Awesome, I'm looking for frameworks like this, thanks for sharing.

Anything that involves deception, which unfortunately seems to be most of marketing.

I don't mind when people just try to get their product out there, just let it be known that it exists and does X thing differently or better. I hate when they mean to deceive. Something that is intended to deceive but isn't technically a lie is not really better than a lie, to me.

Rust, because I'm lazy and I want a compiler that helps me out. Performance is a pretty neat bonus.

Two days ago, I wouldn't have felt particularly strongly about this sentiment, but my last few comments yesterday had some interesting interpretations...

I use main because, although I never heard of anybody actually getting offended by master, it costs me nothing to use main instead. Also it looks prettier and seems to be the new convention ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If somebody asked you to bring hot dogs and tacos to a party, the host would probably not be just as fine with you bringing only tacos or only hot dogs.

My Canadian bank just charged me $45 CAD twice and only noticed me a day after the second charge. I didn't notice because I no longer use it. I wish the limit was $3...

I really like WEBP.

It supports transparency, animations, and compression, and seems to look really good even with very strong compression. It's a shame that, despite it coming out 13 years ago, it's still barely supported by so much software.

Co-pilot can write some small very simple functions for me, sometimes saving me the need to look at documentation. It will still often fail at those, in my experience, and will consistently fail at anything more complex.

It will get better, but currently it's only a small help.

Thanks for all the great work you guys are doing with this instance. This place feels nicer than Reddit.

Great to know this was a bug. It felt a tad immersion breaking for every origin character to be so interested all of a sudden.

I love both proprietary software and open source software, and personally I kinda like this warning.

How much of a concern it is for software's code to be proprietary, is probably personal opinion. For this reason, maybe yellow is a bit too much? I think making these errors grayscale might be a good middle ground.
