Is social media truly social, or is it just a feedback loop of self validation? I am—yet what I am none cares or knows - John Clare

AI is not improving their services, they've just built more vendor lock-in so managers put up with the longer support cycles.

Do you need a million paths of OAuth? If you're making a game, you just need something to determine if your users are logged in. Steamworks will do most of this for you. Save the extra providers till after you've launched. You can always just do straight email / password till then.

You're already setup and working. Linux is Linux, Fedora has pretty new packaging, and you probably don't have to be on the bleeding edge. Learn Fedora. It's quite customizable.

I wouldn't. Get yourself a Macbook Pro and parallels (to run Windows). You'll be able to consolidate everything.

Probably not, People are going to have a google account ( via android / gmail ) or an iCloud account (any Apple device) So that's two providers. If you're making a FB game, they'll most probably already be authenticated, and you can use the session id.

Because it's based on Unix and behaves closer to Linux hosting, their apps will be running on. Windows usually is preferable if you're doing legacy .NET. else the above still applies.

Teach them to be their own algorithms. They need to know books exist in digital form and where to obtain them. YT, instead of watching brain rot, they need to know they can search for science and music and art.

Do not let the world steal your culture or your mind. Read books and embrace each others differences. Learn from each other. Stand up for mousey folks.

Reading Rainbow 🌈 taught us all to look at each other, not by color, but rather to see each other as fellow readers. To share a story and experience the wonders of literacy.

Perfect time to rename it, as it's not related to Java, and people have confused the two for decades. Use that money to support humanity or wildlife. #ecmascript #browserglue

Any time you lower the bar of entry to zero, you're going to get situations that are difficult to test. Vibe coding and no code. The best AI wouldn't give you the code, but rather mentor you in how to derive the solutions yourself. It would let you make 🍝 at first and have you own it.

I think it could be an awesome logic simulator for curious people. You power the lighted sections, and little sparks come out to work.

Python has become a destroyer of worlds. It's as bad as Javascript now. It's just more pleasant to work with as long as you have frozen dependencies.

A black cat, mouth open, bottom fangs bared in a remarkably silly way, looking like something out of a Ghibli film.
