Programming@programming.dev•[Solved] Any opensource, themed CV generators out there?
4·4 days agoSame. Well, not mercurial, but CV in latex. Works great. It really gives a ton of control over typesetting, so it is easy to make sure each page is filled completely.

2·5 days agoI have a blue tip ‘57 Superspeed that I pair with Feather blades, but it isn’t even close to my favorite bit of kit. My favorite is the silver-tip badger brush. So nice.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Which public figure most closely shares your views?
42·9 days agoI used to feel this way and still do to some extent. But he has lost me on the Israel conflict. Certainly on religion itself and philosophy I agree with him a lot. Much like how, conversely, with Mehdi Hassan, I agree a
butbit politically, but not on religion.The only people I can never recall taking issue with are Hitch and Fry, and even they probably have views I don’t like.
I’m really hoping they do the Laconia story now that the requisite years have passed. Or at least enough that the actors will look correct.
Fair, but I was making a general comment with tongue firmly in cheek. I didn’t mean to denigrate anybody. Certainly not any individual. It was broad commentary on the general, though certainly not ubiquitous, view on LLM’s in the larger communities on Lemmy.
Seems pragmatic and well-written. But it doesn’t say “LLM’s are hot garbage in all circumstances and people who use them are all smelly turds,” so I’m guessing there will be backlash in this community.

Technology@lemmy.world•Student Teacher Sent a Private Snapchat Complaining About Her Workday. An Hour Later, Police Pulled Up to Her School.English
2·10 days agoTo clarify, I’m not saying any demographic is above poor privacy concerns. But there is a subtle difference between laziness / difficulty understanding how to mitigate the threat and the believe that it isn’t a threat but an okay behavior, however subtle that difference is. I don’t want to sound like an old man tilting at windmills and blaming things on the youth. I actually think it is a problem that they are just suffering, not responsible for.

1701·11 days agoMy guess is most are very young. Goes to show our civil liberties worldwide, especially since 9/11, have eroded tremendously. Young people have grown up in a world where privacy is a joke and government spying is a foregone conclusion.

Technology@lemmy.world•The 14 steps it takes to open my office door with a new phoneEnglish
6·13 days agoMaybe, but that number seems arbitrary. Keys are a bit easier to misplace, but phones are more likely to break in a drop. Both need replaced infrequently. When a key is lost, often locks must be rekeyed, meaning new keys for everybody; maybe that’s 5:1. One allows specific keys for specific users. There are of course pros and cons to each. I’m just saying listing all these steps seems to belabor the point.

Technology@lemmy.world•The 14 steps it takes to open my office door with a new phoneEnglish
211·13 days agoFor a first time open on a new phone sure. But then your comparing it to make requisition for new key blanks, await delivery from manufacturer (could even include mining and smelting), send blanks for cut, cut key, await delivery, document who received which serial number, deliver key to you, put key in key hole, twist key… I mean, I get they’re making a point, but I think it is a bit over inclusive. Login to lock app, unlock door.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What was the best generation of consoles in your opinion?
7·14 days agoFor me Twilight Princess is the GOAT of single player games, so I agree. And I started gaming at the beginning, so it isn’t just nostalgia for me.

2·15 days agoI’m not saying that wrt phones only. But credit cards get skimmed and various other atm pranks. Loads of infrastructure takedowns. Zero days released into the wild with viruses attached. All sorts of shenanigans.

Programming@programming.dev•Do any of you Windows users leverage CLI tools much?
1·16 days agoI think many if not most are using WSL, so the interfaces are generally the same.









I mean no offense by this at all, but I wouldn’t because it would indicate a poor understanding of cryptography to me as a user. Either that or being intentionally misleading. In either case, probably unsafe for the user. There does not need to be an extension to encrypt content such that the server never has access to it. It can be encrypted and sent to the host with a key the server never possesses.
