The thread it was on was an absolute shit show. Right wingers were out en masse reporting every left leaning comment. Eventually the mods and admins showed up and began deleting or banning every left leaning comment, even relatively mundane ones.

TBF, I got banned from Reddit after RvW for saying riot police should quit their jobs en masse. Reddit likes to quench any kind of dissent

You mean the future oil fields of America?

I’m a big fan of both in their own ways. Avatar had overall better story writing, Korra was less restricted to kid friendly scenes.

Except for season 2. The only part I care about there is Avatar Wan

As someone who’s played XCom, a 1.5% chance of a bad thing (questionable) means it’s gonna critically hit

So which is it Ms. Adelson? Are you insane or simply evil? There’s absolutely no doubt - none at all - that it’s one or the other.

Both

I’ve been using TP-link Kasa cams for a bit, I have four of them now. If you’re hyper conscious about security it’s probably best not to look at their EUC though, but otherwise I quite like them.

The other downside is that the newer models require a subscription, the older models don’t. I have the KC110 and KC120.

Username checks out

If my partner and I are anything like the average puzzle enjoyer, we look at the box for the big picture. Mostly until we have enough put together that we don’t need it any more. The only time we rely on the box more is when the puzzle is very repetitive with subtle differences

Homebrew offers way better 5e content than anything WotC-affiliated. It also supports small authors

We could easily use AI nowadays to identify trash in glass bottles at record speeds. Hell, there are models out there identifying cancer in cells right now.

12 bits to an eagle

27 eagles to a liberty (changes whenever an amendment is added)

1776 liberties to a freedom

Computers are still programmed in bytes, but filesize is always in freedoms.

Looking at my last 4 NYC apartments, how is that even physically possible?

“The snacks are too dry”

I’ll consider empathizing with conservatives when they aren’t trying to legislate away every aspect of my existence. I’m not going to apologize for having disdain for white supremacists and their supporters.

The value of good frontend engineering.

I recently stumbled upon this blog post that describes it better than I could

Returning to Gaza? They were never there to begin with

Their stock has been slowly dwindling down from people using them as baseball bats, table legs, and firewood

Thanks for posting this.

Good frontend work is HARD. It requires both design and engineering knowledge, and it’s very easy to write unmaintainable or inaccessible code. It also requires a high amount of backend work via BFFs, load balancing, hosting and serving, credential management, and more. The cherry on top is that it’s basically all async code.

To be clear, I’m talking about the types of FEs used by thousands internationally, fully adherent to WCAG 2.2 (and above), and with rich interactivity. I’m not talking about someone’s hobby project with a couple dozen users at best.

Seeing backend elitists diminish its worth is tiring as all hell. To me, it indicates that the person is either new to the industry or looking for a sense of superiority because they don’t understand FE work. It’s meaningless and exhausting to read.

Tldr: I agree
