Nova Launcher's Sad End: Founder Says Development Is Over in c/android@lemmy.world

I switched to Smart Launcher. Tried all the recommended launchers for some time but none met my needs. After some time getting used to it and changing the settings, Smart launcher is the one.

What's your experience with Nim? in c/programming@programming.dev

I have no idea about Nim but have you checked Go (Golang)? It does the things that you need: single binary, cross compile, easy to learn (except methods on an object are a bit weird at first).

Next to that it is also stable, not dying soon and lots of dependencies to extend the language.

Anyway, if you like Nim, go for it.

YSK that Gerrymandering allows politicians to determine election outcomes by changing electoral maps. In most western countries, it's illegal. Gerrymandering is common in the United States in c/youshouldknow@lemmy.world

Why even have the system with districts? Just calculate all the votes and see who wins? If you live in a place where most people vote x, why even bother to vote y. Your vote will go straight in the bin.
