  Why would their experience be relevant?

  Partially, because experience in an area means one can understand the answer, but to a probably bigger part see below.

  You could be nicer about it.

  It read to me like they asked as if they know better than everyone else, and were ranting about others doing it wrong. But that was actually an assumption on my part, and may simply be their style, or even me completely misreading things. So thanks for calling me out on it.

  Relational Databases can be in-memory? This question sounds a bit like you have little to no experience with data or databases.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What non-IDE tekst editor do you use?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:
  • Large files or no formatting required: EmEditor (Windows only, proprietary, expensive, but fast :D)
  • Formatting some file: VsCode
  • SqlLite queries over CSVs: Notepad++
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there something better than SQL?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Alas, that’s not what I said

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there something better than SQL?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  How? I never worked in a big company, but do they just have absolute beginners without any guidance writing code that’s then never checked?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there something better than SQL?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe a hot take, but if SQL injection is still an issue, you have no business developing anything. This is a solved issue and had been for years.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which software do you mostly use for programming, and why?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  A few years ago, mainly VS with R#, nowadays, Jetbrains Rider, Webstorm, intelliJ in that order.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OP finds vulnerability where a forum sends you your password in plaintext over email and everyone misses the forest for the trees⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not “side tracking” when the thing being corrected is literally in the title of the post.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you want to have pretty links, can add linking to a Lemmy community or Mastodon account⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Please don’t hardcode the instance! Instead of linking to https://lemmy.ca/c/canada you should use /c/canada@lemmy.ca so it works properly for people on more than one instance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nue – A React/Vue/Vite/Astro Alternative⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Very marketing have, which I just say turned me off at first. People on HN were a bit more open minded, so there’s some interesting discussion over there: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37507419

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Suddenly seeing more hexbear posts. Did we re-federate with them?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  They tend to be very vocal in calling out racism, sexism, homophobia and other forms of bigotry, which has made certain users very angry

  Uhh, it’s more that they are fascists than calling out any kind of racism.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A question about the CCleaner⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Windows file cleaner, it’s built-in. Search for “clean”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A question about the CCleaner⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Scammy companies pay for sponsoring, and scammy creators accept that sponsoring. Pretty sad for a paid course.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A question about the CCleaner⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t use CCleaner. It’s adware/bundleware/spyware, and it can damage your computer unless you know what you are doing (in which case you would use something else anyway).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is this instance federated with HexBear.net?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The difference for me (single user instance, defederated from hexbear and not the nazis yet), is that I’ve never seen the Nazis comment on any posts, but I saw the hexbear fascists comment en masse on tons of posts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is programming.dev federated with exploding heads?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  FWIW, I (single user instance) defederated from hexbear and lemmygrad, but not exploding heads. Not because I think nazis are better than authoritarian fascists, but because hexbear and lemmygrad users are everywhere, while the nazis never seem to comment on anything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the need for so many instances?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  exposure to specific legal compartments.

  Allowing randoms to register, would vastly increase your legal responsibility, from both a GDPR perspective, but also from a legal responsibility for content perspective. I don’t think a small privacy win makes that worth it.

  Your profile contains your post history to many of your communities.

  That is true, but that is only those you post to, I have many communities I’m subscribed to but never posted to.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨anytype — decentralized, p2p, e2ee 'Notion' like app⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, wow. Normally, when I see a notion-like app, it’s one that has one little feature of notion and nothing else. But this actually seems like it is like Notion. Now if the performance is not as abysmal as in the original, I’ll actually use it :D
