Why bother? They're safe at room temperature unless they've already been refrigerated, might as well use that fridge space for some that actually benefits from the cold.

At room temperature they're good for a month or two. If you want long term storage you might as well prep and freeze them which will last you about a year, or there's a ton of other long-term preservation techniques.

"Better economy" is vague and nebulous, it's my belief that if someone tells you that's why they voted they way they did they either didn't care enough to actually look into their candidates' policies or they're trying to hide the real reason they voted. And it's very unlikely if their primary concern is the economy they wouldn't bother looking into economic policy beforehand. If that's what they truly voted for they'd have specific concrete talking points instead, eg changes to some specific tax or changes in funding for some specific type of business.

The same goes for candidates with a platform of "better economy". Is it a better economy if everyone still struggles as they do now but the people at the top get infinitely richer? Is it a better economy if all big businesses fail but more people now have enough to live healthily and safely? "The economy" is too broad, it means nothing. Specific policy or it's all bullshit.

Nonsense article. They claim Americans "work harder" because they have longer hours, no regulation, and no legal requirement for time off. In other words, they're closer to slaves.

This is true for all public holidays in the UK, there's a (usually) fixed number of public holidays but the dates are flexible.

They're also included in the minimum 28 days paid time off too, meaning if you're a full time worker and have to work on a bank holiday your employer is legally required to offer an extra day off somewhere else instead, either a fixed date or added to your holiday allowance. Conversely, the "extra" day off you get when a monarch keels over may be subtracted from your holiday allowance for the year. This is also why my employer is allowed to follow English bank holidays despite having next to no presence in England; the number is fixed but the dates are not.

Trans men and castrated men exist, I don't think it's the balls.

The T being added in is what? Maybe fifteen years old?

This didn't sound right to me, I'm sure I heard LGBT more than 15 years ago, so I looked it up. According to Wikipedia LGBT was first used around 1988 but OED says 1992, other sources say it became widespread in either the 90s or 00s (varies by source). So 15 is a lower bound for widespread usage but I don't think we can get much more specific than "15 to 35 years ago".

If you're pressing a button and want to cancel you can pretty much universally just move off the button before releasing the press and it won't trigger the action. Works 99% of the time with a mouse, almost as often with a touch interface. Some custom-coded buttons will action on start press (not great imo) and some buttons do some other action on a long press, but if you're holding it and nothing else has happened just dragging off is safe enough.

Seems to be a federation issue between programming.dev and lemmy.world, as far as I can tell every lemmy.world post and all comments under them are showing up with 0 score but other instances are fine.

Yep, looks like it's all working from this end now

 

I signed in this morning and checked my profile to find I'm not actually here. Did anyone else accidentally stop existing overnight?

But at some point, it’ll either generate original content on its own, or rely on content already created by other AI.

What you're describing there is called model collapse and it's not a good thing. A generative AI ouroboros accumulates error until its output is useless.

I did already back up the claim with a source, but okay:

US: Senior 128k USD, mid-level 94k USD
CH: Senior 118k CHF (~139k USD), mid-level 95k CHF (~112k USD)
DE: Senior 72k EUR (~80k USD), mid-level 58k EUR (~65k USD)
NL: Senior 69k EUR (~77k USD), mid-level 52k EUR (~58k USD)

Yes, US and Switzerland are outliers.

100k USD per engineer assumes they're exclusively hiring from US and Switzerland, that's not a general "developed country" thing. US is an outlier.

Not sure exactly how long this has been happening, but it's been bugging me for the last week at least.

Running Firefox 129.0 (64-bit) on Linux Mint, it seems like the login session is just constantly expiring. Every time I boot up my machine the first time I open programming.dev I have to sign in again. Closing all programming.dev tabs and navigating back to programming.dev without closing Firefox seems to always preserve the session and not require a new sign-in.

~~Closing all Firefox windows then opening Firefox and navigationg to programming.dev is a semi-reliable way to reproduce, about 75% of the time it requires a new sign-in even when I'd signed in less then a minute ago before closing the window.~~ Further testing shortly before submitting this post and those steps no longer reproduce the issue, I'm signed in even after closing the window. Maybe it's a recurring transient issue with login service?

Potentially relevant add-ons are UBlock Origin (0 blocks, shouldn't be an issue) and Privacy Badger (also 0 trackers blocked). I'm connected through VPN, but the issue seems to appear regardless of whether I stay on the same VPN server or switch servers. Firefox reports Content-Security-Policy issues but these seem unrelated and also appear when the session is successfully preserved.

Possibly helpful, occasionally when I open programming.dev I'll see it's signed out then automatically signs in after a second or so; this might have been a known Lemmy issue at some point with delayed authentication as a (now insufficient) solution. A good chance that's a dead-end, might be worth checking anyway.

Edit: It's worth noting that I'm also signed in via the android Jerboa app on another device and don't get signed out there. This could definitely be relevant if it turns out the Jerboa session somehow interferes with the Firefox session.
