It is ridiculous. I am interviewing for embedded systems development where we frequently write to specific bits in a register. I am sure these kids have had to learn something, but I can't figure out a polite way to ask them to give me some examples of what.

There was a series of questions I heard in a political discussion about whether or not any given politician understood what the internet was, and if they really had any idea of how to regulate it.

They are.. "Explain the differences between, the internet, the world wide web, a search engine and a browser."

If the person could not answer those 4 questions , well.. they shouldn't have been trying to write legislation about it. I think that still stands as a basic foundational step to start from

There are internets, but there is only one Internet.

I miss the Internet. Frankly, I find that the web blows balls now. :(

Dead Internet is a thing for a reason. :(

Well, I for one am delighted to find lemmy and in a small way, do my bit to resurrect a miniscule, tiny bit of it.

It's mandlebrot patterns, all the way down.. right? Smaller iterations of the larger seed.

Best we can do..
