Also both for me ! (even subscribed to programmer_humor and also linguistics_humor here on Lemmy)
Story time:
When I was at school, I hated languages (as a native French, English was a PAIN for me), but already was programming for fun outside school. Since I finished school, I grown interest in linguistics as well. I think for me it’s more because manga and animes, and because I am curious, so I wanted to understand all the little parts in texts… So I learned Japanse, then improved my English… then went curious about chinese… Spanish… And at this point, I don’t even learn new languages (too much time), I only searched for differences, construction and all; and that is where I discovered Linguistics basically.
Difference between human & computer language:
I heard that part of the brain that process Human language and Computer language is the same, that may be the reason, idk
They seems to be really different though, you don’t “Speak” or write a computer program like you write a text or a poem, it’s a totally different thinking process. The same way, you never read code from top to bottom left to right (reason why unindented code is AWFUL to read), it’s more about looking around what’s going on, to understand what the whole is doing. Sentences are way less dependent on the context (and WAYYYYY less dependent on what follows) to understand them.
But in a way, with time, we lean patterns, and know to recognize them (both in human and computer language), that may be the reason why they are both on the same part of the brain
Some sugar or caramel, simple, effective
No I don’t think so, currently it’s only using a “link” (that can be a picture you just uploaded) and title; then there is the body of your post.
No way to put multiple images as the content of your post
Multiple pics in a post: Click on the image button while writing the body of your message, it will add some text like this in your message: ![Title](http://link.to.image.imported.webm)
Converting jpg/gif to webm: I think this is a question to ask to instance administrators, or maybe lemmy core development team
[Edit] Fun fact: the image you added for this post is a Jpeg and not a WebM
Isn’t something called “Magazines” the equivalent of communities ?
I remember someone telling to replace “/c/” to “/m/” for kbin to use lemmy links to communities (that looks like https://instance/c/community@originalinstance and on kbin: https://instance/m/community@originalinstance)
That can be depressing as hell depending on your mindset of the day, so not “Always” worth-it
Translate the name of their species in different languages:

Hey, I think this can be interesting to some of you
There is a Non-profit organisation based in Swiss, that aims to evaluate the quality of Youtube videos, and generates global recommendations from that: tournesol.app
Currently, there is about 25000 videos included (~50% are in French, ~40% in English, 10% other) at the top of English recommendations we can find Kurzgesagt, Science4All, John Oliver LastWeekTonight
If you like to give your opinion, please come by !
This works like that:
Pros: The recommendation algorithm used, 100% Open sourced and developed by universities, said to be mathematically safe against a number of risks (strategic voting, bots attacks…) and “more representative to public opinion than commonly used polling methods”
Cons: The current low number of users (recommendations are pretty biased towards living healthly and reducing carbon footprint, for the moment, not a lot of entertainment yet)
Note that I’m not affiliated not part of the associative, I’m only a user of Tournesol, comparing videos from time to time to improve global rankings
Magic force field ? Or some gaz or magic that disable, give pain or kill when aproaching or entering it, without anybody knowing particularly that “a gaz” is the problem; just that whoever enters get sicks as hell and cannot move anymore
(If want to have a reason why nobody never entered, but your players needs to be able to enter)
Please put emojis or pictures in your posts & comments ! (But please also avoid 4k sized pictues, most of lemmy instances have bad CSS (displaying nicely things) for the moment)
Does a !ama even exists ?
Ah yes, here: !ama@geddit.social (kbin: /m/ama@geddit.social), but yet is empty
