• Might not want to share your personal information publically - That information is PII and in western countries need to be handled with care.

  (semantic HTML). You can find details on the HTML spec page: https://html.spec.whatwg.org/dev/ (you should look at chapter 4). Maybe also looks into CSS Box Model instead of using flex all over the place :)

Anyone who rails against “DEI” is by definition a white supremacist.

This is such a backwards take. "DEI" could always only end in misery, because it pulls people ahead of the line in a time when the working people are already having a hard time. "Is that person hired because of the colour of their skin or the sex of their body, or have they been hired because they're actually good?". It could only make a large part of the population feeling left behind because of their sex or race. What do you think that does to the social foundation of a nation?

Alas, I have no idea what a good alternative would be, but I always recognized "DEI" as a bad idea. I don't have to be a chef to be able to tell that this dish tastes like ass, even if I can't cook for shit myself.

That does not make me (or anyone else who thinks DEI is ass) a white supremacist "by definition".

At the end of the day, it's the ultrarich hoarding all the money that's the actual issue - an economy that's not fair to the citizens of the nation. The top 3 wealthiest persons in the USA have the same amount of money as the bottom 50%.

Fuck these nazis.

Are you going to storm the Capitol like your granddads stormed the beaches of Normandy? Are you going to only bitch about it on the internet, or are you actually going to do something about it - storming the Capitol not necessarily has to be a part of it - you can plan a better alternative.

Reason is always “unmoderated” despite some of the banned subreddits being fully moderated.

Well, that's a lie, because /r/programming still has mods. Pretty sure they did nothing in the last 10 years. I guess it's because the sub wasn't NSFW, I guess.

NPM

Nginx-Proxy-Manager. Got it.

I didn't read the parent comment well enough and was wondering what the Node Package Manager had to do with anything 😂

vscode with the built-in Emmet support.

Emmet isn't intimidating, unless you don't know CSS, in which case it is extremely intimidating.

 html

    
a+b:
<a href=""></a><b></b>

a>b:
<a href=""><b></b></a>

a*2:
<a href=""></a><a href=""></a>

div.yeet:
<div class="yeet"></div>

A combination:
a>b+i*2.dollah:
<a href=""><b></b><i class="dollah"></i><i class="dollah"></i></a>

  

That's 99% of what you need to know to get started with Emmet.

Anyway, I used to write 100% hand-written HTML, but switched to using Hugo because: Go's built-in Templating language I knew from working with K8S, build-times are sub-second, and I can write a page in either Markdown or HTML, whichever I need (or even mix in some HTML in the Markdown!)

Because of hugo I don't need to mess around with repeating parts (like the nav menu).

Only downsides:

• it strips the comments, which I would've loved to leave in for people to read
• the formatting is my favorite, so I format with prettier before committing

I use git submodules to have the public/ folder be my Github Pages host repo, so I can just muck about locally, while I do a rebuild (which changes the files in the submodule). Only after a commit, I'll effectively publish the website.

Check out the website (mostly for the HTML - the articles are... meh): https://thaumatorium.com/ (no trackers, so no Cookiewall nonsense either :D)

I'm late to the party, but I've categorized them by year. If I feel nostalgic, I just browse the top of the list.

BlueSky actually is federated, AFAIK: https://docs.bsky.app/docs/advanced-guides/federation-architecture

It does use its own protocol (AT instead of ActivityPub)

Can I slap a decorator on a Bash function? I love my @retry(...) (via tenacity, even if it's a bit wordy).

Basically a wrapper to run rust scripts right from the command line.

Isn't that just Python? :v

I currently have it sorted by year (I used some year date from Steam, but that isn't super accurate as I think it's the date it was added to Steam). I think I used Depressurizer?

I used to have it sorted by the Steam score, IIRC.

Because rules are meant to be broken :3

(I just recreated the original because that one is jpegged to hell and back. I used draw.io (used the original image as background), then exported as SVG, jammed it through SVGOMG, and then let ChatGPT do one last optimization because the font stuff was a bit too much, removed the whitespace and comments - boom: 700kb SVG)

I always figured the types are descriptive, not prescriptive - don't behave to the type you get. Also, the output should be a percentage, not a binary.

For example: I'm mid-way between T and F

I'm biased BTW, because of what MBTI did for me: taught me I'm not autistic: just introverted 😂

I think this is inevitable, which is why we (worldwide) need laws where if a model scrapes public data should become open itself as well.

Space Marine 2 is sharp AF BTW. Also not Unreal Engine, but the Swarm Engine, BTW.

The texture detail in that game is crazy, even though you normally don't see most of it because it's too small.

It also has a really fun gameplay loop, that I haven't felt in a while. Good shit.

See, telling your supposed enemy your intentions was the first mistake. If you didn't intend to go through with it, then it was just an empty threat. Either way it's dumb.

The Adjuster

Luck should be taken into account. Once you are done with your degree, perhaps the market will have recovered a bit, because I'm hearing a lot of negative feedback lately.

edit: If you're not sure, you can take a peek at this graph of free MIT YouTube courses. Choose something interesting on the right, then figure out where to start on the left to get to your chosen point. Each course can easily take about 100 hours, which sounds a lot, but if you do them you can take that knowledge and more easily extrapolate information in the future.

Here's a comparison:

I used https://www.diffchecker.com/image-compare/ - I uploaded the two files there.
