Recently, I ran out of mobile data on my phone, and I was forced to browse at a significantly reduced speed. It was so slow that it was practically unusable, except for messaging apps. So, I developed a platform in the form of a search engine that allows browsing and accessing information while exchanging a negligible amount of...

I’m looking to get a lemmy bot figured out for posting sports scores in real-time (or near it) like Reddit had for NHL games. The lemmy api reference states that rust has the api as a loadable library, but I’ve only ever done C/C++ and python. Anything Coursera style to get a basic overview of how to get started in Rust?...

Recently I've experienced a significant increase in merge conflicts at the company I'm currently working at (we hired a couple of junior data scientists and some are not that familiar with git)...

I looked into the lemmy src, and what is supposed to be a CRUD API has several layers of abstraction. Same at work, where we have hexagonally structured apps where following any sort of logic is literally impossible. What are your thoughts?

For me, it’s CTE’s. I find it amazing to complete a calculation with clear intermediate steps, and goes a long way towards convincing people to use SQL rather than Excel to perform calculations on large tables of data....

This thread delves into contemplating the concept of “Melosynthos,” more aligned towards being a compiler generator rather than strictly a parser generator....

Hi. Is there some fully FOSS version of Intellij IDEA CE? Because the official download includes some proprietary bits.

I’ve watched Bro code on YouTube for learning html and CSS and I enjoyed his explaining, teaching and such. After i completed his YouTube course I went onto numerous different sources to learn more. I found that he teached me most of the stuff that I found afterwards. When I was happy with my html and CSS skill to the point I...

I find this really useful since it hides most of the ads and other annoyances GitHub has now. Luckily I don’t really use GitHub that much but when I’m forced to interact with it, this makes it more pleasant experience.

what is the best way to learn C ? I know basic python but would like to learn C, I tried searching online but couldn’t find a good resource that’s good for a beginner like me. any suggestions ?

I want to start a discussion of MIT vs GPL and see what you all think

After the (temporary) defederation announcement of earlier i checked the Lemmy repo to see if there was already a ticket on the federation limiting option like Mastodon's that people mentioned Lemmy doesn't yet have. Not only i didn't find it, i also saw that there's about 200+ open tickets of variable importance. Also saw that...

I always wish I wouldn’t have to pull in python/pandas to do simple data transformations on smaller local datasets/csv files and stick with sqlite. But then I tend to quickly hit a problem that seems to require dynamic SQL. Anything in between SQL and a general programming language that is made for transforming tabular data?

Howdy guys! Just like most of you, I have been in a never ending quest to find the perfect font and the color theme. Did you guys ever find what you were looking for?...

Have you ever wondered what happens behind the scenes when you write a C program? How does your code transform from lines of text into a fully functional binary executable? If you’ve been curious about the intricacies of the C program compilation process, you’ve come to the right place.
