This is the first time I've heard them called 火狐

[–] kurosawaa 1 points 2 years ago

Both are correct. If you check the dictionary both are listed, as well as 紅熊貓. 小熊貓 is definitely the most common word though.

Not a fire either
