Do not try to deceive people. Always tell the truth, even if it’s uncomfortable.

That depends on how often you use it. If I needed to write quicksort as often as the quadratic formula, I’d probably remember it. And if I only used the quadratic formula as often as I do quicksort, I’d just derive it each time.

How would decentralization work for an issue tracker? The issues have to be stored somewhere.

I’m sure there is a lot that the random developer who happened to be born in Russia can do about that.

But you can’t view Mastodon posts from Lemmy.
