I have never dug into low level things like cpu architectures etc. and decided to give it a try when I learned about cpu.land.

I already was aware of the existence of user and kernel mode but while I was reading site it came to me that "I still can harm my system with userland programs so what does it mean to switch user mode for almost everything other than kernel and drivers?" also we still can do many things with syscalls, what is that stopping us(assuming we want to harm system of course) from damaging our system.

[edit1]: grammar mistakes

Do you believe in God? in c/[email protected]
[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I think what "god" does mean for me, you and others are different. Also same goes for "believe" and "you". I believe, these kinds of topics are way out of our minds' league and even we could comprehend and discuss those things(god, reality, logic etc.) we still would be using wrong tools like language and our current logic system. So both the tools we use, and our intelligence is not enough to answer this question.

But still, if you want a yes or no answer; I would say no without hesitation.

Recommendation algorithm does not only consider your watch history. There are other factors.

Where can I learn algorithms and data structures? (lemm.ee)
 

I know this can be easily searched over internet, but I want to know your experience. I don't want a medium article listing algorithm courses.

I found Algorithms from Princeton University in coursera, but course is too old and many resources they have provided are not working right now. I would apprentice it if you could share more of an video type resources because I am not good with programming books, I can not focus them.

Thanks in advance...

What are your opinions on the other Reddit alternatives like Squabbles.io, Raddle, Tildes, etc? in c/[email protected]
[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I am using tildes, and compared to lemmy it's community is small. But I love it because of this. Since community is small I feel like I really am a significant part of the community.
