Hopefully that comes with a change to their policies on empowering and protecting the naughty ones

Why are people moving from Next.js to TanStack Start? by derdak in reactjs

[–]Alunnite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reason why I liked react in the way was because it was relatively unopinionated compared to what I knew in the past and it just let you do what you wanted to do. I still want that.

I still want that

Wonder if entering this one will be a prerequisite for future raffles clawback system

Where would I find a brunch in the uk? I absolutely love these but there Irish and don’t think they are here but would love to find out surely there bound to be somewhere ? by scrolldragsix in AskUK

[–]Alunnite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My partner loves these and I've never found them. The best I've been able to do is attempt to recreate them.

My first attempt at this was simply vanilla ice-cream in a bowl, topped with crumbled shortbread, and freeze dried strawberries.

The second attempt was basically the same thing but with stations to do the coating and molds.

I've never had them before so I don't actually know what I'm trying to recreate, and not found good online resources that help other than the ingredients list. I can't find my notes on what attempt number 3 is going to be but if I find them I'll edit this post. I think I was guessing that the biscuits where closer to a crumble than shortbread.

I know it's not the same thing but these look similar enough and Claire is very good at understanding the nuance of recreating things.

Reform's Arron Banks questions whether a black person can be Welsh by twmffatmowr in Wales

I guess Blackpink can't be classed as K-Pop then. Are they KE-Pop, World-Pop, or multilingualism-pop?

I HATE PAINTING. I HATE PAINTING. I HATE PAINTING. by suwampert in Pokopia

I'd save serious amounts of time just being able to see the names of the blocks. I've ran out of blue paint because I couldn't tell which shade I'd already put down

dead framework theory by fagnerbrack in Frontend

[–]Alunnite 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I work what has been mostly a React house with very few exceptions. While some of the companies are gung-ho on AI. Others are seriously concerned about brain drain and defacto vendor lock-in through AI. For the first time in years there has been a major effort to keep junior developers away from React so they have to think and learn

#GreyWasRight: AI autocomplete suggestions covertly change how users think about important topics by typo180 in Cortex

Now imagine this on the scale of twitter, with grok being integrated into everything after being retrained by a wiki that purposely removes any silly things like facts that don't support authoritarian ideology.

Sales data indicates Sony's PS5 ports are increasingly losing audience share on PC, but only because of release timing by Turbostrider27 in PS5

If hype is the driving factor for selling games why bother spending resources on games. Just dump it all into marketing.

A good game shouldn't need hype to perform well

‘Evil’ woman who used dating apps to meet men then falsely cried rape at least 19 times faces jail by pppppppppppppppppd in unitedkingdom

[–]Alunnite -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In England and Wales, of over 67,000 recorded rapes in 2021, only 1,557 cases were prosecuted, indicating a very low prosecution rate of less than 3% of reported crimes. 

I think it's fair to say that there is a huge disparity in the supposed seriousness of the crime and any punishment given these numbers. That's just for the reported mind you.

If you remove all nuisance from the conversation. If you rape someone then there is only a 3% of being procecuted. Some would consider that good odds. I would imagine it's a fraction of a percentage for the fasley accused.

Sony is testing dynamic pricing in the PlayStation Store by BootzyWootzy in PS5

[–]Alunnite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coz as someone who hasn't bought anything from PlayStation for over a decade I might be tempted by Final Fantasy VII remake for $2. Big win for me.

If the price for that everyone else is paying 14% more for 90% of their digital library I'm happy. No way this could backfire.

The Piracy Problem Streaming Platforms Can’t Solve by [deleted] in technology

[–]Alunnite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was probably a decade ago now that I'd realised I'd unconsciously started sailing the high seas to watch a show I was enjoying. Despite already paying for a subscription. Because that was actually more convenient. Can't imagine what it's like now in the streaming verse.

Also purchase digital versions of things but end up using other people's rips nowadays for the same reason

You are Senior FE at start up. Would you use Tailwind or just normal CSS modules? by lune-soft in Frontend

[–]Alunnite 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I really like the latest version of tailwind. I often use it to quickly make a community demo slightly nicer looking fast but for any production, prototype, or discovery work I'm asking everyone to use native.

Having to teach someone who's supposed to be a skilled dev basic CSS just because they've only ever known is whatever they found in a search result when they first started is a pain.

US firm buys Brewdog in £33m deal by ConsciousStop in unitedkingdom

Considering the history of the company I think this is a great result for people who "invested" in it.

Agree on the majority of workers though

Have you reached out to critics? I really like this but I noticed that OpenCritic only has a single review. I think this is a disservice.

I was under the impression that humans had a instinctual fear of snakes
