News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
I know several humans and none of them are FontMasterFlex. They must be a bot.
Good enough for me!
But I've also never seen FontMasterFlex and a human in the same room. So there is that.
I would get accused on being a bot when talking about specific topics. For example Ukraine war or some Chinese topic. I wonder if it's bots calling other people bots. Muddy the waters.
Astroturfing is rampant and is only going to get worse from here on out. Don't trust anything you read
Hexadecimal is an easier transition from life as a human to life as a bot. 48657861646563696D616C20697320616E20656173696572207472616E736974696F6E2066726F6D206C69666520617320612068756D616E20746F206C696665206173206120626F742E

are you neurodivergent or is english a foreign language? for some reason those folks tend to get labeled as bots.
Neurodivergent means anyone with a medical condition that could be seen as brain pathways either being disrupted, or gone, or rerouted. A few examples would be AD(H)D, Autism Spectrum Disorder (Including things such as Asperger's), and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
Edit: Changed Autism to ASD, and switched out Schizophrenia to OCD as it's more apt for the term as a whole.
Having proper diagnoses for people help them get care and treatment. It's better than calling them all "stupid" and ignoring their struggles, which has been the case for decades.
Most of these "fancy new labels" you're hearing lately are just recognizing people, so they can be included in society and treated with dignity.
A good amount of the conditions lumped together as “neurodiverse” are either comorbid or share some traits. It’s reasonable people with these separate conditions may still want to connect with each other because of the commonalities between them. Nobody’s forgoing the words “ADHD”, “autism”, or “OCD” for the more generic “neurodiverse”, they only use “neurodiverse” in place of “people who have ADHD, autism, OCD, or [insert other conditions here]”.
In this case, it's mainly a catch-all for folks to easily find help and or others with their conditions.
who am i to judge?
¿Por Qué No Los Dos?
I was accused too. Till they saw my 11+ years of old comments, then they thought I was a sold account.
I don't know if it's scary or stupid.
wait basically, they are trying to justify anything to attack you with when they are losing. no way you should stop, just keep slaying them in the arguments.
Because cornered redditors love ad-hominem attacks and "bot" and "shill" are particularly popular because they can be applied in just about any context.
Yes.
Oh
Experience is worth a lot. Even idiots with a lot of experience can be very good at something. Smarter people need less experience to be good at something - but they still need it. As for changing technology - IT changes but the principles remain the same. Plus there's a lot of soft skills that never change. Being able to talk to people, manage expectations, guide clients in the right directions, etc.. That's worth a lot more in the long term than being up to date with every new tool or framework.
nah lol. as much as things change, base things i learned 20 years ago DEFINITELY still apply today. Don't overlook old dogs.
Just... be careful with being smug about being newer to the field. There's plenty of shit that no longer applies, but just as much that still does.
For every brand new way of doing things there are multiple pieces of software, hardware, and programming libraries that are just repeated iterations on the original carrying forward the oddities from the past. I've lost track of how many times the solution to why something wasn't working as expected couldn't be found in the current documentation, but was instead a strange limitation or edge case of the tech it was built on top of, revealed by one of the greybeards on my team having come across it before.
I'm pretty sure bot has been doubling as an insult for a long time now, like NPC
I worked in the video game industry for over a decade and let me tell you there is nothing more infuriating than arguing with a clueless gamer who thinks everything can be solved in a few minutes with overly naive solutions. Bonus points for trying to "educate" me on my own specialization like "net code". Why do I even bother.
