A little detail in the latest #Kitten:

I find #NodeJS deprecation warnings hit the sweet spot between jarring enough to be annoying and not informative enough to be useful.

So, in Kitten, the first time you hit a deprecation warning, you get a message telling you there are deprecation warnings.

If you care, you can open the interactive shell and view the kitten.deprecationWarnings list, which will show you full details including the stack trace.

:kitten:💕

@thylacoleo Not sure how that’s relevant :) The problem is not lack of warnings. Node has warnings. It’s the layering.

(Deprecation warnings are normally verbose enough to be distracting and mess up the output of your CLI app but they don’t contain a stack trace so you don’t know where they came from and, if you want to see the stack trace, you have to restart Node with a flag. So that’s what this attempts to fix by layering interface with a friendly pointer to the full information.)

By attacking and undermining the ICC, Israel has proved again it is a state gone rogue

@Chris Two things can be bad at the same time. It’s not a contest to find the shittest ever.

@Chris I don’t much care who Israel’s genocide of the Palestinian people is convenient for. I would very much like to see it stop and for Israel to be held accountable.

I'm back to playing with #Blazor and #HTMX with the @egil Htmxor library. The Counter sample is nice and clear.

He has something exciting here for the #aspnetcore and #dotnet audience.

Check it out! https://github.com/egil/Htmxor

I gave Jira AI a try. So I typed this into AI to see what would happen. Was not disappointed. Well alright I was. Haven't found it give a useful or correct answer yet.

H5N1 virus in latest human case has mutated, officials say

The slight evolution in the virus is associated with ‘adaptation to mammalian hosts’, according to the Centre for Disease Control.

Experts think it likely that we will begin to see more human cases of H5N1 in dairy workers in the coming weeks and months, as surveillance efforts ramp-up across America.

“France’s President Emmanuel Macron said Tuesday that recognition of a Palestinian state was not a ‘taboo subject’ but that it should take place at a ‘useful moment’.

A useful moment… Like when, motherfucker? When they’re all dead? :0_goose:

🧵In December 2023, when I used my acceptance speech of Scots Singer of the Year to call for a ceasefire, I was later taken aside and chasitised by a representative of MG ALBA. He told me that someone in the audience was Jewish and that she took offence to my speech. That person was Muriel Gray.

@ionafyfe What sort of morally-vacuous person gets upset at a call for an end to the killing of innocent people?

(Yes, this is clearly a rhetorical question as we already have our answer.)

Thank you for speaking out.

I love how folks still think people farmers like Google have a trust problem.

In 2024!

They don’t have a trust problem.

They are untrustworthy.

And they’ve always been untrustworthy. It’s just that your friends happen to work there and your agency gets scraps of work from them sometimes and maybe they sponsor events you speak at that you’re even still questioning this. And, by doing so – still, even today – helping legitimise them.

With friends like these…

There’s a difference between being useful and being a usefool.

A usefool is someone who launders their legitimacy to benefit corporate interests for short-term gain. They do so even if, ultimately, it’s against their own interests and those of others in the longer term. (1/3)

aral, (edited )
@aral@mastodon.ar.al avatar

Oftentimes, the usefool doesn’t think the longer-term ramifications apply to them as they feel sheltered by their perceived privilege. However, not being among the predator class that own and run corporations, they mistake the scraps occasionally thrown to them as a sign that they’ll be protected from ever becoming prey themselves. Sadly, some find out the hard way that the only people not prey in a system run by predators are the predators themselves. (2/3)

aral,
@aral@mastodon.ar.al avatar

All this to say, don’t be a usefool.
