Whenever I’ve wondered about how something in Erlang works, I have never been disappointed in the answer. I almost always leave with the impression that the designers did the “right thing”. I suppose this is in contrast to Java, which does the pedantic thing, Perl, which does the kludgy thing, Ruby, which has two independent implementations of the wrong thing, and C, which doesn’t do anything.

  • Evan Miller

Still one of my favourite quotes ever.

Pixelfed pozwala administratorom na ustawienie komunikatu dla wpisów zawierających frazy typu *covid* z wybranym linkiem, więc admin może ustawić coś typu „Aby odnaleźć informacje o COVID-19, obejrzyj film Jerzego Zięby”. Cudowna funkcja.

Kolega był na pogrzebie osoby, która zmarła na COVID.
Ksiądz na mszy mówił, jaka to wielka strata i jaka straszna choroba ją dotknęła.

Po czym zaczął rzucać zaklęcia nad kielichem z "ciałem Chrystusa" i wkładał ludziom w kolejce, po kolei te andruty do buzi, gołymi dłońmi.
Heh.

FreeBoardGames.org is mainly powered by https://boardgame.io, an #opensource #typescript engine for turn-based #games. One of the main devs, Chris, created this beautiful diagram to present the order of internal API calls in boardgame.io (see https://github.com/boardgameio/boardgame.io/issues/808#issuecomment-945141162).

The game mechanics are described using the concepts of "phases" and "stages" wherein players whose "turn" it is are allowed to make certain "moves". Several event hooks are called for each move and each stage change.

It's not that hard to implement your own game: Join us on https://github.com/freeboardgames/FreeBoardGames.org

I hate macOS part 2137: keyboard layouts

- if you use a Dvorak and you're not just English-speaking, fuck you, you have to port your language's accents yourself to your custom keyboard layout

- your own keyboard layouts are in user space and not system space, so you can't use them in e.g. login screen

- if you use a keyboard layout from user space, the keyboard layout on your login screen sometimes randomly fallbacks to U.S.

- sometimes the login screen UI bugs and it says you use U.S. layout even though your keystrokes are a different layout

- there's no way to tell these 2 bugs apart

Tak właściwie to nie musi być polska. Ktoś coś rekomendacje? Właśnie odkryłem listę featured instances i próbuję ogarnąć czy któraś z nich by mi przypasowała.

Mamy jakąś polską instancję Pleromy na której można się rejestrować i na której nie wieje rakiem? Bardzo lubię moją instancję Mastodona ale chyba jeszcze bardziej lubię ficzery Pleromy.

sexual harassment, China 

So apparently a Chinese tennis player named Peng Shuai has published a post wherein she claimed to be sexually molested by the Chinese vice- prime minister and then promptly disappeared, as the Chinese who anger the party usually do. Can’t wait for what mental gymnastics tankies will come up with this time to defend their totally not absolutely dystopian promised land.
