Yes! I came here to post, “a modern phone that fits in my hand”

Salesforce e-commerce is horrendous.

Your interesting fields… AI, ML, Data Science, etc, seem amazing on paper and in the movies, but a) it takes an incredible amount of dedication to master and b) in the real world, it’s monotonous, repetitive and frustrating work.

Cybersecurity sounds like the matrix or the movie Hackers, but in real life is incredibly complex, technical, not “exciting” by any means.

The entire industry sounds incredible. But it’s a lot of work, takes a lot of dedication, and is more boring than you’d think.

All of the above also has a very steep learning curve. That doesn’t help.

I’d say get into front end web, but you said you don’t have any interest. Have you tried React or similar front end web stuff? I’d say it has a less steep learning curve and it’s rewarding seeing the UI you build in real time. Maybe try it out?

I think the issue is that the entire industry is kind of over hyped and Hollywood-izd. It sounds cooler than it is. And it’s very complex. Try to get into something that sounds interesting and hope you enjoy it.

Is it DIY? This sounds like one of the things I’d rather hire a professional for.

“I use 4 extensions … ublock, etc, etc”

I don’t understand the “it’s complicated” thing. Figuring out which instance to use was slightly confusing (I went with lemmy.world because it seemed to be the most popular at the time), but after that, it’s no more complicated than Reddit or any other social media site. Am I missing anything?

Genuinely asking and know very little about it… why is Lemmy terrible software?

I’ve never worked with it and don’t know in detail, but it lets you compile several languages into web based client/server code (basically, converting other languages into website code). Works with C, C++, C#, Go, Rust, Swift, etc)

WASM?

So… “thing I don’t understand is overrated”?

Yeah, got that. But how does it work? How does it stop ai from working, it’s what I’m asking

Okay. Who’s doing the PDF deep dive and letting us know how this works in TL;DR format?

3.14 backwards spells PIE

What’s the difference between keepassxc and the regular keepass?

ReVanced? I used to use Vanced, but I guess it was shut down. I’ve been looking for an alternative (but clearly not very hard).

I’m in the market for a new keyboard and mouse. Any brand recommendations? I’m looking for something normal… No mechanical clicking, no glowing lights, etc. Just a normal wireless keyboard and mouse.
