to focus on the fact that to be ‘feminist’ in any authentic sense of the term is to want for all people, female and male, liberation from sexist role patterns, domination, and oppression.

That's the dumbed definition of a word I've seen in quite a while. How about:

"advocating women's rights on the basis of the equality of the sexes."

They may do it by setting fire to a Theatre just to try to kill a single person, like a terrorist group, but at least this definition fits.

The whole "Feminism is for both sexes" has always been bullshit. You know it, I know it, everyone knows it.

but you actually are following a set of expectations and thoughts and even language that feedback loops on itself in a never ending reinforcement loop.

Isn't that culture in general? Not saying it doesn't apply to "the patriarchy", but this definition is a bit too wide, IMO.

that’s patriarchys fault for instilling into men on a deep cultural level that they need to make money to “provide”

Maybe that's the case because it's been the case since bartering started about 100,000 years ago... You'd rather your daughter marry a guy with a lot of stuff, rather than the guy with little stuff. If you think you can "just" change such an ancient system by introducing Feminism, then oh boy, are we even more fucked than I thought...

The only real issue is that Capitalism in the US has gone hogwild and concentrated most wealth down to 3 people. Europe is somewhat doing fine in that regard. Don't we have superrich people? Yeah, sure, but our bottom line is a LOT healthier. Not as healthy as I wish it to be, but fine-ish for now.

Bro that is Feudalism and Tribalism as well. You'd rather marry your daughter off to a rich man, than a poor one. That's nothing new to Capitalism. Except women now have the choice to do that themselves.

As an outsider: "Feminism for men". It currently exists as a counter to Men's Rights, which was a movement deemed "too problematic" by the Feminists. Whether it is too problematic is something I'll leave up to the reader. I for one think they're just really good at trolling (and sometimes they were assholes).

NPM

Nginx-Proxy-Manager. Got it.

I didn't read the parent comment well enough and was wondering what the Node Package Manager had to do with anything 😂

vscode with the built-in Emmet support.

Emmet isn't intimidating, unless you don't know CSS, in which case it is extremely intimidating.

a+b:
<a href=""></a><b></b>

a>b:
<a href=""><b></b></a>

a*2:
<a href=""></a><a href=""></a>

div.yeet:
<div class="yeet"></div>

A combination:
a>b+i*2.dollah:
<a href=""><b></b><i class="dollah"></i><i class="dollah"></i></a>

That's 99% of what you need to know to get started with Emmet.

Anyway, I used to write 100% hand-written HTML, but switched to using Hugo because: Go's built-in Templating language I knew from working with K8S, build-times are sub-second, and I can write a page in either Markdown or HTML, whichever I need (or even mix in some HTML in the Markdown!)

Because of hugo I don't need to mess around with repeating parts (like the nav menu).

Only downsides:

  • it strips the comments, which I would've loved to leave in for people to read
  • the formatting is my favorite, so I format with prettier before committing

I use git submodules to have the public/ folder be my Github Pages host repo, so I can just muck about locally, while I do a rebuild (which changes the files in the submodule). Only after a commit, I'll effectively publish the website.

Check out the website (mostly for the HTML - the articles are... meh): https://Thaumatorium.com (no trackers, so no Cookiewall nonsense either :D)

"Stuff" should be translated as "tool", IMO.

I'm late to the party, but I've categorized them by year. If I feel nostalgic, I just browse the top of the list.

BlueSky actually is federated, AFAIK: https://docs.bsky.app/docs/advanced-guides/federation-architecture

It does use its own protocol (AT instead of ActivityPub)

Can I slap a decorator on a Bash function? I love my @retry(...) (via tenacity, even if it's a bit wordy).

 

Ladybird, the browser from SerentityOS, now has a non-profit behind it! The guy in the video is not Andreas, but Chris Wanstrath (former CEO from Github), and he's pumping some financial backing into this non-profit.

I for one am happy we're getting an alternative to the Chrome/Firefox duality we're stuck with.
