For me, Wix was never truly an OSS project (sure, technically/formally, it is). It's for me just an MS developer workplace in disguise. As MS, it looks nicer and you don't have to support so much. I was wrong and Rob was inde

I can remember I was at a birthday party and the entire topic of the f*cking evening was when it will be online again. With everybody checking every 23 seconds. I left that 'party' quite early.

No real problem. By the same amount, young people are smarter and more competent, in particular regarding tech topics. At least that's the dominant narrative since a decade. And I'm sure it's actually true, and least when the

> I think projects could improve by moving more of their regular workflow to invite-only mediums-- private repositories, issue trackers, etc. If someone wants to complain about your project then they can do it on their own forum, they do

... or you just finally realize that interaction beyond your own bubble is more complicated, harder, and more tiring, but not toxic. People are very very sensitive plants nowadays. It doesn't help. Don't try to hide people even mo

The best idea imho is the assumption that people have some intelligence. I know, it's an utopia. But, well... Give them a way to block users. Help law enforcement when something actually criminal happens. For the rest, just let it happ

Yes, it _can_. Sure. You rlly think the vogons have made prank pizza orders, swatted him, or anything like that? C'mon, get real. Here is a new comment that you can downvote just because you hate the statement. He didn't get as mu

At least they are something that actually exists on their own, and not just a Microsoft cloud entity. I've seen rough people everywhere on the internet, but that's at least very delighting.

It's an intentionally edgy statement, got it... The major problem: With any idea around decreasing all that social media circus, and coming back to the actual things a bit more, you lose entire generations of human beings nowadays whos

Also good to consider for that tradeoff: Those people are completely fine to ignore you without some Zuck accounts. Bring that together with your idea about friendship before you run behind them. Maybe it's fine for you. Maybe your con

I had a dream recently, where Elon Musk said the following: I'm not actually the bad guy you think I am. It was basically all a show. You had suuuuuuch a hard and looong time understanding the danger of all these corporate social media

It reminds me of sooo many things. Maybe it's part of a kitchen tool. Or gardening, a weapon, you name it. But by no means it looks like a dick. :-/

None of these points seem to be relevant when it comes to the question about ASCII art as text in html vs image. Most of them feel to be no actual problems at all, but only someone vaguely mentioned some keywords in order to 'find&#x27

But he explicitly mentions books. That contrast makes it interesting. I assume that he is explicitly fine with text content. And then he does not mention the web in general (or even Reddit - it wouldn't be worth more than an eyeroll to

Yeah, well, I never said that there aren't any experts in any topic who at some point decided to publish something there. The fact that entire generations of human beings basically look there and at TikTok and Instagram for any topic,

When I'm looking for actual experts, the first thing that comes to my mind is definitely YouTube!! And least when it's about YouTube specific topics, like where the like button and the subscribe button is. They will tell me. Every

Okay, for that particular purpose, I can well imagine that you are actually right. I usually don't even try that, and when I do, it's exactly as you say.

Okay, you can use GMail and Youtube with other frontends. Doesn't change much, though. If you are just using cloud services, you are better off staying at whatever OS you use. > These people will get burned They decided this way. I

I'd say "-site:reddit.com" helps a lot. And also "-site:youtube.com" and some others :) Admittedly, I usually do the exclusion in my brain and not actually via the search query. I don't know where the hype come

That wouldn't be wise. Everyone who does everything in the cloud (a.k.a. other people's computers), like Ms 365, Teams, Youtube, Tiktok, Instagram, Google Mail, Google Maps, Google Spreadsheets, WhatsApp, etc, ... should think twi

There are good arguments for both sides, and there is no contradiction. Why shouldn't they both be good tools, depending on the specific case? I do print debugging most of the times, together with reasoning and some understanding what

My feeling nowadays (i.e. since around a decade maybe) is that there is a lot of technical complexity going on which should imho be either an internal part of the browser itself, or should not be used that widely. It's probably all goo

Why does it include TS? I would never have called it a 'web technology'. A lot of people use it in their tech stack, but fortunately, the browser does not even understand it, right?

No, it was always this way.

That's a lot of trust for a project that is proud for having it tested with one browser, and wants to hear from you on Facebook or Discord. My trust in such a project would be quite minimal.

One of the most disappointing aspects of the Linux ecosystem is the 'community'. The self-proclaimed experts in forums who try to help people. I'm using Linux only since >20 years. I usually don't need them. And I lea
