With the new Mac, on the otherwise of the laptop there is a 3.5mm combo jack, so you can still use your IEMs and headphones.

Programming@programming.dev•How Good at Math Does a Programmer Need to Be?
8·2 years agoDepends on what kind of programmer.
If you’re doing data engineering/science (more of an adjacent field), you need to know linear and probability pretty well to build models, or have data harvested in ways that can be put into vectors.
If you’re doing relational DB stuff (like SQL) set theory helps a lot.
Basic boolean operations in general is also good to know. You don’t need to go too deep in the weeds of boolean math unless you’re also doing a lot of hardware-level stuff.
Any field you go into (not just programming), I would say just basic math for regular financial competency is good to know. Also to analyze your budgeting, your costs, time spent, effort needed, etc.

politics @lemmy.world•Harris Tried to Win Over Republicans. Democratic Support Collapsed Instead.
121·2 years agoStudent debt was not a campaign platform he ran on, it was something he did during his presidency.
He did run on Green New Deal and the original proposal that later became the $2 trillion Infrastructure investment/bill/plan.
But to your point, yes he ran on platforms that people got excited. Both of those platforms were new economic opportunities for people in a time when people when much of the labor class was jobless from COVID.

14·2 years agoAlready have, will continue to.
At further inspection they’re also wearing Spongebob lapel pins.
These still don’t change the fact that I am more confused by that than anything else.
I think I’m more confused by spongebob playing in the background more than anything.

politics @lemmy.world•MAGA is straight up losing it after Taylor Swift’s Harris endorsement
6·2 years agoNo no no, you see, when the left does it, it’s cancel culture and literally communism. When the right does it, it’s voting with your dollar, literally capitalism. Not comparable at all!!

politics @lemmy.world•MAGA is straight up losing it after Taylor Swift’s Harris endorsement
101·2 years agoI’ve seen some graphs / extrapolations where if young voters (18-24) voted at the same rate as older voters (55+), Harris would win by a pretty sizable margin.
That almost never happens, but Swift has a huge influence on young voter turnout.
Woah buddy, no need to get all political.

Technology@lemmy.world•Research shows more than 80% of AI projects fail, wasting billions of dollars in capital and resources: ReportEnglish
21·2 years agoVery different. Restaurants don’t buy up every food resource out there or cause artificial scarcity to make them the only option. Groceries are still a cheaper and healthier option 95% of the time.

RetroGaming@lemmy.world•It's honestly good advice, but I much prefer original hardware when possible.English
8·2 years agoI actually do. Upscaling, fast forwarding, modding, cheats, save states are all nice QoLs. A lot of emulators for these retro consoles are pretty platform independent too, so I can run them from anything from a PC, a handheld device, phone, other gaming consoles or smart fridge with my choice of peripherals.

301·2 years agoBecause she’s both. Her mom is Indian, and her dad is Afro-Jamaican. That makes her ethnicity both Indian and Afro-Jamacian. There are people out there with mixed ethnicities.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Linux back at 4.04% on the Desktop. Windows went below 73%
1·2 years agoI just saw the news for Nexus mods like 20 minutes after I posted that. Hopefully it can be integrated well soon.
But yes, over time, things will continue to get better. Even Nvidia finally started working on open drivers for their GPUs.

A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•This is going to set back medical trust for years
2·2 years agoIirc, his license to practice is the decision of the medical board, not the courts.
I’m not a lawyer, but I think if the courts find him guilty, the courts decide the fine and jail time. But if the medical board finds HIPPA violations, they decide what happens to his medical license.
He can potentially beat the court charges because many courts have been stacked to be hard-line/alt right wing from Trump’s appointment of judges. But that’s different from the board.
This meme format has a lot of potential
Kind of will. There are already templates on demand for things like generating unit tests as you code. They’re pretty robust already, and have aside from a few things (or edge cases), I don’t have to do much code refactoring or fixing them.
They already save me several hours a week from manually setting up full ones. Haven’t delved into other stuff they can do, but I’m sure it would only be more useful with time.
I can very easily see companies looking at the time save and thinking “we can downsize”.





You know what? I might even ring that bell icon to be notified.
