How do you track and improve impact and quality of work without before and after documentation?

I'm not sure what do do about the before and after though. Any suggestions?

Contributing to existing projects as an introduction is very hit or miss. Project and task complexity vary immensely, supporting docs and guidance are most often non existent.

I love Advent of code as a concept, but I agree - at least the ones I worked on - have a steep difficulty/scope curve.

Something like a tic tac toe game is great because it is visual, interactive, and iterative as well as relatively small in scope. Any project you have a personal interest in and that has some or most of those properties is great.

The Web technologies HTML css and js are great to get into programming but I feel like it's bad for teaching software development as software engineering, because it doesn't guide towards or ensure structuring and good practices. Which I thought you were talking about at first, but I guess you're not at that point yet with on and off beginnings.

Going back to your original description, functions encapsulate a work unit. Use it to name and define behavior so that you can combine and hide away complexity in a defined and obvious manner. Separation makes overall complexity manageable because you can look at subsection of it.

How did your tic tac toe game go? Was that something that worked out well?

Have you looked at other projects? For example other tic tac toe implementations and how they did it? Which can be hit or miss in quality and readability of course.

In my opinion the best way to learn, or environment to learn, is teaching or/and guidance through a good senior. The second best is interest and personal projects. Even if it's small hacks or projects, and even "unfinished" projects can give experience and knowledge.

Cascadia Code is what I'm using

In 2022, there were 608,601 reports of child exploitation on Omegle to the nonprofit National Center for Missing and Exploited Children’s CyberTipline. Of all the sites the center tracked, only Facebook, Google, Instagram, and WhatsApp ranked higher.

That's a crazy high number. Especially for a live content platform which I assume can only ever have individual reports of live interactions?

Autoplaying unrelated videos. Shit wasteful website.

They're quite different. So different that I think neither one says anything about the safety of the other.

How are they opposed?

Depending on how you define national security they aren't.

You can default to privacy while allowing court ordered exceptions. That seems reasonable and effective, and seemingly has worked fine for along time.

How did you get from child porn that harms minors to dudes jacking off? That's not the same or equivalent.

This comment could have been formulated in a non-aggressive tone, as a question or opinion, or reasoned criticism. Instead they chose a passive aggressive tone.

Really ironic and sad in the context of this topic, and right below the quotes like

people have become faster to attack, and slower to recognize each other’s shared humanity.

There was a proposal to have webbrowsers have to accept government certificates. Consequently they could man-in-the-middle/take over domains.

You could argue it's no different from another central authority that can issue trusted certificates. But it's government's rather than independent orgs.

What matters is the association of the IP to a person or account. If you receive spam and block the source IP it's not personal data. If you create an account on a website and they store your IP to it then it is.

Handling IPs for necessary technical service protection can also be acceptable without explicit consent as long as it's limited/temporary (you may be able to handle that without account association in the first place anyway).

Yes

Unless you're talking about local accounts, remote accounts are inherently remote by definition and additional attack vectors apply.

You don't need ideas to count up.

I block people. I do in Overwatch, I did in Smite, I did in Reddit, I do in Lemmy. It has no end.

Individual blocking works in small communities, but not on big public platforms. For every block you do you can expect another 100 new people on the next interaction.

How do you consider it feasible? Do you think you'll eventually reach a point where you have everyone blocked you'd want to? Or is it about teaching a level where you blocked the regulars and will continue to need blocking for new people?

Each home has communities. No matter where your home is, you can access and participate in all communities - from your home and others.

You choose a home to your liking, for example from which country, or moderation policy, or topic themes. You make your account on that home, and then access and join the communities you want to.

What a title

You could say it's about the nature of Twitter.

Not every cancelation is revoking right to live or other rights. And certainly not generally or commonly.

Cancelation is usually about revoking elevated positions or public platform. That's very far from how you lay it out.
