Think of your closest friend or family member. Do you “believe in” them?

It’s very rare that you find anyone on Lemmy/Reddit that actually takes more than eight seconds to critically think about the significance of “religion,” and not just immediately monkey brain into “religion is for idiots.” Alas, I hoped that this particular group think would’ve stayed behind.

A belief is not a religion, and a religion is not a belief. Any one person can be varying degrees of “religious,” and any one person can hold varying levels of belief in a higher power.

I don’t have much else to add because your comment was pretty well thought-out.

“Misuse of the Oxford comma, bad speling and taking jokes too far.”

I understood it.

I politely disrespect your opinion

No, I mean I say the entire thing to myself. “Bless me, thank me, I’m welcome.”

Middle school me started doing it and I’ve put in no effort to stop.

Ever since middle school, my “bless you” interaction has always been:

• “Bless you.”
• Them: “Thank you.”
• “You’re welcome.”

And whenever I sneeze, it’s “bless me, thank me, I’m welcome.”

Thank you for attending my TEDtalk.

Yes. I call it my “birthtime,” even though that name technically shadows another data point.

It says it right there. He’s 4+ years old.

Interesting. I mean, if it’s practical for the usage of your computer, then I would say it counts. What kind of information do you have displayed for your server? Just metadata, or logs?

Edit: posted before I could see your edit. But yeah, definitely checks out. I think I would get so distracted by that, but at most I really only need to be paying close attention to changes in three places at a time, at which point I’ve got to do some window-focus-fu with PowerToys. Cool answer!

Oh, neat! Yeah, I think I’ve seriously talked myself into getting a small third monitor. Using it for communication apps is a good idea, and I can definitely see having that when I’m just relaxing, or if I’m collaborating. Thanks for your response!

In a few words, I’m reiterating the point that a professional software developer =/= professional cyber security expert. Yes, I know that I should, for example, implement auth; but I’m not writing the auth process. I’m just gonna use a library.

No one’s saying to ignore it.

If I own and run a sandwich shop, I don’t need to be on the farm picking and processing the wheat to make the flour that goes into my bread. I could do that, but then I’d be a farmer, a miller, and a sandwich maker. All I need to know is that I have good quality flour or bread so that I can make damn good sandwiches.

It’s a cool experiment, but:

Over time, the negative feedback from these misfires has trained me to type more slowly and thoughtfully, burdening my mind with uncertainty that impedes my natural typing rhythm and unconscious flow of thoughts onto the computer screen.

I get using the modifiers as a potential accessibility solution. But if you’re otherwise able to type on the keyboard just fine, this is easily counterproductive.

In my opinion, any button in terms of graphical UI design simply dispatches an action with no arguments regarding state. There doesn’t exist a dichotomy between a “toggle” mechanic and a “standard” button as far as the button itself is concerned.

Whether or not you want to update the visual representation of that button is a separate concern.
