The bigger problem is advertising drives needless and wasteful consumption.

Computers use next to nothing in total. Almost all energy is used on heating/cooling, transport and farming.

Privacy is very important but its just a drop in the ocean compared to environmental disaster. Google tracking you browse the internet seems unimportant compared extinction.

Couldnt get it to load but it would be nice if it was not just limited to github. I have a few issues on my project on gitlab labeled good first issue.

Much better than telegram which has in the ToS that you may not make a client that does not sent read receipts.

I'm far less concerned about this because all my messages were end to end encrypted.

Iirc jquery was also the most hated just under drupal

This gets posted a lot but there are so many versions of jquery on so many different cdns that very rarely is it the case. I saw some research on it and it was in the single digit percentage of times.

I dont hate jQuery but I just find it useless for modern web dev. If you can ignore internet explorer you can do everything jquey did with just vanilla js.

I tried vuejs recently for a little interactive page on my website and found it revolutionary compared to jquery.

How can you possibly develop a product when none of your developers have been around for more than a few months?

This reminded me that when I try to imagine things while almost sleeping the imagination will be actively sabotaged unless I focus very hard to wressle back control.

If I'm thinking of a plane flying it will spin out of control, if I'm thinking of sheep jumping over a fence they will stop moving or the fence will fall over.

I can mostly picture things but its not particularly vivid like a photo. If I think of a big area it kind of seems like there is a spotlight of detail where the focused area I am thinking of will be fairly detailed but the rest fades away.

This change mainly affects developers who will now have to pay apples ransom if they want anyone to be able to run their app.

The only way to crack down on this is to prevent apps sending any data at all and to minimise the use of proprietary software. As soon as your personal data leaves your phone and hits someone else's server they will sell it.

Its a bit of a hard problem which we tried to solve using a permissions system but its a hassle because its hard to tell if a permission is being used legitimately and the average user just hits accept on anything because they don't know how to verify if something seems right.

The GDPR was a step in the right direction where it allows you to say no to tracking and still use the service as normal.

With some games you can not or at least will not soon. The first few waves of games with online features now have their online parts shut down. A lot of games are online only now so when those games shut their servers it will be all over.

And then someone else tries to read your code. One of the things I love about ruby dev is its not about providing 10000 ways to do the same thing but about making sure that given a simple problem, every developer will solve it in pretty much the same way.

Iview is the one I'm talking about. YouTube DL basically downloads the unencrypted video direct from the server but the website doesn't work until you enable drm

Unless you have been doing deeply corrupt work for them for years you are not going to be making any change at that megacorp. I know someone who worked there and they just remove anyone who does not conform.

People with any sense of ethics don't work at Facebook.

It almost seams entirely to please management. The local TV stations use eme and yet youtube-dl still works fine on them.

Its always DNS first and everyone says "lol, just change your DNS" and then they start doing real blocks. Optus in Australia did an IP level block of 4chan recently.

Those games were the best for wasting time at school

By making it public to view you agree others can load the page and view the code. Loading the page and viewing it is downloading it.

Just ban spam calling.

You just listed 2 more bits of proprietary crap though.

Why? I see lots of jobs listing ads for remote positions.

I very much appreciate the code generation. I hate having to make repetitive changes in 4 places to add a new file because nothing is wired up automatically.

Its only an issue when it doesn't work, and for rails it basically always works. In 4 years using rails the only time I have ever had to read the source was to find an undocumented feature in Active Storage which had only just came out.

Same. If I reinstall the OS on my raspberry pi I will ignore the warning. I once had an issue where using the WiFi hotspot on a coworkers phone caused the SSH warning to trigger and neither of us could work out why. I did not ignore that warning.

Yeah the security of matrix + riot seems like the best of its kind. The issues come from the extra security causing some things to be a bit of a bad user experience but its getting better.
