Probably a few reasons for this. I’m not a ruby dev so take this with a grain of salt.
Ruby doesn’t have a lot to offer beyond languages like Python or Go without its companion web development framework Rails. Ruby on Rails was good for its time (~2012 -> 2015 era was peak), but there are more mature, stable, and widely adopted frameworks available in other languages. RoR touted speed to develop as a feature, but you can do things plenty fast with the aforementioned languages too. On the flip side, rails apps are notoriously slow to boot. I think this became a problem with cloud native infrastructure. For example, Kubernetes likes to spin up services very quickly, and can be painful to work with if that’s not an option (experienced this with Java apps too for that matter). As self hosting on bare metal went by the wayside, so too did interest in developing new apps on rails, imho.
Pretty interesting finding. Have to wonder if time functioned differently that close to the Big Bang.
JWST illuminating as always, but would love to see this confirmed with another telescope/methodology.
I think it’s more so that Rs don’t have any popular policy proposals whatsoever. Fuck up your kids’ access to education and healthcare? Strip you of every last dollar and funnel it all to the billionaire ruler class?
These are incredibly unpopular positions, so instead they galvanize support by strawmanning “the others” as some kind of threat which must be stopped.
Swapped in Memmy at the Apollo spot on my phone’s home screen, and not looking back! It’s been great so far.
Unfortunately there are a couple of very specific subs which have no equivalent on Lemmy and I have gone back for them once or twice. I’m considering leaving those communities behind. Although it sucks to have to do so, ultimately it feels like the right thing to do.
Well, they blocked his weak sauce attempt to forgive some of the debt, with a heavy dose of means testing to not forgive too much.
Biden has full authority through the 1965 Higher Education Act to wipe out all the student loan debt entirely. He could do that today. Of course he chooses not to / pretends he isn’t aware of this. What do you expect from Biden, who single-handedly brokered the deal in the 90s to make it impossible to declare bankruptcy due to student loan debt?
Wow this was a great read that really crystallized many things which have been on my mind lately.
On the dark edges of the early internet, hackers foresaw the enclosure of the public commons long before the likes of 6ix9ine, Snowden, and teenage Gen Z. These users developed an ethos that valued the radical freedom of a fully anonymous, hyperconnected zone where people could communicate unburdened by their physical bodies and government names.
People of internet. My people!
deeper and closer connections made between people even while rejecting the platform’s compulsion to “like and share.” In the internet era, true counterculture is difficult to see, and even harder to find—but that doesn’t mean it’s not there.
