Reply to what do y'all think of lemmy? (open source link aggregator, a-la reddit and postmill, but federated) by twovests

would rather not, author is a tankie that uses it for tankie site

it's not federated yet IIRC (and hasn't been for like 2 years?)

and there isn't really any concern about the hierarchical nature of what they're doing; tank site had a shit ton of bans early on

Reply to comment by bea in Why is JavaScript only used on websites and webapps? by twovests

I had a quote by Erik Naggum but then I remembered it's Alan Kay's 80th birthday, so I should celebrate by flaming using something he said.

[JavaScript] is another example of filling a tiny, short-term need, and then being a real problem in the longer term. Basically, a lot of the problems that computing has had in the last 25 years comes from systems where the designers were trying to fix some short-term thing and didn’t think about whether the idea would scale if it were adopted. There should be a half-life on software so old software just melts away over 10 or 15 years.

that was uploaded seperately some time ago, by some shitty publisher that also blocked it everywhere, and for some reason they took down the new upload of the album
