  • Looking for a moderator of the community

    Jump

  • For the moment I see unnecessary to close the community or delete it, both because it is the first community of Minetest/Luanti to be created in lemmy (of any instance), which implies that by age, being in the first and largest instance of this network, number of members, posts, etc. appears first in all searches of the different instances in everything concerning Minetest/Luanti.

    And secondly because of the recent change of image and name. Only until 'Luanti' as a brand name surpasses the 'Minetest' brand name, can the latter be discarded. As mentioned in the blog post:

    you'll probably still hear “Minetest” occasionally in reference to Minetest Game which will remain a testament to the project's roots. Otherwise, Luanti now represents the future of the platform.

    BTW, you can be a mod here, and unify efforts with the community of your instance :D

    Jump

  • I'm Latin American, I grew up in this, it's part of my culture, that's why I know where all this is going (about musical genres). I'm not an "outsider".

    Your comment sounds a bit racist ngl

    You have no idea what you're talking about, right?

  • Which songs from the last decade (2014-2024) will become classics?

    Jump

  • Any music of any genre other than reggaeton and trap. Their "hit songs" rarely manage to survive more than 5 years in the collective thought of the masses, then they become "background noise" in nightclubs, supermarkets, squares and other meeting places, overshadowed by the disposable "hit of the moment".

  • Basilisp, a Clojure-like language targeting Python

    Jump

  • Exactly, The transpilers are necessary when the target system only works exclusively with a single language.

  • Basilisp, a Clojure-like language targeting Python

    Jump

  • As @yogthos@lemmy.ml mentioned, they differ in implementation:

    • The Hy compiler works by reading the Hy source code into Hy model objects and compiling the Hy model objects into Python abstract syntax tree (ast) objects. In other words, at runtime it is essentially Python source code. Similar to Typescript and CoffeScript (JS).
    • Basilisp is hosted on the Python virtual machine, so its compiler generates native Python bytecode. Similar to Clojure and Scala (Java/JVM) or Elixir (Erlang/BEAM).

    Personally in these cases, I prefer the second approach, because the first one is basically "syntactic sugar": a Python lispy syntax (embedded), on the other hand Basilisp is a "more complete implementation", that is, a language independent of the host language with all the strengths and weaknesses of its host system/VM.

  • Apache Log4j bug: China’s industry ministry pulls support from Alibaba Cloud for not reporting flaw to government first | South China Morning Post

    Jump

  • It is a double-edged sword: Where is the Apache Foundation registered and operating? In the United States. The company that found the exploit, Alibaba, is Chinese. Even the department that found it (security team) is located in the offices of Alibaba Cloud, in Singapore. In short, the Chinese government was very close to having a tool to seriously damage the Western technology infrastructure, without the other side ever knowing where exactly they were being hit from. And if it had been the other way around? if that information had reached the Singaporean authorities earlier? we must not forget that it is a very servile government to the United States. Or in the worst case scenario the report was intercepted at the Apache Foundation, remember PRISM? one of their goals is to find potential vulnerabilities and exploit them against "hostile forces" even forcing companies registered on US soil and several beyond their borders to leave "backdoors" in their products/systems without public knowledge.

    Fortunately or unfortunately it was reported and announced publicly, without prior knowledge of the respective governments, so neither side gained a considerable advantage in this new field of warfare that is the cyberspace.

  • Chrome Users Beware: Manifest V3 is Deceitful and Threatening

    Jump

  • the ordinary user will only notice it when his adblocker stops working.

    Firefox maintains the largest extension market that’s not based on Chrome, and the company has said it will adopt Mv3 in the interest of cross-browser compatibility.

    We all know, and more the Mozilla people, that this cross-browser compatibility is false, the big G is forcing them to use their technology unilaterally. Mozilla is one step away from switching to blink engine, but they has no more options, with the huge losses generated by many bad decisions made, especially during the disastrous management of Brendan Eich. Google became their only oxygen tank (keeping Mozilla afloat enough to avoid antitrust laws and disintegrate the conglomerate).
