This is hilarious. Hating Microsoft will never go out of style. Fun to see the youngs rediscover it. Also hilarious is that Codeberg as a frontend is slow as hell; slower than Github even.
It's virtue signaling plain and simple. People who crafted their identities around the current thing in ~2017 are religiously attached to having to be part of the in group and can't let it go, and it inevitably bubbles up like this.
This will no doubt rankle those who align with that group, but they are a pathetic remnant of a terrible period of rampant sociopathy.
This is exactly my take as well. The people leaving and putting out the call for others to follow them are the same ones that lost their power when the platform changed hands and the ideologies of the people who run it changed.
That's in of itself, sad. The lack of efficiency is mind-bottling [1]. There were states with large populations that had 90-100% of results in a matter of hours.
Was just in Canada recently and despite the favorable exchange rate, I couldn't believe how expensive groceries were compared to the states. Everything from juice to eggs to bread to meat was 1.5 - 2x the cost back home.
Possibly relevant, but they seem to have a hard time hiring and retaining talent. There's been a consistent player in my LinkedIn inbox from 2018 to present (even post-ZIRP) and that's Kroger engineering recruiters.
Completely uninterested in Bluesky as it was the favorite non-mastodon target for the most insufferable people that I'd run across on the old Twitter. I'm legitimately happy for them that there's a place they enjoy participating, but want nothing to do with it.
quite the leap from a few too many drinks, directly to therapy and mental health issues. if that's your take from someone being drunk and saying something ridiculous then I'd question your judgement.
Android makes it difficult to route pictures and videos anywhere other than Google photos
I've been an android user for well over 10 years and find this to be wholly inaccurate. I have pictures backing up automatically in three different places with no friction whatsoever.
Be it Google Drive, iCloud, OneDrive, Dropbox, or Amazon - you pay for cloud storage. This is a known fact.
how deep does the support go? i.e. can we safely import from node platform builtins like `os` or are the same bundling gymnastics still required there? (fwiw this is one of the major issues with vercel's edge funcs)
