In an absolute sense, no. In a behavioral sense anyone who cannot define what is enough will never have enough. In this sense we have a lot of high income poor in the us including billionaires.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How do you conduct research in the AI age?English
11·1 month agoIf your talking about true research, has AI actually changed much yet. Go to a research library and use their professional search tools and people. Then read.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What happens if someone refuses to work in a socialist economy?English
3·1 month agoLife is more complex. I do not live in a society that ia that socialiatic. I worked 26 years then said FU and probably will not work again. Money is more or less meaningless now. How is that different?
On the otherhand, my grad school was 100% paid but I also worked hard. I did not do it to make money nor did I need to work to pay for it.
Just pointing out money is less of a motivator then one might think.
It is not. Subscribe to the feeds you want the view only subscribed. There are several views.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•I think Lemmy in general is very against AI. I'm rather new here, is it like a fediverse group thing or is this even based on reality?English
52·3 months agoNot against AI. I use it quite a lot. I also find amusement when it tells me things that are just wrong in a very sure way. So never fully trust AI. If you accept that then AI can be quite useful.
Yes humans are terible at multitasking.
The primary reason to use Lemmey is decentralization and avoidance of Reddit enshitification. Lot of Lemmey blocks shit show lemmey nodes though I am sure they exist.
There was a time when I looked at LCD screens I saw all the defects.

Anyone who is not cautious in choosing a partner for the next 60 or 70 years is nuts. This is probably the most important decision you will ever make. We are almost 30 years in and it is great but it was not easy to find someone. Not sure it is comittment exactly. More finding someone that wants a long term partner and that you both like each other and can stand each other over the long run and are heading in a similar direction in this complex world. Lot of people do not seem to know the difference between lust and love too.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•I'm the President. what's one thing you want me to change about the country?English
1·7 months agoBy the way, the president does not decide policy. That is congress in the US. The president administers policy. So the number one thing is follow rhe constitution and the law and the spirit of the law. Sadly thw current administration cannot even meet this low bar.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you prefer natural immunity over vaccination?English
9·7 months agoI prefer following science rather then quackery. People forget what the world was like before vaccinations, floride, and public health. Sadly in the US the quacks are in charge now.
So yes vax for me,

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is the world actually worse than it was 25 years ago, or does it just feel that way because I'm now more aware of how dysfunctional and cruel everything seems?English
63·7 months agoThere are a lot of things going on. Internationally, China and Russia and others at war or preparing for war with the west. So big geopolitical stuff. At home an aligment of those forces to create political instbility with existing forces internal to the US. A media and social media enviornment that thrives on outrage not truth. Disastisfaction that has resulted in a major political party being taken over by fascist, authoritarian. and corrupt influences. A populus that thinks this is just fine for one reason or another. A wealthy corporate power elite behind the scenes that likes this.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What could I do about a very noisy coworker?English
1·7 months agoIf nothing else put on ear protection or ear plugs. If you wear hearing aids some have a noise block freature.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Have you ever traveled outside of America? (Not to Canada or Mexico)English
2·7 months agoSure maybe 8 counties. Yes I have had a passport for decades.

Programming@programming.dev•Which software design principles do you rely on most?English
2·7 months agoCommon:
- Procedural, preferably Functional. If you need a procedure or function use a procedure or function.
- Object Oriented. If you need an object use an object.
- Modular
- Package/Collection of Modules
- Do not optimize unless you need to.
- Readable is more important then compact.
- Somone said minimal code coupling, Yes! Try to have code complexity increase closer to N then N factorial where N is code size.
Frankly everything else is specialized though not unuseful.

If you are talking internet connections, that is the realm of big providers. Cell, Fiber, Cable, Satalite, and WiMax like services. There have been some local Wifi mesh systems but these ultimately need to link to telecoms.
If your talking apps and services that run on an internet connection, there are many solutions.
