(Me, whispering: Maybe the reason PHP is everywhere and in everything is that ease of use, ease of modification and ease of deployment are actually good things and making easy, fun things safe is way, way more important to real world practices and uptake than trying to graft ease of use and fun onto guarantees of safety that computing has never been willing, much less able, to really guarantee anyway.)

Just thinking about how the big tech entrepreneurs of the 80s who went on to become some of the richest men in the world and both the face of and the justification of an immensely sexist industry culture to this day became entrepreneurs at a time when women were not allowed to have business loans without a male cosigner (until 1988, when I was 5).

Pros of having two feet:

Cons of having two feet:
-If you're a Republican, that's one more foot to shoot yourself in.

Electoralism got us 12 years of FDR, which permanently changed so many broken things for the better. To the extent that we’re all still benefiting directly from it nearly 100 years later.

@neatnik What CSS to add to let the button (font) size respect the font size in the settings?

I change the font size to 20px but the buttons are still as small as before.

@chockenberry …but what about every other iPhone that will now run the app? You can’t ‘only’ do Duo

I suggest you go read more about the Mathematical domain called Games Theory if you think casting one vote amongst millions once every 4 years in a Voting System Mathematically designed so that not all votes count the same, with the only information before casting the vote being what the people who can benefit from your choice say they will do (with no mechanism to enforce their promises), is anywhere near the same as an individual direct choice with guaranteed results between two actions whose possible outcomes the one making the choice knows upfront with absolute certainty.

There should be a special Falacy for pulling out the Trolley Problem for situations where it’s Mathematically not applicable.

@RolloTreadway no one does buddy.
No one does.

@Mrfunkedude I don't even know where I am.

It’s so beautiful 😍😍😍

You can feel the AI in everything as a dev because every app and service you use is randomly broken far more frequently. You know that it's because code reviews and QA got thrown into the trash because you've had those meetings too.

@That_One_Guy best reason I've ever read.

AI's business model is blackmail: you'd better pay us for tokens, because your attackers are.
