Honestly no.

How do you join a channel? How to start private message? How to setup e2ee? How do I recieve messages when I'm offline (bouncer)? how do I send files/images/video? There's lots of things to learn, understand and setup

    I think we're saying the same thing.

    I also believe one should not make professional decisions based on these things. But if the person just keeps these messed up things to themselve in their free time and doesn't mix it with the project/profession I can mostly tolerate that.

    An individual's personal beliefs has nothing with their profession. Unless they leak it into their profession. Now the profession has that ideology and we can address that. The person, and especially as long as it's just words and tweets etc, is separate from the work.

    Anyway, this is my unpopular opinion.

    I probably disagree with 90% of Linus torvald's beliefs and ideologies. Do I promote him as a person? No. Do I promote Linux as a great project and operating system? Hell yes. Same goes with Stallman or probably 90% of other people. Because that'show we are. Most of us share nothing in common and oppose eachother's beliefs but we can still work together as professionals.

    People in FOSS community (including users) nitpick way too much about eachother's ethics and are mostly dictators so they expect everybody's views to align with themselves and each sub-community/individual see themselves as the source of moral balance.

    "oh no one of project XYZ maintainers doesn't like trans people we should boycott the project and fork it into LibreLGBTQXYZ"

    be professional ffs. See the project as the software and it's technicality, art, science and engineering. we can't be too picky about individual people's beliefs and ethics especially in current situations.

    Hi guys.

    I just did day1 of 2024 (I know, I'm late) this might be a dumb question but I reallydont understand why we should sort the two lists before substracting? I created some test cases with 10-20 items and calculated them manually, if you don't sort the list and just add all list1 items and substract from the sum of list2, you get the same answer. But it doesn't work with the large input file.

    Let's say list1 has elements (a,b,c,d) and list2 has (e,f,g,h).

    (a-e)+(b-f)+(c-g)+(d-h) = a-e+b-f+c-g+d-h = (a+b+c+d)-(e+f+g+h)

    So the sorting shouldn't matter. Right? But it does. Am I too bad at basic math?
