Sounds like a move driven by politics.

That being said, that’s not a bad thing. All democratic countries would benefit from more active state intervention drop American technology, services and hardware and limit acquisition of promising local companies by American oligarch groups (e.g. Qualcomm’s acquisition of Arduino).

You support continued internment of Ukrainians in the occupied territories, abuse of Ukrainian children and russian genocidal imperialism.

The “don’t care about lines on the map” statement is not believable coming from someone who repeats putin’s statements about “Watzis in Ukraine!1!1”.

Why would I need to remind you about something you already know and have taken to heart? Good to see progress on this issue! One day you might even remember your ghoulish “leftist” online roleplay with a profound sense of shame and disgust. Stranger things have happened in life…

Sure you were! It’s not like tankies aren’t known to lie about Cuba being a democracy or NK being a “vanguard against imperialism”. No ma’am!

Someone claiming to have family in Ukraine supports neither Ukraine or russia. That’s very realistic! Or wait, I know, you support the DNR not russia ;), got you tankie!

Yes, pushing russian narratives about Ukraine is supporting putin.

You’ve never lived in Ukraine (Donbas or otherwise) or even russia and the whole “Nazis in Ukraine” pitch is just cover for your disgusting commie belief in the extermination of undesirable ethnicities (who in your view don’t submit to your messed up understanding communism).

You think Ukrainians don’t have a right to self determination and you have the gall to say you oppose the war?

Don’t play with dumb with me tankie!

I don’t support Ukraine

Thank you for proving my point (once again) about tankies supporting extermination of Ukrainian culture/identity/language and continued internment of tens of thousands of Ukrainians in the occupied territories (and mass discrimination and prosecution).

You even openly admit that you support putin’s “de-nazifiction of Ukraine” rhetoric.

You most definitely do not “oppose the war entirely”. Rejection of self determination for Ukrainians (and the right to speak in Ukrainian) is support for the russian invasion of Ukraine.

lemmy.ml is predominantly socialist.

Saying ML is socialist (which it’s not, it’s a tankie instance) is de facto discrediting socialism.

It’s like saying that socialists oppose any criticism of russia and china (authoritarian, imperialist, hyper-capitalist oligarchic countries that have nothing to do with socialism) and socialist only read Russia Today.

Congrats! You went on an American eurotrip in your youth. And you know a few people who were born in the USSR on Lemmy (does that include me)?

If you know so much about the USSR, can you tell me which professions were (outside of being a party goons) considered profitable and why? Wikipedia answers aren’t going to cut it. Something that shows basic knowledge on this issue without web searching. Indulge me, lil commie bro!

Yes, meat was widely available in the USSR and common access was not limited to well-connected individuals and party goons! What a great life!

The Holodomor never happened and it was CIA psyop! The CIA made a time machine to travel back in time and discredit comrade Stalin! I see. My great grandmother was a time travelling CIA agent working to discredit communism!

Local language education was definitely not suppressed and cultural group of occupied nations weren’t prosecuted! You could make movies in your language and vote to have education be primarily in your own language, right? You could even vote leave the USSR since it wasn’t an occupation!

The real irony is that even the russians don’t believe in your cointelpro and counter-revolutionary gibberish (wrt Czechia and Hungary). They are lucid enough to understand that it was matter of imperialism and ethno-national supremacism.

No one buys your tankie gibberish!

I said it before (in this thread) and I will say it again:

ML are basically on par with Nazis; full endorsement of extermination of national identity/language/culture of “bad” ethnicities, support for russian Lebensraum, support for mass internment camps for “bad” ethnicities.

Dessalines, an American, has never lived in Ukraine or russia, doesn’t speak Ukrainian or russian and yet he comes up with bullshit like “putin just wants to show he means business” or “war is war, civilian casualties are fine [as long as it’s Ukrainians]”.

You never had any friends from Hungary or Czesh Republic, you’ve never been there.

The USSR was total trash. Abject poverty, genocidal extermination of the cultrue and language of occupied nations, KGB goons in universities and a corrupt leadership that makes the current oligarch/criminal look like good guys. You’ve likely never met anyone who lived in the USSR.

Thank you for proving my point!

Lol, this is the most stereotypical tankie gibberish there is.

I’ve used vibe coding in a project where the coding part was small (20% of the total project, with the complex stuff being the remaining 80%) and it had relatively straightforward workflow that could be tested and accounted for without strange edge cases.

It’s not only nepo/conmen types who use vibe coding.

Please indulge me, my well educated friend.

Touche!

Ah I see. I didn’t realize a censure had a technical component. That being said, by this point not much would be lost with a defederation from ML.

Still a mere two hesitations and tons of endorsements (including DB0).

ML are basically on par with Nazis; full endorsement of extermination of national identity/language/culture of “bad” ethnicities, support for russian Lebensraum, support for mass internment camps for “bad” ethnicities.

Sure, they deny this, but from memory all of the Nazis at Nuremberg pleaded not guilty.

Interesting tool.

How is that ML only has two censures:

ML is a tankie instance.

Also fascinating to see DB0 giving an endorsement to ML. Not surprising though.

Sh.itjust.works is fine if you want to join a mid-sized instance.

I personally find DB0 to be a bit suspect (they tolerate and sometimes enable tankies).

For sure, I am talking about smaller projects where programming elements are relatively low key and critical parts are the business logic and how it impacts UX/UI and use case flows.

I was between projects and I needed money so I accepted a project from a repeat client where I knew 80% of it very well (and how to implement it), but there were parts that I vibe coded (albeit they were simple enough that I could understand the logic of what I was deploying even though I don’t know how to code).

The contract size was simply too small for me to get a subcontractor, I would be giving them most of payment (while doing 80% of the work).

I think it’s fair to use vibe coding in such situations.

I would not risk vibe coding in a situation where I felt I would be undermining the clients’ project (I want repeat clients and I don’t want to have to spend time fixing things for free).

Bill Gates is a horrible person, he is a criminal.

Microsoft’s oligopoly (officially sanctioned and enabled by US society) has cost the world hundreds of billions of dollars if not more.

Not to mention his committed support for the current oligarch regime and global corporate criminality more broadly.

That being said, I don’t think everyone at Microsoft or Google is evil, but a far larger percent of their employees are evil than one would think (i.e. it’s not only the senior executives).

There are specialized niche services/domains in B2B professional services and engineering where it’s honestly difficult to be evil due to the nature of the domain and because it’s B2B.

One could argue you are are still enabling evil companies, which is fair, but at least you’re not really harming anyone.

I could place orders without giving my contact details or payment.

This isn’t a “vibe coding” issue. This is just basic laziness/fraud. Even with vibe coding, you can get by if the project is simple, you know the business/operational elements of the domain, you aggressively test the solution and are aware of at least common edge cases.

No worries, I get that.

I am just saying globally prices are more variable. I can’t speak for EU specifically, but our prices generally track EU (more so than US).

AMD needs to compete directly with Nvidia, but they won’t since GPUs are a (US) government backed oligopoly.
