Huge if true.

I think you've answered your own question - be less meticulous. Oh, and memorise less.

A good programmer knows where their knowledge boundaries are. For example, if you're working in JavaScript, you probably don't need to know bit-shifting.

A good programmer doesn't know every feature; they know where to go to find that information. They know how to read the manual of an unfamiliar feature.

The most important thing you can do is do practical work. Build a website. Try new things. Look up how to implement something and then do it yourself. Find a project that interests you - like building your own website - that'll stave off the fatigue.

You don't need to memorise how to implement a linked-list - you need experience in building.

Good luck.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Cracked black pepper. Then either shaved Parmigiano-Reggiano or nutritional yeast.

Basically, all the savoury flavours at once - and not as boring as plain salt.

Not that I know of. And I don't think a Lemmy user can block (for example) a Mastodon user.

What?! That boggles my mind - and would probably break my brain.

Cheers! It is actually a very lightly customised version of Atkinson. See https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2022/08/an-update-to-the-atkinson-hyperlegible-font/

Oooof! Yeah, I don't think I could cope with that.

I used mine to inspect the solar panels on our roof - https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2017/03/inspecting-solar-panels-using-a-drone/

I wanted to see if they were covered in bird shit. They weren't.

Note when I did this, it was legal to fly a drone that close to private property. I don't think it still is.

Could be worse. Could be a Nokia T9 predictive text input!

Yes! I finished the original one. Slowly working my way through the new campaigns. Great on Android.

I also built this very silly schematic for turning scrap into EVERYTHING! https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2022/02/mindustry-scrap-to-everything-schematic/

I think that's a lovely idea - which doesn't work in reality. At some point someone will need to be cast out. That can't be done by peer pressure, because scammers, spammers, and griefers don't care about that.

Individual blocks also don't work because they leave unaware users open to being abused.

Sure, you could have a town council vote on a block, or have software which blocks a user for all if they have been blocked >=N times, but that's still moderation.

One underrated thing that keeps the village going is the police. Or, in our case, the mods.

I know, I know! Everyone hates the mods - with their over-inflated egos and unaccountable practices and their capricious banning of innocuous subjects.

But life without the mods means a village where rioters run rampant.
