If you want to block a possible future Meta instance from your instance, here is the domain to block:

threads.net

(and you might as well block instagram.com and meta.com and facebook.com too, in case they use subdomains from them)

@Graycot I appreciate the restraint needed to avoid making "hello" a java program running in a JVM.
The worst thing that ever happened in software engineering was when Kirk asked Scotty how long something would take and Scotty said thirty minutes and Kirk said you’ve got five and Scotty got it done in five and impressionable children watched this and grew up to become managers.
2022: what if you had to find an alternative to twitter

OH: “it’s called a commit because my code is a crime”
I made a mess of things at work and am still trying to clean everything up. I swear, this week has just been one mistake after another... And that's on top of being pushed into a role that I'm not confident or comfortable in, at least not yet.
I've got 99 problems and they're all caused by a lack of type safety.

As usual, ADHD Alien is spot on.
Love how this one is a real explanation on why and how it really works (or not) and not just relatable stuff.

#ADHD Paralysis : why does it happen?

@mo8it A replacement replication service for a piece of software I'm using. For whatever reason the current implementation uses only a single connection, and performs poorly over WAN as a result.

A vendor closed a ticket for a new feature but won't provide any details on how to use it, nor is there any evidence it was actually implemented. Their support team keeps pointing us to docs for something entirely different.

Guess I'm writing my own service to do what we need. Might be a good candidate for my first #rustlang project.
