Then again, Minecraft used to be (maybe still is? I haven't modded in a while) a big mess of spaghetti code but somehow modders not only made it work, but made it work without any documentation and working from obfuscated code.
God I miss the old Roblox. Every now and then I come back to see what's up. A lot of the old places are still there, but some of the scripts don't work anymore. I always look back at my old places from waaaaayyy back and every time I do I see them through different eyes and come to understand child me a little bit differently. Roblox around '08 was really something special.
By the way, if you were active on the old forums somebody went and archived them: https://archive.froast.io/
I'm glad I never used my actual name, looking at my dumbass posts lol
EDIT: By the way, there's some really cool shit being made by the new kids, I mean Roblox did make a ton of money off them after all. Recently I played a bit of the AoT game. And of course there's Dress to Impress. The barrier to entry for places is a lot higher now.
is-sorted and a handful of about 300 other npm packages. Cloning the repo and installing takes about 16 hours but after that you're pretty much good for the rest of eternity
Your freedom to do those things under capitalism is wholly bound by your existing wealth, and wealth begets wealth. When your parents are well off, you can get into good schools, get better education, and ultimately get a better job and, really, be a better worker bringing more wealth into the already existing pool of wealth your family had. Those who have been disenfranchised by way of things like eminent domain, redlining, or the straight up prosecution of them and their fellow men simply don't have that option to rise up. They don't even have the opportunity to try and fail, they've failed by their very existence. At a macro scale, once you've reached the top (e.x. Facebook, Google, Amazon, etc.) you have the resources to not only out-do any of the competition but to sell products at a loss to starve your competition and bully them into submission, which big companies do all the time instead of investing in better products. It's just good business.
Circumstance plays a lot into how much wealth you start out with and how much wealth you end up being able to accrue, so while it's nice being not even at the top but even just the middle, it's important to have the mindfulness to know that there are those below you who don't have the same freedoms, and they're not there because their businesses did poorly. Some of them are, but most are simply victims of greater powers stealing their capital.
What sucks is if there was no commercial part here - i.e. like how you're doing it just for fun, or if we lived in a magical world where we all just agreed that creative works were the shared output of humanity as a whole - then there would be no problem, we'd all be free to just use what we need to make new things however we want. But there is a commercial part to it, somebody is trying to gain using the collective work of others, and that makes it unethical.
Converting code too! I've used LLMs to go from Node -> GoLang, and that's basically how I learned to code in Go coming from a less low-level background. You can also ask about what the current best practices are.
I've definitely run into this as well in my own self-hosting journey. When you're learning it's easier to get it to just draft up a config - then learn what the options mean after the fact then it is to RTFM from the beginning.
Now that is an interesting target to get tons of people off twitter. If all these K Pop labels like Hybe and JYP suddenly started publishing on BlueSky their fans would immediately follow suit
I wouldn't say I'm in control per se when I don't have the option to just do the update whenever I feel like it. I'm in control the same way a prisoner is in control of whether or not they eat that day by just not eating. Like, put it behind a giant bold unmissable piece of text that says "IF YOU DO THIS YOU ARE PUTTING YOUR MACHINE AT RISK AND HACKERS WILL IMMEDIATELY STEAL ALL YOUR MONEY" but don't make it so it's impossible for me to do without some workaround.
It's a bit hacky but I suppose there's always the option of using a separate WebDAV server on the directory where frappe drive stores its files. I haven't tried something like that, though. Unfortunately I don't know of any integration within frappe drive itself. Seems they're accepting contributions now so it's possible these will be implemented in the future. WebDAV is a bit of its own beast, though, so that'll be a huge undertaking in my opinion.
It's an ironic name. Like our morbidly obese friend, Tiny.
