I don't really understand your hostile response nor foaming-at-the-mouth hatred of blockchain technology (I'm guessing it came from a bad interaction with a crypto bro on Twitter or something), however I think OP is just saying th

HTMX/Rust seem like great choices for making good architectural decisions, having long-term scalability, and having great performance, but certainly not for rapid prototyping. If I'm validating a business idea / building a pr

I was on an MFE team earlier this year. It was sold to higher-ups as being for both, but I think in most cases it's bad for both. IME, it was sold in terms of code code-reuse by providing things like shared navigation bars, shared auth

After I lost all of my purchases after deleting my Facebook account (not that I used my old Quest anyways), I decided I would never purchase another Meta product (even though that's probably the LEAST abusive thing they do).

I'm not that familiar with IPFS I must admit (though it looks great conceptually), but if using the curl CLI tool, why would the operator not just curl the public gateway address? I'm confused on why such a shallow abstraction was

Well on the bright side, hopefully this incentivizes Jitsi to finally put first-class OIDC support into the codebase, which it still lacks. I don't want to set up an entire LDAP server when I already have Authelia running.

I would be surprised if politicians and regulators even know what a web browser is, so this might be a tough sell to them.

I'm in the process of doing this now, using Postmark's SMTP relay. Hopefully one day I'll meet their requirements for not retaining logs: 1. Account must be Approved and in good standing for at least 6 months 2. Account must

I could not disagree more. I really don't think people are going to trust Meta that much more over Twitter. I'm a pretty avid Twitter lurker and I don't even plan on trying out the app. I'm also a very happy Lemmy and Ma

OP is saying that the policy of the luggage being held by the FAA is stupid, not that preventing people from taking their luggage in an emergency is stupid. The emergency is over: the plane landed. Everyone got off the plane. Give them back

The reason for this (unjustified IMO) is bot/scraping prevention. On most VPNs you cannot browse profiles unless you're logged in. TikTok has a much more elegant solution to this problem (while still being a nightmare for bots&#x2

Different strokes for different folks. And by "strokes" I mean use-cases, design preferences, integration needs, etc. Personally I'd use RevoltChat if they offered SSO/SAML/OpenID support - I like the UX and the Dis

I very much doubt many good actors left the service over it. I assume their popularity comes from a battle-tested no-logs claim, a good UI/UX, and a general consensus that they're trustworthy.

Oh it's certainly not for me, no question about it. Yet, it's curious that you compare Slint to LVGL/Flutter/Electron (I don't know about Qt) when none of them have this intrusive requirement. --- >What's in

>Attribution to Slint Mmmm no thanks, I'll pass. While I'm looking for a Flutter alternative, this seems like a trap.

Yeah that 48 hour limit really was a misstep. There were a handful of times today I wanted to research something and hit the private wall, surprising me each time. It showed me that if this protest was indefinite, it could have a real impac

Not to be an asshole, but --- well, I guess I'll be an asshole. This is good, thoroughly-researched advice with just enough condescension that I walked away from it kinda wanting to style my own CSS scrollbars. Additionally, there&#x27

Why is Spez so insistent on becoming public enemy #1? He's so obviously in the wrong here, yet is doubling, tripling, and quadrupling down on what is an obvious screw-up. Frankly I think this might be a worse PR move than what Elon did

Just imagine what'll happen when sideloading eventually makes its way to the US - the less-illegal sister of piracy, scraping, is going to make a huge resurgence.

I got really excited for a second thinking this was infrastructure orchestration. Like AI, I want my no-code tools to enhance my current setup, not replace it. If I could visually build CDNs that connect to APIs that connect to databases, w

This is why I dont understand all the doomerism. If Apple is totally bullshitting here, we're going to find out extremely quickly, which will undoubtedly harm their reputation in the space when it comes to the next generations. If they

The issue is so many of these brands are labelling themselves as conservative and are therefore unpalatable to not only those on the left, but to those who lean towards the center or aren't politically minded. If these companies began

Your take doesn't make sense at all to me. It's an open source project - their customers are going to be small businesses with small teams of technical people to maintain it. I don't think they're competing with QuickBoo

I was cracking up when it started playing the bagpipes. I don't think its too much of an exaggeration to say this is what happens when security teams don't receive enough pushback from the higher ups or from other teams. I see thi
