If you take such a broad definition of social media, then nearly the entire Internet becomes “social media” and the term loses its meaning, IMO.


I mean, social media should be banned for everyone, not just teenagers. It’s a great evil in the world today, and in a functional democracy that wasn’t braindead, we should ban them outright for the mass harm and destruction they have caused.
That being said, I fully understand that the motivations of countries for these kinds of bans have little to do with the harm of social media and are much more about surveillance.


Nah, microslop is a great name, especially because they throw tantrums about the name. It’s very descriptive of what they have become.


My brother works for a company acquired by Bain. They are every bit the vulture capitalists bleeding companies into lifeless husks.


Good, maybe people will use it less.


This argument doesn’t really hold up, honestly. That is all easily done with shell scripting, and shell scripts can be committed to source control and shared to other members of the team easily. This is what my team does for our common API needs. It even has ecosystem support in many places, such as popular openapi renderers providing curl command examples for routes automatically, being able to copy the exact request made by a web browser as a curl command from the network tab automatically, and so on.
I use curl for absolutely everything, including testing out my work for each and every ticket I work on. Been doing this for years now. It works great and has many, many advantages over property bullshit like Postman.


Wrong comment to rely to?


I don’t use Libre Office, but regardless, I give absolutely zero shits what other people think.


You can also revoke that consent, and HIPAA requires data to be able to be completely destroyed. no way they are compliant.
Seems crazy to only be realizing they’re evil now, but I guess it’s something at least.


I’ve never really understood it, tbh. I’ve always rounded to the nearest whole number. I don’t know why you would do anything but that. The whole “$6.99 is $6” thing makes absolutely no sense to me. I see that and immediately see $7, without even having to think about it really.
Not sure why, seems just like useful advice. It sounds like the author does contracting of some sort, so having tools to quickly orient around a new codebase makes a lot of sense.
