I’ve seen some active instances die due to admin neglect (not paying the bills, for instance), and I’ve wondered how those communities have fared since, since they’d have to start over elsewhere, and without all the content and history from their origin server. Same goes with user accounts too.
Just read a thing about how persistent usernames may work better than actual ID. Of course, I don’t have a link, and I’m not finding anything on Google right now, but as someone who uses the same handle across multiple services, which makes my activity traceable, but not necessarily to my real identity, I definitely think there’s something to that.
Maybe you can find something with this: https://lemmyverse.net/communities

my secret mission with Perchance is to get people interested in coding with a smooth, fun learning-curve
Seems like it worked!
I do web dev on a daily basis, and I tend to think of HTML as “formatted” data.
A database has data in it, but it’s in a format of columns and rows, like a spreadsheet.
My application fetches that raw data and uses code to manipulate it - it can inspect it, rewrite it, combine it with other data from other places, validate it against rules - all sorts of stuff.
Since my app is a web app, all that code is designed to use the data formatted in columns and rows from the database, and use it to generate new data in HTML format to send to the browser.
Technically, writing HTML for a browser is a form of programming - it’s a set of instructions that tell the browser how to display the data in the HTML. It’s not considered programming in a professional* sense, though, as HTML doesn’t get, send, change, or process data. Its purpose is as a format for data to be sent and read by something else (the browser).
*professional as in job titles that affect your salary
Fuck material UI. Forever.
Seconded. I’m a dude in my mid 30s and I love those movies
Fellow Vue enjoyer! I love Vue, it’s so friendly. Maintaining a complex React app feels like getting dragged behind a truck down a one way road.
(Did you like my two way data binding joke there?)
I hate that thing
That is literally what it is :D
Only if it’s one per extremity. Like running around on your middle fingers
If you want to talk weird, each leg on a horse is actually one really long finger.
I initially misread as “lecher” and was very confused.
Now it *looks like.
It really feels like a game of forced perspective, in a very literal sense. I think it was prior to Edwin Hubble that we thought certain fuzzy blobs in the sky were nebulae, until the type 1a supernova discovery tweaked our angle of view, the fuzzy blobs turned out to be distant galaxies in their own right, and suddenly the whole damn universe got deeper.
Space is a jerk. It’s my favorite. MOAR secrets, pls
It’s funny, I had to reread op’s comment a couple times before I realized (I think) that they aren’t making the usual argument against voting - I’m so conditioned to expect it because the usual centrist/progressive discourse is black and whited to “vote” vs “don’t vote.” We get it from the media, bad actors, wishy-washy liberal-liberals, and… (Sigh) leftists who don’t know any better.
“Vote, and” should be the message - vote and organize, vote and run for office, whatever. To your point, we need to at least keep a thumb on the gushing artery if we plan to survive.
Well done, well done. As a meat brain, this took me down a rabbit hole of new spacetime paradoxes.
proportional
Maybe they just don’t have the actual numbers you’d expect from their outsized presence in the discourse, when they’re not being protected, or facilitated, or actively promoted by engagement algorithms or the individuals who own the other platforms.
(I’m pretty sure this is the case, but I’m too lazy to get sources just this minute)
I used this for a bit as data collection to help me and my therapist to track my depression. There are a bunch of free CBT apps out there for they kind of thing too.
Frankly, I’d kill for the Dems to pour money and resources into down ballot races.
