  • because the alien stories help keep the secrets, that worked well for area 51 for a long time

  • I loved this analogy, it works for old languages as old movies, some characteristics as movie genres and to explain there is not just one and only right language, and that people would have different preferences.

  • the work will be done for people with slightly different job titles? there is a lot of different titles that are mostly the same

  • I didn't ban anyone on my instance, it's a new one. They appear on this screen and in the modlog, it doesn't say anything about the type of ban

  • It's a manual action, that must be taken for all instances AFAIK. An attacking software could pretend to be thousands of new instances, and a DDOS attack against lemmy is something that already happened in the past.

  • I was a bit conflicted about asking that too. I guess for anyone actively searching for vulnerabilities to attack that will be obvious enough

  • I'm asking mostly out of curiosity, but I had a use case that I would like to completely avoid a build step. At work we have a very old web interface, that when I attempt to sell the idea of any major improvement the answer is "this is end of life, we are rewriting it". But the rewrite will take a long time, and it is easier to make gradual improvements without introducing new tooling. This one is from the 90s, there the JS is in a folder and is shipped as is.

  • Seriously, the first seasons it was one of my favorites series ever, then they started being all politics, and forgot about the protomolecule and alien things. I didn't watch many episodes after the start of season 4 to check if it ever recovers, but the reviews I found said it doesn't, and I left amazon prime after that.

  • The expanse should have ended after season 3

  • It is recursively changing the angle at random and shrinking the size. I dunno if that would count as a L-system, the wikipedia article for L-system has too much math that I don't understand

  • I am a fellow organic food ingesting, carbon based human, using my meat based appendices to slowly communicate with other carbon based humans on the public network. While I type this my meat based appendices are getting very tired, because I totally had to use mechanical movements to close electrical circuits in a very inneficient way to send signals to a computer

  • There is a bot posting ai generated stuff on my server, but this is my normal account, to post normal human things

  • About the third point, the performance of your JavaScript code can be worse if it's broken down into several small files rather than a single, bundled file. When a browser encounters a script tag linking to an external JavaScript file, it makes an HTTP request to fetch that file. This process occurs for each separate file. Each HTTP request involves time for network latency, server processing, and data transfer.

    I'm usually preferring typescript too, but this point got me curious. I'm guessing it wasn't an honest point, almost everywhere I look people are still using a build step, and I didn't notice any move in a different direction

  • Whenever I tested something that sounds great yet it is slow to get adoption I end learning a reason why it it's not growing. It's good to learn what the reason is before you spend a lot of time on it

  • As a Brazillian, I think it would probably be good if we were at NATO, but we're not.

  • are browsers and libs good enough to do front end without a build step yet?
