- Comment on The Verge shows how Google search is useless 1 month ago:
I still sign up with them when I’m researching bigger, or long-lasting, purchases. Cars, washing machine, and that sort of thing. I’m always a little annoyed at the price, but the content is SO MUCH better than any other online review source that I’m always happy with my decision in the end. Reddit comments are probably second, but I’ve found those to be littered with what seem to me to be suspiciously positive reviews for items that are not significantly better than their competition. I feel like I need to dial up my critical nature to 10 to fight against the echo chamber and/or the covert advertising.
- Comment on Apple iPhone sales decline 10% in first three months of 2024 1 month ago:
Yes. Lemmy loves to trash on Apple, but this is actually something it’s hard to criticize them over. Especially compared with any other consumer electronics manufacturer.
- Comment on Can we all agree that whatever version of predictive text we have nowadays is crap, and has been for a long time? 2 months ago:
This sounds like user error to me. Hold the spacebar, then drag your thumb to move the cursor exactly where you want it.
- Comment on And you're telling me that code interviews don't work... 2 months ago:
Wow! Thanks for taking the time explain all of that. Makes complete sense.
- Comment on And you're telling me that code interviews don't work... 2 months ago:
I’m not a programmer, just an occasional hobbyist. Can you fill me in on why the second way is better? Is it because it’s asking for “all numbers between x and y” instead of “all integers between x and y”? I probably would have done it the first way assuming they meant integers, maybe incorrectly.
