I still think it’s crazy that the same guy who created Wikipedia also founded Fandom, and I believe is still involved. Considering what Wikipedia is and its utility, it almost seems like an incompatible ideology to have anything to do with both at the same time. I guess he’s got to make money somehow…

Meanwhile, Xbox Series S/X:

I’ve been following this saga since the headlines were prefixed with “Teen that created the Elon private jet tracker…”. I wouldn’t be surprised to find out he’s now been married 50 years and long-retired. I’ve lost track of time.

So…does this mean the cage match is still on?

It’s just a bummer that most tech tutorials are on there…wish we were back in the early 00s when alternatives to Youtube were still viable.

That sounds awful lol. I’m in university right now and have neglected work on any projects. I finally found something of a passion in retro game reverse engineering a few months ago and have obsessed over it. It’s only one game I’m reversing though so it’s likely to take me years and years before I can release anything resembling something playable.

You’ve now scared me into maybe working on other things too…I wonder if related projects count? A website for the project, developer tools, documentation, etc.

Last year me: I don’t trust Reddit, that’s why I use old.Reddit.

They never should have been allowed to buy it in the first place.

Google’s infamous graveyard makes it seem like they’re just a bored university student that can’t ever finish its side projects.

This is hilarious. I hope their code is literally something like

if (user.pref == hate("andrew tate") 
{ 
    user.is = "communist";
}

I wouldn’t even be mad.

Thanks for this, absolutely helpful information.

I use Github Desktop but am looking to start moving toward CLI soon for this reason; though to be honest, I only know it’s not good practice and don’t know the reason why. What kind of issues can happen in a team environment using it?

Mine seems to be defending the idea, so I’m looking to move soon just not sure where anymore or when. It’s frustrating because it’s hard to find any actual positions he actually has on this topic when his timeline is just endless boosts giving people props for defending this. indieweb.social if anyone is curious.
