@sundogplanets was posting about this not too long ago, I’ll try find the thread a bit later
e: thread
rewatched all of DS9 over a while, its writing hits even harder in the current year
(apple shows but that can be worked around:) invasion, slow horses, shrinking
haven’t been watching a lot of series tho so limited bucket recommendation
rubber duck debugging with a cost multiplier magnitude coming in at a couple of zeroes tail end of the figure
and worse results
so a couple months ago it was noted that mattermost’s website had gone very problematic, extreme emphasis on pitching to mil/int with very little indicating its foss roots/nature
and now it seems they’re going for rent extraction even on the self-hosted
holy discontiguous interscene blending, watman
there are so many parts that people in the skeet[0] replies have already pointed at but the thing that someone just went "tune the smoother way up! just make sure it looks good!" and thought they were done with the assignment... amazing. really does a fantastic job of highlighting the same old problem of these things only managing short-duration outputs coherently!
10/10 would cringe again
0 - what's a blacksky skeet called? do they have their own term? I don't know how standalone blacksky operates and I refuse to learn any more about skeeterprotocol than I already know

I tried looking around a bit to see if I could find any info about contributors there, and for the most part none of them really seem to have much internet fingerprint at all. did find one person with a moderately extensive set of personal repo/project commits spanning back a few years, spanning long enough so as to find that they were doing a BSc/Hons/something circa 2018. which isn't concrete but does strongly hint at a current age of mid 20s to mid 30s. "get 'em while they're young and you can poison their brains early!" - the bayfucker mantra
current issue is likely the most recent bout scraper waves (based on it matching data myself and others have seen elsewhere); suggestions have been made, so hopefully soon(tm) changes
(don’t mean to speak on @self’s behalf ito plans, mind. that’s for them to do :D)
dr seuss - green eggs & ham
Eternal September has many seasons
(and I don’t even really like the goddamned reference, mind you. but it’s succinct for something like this)
could I, like, not do that? would suit my needs better. kthx
