I joined Lemmy back in 2020 and have been using it as [email protected] until somewhere in 2023 when I switched to lemmy.world. I’m interested in systemd/Linux, FOSS, and Selfhosting.

  • For other people who didn’t know what Haaretz was:

    Haaretz (Hebrew: הָאָרֶץ, lit. ‘The Land [of Israel]’; originally Ḥadshot Haaretz – Hebrew: חַדְשׁוֹת הָאָרֶץ, IPA: [χadˈʃot haˈʔaʁets], lit. ‘News of the Land [of Israel]’) is an Israeli newspaper. It was founded in 1918, making it the longest running newspaper currently in print in Israel. The paper is published in Hebrew and English in the Berliner format, and is also available online. In North America, it is published as a weekly newspaper, combining articles from the Friday edition with a roundup from the rest of the week. Haaretz is Israel’s newspaper of record. It is known for its left-wing and liberal stances on domestic and foreign issues.

    As of 2022, Haaretz has the third-largest circulation in Israel. It is widely read by international observers, especially in its English edition, and discussed in the international press. According to the Center for Research Libraries, among Israel’s daily newspapers, “Haaretz is considered the most influential and respected for both its news coverage and its commentary.”

  • It’s further than you think. I spoke to someone today about and he told me it produced a basic SaaS app for him. He said that it looked surprisingly okay and the basic functionalities actually worked too. He did note that it kept using deprecated code, consistently made a few basic mistakes despite being told how to avoid it, and failed to produce nontrivial functionalies.

    He did say that it used very common libraries and we hypothesized that it functioned well because a lot of relevant code could be found on GitHub and that it might function significantly worse when encountering less popular frameworks.

    Still it’s quite impressive, although not surprising considering it was a matter of time before people would start to feed the feedback of an IDE back into it.
