It’s 2024 and I still don’t get why one would want to use Tailwind over CSS. I feel its main selling point is that you don’t need to write your own CSS, which doesn’t appeal to me. What’s your opinion tech folks? Am I missing something?

Arne BrasseurCurious if we'll see more headlines like this one, although I doubt many will be so honest.
But after a year+ of C-levels and investors egging each other on to do bigger mass layoffs than the last guy maybe the pendulum is starting to swing back.

We are looking for hosting companies/spaces for our meetup for March (7th) and onward! We need space for ~50 people preferably inside/around the "ring" in Berlin.

Advertising a product as powered by AI without saying what for will soon be perceived as synonym of cheap crap. As in “we could have done this properly, instead we used AI: for you it’s crap, but it costs us a fraction!”
thermonuclear small claimsFrom 2015 to 2022, I spent hundreds of hours on Duolingo, translating articles, answering language questions on the forums, and helping to improve the smaller courses by reporting mistakes.
There are thousands of volunteers who donated their labour to Duo: the course creators who wrote their courses, the volunteers who created grammar guides (some smaller languages had an entire second course in the forums), the wiki contributors, the native speakers who answered questions in the sentence discussions.
All of their work made Duolingo the powerhouse it is today. Duo was built by a community who believed in its original mission: language learning should be free and accessible.
Bit by bit all of our work was hidden from us as Duolingo became a publicly-traded company. And now that work is being fed into their AI as training data.
Well, I've learned the true lesson of Duolingo: never give a corporation your labour for free. Don't ever trust them, no matter what they say. Eventually greed will consume any good intentions.
It's RUG::B week!

moonglumIf you think “Musk has turned evil, but he used to be great” listen to @parismarx’s four part series about him. You’ll learn that he has never been a hero, but always was more a comic-book-level villain.
We're meeting in about 3 hours! Get there early to hang out and snatch some food while it lasts!
See you there!
