Why would you use this instead of Matrix FFS? Closed source and centralized.

I’d argue that FPTP is the real barrier. It makes it a FACT that we can only have two parties.

investors are now pegging the social media platform’s value at $44 billion, the same amount Elon Musk purchased the site for in 2022, citing the value social that media platforms are now understood to hold in swaying elections, making corruption legal, and bringing the US to the brink of outright fascism.

Your history is glorious. Thanks for routinely being the only person making actual sense in the comment section. ✊🏽

Joy Ann Reid is considered progressive? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The news media is lurching FAR to the right and people are REALLLLLLL quiet about it.

Joy Ann Reid was one of the most vocal opponents of Bernie Sanders in 2016. She is the equivalent of JOE LIEBERMAN for news pundits.

I used to keep a list of repos to pull onto my NAS in case they someday went closed source. I use “mr” for it. It worked great. I had it on a systemd timer.

ABSTRACT This talk and workshop/jam will introduce you to PureScript, a strongly-typed, Haskell-inspired programming language that compiles to JavaScript. These sessions will focus on building a small game in incremental steps, from simple functions to a web-based app, giving you a chance to try out features and libraries along the way. You should leave the session with a grasp of PureScript fundamentals, and a self-sufficiency to tackle your own projects and experiments.

I stumbled onto this episode after fantasizing about just such a technology where we could take all of the positives of the Beam and bring them to the amazing OCamL compiler. This guy Leandro is incredibly clever and articulate. I loved his use of the word “free range” to describe a technology later in this podcast. A super interesting episode!

Leandro reminds me of myself (though I’m obviously not quite as bright), getting interested in bleeding edge, space age languages like Idris then dialing back the type astronautiness to more breathable air to achieve things in the real world with languages like OCamL. Enjoy! Hopefully some of you smart people can help push #RIOT forward. It seems like a great idea without peer in the tech world.

Appropriate levels of physical activity, sedentary behaviour and sleep (collectively termed movement behaviours) are essential for the healthy growth and development of preschool-aged children.

This was the impetus for creating the Canadian 24-Hour Movement Guidelines for the Early Years (birth to four years). Likewise, this is why the World Health Organization adopted the Canadian guidelines when creating the global guidelines on physical activity, sedentary behaviour and sleep for children under five years of age.

Considering the extensive benefits of movement behaviours, it is very alarming that a recent study found that only 14 per cent of preschoolers around the world are meeting movement behaviour guideline recommendations.

This is a short development update on our progress towards the first release candidate for GIMP 3.0. We recently reached the string freeze milestone. What this means is that there will be no more changes in user-facing text (like GUI labels and messages) so that translators can work on the final translations for the 3.0 release.
