@katafrakt I had something similar at an old job, truly a pleasure to deal with. Bonus points if it goes 404 when no results are found.
@mattswift@mastodon.social @tomw I was about to comment the same thing, especially since it's typical for PHP devs to defend the most insane decisions it makes with all their might, but this time it's actually correct. These aren't decimal points, they're version part separators. 1.02.04 doesn't mean "version one and two-hundredths and four-idontevenknow", it means "version one, subversion two, subsubversion four", just stylised in a weird way, perhaps because the person making it wanted to reserve two spots per subversion to have the same width when going above 9.
It's like the day 04.02 just means "fourth day of the second month" (or the reverse if you're wrong) and not day four and two hundredths somehow.
@tk at least if you believe people who have no idea how it works.
@TechConnectify @DeShawnFranco we may not have xitter's filtering rules, but please don't let a vocal minority shape your opinion about the network.
@icedquinn with a short attention span both reading and writing seem easier than recording and listening. For me for sure at least.
I miss written tutorials. I hate how every tutorial is a YouTube now. I don’t want to watch 15 minutes and forget to pay attention for the second that has the detail that I am missing or it just doesn’t show. Even short tutorials are 3 minutes when it could have been a ten second read. I want to skim a page and go directly to the point. Has writing really become that hard to do?
@freemo makes sense, but it's not even readable and breaks my web UI :D Also this was supposed to be a reply to https://mas.to/@pkalbers/111502221591441892 but didn't work right for some reason. That might've been me clicking the wrong thing though, but check it out yourself.

@stux thicker walls might add to the feeling of solid confined space alike the IRL spaces it was based on, the thin walls seem less oppressive and somewhat fake. Just my 2 cents, this is cool.
@sanket143 god I love open source software unconstrained by corporate soullessness.
@codefolio @katafrakt the processes+threads honestly still sound like a major downgrade compared to actor models of things like Scala or the Erlang family (and it seems Ractors if they ever happen), where concurrency is intuitive to implement and a first-class element of the language, and all internal functionality is thread-safe (this part seems to not entirely be the case for Scala lol) and GIL-less by default.
Not enough to warrant abandoning Ruby like when it was single-threaded, mind you, but enough to make something like Elixir strongly preferred over it if you're choosing the technology to start with.
@katafrakt what's the current concurrency model of modern RoR?
