It's also just a huge fallacy. He's saying that people just choose to not write memory safe code, not that writing memory safe code in C/C++ is almost impossible. Just look at NASA's manual for writing safe C++ code. It's insanity. No one except them can write code that's safe and they've stripped out half the language to do so. No matter how hard you try, you're going to let memory bugs through with C/C++, while Rust and other memory safe languages have all but nullified a lot of that.

It doesn’t sound like you want a static site generator. You want a Squarespace alternative. One option I use is Ghost. You can host it yourself for free. But it’s not a static site. Static site means static. That means no backend, no forms, none of that. You won’t get a CMS, you won’t get drag and drop components. That’s not what static site generators do.

You ask them to add a license, you don’t suggest a license.

I am of no help here, but your post made me think of this. https://youtu.be/tbazGVrbN-g

You can write cross platform mobile (and desktop and even browser) apps with Kotlin.

Mercedes isn’t competing against cheap cars locally, so it has no incentive to block their import.

yeah as @Ategon said, that's quite strange, but I'm not sure we're in control of that. Would need to be raised as an issue. lemmy.world has also customized their install quite a bit so it could also be on their side.

that's so weird because I got an email inviting me to participate and I haven't ever been considered a 'prolific poster'. I'm only at 60k and 12 years. I had no clue I was invited until I looked in my spam folder.

I've been saying this for years. My site only has a few lines of javascript. the rest is pure html and css, and it's very simple. https://tylerthrailkill.com

Because no one ever uses those. Literally > and | are the only ones I’ve ever seen in over a decade and you will never need to worry about the differences between the two.

XML as a configuration language is terrible. Yaml gets the point across in an easily readable way, which is exactly the point. Same for JSON except JSON you can’t even use comments (you need json5 or one of the numerous other alternatives to get those).
