New to programming
  • There are plenty of "Learn to code" courses online. Khan Academy has a course though it is focused on web development, and many users here will turn up there nose, but it's as good a starting point as anything else

    If you are dedicated I'm sure you could learn how to write code in a language, learn how different parts of programming languages work and build a little project in 6 months.

    "Like literally a pro" depends on where you are looking to be hired by. With no experience or formal training, it will be rather difficult to land a FAANG job. But of you can demonstrate aptitude, and willingness to learn, a smaller operation meet give you a shot.

    Good luck, I hope you stick with it :D

  • Air New Zealand becomes first major carrier to drop climate goal
  • You make an excellent point. I was merely pointing out it's not a silver bullet.

    And I believe the goals that Air NZ was targeting were not "net" but actual emission targets. So they cannot simply offset their way out of them.

    Honestly, having them declare failure early is a better outcome than getting to the zero hour and saying "we can't do it" this means they are actually tracking their progress and taking the promises seriously.

  • Roblox’s Pedophile Problem
  • I mean, an open and seemingly poorly censored market place of assets and "experiences" targetted at children sounds like a recipe for disaster to begin with. Many parents aren't technologically adept enough to look past the website, seeing it's marketed at children and going "must be fine".

    This isn't a defence, but the world gets more and more complicated every day and people are just asked to deal with it... Seems like many governments have just given up trying to regulate anything, and therefore there's no incentive for trash companies like Roblox to put in any protections.

  • Do you use VS Code?
  • Funny to read VSCode described as an IDE.

    Where I work, I'm the weird one for preferring VSCode over Visual Sudio or Rider.

    I prefer using a terminal to run build tasks and execute tests and do version control, and have mostly Language Server stuff integrated into the editor.

  • Let's blame the dev who pressed "Deploy" - by Dmitry Kudryavtsev
  • That's the crazy thing. This config can't ever been booted on a win10/11 machine before it was deployed to the entire world.

    Not once, during development of the new rule, or in any sort of testing CS does. Then once again, never booted by MS during whatever verification process they (should) have before signing.

    The first win11/10 to execute this code in the way it was intended to be used, was a customer's machine.

    Insane.

  • Ministry of Justice workers call researcher a 'bitch' in online conversation
  • This is possibly a mismanagement problem.
    "You must deliver this project in this timeframe, no matter what additional requests come through"

    So workers see these requests as an impediment to their progress.
    This doesn't excuse the staffers behavior, but I imagine they were under some sort of pressure.

  • Call to Action: Fediverse Media Server
  • I believe this article is asking for a centralized media server for his multiple Fediverse deployments.

    Say I post an image here on Lemmy, then jump on to Mastodon to toot it out to whatever followers I have there. So that exact same image is stored twice.

    I believe the ask is to build a system to store and deduplicate media posted across instances.

  • New to specialty coffee, my setup so far

    Picked up an Aeropress and a Comandante C40.

    Also pictured is my very cheap kitchen scales, has been accurate enough to measure beans and water.

    I know Comandante are expensive, my justification was they are a very well regarded brand and I wanted something I could rely on as I played with different brewing techniques.

    Been having a great time, producing some lovely cups, and all cheaper per cup then the Nespresso I was drinking before
