Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•When was the first time you used a USB flash drive?
1·5 days agoEvery time I flash Linux or a BIOS update onto a new computer. I can’t think of another use case other than OS installs. Most file transfers are easier through the cloud and if it’s really large where that would be slow/expensive/inconvenient then you’re usually using a hard drive or ssd.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is javascript the most versatile programming language when it comes to building a wide variety of things?
7·14 days agoIf this is your first language I wouldn’t focus on variety too much. Just pick something and start building. Once you pick up one language, the next one will be easier. On that note, Typescript (JavaScript with type enforcement) is a great first language. It’s multi-paradigm so you get exposure to lots of concepts and can use it in many different ways. That means you can learn tons of concepts without having to learn the syntax of another language first.
Make sure you use typescript, not JS. I’m assuming this is a learning experience for you. You’ll learn about type enforcement, get much more out of your IDE, build safer programs, and be better prepared for your next language.
DM if you have any questions about getting started as a developer.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL there is a sequel (technically a prequel) to How The Grinch Stole Christmas called Halloween is Grinch NightEnglish
12·15 days agoI’m so glad someone else knows about this and also hates it haha. I went on a tinder date once, and in the texting stage the guy told me Grinch night was his favorite movie. I saw how short it was and tried to watch it before meeting him so we had something to talk about.
Horrible, I couldn’t finish it. He was also a boring film nerd so that may have had something to do with it. I wanted to roast him so hard for that trash ass pick of a favorite movie.

I’ve seen so much hate for .ml. Can someone explain it to me? It’s one of the first to popup on https://join-lemmy.org/instances and their front page seems to be tech stuff and some politics.
