I've never heard this argument before. Do you have any good articles or books to recommend on the subject?

[Serious question] Did Microsoft need to fundamentally change something, and that is why they back tracked on their Win10 evergreen promise? Or is this just a cash grab?

What is in this thumbnail picture? I can't see it in the article.

Not news. Just stating the current policy that has always been in place.

Shame. I think these instances just need a core group to get things moving. Then they build momentum.

Hypocrite alert: I have not done this.

Depends on the philosophy you are reading.

I like the stoics because it's about being a virtuous person. Many of the core texts we're written 2000 years ago but still hold up (mostly).

A lot of the teachings were incorporated into the bible but stoicism itself is religion light, although some of the authors held religious beliefs their sense of right and wrong wasn't predicated on eternal damnation.

However, you could read some of their writings as pro suicide, so trigger warning.

Is there a good philosophy instance on Lemmy?

Idiot. You obviously have no idea about the logistics of launching a bath into space. You'd need to send a bucket on a rocket (aero dynamic).

Put the ISS into the bucket, fill with water, then squeeze the ISS and look for bubbles.

Fill the ISS with water and you'll be able to see the leak.

Thanks for that. I'll move this up the list.

Help with training plan (self.selfhosted)
submitted 1 month ago by anonymous111 to c/selfhosted
 

Hello self hosters, I was wondering if you could fact check my training plan?

I work in Tech but haven't done any hands on programming work since school (visual basic). This was very basic, I built a calculator program.

I've got an idea for an app and think this is a good learning opportunity.

My goals are:

  1. Learn programming skills that I can use for personal projects in the future i.e. making apps, using programs fron github, hosting containers to run Plex etc.

  2. Learn skills that can help in my current job (I work with Engineers but don't do any actual coding).

I am planning to learn the following, more or less, in order:

  • Docker (in the past I've had a lot of trouble trying to code in Virtual Box).
  • Linux command line
  • JavaScript boot camp. Good for coding a single app that will work across, browser IOS and Android.

*Typescript - extension of JS.

*SQL - for apps that require a query to a database

*node.js - for REST APIs and cloud server infrastructure

I may also learn these languages/ methods as I need them:

*Git *Terraform

I appreciate this will be a lot of work and take a long time to master, however I think it is worth the investment from a hobby and professional perspective.

Any recommendations or comments on the above?

Any pointers where I've gone wrong or tips/ideas are greatly appreciated!

Custom Maps Help (self.openstreetmap)
 

I've been playing around with Google Maps lately to create custom maps.

I don't like google but have no experience with any other apps and have never tried mapping of any sort before.

I'm trying to create a map layer(s) that has historic sites, stone circles, woodland, cemeteries, UNESCO sites etc. So if I'm traveling I can stop and see them.

I've created my own Google Map using lists of sites from Wikipedia. This has gone ok but leads to a lot of data cleansing and the functionality isn't great.

I've seen this website but it isn't as complete as the Wikipedia text lists ive imported: https://www.hmdb.org/

I'm completely new to this and have no experience. Are there any good resources out there for me to use or contribute to?

I'd like to de-google as much as possible.

P.S. do I need to enable developer mode or root my phone to install open street map now?

Thanks!

Can anyone recommend some SciFi books with well written female characters?

I've recently read Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie and am looking for well constructed, non male, well thought out characters.
