Just ask your ISP for more upload speed (and pay for it). It's a thing you can do.

Also, most importantly. Assembly.

Nonsense. Rust is clearly the superior blood type.

Cat girls are not furries. And I'm willing to die on this hill.

Why would they ever force this?

The purpose of MFA is to:

Mitigate using the same password on multiple sites and one of them has a data breach.

Mitigate the impact of keyloggers/other kinds of malware.

Mitigate the bad security of bad passwords.

Mitigate the password manager's own data breach.

If you have at least two braincells, you will chose a unique and secure password for your password manager. That's the point of password managers, that you only have to remember 1 password so it can be unique and strong. Also, a password manager (specially open source) should have almost perfect security, so them being hacked should not be a concern.

The only thing MFA is doing on password managers is to mitigate malware. Which I don't think is a good justification to force everyone the hassle of MFA.

Fine if the wanna give the option of MFA, but don't force it on everyone.

For those interested in Spain politics.

Spain is divided in autonomous communities (AC), they are like states of USA.

There was an enormous flood in the AC of Valencia. Since the right wing rules over that AC, they handled it horribly. The left wing government and other ACs offered aid, however Valencia refused it, multiple times.

Of course, the right wingers are blaming it on the left wing government for not doing enough.

It used to be a serious offense to stage a coup.

More like because the hardware cost is much higher.

Devs work on an open source project. They usually don't expect to get paid for their time, so the fact that "python allows for more features in the same time" doesn't play as much of a role (I don't even think this is a fact, more like a theory).

The hardware does have to get paid though. There's no one out there building servers and generating energy for them for free. So less the hardware costs, the better.

Instances AFAIK run on donations. If there are not enough donations to keep the servers up, there is no Lemmy.

Reddit could afford to be on python because they ran on VC money and made losses year after year. I don't think that a donation-based platform can afford that.

It cost them at least one lifelong customer.

If you need to use bash a lot just to learn 2 "keywords", then it's not a good language.

I have looked at bash scripts in the past, and even written some (small amount). I had to look up -z and -n every time. I've written a lot more python than bash, that's for sure. But even if I don't write python for a year, when needed I can just write an entire python script without minimal doc lookups. I just need to search if the function I want is part of syd, os or path.

The first time I want to do an else if my IDE will mark it red and I'll write eliffrom then on, same thing if I try to use { }.

If a bash script requires at least one array and one if statement, I can write the entire thing in python faster than I can search how to do those 2 things in bash.

Well, to get a boolean out of a bit array you have to do some operations. So at first it doesn't make it more performant. Compilers probably don't automatically make them bitarrays because of that.

However, the memory savings means less cache used. And a cache miss is way more expensive than those bit operations. So they should be more performant. I'm sure someone out there has done the actual research and there's a good reason why compilers don't make all booleans bitarrays.
