airtonix··on Kaspersky is declared a US national security threat and is banned by the FCC
They didn't claim that this happens because of government interference... -_-

It's also not a theory.

airtonix··on React v18.0
I think no-one cares anymore... especially now that mobx-keystone exists.
airtonix··on ACCC takes action against Meta over scam celebrity crypto ads on Facebook
> But yet I'm left wondering why I never see big brands on Facebook in AU!

> FWIW I do advise my clients to critically consider FB or Google Ads due to the levels of click fraud.

Looks like you answered your own question! :)

pink page... elite attitude.

airtonix··on Ask HN: Team fun event ideas during WFH?
lol nope. not even once.
airtonix··on Mmhmm
except that in order to control your own data with bitwarden across many devices you need to spin up your own server.

Should checkout Enpass. - Has google drive/dropbox/webdave sync connectors. - runs on android/ios/mac/linux/windows

airtonix··on Reusable development containers with Docker Compose and Dip
People usually need wait-for-it because of terrible design decisions around their "initial data" and "authorative immutable data" made to beat imaginary competitors to market.
airtonix··on Twitter and Facebook's action over Joe Biden article reignites bias claims
again. wrong.
airtonix··on Twitter and Facebook's action over Joe Biden article reignites bias claims
you're wrong.

How do you imagine such an educated population occurs when you conflat Freedom of Thought with Freedom of Speech?

If you don't like certain ideas being distributed then who made you the boss of ideas?

Without a free exchange of ideas, you can not have a educated population, you only get programmed automotons.

airtonix··on Twitter and Facebook's action over Joe Biden article reignites bias claims
speech is communication.

communication is between two or more people.

You seem to be misguided as to what Free Speech means.

airtonix··on The Wrong Abstraction (2016)
yep.

Causes of this I've seen:

- sunk cost fallacy

- not spending enough time to understand the codes behaviour (and its side effects)

- code being written so it becomes hard to understand its behaviour and any side effects.

- trying to "win the PR game" by avoiding refactoring

- giving up on refactoring because thinking is too hard

airtonix··on Lemmy, an open-source federated Reddit alternative, gets funding for development
If you think The Spanish Inquisition is targeting “normal everyday views” I’m concerned about what sort of views you think those are. Do you think that not acknowledging God as our one true saviour and creator and those jewish/muslim/eastern-orthodox/atheist organizations hold “everyday normal views”? That’s what the Spanish Inquisition targets?

if you think you can be the arbitar of moral discussion without corruption, you are sorely mistaken. or you take us all for fools.

And here is where the SpeakWrite machine was given authority to rewrite history in order to satisfy "The Grinning Fox" as Malcom X puts it.

If you don't want to talk to those people, then don't. But to stand there and claim to speak for all of us and claim you are the authority on what topics are authorised for discussion is such an disgusting level of narcisistic meglomania that needs to be stamped out.

You're just a Totalitarian, and you should be put on a podium along side your historial commrades (and their outcomes) for all to hear and see.

This shit has happened before, and many millions were silenced into the siberian wastelands for it.

airtonix··on I worked on Facebook's Trending team
The left never think they are biased.

If you are unable to see through the looking glass, then why would you ever come to the conclusion that you're biased?

airtonix··on I worked on Facebook's Trending team
Hah, it's a Guardian article trying to look unbiased by concern trolling us all about the same old shit.

Does anyone even take Guardian seriously except liberal left socialists living in a dream world?

airtonix··on Gow - A lightweight alternative to Cygwin
@statico cmder is definitely a great thing for windows, however it's fault buggy due to way it operates.

Overall the best long term option is to simply stop developing on windows and start using Linux, docker, mono, nodejs etc.

I did this 10 years ago, and the situation on windows still hasn't improved.

airtonix··on The male suicides: how social perfectionism kills
No, just no. You're asking people to act weak and unstable. You're promoting a path that leads to unconscious confidence in decisions you make.

Every decision is wrong, but it's your job as the one who has their shit together in the shit-storm to choose the least fucked up choice.

airtonix··on Node.js Tools for Visual Studio
windows not being a priority won't change, because windows as a deployment target is pretty much a joke.

I mean... desktop environment on your application server ... lol?

There's so much friction legality and culture wise to getting a windows server to spin up, get developers to use good practices, encourage automation and resusability...

airtonix··on Node.js Tools for Visual Studio
This is a trend amongst developers who rely on monolithic programs for development.

YOu should really just stop developing on windows and learn to embrace docker.

airtonix··on A website that deletes itself once indexed by Google
Solution is to use a mature web framework that already solves this. ie. Django.

> This site ran on IIS (anything)

There's your first problem.

airtonix··on Ewww, You Use PHP? [2010]
and yet python does all that without being ugly.
airtonix··on Ewww, You Use PHP? [2010]
hey, remember if you turn your nose up at shitty languages and platforms, you're somehow revealing something bad about yourself.

Not like the exemplary attitude of "awesome lets cut our wrists all day and open windows explorer to deploy"

airtonix··on Microsoft on GitHub
Codeplex needs to die... It was shit when it came into existence, it's still shit now.
airtonix··on LXQt – The next generation of the Lightweight Desktop Environment
Personally I feel that Gnome Shell is far more appealing than Windows (anything) or MacOsx.

I just showed a MacOSx user the alt-drag window resizing.... totally blew his mind, as in he couldn't understand why that wasn't a feature of MacOSx: "The Simple Operating System"

airtonix··on LXQt – The next generation of the Lightweight Desktop Environment
crippled, interesting.

Perhaps you'd like to explain further?

airtonix··on Classy: Cleaner class-based controllers for AngularJS
I would argue that if your controllers are getting that complicated, then you're doing it wrong.
airtonix··on GoDaddy ends support for Ruby as of 23/01/2014
I concur. Now that I use Ansible, it's been a long time since I touched anything Ruby.

My life is better for it too, I felt really agitated every time I had to touch Ruby code.
