> Nobody wants to use them. Wikipedia is basically the most popular application of all time and it doesn't rely on javascript. People just generally don't give a shit about where their money goes.

At this point it doesn't even feel good to flex evidence of a warning But, anyone who thinks we need JS for a functional internet is fucking retarded

Hell yea. Let's see some real leaks.

I've been making money from reddit, and for about a decade and a half and at this point, why bother? It's basically drained and what remains is of zero value.

The only reason to use nitter is that for whatever reason twitter allows it access to its api. The UI is terrible and completely irrelevant.

Obviously such a thing would be horrible, but there is sourcehut.

eh anyone going to github knows what they want. At this point it's a flex to be hosted elsewhere

How do you get API approval?

Racket has been able to produce standalone executables for a while now.

Oh! I wonder if my field (history) is particularly bad or my social network is just particularly disgruntled.

Surely you should use every tool at your disposal including the courts?

The MAGA agenda is just a tiny sliver of what the government actually does (albeit, a particularly culturally obnoxious sliver). On most economic and foreign policy the two parties are in emphatic agreement. The Democratic Party mostly exis

Yes, hence my comment.

Well, they're also terrible at spending state resources despite high taxes (outside of income tax). One of, if not the worst, public education systems in the country. Pretty bad urban planning, too. Decent food and music tho

Russia, Saudi Arabia, and Iran seem to be doing just fine.

?? Russia, the US, half the damn gulf states seem to be doing just fine (maybe excluding Bahrain and Iraq). Very much including Iran, despite our efforts to strangle it to death for fifty years straight. > I think Norway might be the onl

What are the counterexamples? Maybe Nigeria? EDIT: yes, also Iraq and Venezuela

This is how people talk about how ancient greeks viewed blue, except we actually can't see this color normally.

I wouldn't consider an IDE-specific integration very modern (in IDE terms) in the age of LSP.

They are quite competent at causing enough chaos for those with inside knowledge and wealth to exploit.

These are not topics easily separated. The rich are anxious to find returns; the rest of us are anxious about furthering a wealth gap and societal dysfunction further. "AI" might as well be synonymous with both concerns.

I don't think anyone is worried about a CEO's ego, lol. Society can only protect them so much in a material sense... just ask Brian Thompson.

In a world with such strong async communication and logistics, surely this is less of a constraint than ever.

Hm. That seems rather inconclusive. Thank you.

I'm saying that even public domain books are pricier yet lower quality for the price than ever. As others have pointed out, the mass market paperback has vanished from non-used bookstores. I suspect I misunderstood you and by "new
