Is it? It’s on you to express your ideas in a coherent way.

I want Medicare For All and you think I could be a Trump supporter? You’re not as clever as you think, we are nothing alike.

I prefer she show support for things she would pass if congress were willing. It doesn’t have to be a promise.

I mean, at least she used to, before she started hanging out with Biden and dropped Medicare For All. Anyway, won’t destroy democracy.

It’s not misleading if I provide a date in the body, one is provided in the article/blog and the candidate totally said all of that. I’m not allowed to change the title, so how am I otherwise supposed to compensate for a lack of reading comprehension?

My preconceived notion is that people should fight for the things they believe in and not just shift their beliefs because the money said so. Strange, I know.

That’s the headline from the article and I’m not allowed to change it. I ended up having to copy paste it as the automatic import did not work, so I suppose the title tag could be different. I can’t quite tell on my phone.

I’m not allowed to post things from the candidate’s own blog. I’m not allowed to post articles from 2019, but what about this?

Her reversal is not ok and we should be allowed to discuss it.

Yes, but sometimes it’s nice to have someone else make it, and to hang out somewhere that’s not my home office.

My local coffee scene is basically different versions of Dunkin Donuts, even the indie places have old coffee with chemical flavors. There is one place that serves a tasty espresso shot but it has inconsistent hours and is a 20 minute drive. Starbucks is closer and the app is super convenient.

We don’t all live in big cities with lots of options and Starbucks fills the void.

Maybe USB, but I’d certainly not want to end up having to re-pair my Bluetooth mid turn.

I don’t think he’s wrong on this, but he’s still Cornel West.

Sure, but all of those things could have been done by extending the existing protocol.

Also, fwiw, it has had media sends, presence and support for encryption for a very long time. The rest could be added. All of those things could have very well been an IRC client with a couple of extra features and a server upgrade to queue messages.

And those developers get told what to do. The wheel also gets reinvented by PMs and entrepreneurs who think they can do it better. Sounds like someone is salty about their software maintenance job.

I suppose that applies more to XMPP, but not everything has to be a business, and you don’t have to be an ass about it.

fwiw, XMPP/Slack/Discord/etc basically solve the same problem that IRC already solved. Software Engineers just reinvent the wheel again and again as everyone loves a green field.

That said, Meta cannot be trusted. They’re going to do a year or two of embrace and extend, pretending to be good citizens. Then they will invent some crisis that causes them to want to de-federate, likely that content on other servers is not moderated to their standards or that convoluted features of their extended protocol are not being met. This take seems pretty spot on to me.

It is now but the older formats used to be more like an executable byte code. Efficient but insecure.

Right, I don’t need a pickup truck, but I do need a trunk to put my groceries in to feed my entire family. I also need to do it quickly. They said 5 miles, that’s a long way.

Also people who have places to go, things to carry or don’t live in places friendly to bikes. Maybe even people who think writing things in all caps is lazy. Not everything is caused by the conservative boogieman. Both nuance and effective communication are important.
