something about the fact that political candidates are willing to flip on issues just to gain short-term capital even if it doesn’t match their values bothers me significantly

Long: Should bsky let AI overviews call elections that haven't been counted at all?

just confirming for a friend is this how election reporting works?
Bluesky trending tab. 1st topic says "Farage wins Clacton seat".BBC News headline. Title reads "Polls open in Clacton by-election". Highlighted is the publish date text of two hours ago. This is important information.Same BBC News article. Text reads "Polling stations will remain open to anyone registered until 22:00, with the count taking place overnight." Highlighted is the text showing the time of polls closing being 22:00.Screenshot of a clock, set to the time in the United Kingdom. Time reads 09:05. Notably, this is 13 hours before polling closes.

Twitch's "Allow your channel content to train generative AI models" setting is here and on by default. Go turn that shit off, streamer!! The toggle is under your Settings, then 'Security and Privacy'

Finally figured out how to detect odd numbers in Java (so proud of myself!!!!)
Java code to detect an even or odd number.

Essentially, it works by dividing the number by two, and then comparing that value with and without decimal points to see if they are of equal value. Even numbers will always divide into two, whilst odd numbers won’t and will produce two distinct values when compared. Nobel prize in the mail.

My favourite thing (and perhaps.. only thing I enjoy) about social media, specifically in formats like Bluesky, is that I can cheer on people on the cool things they're doing. Now, obviously I've done lots of not that, but I'm certainly trying my best..!(?)

It has given me the idea of maybe adding read-throughs of my blogposts, whether useful or not... not sure how well that'd go to implement, though.

Reading mode is genuinely so helpful sometimes; in this case because I really wanted to read @lambdaurora.dev's blogpost about plural terminology

3/2. I'm sorry for being pithy about this in my first post about it, but I wanted to make it at least a little more known that *yes, you do have options!* The free version of the new unified distribution is by no means significantly worse, but I prefer the simplicity of CE and will continue w/ it.

WorldWidePixel @worldwidepixel.ca · 26/03/2026
What they fail to note is that you can still use the "Open Source" version (which is still labelled as "Community Edition", intentional or not...) JetBrains has also made it difficult to find these continued CE distributions, which are on their GitHub at github.com/JetBrains/in.... 2/2

Follow-up on previous post. To put it less bluntly, JetBrains has made some *very interesting* choices when it comes to migration of IDEA users. The path they recommend is moving Community users to the new "unified distribution", which is a somewhat continuation of Ultimate. 1/2(?)

For me, the lack of an annoying and unremovable "FREE TRIAL" button is enough to make the switch

This is just a summary of my personal experience attempting to update IDEA CE 2024.1 to 2026.1. Declaring CE dead and then... not, but still hiding it feels very intentionally misleading to me.

WorldWidePixel @worldwidepixel.ca · 26/03/2026
They're lying (or at least being extremely misleading) about killing CE, and are just obfuscating it as much as possible by using different terms (like Open Source version in the chart above), and hiding CE downloads to GH.

WorldWidePixel @worldwidepixel.ca · 26/03/2026
uhh.. right that's useful. This is an official image from their blog, and they hid all CE downloads from their website. I'll repost with some fancy hashtags ig
