They exist??

Gross

I’ve had two standouts bad interactions too, but chalked it up to luck.

It felt weirder to me a few years ago. But over time a just vaguely identifiable character for 2010 to 2019 has emerged when I think of that decade.

The programming socks will be the first sign.

I like to read until I hit a noun, then look to see what community this it was posted to, then kinda riff it from there.

It’s also always been the way that the people who actually clicked the link get to come into the comments and be frustrated at us for being legitimately wrong.

I can kinda see it, though he’s not my cup of tea. I like my videos a bit more essay-like and a bit more serious mode.

Even just mirroring.

Is there a tool already that makes it easy to upload to both? Idk, I haven’t uploaded a video since like the 10s

TIL I look quite a bit like 2 LA cops in particular

Also look at how FB et al can’t even keep themselves from tracking you all over the internet using all kinds of clever engineering engineering beyond plain cookies.

If it actually becomes ubiquitous, the ability to tie all the anonymous impressions to one person is too tempting for surveillance ghouls.

I believe any good thing you can say about crypto will eventually be coopted and controlled by capital.

The same is true for all “disruptive” technology unless it’s built specifically to be hostile to monied interests, like the fediverse - and even then, you have to continue defending it against incursions.

As soon as you could exchange it for real money it just became another tool of capital to move in secret.

4 years wow, so you must really remember the more quiet times. Even just in the last 1 to 2 years it’s got so much busier.

I wish the rich would take advantage of our more virtuous qualities. Like I would love for someone to back me financially to go around compulsively pulling up invasive plants and lobbing pollinator flower bombs into abandoned lots.

I’m so spoiled by searchable settings that it feels like I’m back in the 50s if I actually have to manually click around menus looking for a setting.

Oh that is a good point actually. It’s been a while since I have done any serious Python, so I’m not sure why you couldn’t just use convention instead of this conditional.

For my part, if a Python script is meant to be executed, then I’ll give it a shebang, drop the .py, and simply mark it as executable in the filesystem. 🤷‍♂️

I’m not sure I’m following the implication. Name=main is for scripts primary, is it not?

I’ve never thought to add more than one of these conditionals anyway…

I remember how weird this looked the first time I saw it and while I may now understand it, it still looks jank af
