Because they design their own, yes. That’s how economy of scale works.

To benefit from it you either need to sell an absurd amount of stuff or buy from those who do.

Bit pricey but the Framework 16 is always a great option for the more tech inclined.

Doesn’t come with Linux by default but they support it very well and have people on staff for Linux support. You will have to install it yourself though

Yeah but I’m glad they’re not here.

I liked this stats but don’t like that I liked them. I shouldn’t feel so happy at number go up. Lemmy is way less adictive for me and I’m happy with it

Good question though

You can use wsl

Dahm been quite a bit since I’ve seen this one. Wonder what changed on my system?

I’d argue this is more like “I want to build a competitor to spotify so let’s decide between using mariaDB or writing an SQL compliant database from scratch”

In your example, a database is the end goal and you can either start with a premade or make your own.

Here, a social media platform is the end goal. Activitypub is a very important part of it but it’s not the entire piece.

If we replace the parts of your analogy with the original your example would parse out to “I want to make a competitor to lemmies ActivityPub integration, so let’s start with fedify” which is not the same as the article states.

Now, should you re-impliment a protocol yourself or use a generic library is the real question. Both have their benefits. With option A you have full code ownership and can wrap your solution around your end goal without the issue of dealing with the original to get needed changes accepted. You don’t have to worry about code not written by or understood by you. With option B, you get a more robust and almost certainly more accurate implementation. Along with, for free, better integration with any service using the same library. Very useful for a federated service when talking about cross platform.

Both have many more positives and negatives of course and each person should decide on their own how to proceed.

My opinion? I think it’s usually best to own anything which could feasibly be understood by a single dev. Even if each dev doesn’t. Anything larger shouldn’t be internal in my strong opinion unless very good, specific reasons apply that makes an external solution impossible or increadibly difficult. Most negatives of an external library also apply at that point with enough time.

That’s understandable. Sorry if I came off sour btw. I’m quite tired. You seem chill

You’re right about our leaders but partially wrong about it being too late. There will be massive destruction and horrible outcomes but damage can still be decreased. With massive effort fewer dead, fewer impovrished, easier to reverse. This is true at each point.

Horrifyingly though our leaders will do nothing while pretending when it gets bad there was nothing they could have done at this point. That it’s always been futile.

You may think me saying humanity can still do good work to lower damage is optimism but as a pessimist I understand that nothing will likely be done. Especially when most think it’s already too late to do anything.

Here’s a few I could suggest
Cap Chronicles - tg.blk
Love Being Used - tg.blk
Dora - Tierra Whack
Orion’s Belt - Kitty ray
One life, might live - Little Simz

Wait that entire thing is the open Wellington? Railroad spike type shit my friend

So how many story points do you estimate?

That’d be great I’d say

OK, I think the real solution is that I’m never using Gumroad again. Sad, as some really good dnd stuff was there

Sorry to hear that. I’ve had no issue with the debuggers available in neovim personally though. A bit hard to set up dap and dap ui but once it’s there it’s golden

Holy shit man I actually do that. My DND group suggested it as a joke and I thought it would be funny to try on can but found out very quick it’s fucking fantastic. I’m so glad to know it’s a thing elsewhere

OK the tortilla chips idea is wild. I’m going with that this time instead of flower

You are a king

OK not sure how that’ll help but I’ve got it in my pipe now. Or should I go with rolling papers?

I like cayenne but come in man, at a point you’re just serving a moist bowl of powdered cayenne
