The talks occurring in Cuba is not pertinent to the story in any way. Stop rage baiting and just present the facts.

Man, I entered my company two years ago for cobol and basic development. The only way to continue is to spend a lot to train new devs.

Same experience for me, but I am unfortunately not allowed to bring mine to work. But the back and forth is fairly simple.

I can say that not using the thumb cluster is totally fine. At this point I have the innermost button on the left side set to space. My thumb also normally rests there. Can't even say I use the right side one at all.

Hotswap and their switch options are fairly nice; I've had no issue while doing it.

Works straight out of the box, but you will want to mess with the layout to find what works for you.

Their rebinding software is also super easy to use. Massive plus there.

Man, I was one of the first peoe in the alpha and beta. Being that way, I never looked up the recent numbers but man, their review stats are insane. I really hope they make it through, but I think they will. I would gladly pay for future updates to keep the game going.

FOR KARL!

Honestly, it's mostly a mindset change. I very recently picked up fortnite with some friends. Running quads is more of a "let's see if we can bully people with weird strats" instead of "I need to win or I'm not having fun." Its more about dicking around with friends and having fun than winning everything. Chances are you are not making money by playing, so why be concerned about it?

Wanted to thank you for number 2. It sounds silly, but my physics teacher in high school would always pull up an invention of the week. Everyone loved it.

Could I have a source? The article merely said the devs declined deleting it as it didn't break any rules. The same shit exists on reddit too (r/sino), but they haven't banned it. Do you offer them the same accusation?

If I am being honest, maybe but probably not. Lemmy, being federated, means that anyone else on another instance would also have access to that instance. You definitely can force an application to be able to sign up there, but I am unsure about stopping other users from posting and accessing the information. I've not set up a server myself as a note.

My main concerns come from a few places.

  1. The information you would be providing on lemmy is likely considered to be owned by the school you work for as they are technically paying you for it. I would ask someone about the legality based on where you are.
  2. Personal information could be, even accidentally, posted and available to many users.
  3. There are likely a lot of school approved options, though likely not free. They should, however, have the correct level of security, reliability, etc.

Overall, it's something that may need a more in depth risk vs reward assessment, especially for potentially containing PII.

It absolutely is something they would normally run into. I work on maintaining a massive application; think 60+ teams of 6, each extremely specialized and minimal overlap. Almost 75% of my job is predicting issues and avoiding them. Peer testing draws on this a ton as well. They just continue to plainly show that they don't care. Time and time again, year after year, they continue to have the exact same issues and do fuck all about it.
