I had one interaction with them, and they seemed so helpful and levelheaded. 🫣

This dude federates

😉

I wish I got that.

I mean, do whatever you can. If you got a friend you can crash at, do that. If HOA says no to your shit that you need to survive, do it anyway and maybe take them to court? I dunno. Anything if it’s a matter of survival! Stay safe out there! The world is changing as we live and breathe.

2farfetched4me, I didn’t get it at all. 😬

Can confirm, playing badminton for hours at a time during summer in poorly ventilated halls really does build your heat tolerance 😅

Pro tip, being a large bottle of water laced with electrolytes.

No, just something interesting to try of you think you can handle it and have access to a sauna.

But yes, what else can be done on a global level when temperature is rising. It’s already happening so it’s good to explore how we deal with it.

Find shade, cover your windows on the outside with reflective material, make sure there’s proper airflow through the home, hydrate, avoid strenuous activity, etc. Nobody will do this for you unless you ask (so still on you).

What on earth does that have to do with this?

The lang attribute exists for other elements, but not on the script tag. 👍

Yeah the - 1 + 1 was weird to me too, serves no purpose.

I can see how choosing a new random number for each fetch would prevent the server from caching the response, I suppose.

I can’t imagine this code was written in any other fashion than completely rage-induced, with shaking fingers and high blood pressure. 😂 What a putz.

Uh huh. Exactly.

The type attribute is not only to specify the language. It’s like one case out of several. It definitely matters in those contexts where you want to do the other things you can do with the type attribute.

Expert dev. Doesn’t even know the attribute for setting the language in the script tag is type, not lang. Not to mention that you are encouraged to omit the attribute altogether if the script tag contains JavaScript…

Petty, and a bad dev. Big yikes.

Didn’t mean it as a slight, but I did think the whole setup was kind of obvious.

Fair enough, but since you then run into someone who doesn’t think that is obvious (me), how do you think you make them feel when you go “well I thought it was obvious buuuuut okay then I guess 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️”? That’s how it comes across to the receiving person that doesn’t find it obvious. FYI for future interactions when you run into someone dumber than you (me and people like me, I guess). 👍

Regarding the rest:

In my country, we are shocked by what is said on the news in some other countries. Everything is extremely biased and loaded with opinion and value, and is not reported from a neutral standpoint, with facts and observations.

A country needs independent news, funded by the people (taxes). My country has several news outlets which are state funded with taxes, which are legally required to be unbiased and factual, and non-discriminatory. They are required to issue statements and corrections when this is violated, and have done so in the past. This is good.

They have also started a new push where they scrutinize viral clips of news or other reporting, which may or may not be fake, and either debunk or confirm their veracity, with evidence. Makes me proud. 🙂‍↕️

With this in mind, I feel like other countries might be more afraid of the media being controlled. But it’s certainly not impossible even in my country, of course.

I will say that I believe kids don’t belong on social media before a certain age. But age verification is not the way to do this. Parents need to step up here, for one thing.

I thought it went without saying, but, okay.

Okay, this sounds like you’re low-key trying to tell me I’m slow. :⁠-⁠P

Very interesting theory, though. Definitely sounds dangerous in the long-run.

My comment was tongue-in-cheek.

But I’m not sure I follow you here: this wave of proposals does mean trouble on many levels, but how does limiting the younger part of the world from accessing social media limit what truth is available to me regarding what the rich and powerful are up to?

Yeah, it was meant as tongue-in-cheek.

Duh.

This would just make it easier.

But I still don’t want this. This was mostly tongue-in-cheek. I guess it was unclear, judging by the votes lol.

I’m on the fence of whether I am for or against this. It’s strictly against privacy. Bad.

But if this passes, it might give me a good reason to just opt out of social media altogether. Might be good for me. 💁‍♂️

Edit: this was meant as tongue-in-cheek. Sorry if it was unclear.

Exactly
