Man, how do I get 3M on Kickstarter? Do I just have to lie and put up videos of standard unity assets?

Not yet. But it’s being brought up often enough that somebody will probably start working on it in earnest. IIRC somebody did start somethit, but I think it was abandoned

It’s not called “correct” coding for a reason.

That’s why people are wrong so often: they feel like something is right, but don’t check. That’s how you get anti -vaxxers, manospere people, MAGA, QAnon, Brexit, etc.

CSS is terrible, no doubt about it, but the problem is exactly that: native GUI frameworks haven’t changed in the way they work. Why else do you think electron became popular? Obviously there was reason for it

Let’s be honest, it’s the easiest. I’ve been trying to write UIs in pure rust and python recently and let me tell you, it’s a drag.

Some frameworks don’t even support writing your own components, some don’t allow reusing parts of the UI, some don’t even have proper layout engines you can modify, theming can be difficult, others dont have reactive values, most don’t have a fast dev loop (make a change, see it, repeat), and so on. I’ve even tried using game engines like Godot and Bevy.

We like complaining about Electron, but let’s be serious, as bad as it is, the other stuff is worse.

If the rich keep taking and not giving, it’s bound to happen.

Someone shoots a CEO, another sets a warehouse on fire due to low wages, this dude sets fire to a gate of a billionaire… What will the next thing be?

It could’ve been a random list of accounts with similar passwords

Yes, the companies that kowtow to the pedophile with the finger over the red button are upset about child protection.

Not if the Twits migrate in large enough numbers. They have already forced the hand of the mastodon devs tom implement twitter-like features. It’s only going to get worse.

3rd hint: their passwords are…

There is a difference between arguing and brigading. Whether it’s done by humans or bots doesn’t make much of a difference. If the narrative being spread is one dimensional, that’s toxic.

Dogpiling someone for having an AI avatar is going a little far.

Hot kinky forgejo has a new competitor!

Yes yes, not marketing at all. “It’s so powerful, only those worthy enough can wield it.” Make it so exclusive it seems illicit to acquire, that people will pay anything to join the club.

Is the fediverse just as toxic as twitter?

Why not monero?

I am that niche! Me, all alone 🦄

Another Orban term and he would’ve made it impossible to criticise the government safely. Watching documentaries about Russia, people there are afraid to criticise their supreme leaders and their friends. They will say stuff like “I won’t say anything that will bring me in trouble”.

The next election is going to be critical.

Hello @eff@mastodon.social 👋

The same reaction whenever I look at haskell. A “pure” language with an escape hatch that has a fancy name. Once you open the escape hatch, you can write entirely impure code in Haskell and never see a pure function in your life. So much for “pure”.
