Typical

A while ago something similar happened on Blahaj, where they defederated from lemmynsfw claiming it contained CSAM as well, because of… /c/adorableporn, which has nothing to do with anything under 18.

I wish there was more backlash for idiotic defederations

Also perhaps a way to have a ‘default instance blocklist’ as a defederation-light feature so users don’t have to create dozens of accounts until they find a host that doesn’t end up randomly defederating from the usual suspects like lemmynsfw and lemmygrad. They could just join any of them and find the issue in their account settings if they wish for an unfiltered lemmy experience.

Dude who gives a shit to know that

Hard sell. Calling people you know nothing about “bad developers” because they don’t like your tool on the other hand, that was cringe as hell and just made you look like you somehow tied your self-worth to php. “If my tool gets criticized; that means I’m being criticized!”

If you don’t give in to that, you start to see “Oh, that bug wouldn’t have happened if I’d been using [x]” and you become a better developer

When a woodworker cuts iself with a bandsaw, people who do what you do scream “He’s a bad woodworker!”

And while they’re screaming, we invented guardrails

Pointing out what sucks in a language isn’t tribalism, calling people “bad developers” when they don’t like your tool on the other hand, …

Good developers don’t get tribal about the tools they use

It makes them able to switch away from them for better ones

I use typescript now

They didn’t think about which order ternaries should compute in when they coded the php interpreter

I used php for 2 years and I hate on it it’s not just people who’ve never used it

You know that programmers of other languages don’t have to find excuses for their tool constantly, right?

They deprecated nested ternaries?
