you’re right of course, but i think part of the sentiment behind “once a maga, always a magat” is that often people in the MAGAsphere don’t actually admit that the original premise is wrong, or change their way of thinking, or develop critical thinking skills: they just get personally burned…

changing how you ingest and process information about the world is a very hard thing to do, and few “reformed MAGAs” have likely done that work… we should applaud them for leaving their current cult, but the next one right around the corner might grab them just as hard

vivaldi recently disabled uBO and said it’d soon be unsupported. you can re-enable for now

the fact that nothing happened doesn’t mean it was overblown. the fact that nothing happened means all the engineering effort and sleepless nights that went into the problem were well-spent

prevention that succeeds so completely to prevent a disaster that you don’t even notice is just a job very well done: not evidence that the disaster wasn’t real or very dangerous

stringify is used to serialize an object good enough in the large majority of cases because we have far more poorly implemented hacks to work around

i agree but hate to add the caveat that it (well, typescript) these days is by far the language that i’m most productive in, with the fewest bugs

it took me a long time to admit that to myself

it’s still a human rights violation

if they’d have called it “related reviews” it might have gone down okay

and gone down well if reviews about the publisher/developer/etc were shared between games automatically… even if they were separated

it’d be annoying for like 2 sec giving up better auto complete when i’m writing code (keywords: when IM writing code), or “intuitively find and replace non-identical things based on what i just did”

and then id get over it because i could buy RAM again

see you’re misinterpreting the reason they got away with it though… it looks like this whole oopsie doopsie my widdwe AI did a crimes sowwie but it’s actually just… and you’ll never guess it… ready for it? the law doesn’t apply to the rich…

as if we needed any more reasons to demand fibre

do NOT make mistakes

DROP *

much more preferable to

GRANT *

that is absolutely NOT the way that works in any functional environment

your ability to deploy quickly comes directly from your automation, and those automation tools - NOT developers - have the secrets in them

deploy to prod multiple times per day isn’t some win by itself… the ability for large teams (not 1 fuckwit and a goon squad of agents) to deploy without breaking things and in ways that are safe is the win here… anyone can deploy to prod multiple times per day… but anyone isn’t netflix (the originators of the “multiple times per day” line) with the uptime they achieve over years while doing it

if you talk AND type you can burn twice the tokens and get the same result! it’s a win win win

along with most modern languages… it’s the way we deal with async when you don’t want callback hell. it’s just a complex problem domain

like… what… JITs are complex so that’s a problem for V8 specifically?

in a situation in which harm increase over time, like the rise of far right, anti-science, environmental damage, etc… perhaps that “wait” is a less ethical solution than to solve the problem

now, perhaps causing harm isn’t the way to go, but… the lesser of 2 evils may still be somewhat problematic

in australia they absolutely do

we take skin cancer very seriously down here

i don’t think you understand what the word “crime” means

when people are forced to choose starvation or shoplifting, there’s not a great deal of choice there

it’s not self hate: it’s an acknowledgment that SNAP is survival, and people will find a way to survive with or without it… without it, it’s just far less fair and measurable

a great illustration of the dunning-kruger effect

right? i sounds great until you realize oh shit… logistics exist… all those perishable goods don’t just magically appear on people’s plates… 2.3billion people’s worth of food waste for 7.7bn people is honestly bloody miraculous tbh… can we do more to reduce food waste in our rich nations? sure… would that help feed people in areas of famine? unlikely
