Back to writing JS/TS after a project in Rust.

Writing in Rust was like completing the jigsaw puzzle. Pieces fit together, snap satisfyingly, and once it fits it's generally the desired result.

Writing JS is more like this child's toy with differently shaped holes and differently shaped pieces. Except my hole is star-shaped, and the piece is a piece of shit.

@estebanm "I can pretty much guarantee no one will ever send me code if I host on my own server"

Anecdotal: people have sent me git patches over email because they didn't want to sign up to github :)

Life finds a way, give it a try. Contributors gonna contribute.

Honest question: What the fuck is the USA and how come they keep being called a democracy?

Texas closes hundreds of polling sites, making it harder for minorities to vote

Guardian analysis finds that places where black and Latino population is growing by the largest numbers experienced the majority of closures and could benefit Republicans

@[email protected] Happens to me with servers: one of the reasons I postponed self-hosting my Mastodon is because I don't really want Yet Another Tech Stack on my VPS.

To be clear: none of these functions is written by us. It's all framework code. Good luck looking for that bug!

Naive me thought that disabling minification would enable me to see where my error comes from.

Fuck Angular and fuck web development. I was perfectly right to avoid it all this time.

@sushee Yeah, that's why I stopped going too. It's a great event, but year after year it seemed worse and worse. No use having a big event if there's so many people that you can't attend talks anymore :/

@SeijoDani Another takeaway from the linked video: the speaker, like many other people in poland, is oblivious to the difference between LGBT and WHO, and thinking that sexual education boils down to “gays want to teach my kid how to masturbate”. A lot of high ranking politicians have admitted to not even reading the WHO guidelines, but they kept spreading their bullshit nonetheless.

@SeijoDani It's worth noting that the yellow labels are a political happening rather than an official sign (as the author explains on https://lgbtfreezones.pl).

The laws are real though, and it's about as sad as it is amusing to see the rationale for their passing – local goverments not even knowing what "LGBT" means: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cF_fQuoGq68 (Attempt at the video is “erm, lesbian-gays, bio-something”)
