@xgranadeCassandra Granade 🏳️‍⚧️ there should be like a TOS clickthrough gate though that requires that if you're a Rust or Go programmer who wants to use PyPI as your distribution infrastructure because it's the logistically superior mechanism, you're contractually prohibited from ever posting about how "python packaging sucks" again

this is a gender thing

Current rating is typically a measured function of the female socket/connector. The amount of current a solid, male, brass pin can tolerate is a direct relation of the heat displaced based on current and the ability of neighboring components to handle displaced heat.

i do not value your privacy, which is why my website does not have any trackers on it what so ever. i have positively no idea if any human being besides myself has ever actually opened my website. your privacy is worth zero dollars to me. you couldn't even pay me to take it away.

@dfortesDaniel Fortes yeah the second gilded age does have some upsides... if we ask the billionaires politely and show appropriate deference when we bow down to kiss the ring. God forbid we make a single rich person feel even slightly uncomfortable, ever.

All the Adventures dips back to 1982 for a space sim-adventure game hybrid from Japan. I give the history of how a music company switched to games and the workings behind the space-combat section:

JBM has been working on refactoring #Kdenlive’s keyframing system and, along the way, is developing a dopesheet (an interface that displays all parameters in a single timeline). Below is an initial prototype.

Check out the details in the status report:

にゃんぷっぷーに青汁飲ませる人になりつつある

I recently saw someone leave fedi at least temporarily as a result of harassment, and one thing they highlighted was that most of us don't see the harassment they were getting because of how federation works and the fact that our instances block all the vile ones most of the harassment was coming from.

They were running their own single-user instance. 🙁

We really need better resources for single user instances to benefit from third-party moderation resources, but we also need to get the narrative out that running a single user instance is a horrible idea unless you want to be your own fulltime moderator or drowned in engagement from the worst parts of the net. Treating it as a viable option now really sours folks to the whole concept.

It is kind of fascinating seeing PyPI take on the role of "generic artifact distribution infrastructure," but I'll defend that that's good, actually. It's remarkably easy, what with improvements in Python package management in general, to specify that building or contributing to a Python package has development-time dependencies on non-Python tooling.

There are two problems in computer science:

1. We could do this better
2. We should not do this at all

A.I. is adept at replicating something that already exists, says A.I.Co, breathlessly. It's also very good at replicating parts of 3 books I co-wrote which were (allegedly) pirated as part of its training data. Funny, that.
