We usually know O'Reilley as that one annoying website that opens up with minimal information and a pointer to some chapter in some book of theirs that you need to buy to solve the question you asked
In all seriousness, people do know it exists but free/cheap online educational content is surprisingly accessible now so nobody really migrates towards textbooks anymore. Although I do admit that occasionally books have a lot of useful information that is very hard to obtain otherwise
I love dart's approach to getter and setter methods... They let you define methods labelled explicitly as "get" or "set" methods that you can call without writing the parentheses. So the call looks like accessing a member variable, but internally it can handle additional functionality like logging or validation or whatever you want. So the syntax would look like the first example in the meme, but with all the benefits of the second example. I wish more languages would incorporate this
That's pretty neat, thanks
Is there a limit on the number of posts you can save to your account? From what I know, reddit and Instagram both have a hard limit on the number of posts that a user can save before the older ones start getting forgotten. Does lemmy have any such restrictions?
Bit late to the party but I'm using Jerboa... I'm amazed at how many clients there are already, though
Man when I first realised that Relay for Reddit is still working, I legit thought that Reddit's strategy was to just scare people into shutting down third party apps without wasting a dime on actually upgrading their API lol
Meanwhile half the subs have gone into protest mode in all sorts of ways... My favorite is r/madlads who gave all users mod privileges, in true madlads fashion
Edit: can you link to a resource explaining the custom patching thing? Sounds interesting, might try it out
My god we're already at the beetlejuicing stage on lemmy... Nice
