Somewhat, but I’m thinking of the future of federation as a torrenty mesh of peers with no actual hosting “service” that can be turned off. That’s how I picture the Cortex in the Firefly universe. When Simon as a boy is excited about getting a “source box” I imagine it’s a participant as opposed to just an endpoint.
Federated as opposed to using a Wordpress hosting service etc that can be turned off by someone’s business decision.
I signed up for early access, but tbh based on the signup page it’s hard to have a lot of confidence in anyone who thinks really light gray text on a white background is a sensible idea.
IN CASE OF FIRE:
1. git commit
2. git push
3. exit building
I remember having a somewhat difficult transition from a keyboard editor to Word, Notepad, etc in the 90s. I didn’t use EMACS but a similar one called EDT. I had used it so much I never thought about which keys to press, it was more like playing the piano - my fingers knew how to do what my brain wanted. Moving a mouse around and watching the cursor are additional mental activities you don’t need with keystroke editors. This is one reason many Linux users are still hardcore command-line users. They get stuff done a lot faster.
Longtime software dev here. I complain about code bugs all the time - I’m like, who the fuck wrote and tested this piece of crap?
It’s been said that indecisiveness and perfectionism are liberal weaknesses, and decisiveness and being willing to ignore imperfections for the sake of the team are conservative strengths. I think Michael Moore put it best… Liberals say, “What should we do about dinner? I don’t know… do you want to go out? I dunno, do you? Well, if you do. Okay, where should we go? I dunno, where do you wanna go?” A conservative slams his hand on the table and says, “Get in the car, we’re goin’ to the Sizzler!”
So many other things are also non-binary, but people insist that not being 100% on their side means you’re a million percent on the extreme opposite hateful wrong side.
Same principle as, “A lawyer who represents himself has a fool for a client?”
Might get around to tidying this 20-year-old mess up a bit - tho I’m not sure where to start lol.
I am not a proud man.
Create a function that goes into an infinite loop. Then test that function.
One thing I really do hate is a download page with a giant green DOWNLOAD button that’s just an ad link, and the thing I went there to download is a tiny text link.
LOL yeah I actually understand that last part LOL (former web dev, retired). Sites jinking around while the ads load and I’ve already started reading the content are super annoying.
If pi-hole blocks all ads how does the web look? Do pages have a lot of blank areas on them or what?
Is installing VSCode locally “self hosting”? I thought that was how everybody did it. I just run the executable - no Docker or anything - for coding, testing etc. but I’m not sure what a VSCode “server” would even do.
I’ve tried those but I prefer the traditional long-axis blade style.
4.3 ??? Hell, I haven’t updated my peeler since 2.1 - no wonder my stove won’t even boot.
I think you pretty much just now wrote a landing page, you just need to turn those into links and host that page somewhere.
Sure, you could create a database or JSON file with attributes of each thing and use React or Node.js to generate the UI, but that doesn’t seem necessary for a need on this scale - when things change just edit the landing page. I’ve been keeping links to my soft copies of D&D books and stuff with a simple HTML page for years, and I’m a web dev. No need to do work the requirements don’t demand.
