Curious if the #media misunderstanding the point of #mastodon will ever end? We’re 8-9 months since the beginning of the bigger migration waves and I’m still constantly seeing “will mastodon ever succeed? Why is mastodon failing?”
We’re watching the media, in real time, have zero idea how to evaluate something unrelated to capitalism. Have we lost all ability to measure something without a quarterly report?
I want to start to organize these and make an effort to refute. Using something like #MisunderstandingMastodon is way too long and sounds like trying to make fetch happen but I like it.
I regularly use and love #Typescript. I used to use #Python the most – it’s what I learned in and I am more interested in backends than frontends. I also am regularly using and really enjoying #Kotlin (so much better than #Java). But truly Typescript is bae.
#Julia is a joy to work with. Very much like Python but more powerful. If it had the library support Python or #JVM has I would probably prefer to use Julia for backends.
But Typescript really changed the game and now that’s probably my favorite language not just because of the language itself but because it has web dominance. Until I can write #WASM with Python or Kotlin or Rust, and I’m building #web applications, TS is my lingua franca.
#TacoTuesday recently was released from being copyrighted right? Glad this beverage company is immediately taking advantage. it’s kombucha but also a marg? Quite the combo… #Alcohol
Calckey, Elk, and Wefwef are 3 really amazing #PWAs. Renews my interest in developing with web tech for mobile. Who needs native when you can do this shit in Typescript
After seeing so much code and surrounding documentation written in English, it's kind of good running into Japanese documentation in the wild and just having to deal with it.
