Looks cool, but does not appear to be FOSS, please correct me if I'm wrong.

That all makes sense.

That all makes a lot of sense. I really only ever got remotely competent with Python, and the one university course I did in c was rough. I passed it, but felt like I barely understood what I was doing the whole time.

I can understand how ease of writing and general community mindshare can be the most important factors.

For those of us who have never used Rust, and mostly just heard good things... why is Rust bad for a web app and UI? I've heard it's safer from memory vulnerabilities, and easier to code than most low-level languages, and much faster than high-level languages.

I chose Lemmy because it's written in Rust, and kbin is written in PHP.

But putting a cone on its hood should be a crime.

What a wild take. "Ah yes, we should be protecting capital at all costs."

A traffic cone is not damaging the property, or hurting anyone. It just damages their bottom line a little bit.

It's not even like the car is personal property, someone's only mode of transportation. And if it were, it wouldn't matter, because a human can just remove a cone.

I find it hilarious and unhinged that people will genuinely suggest that something as minor as placing a traffic cone on the hood of a robotaxi should be criminalized.

Aha yes, the mythical "Free Market" Capitalism, my favourite unicorn. The stories of it sound beautiful, if at times brutal and uncaring, and people claim to have seen it... Alas it's never been observed in human history.

Such a shame.

I cannot recommend this, and the rest of Innuendo Studios' videos enough.

If you've got an afternoon to kill, this playlist (same creator) was truly perception changing for me. I have a brand new lens to understand politics though because of Ian Danskin, and I cannot overstate how much I value this work.

And that problem is...?

I was about to post a snarky comment about how you should link to Cory's own blog pluralistic.net instead of medium but it seems this article isn't on pluralistic (yet?)

Week later edit: it got posted to pluralistic finally.
