I've never heard someone say that before. Why would you want one but not the other, if you don't mind my asking?

100% worth it.

Where I work, they don't really give a shit if you have to go to an appointment or whatever. You just let people know you're going to be out at such and such time and that's it. No micromanaging of time since we're all adults and know what our deadlines and deliverables are. It's a salaried position, though.

If I had no flexibility at all that would definitely be pretty miserable.

I mean, social media should be banned for everyone, not just teenagers. It's a great evil in the world today, and in a functional democracy that wasn't braindead, we should ban them outright for the mass harm and destruction they have caused.

That being said, I fully understand that the motivations of countries for these kinds of bans have little to do with the harm of social media and are much more about surveillance.

Good, maybe people will use it less.

Developing a FOSS project does not absolve you of any and all responsibility to not be shitty. In order for the system to work, everyone involved (developers and users alike) should be stewards of the commons.

He's murdered a bunch of Iranians, including schoolgirls. So it definitely fits.

As far as gods go, his god is himself, so that counts too, imo.

My brother works for a company acquired by Bain. They are every bit the vulture capitalists bleeding companies into lifeless husks.

Looks like a category theory book. And they're right: using A to notate the identity arrow is ridiculous.

Who are these mythical "real chiropractors" that you speak of?

It's pseudoscience, and always has been.

Not sure why, seems just like useful advice. It sounds like the author does contracting of some sort, so having tools to quickly orient around a new codebase makes a lot of sense.

I prefer real science, thanks. You know, the kind that gets published in scientific journals and peer-reviewed, where they actually try to provide controls for what they are measuring, rather than going "trust me bro, I tried it and it's a total game changer".

That is in no way related to what I said.

Nah, microslop is a great name, especially because they throw tantrums about the name. It's very descriptive of what they have become.

LLM slop is not welcome here.

No, I'm saying you should link to actual sources instead of whatever an LLM decided to barf out (which may or may not be rife with inaccuracies).

Posting garbage like that is both a recipe for spreading misinformation (and we have strong evidence that LLMs greatly increase the potency and spread of misinformation), as well as devolving intellectual discourse into users just tossing slop back and get forth at each other. It would be trivial to make an LLM say the opposite of what you claim. So why should one trust the text spewed out by your LLM vs the text spewed out by someone else's? Regardless if what you say is true, giving us the garbage from an LLM as "supporting evidence" completely undermines what you are trying to say.

Find real sources and link them. It raises the quality of discussion and makes the internet an ever so slightly better place.

Obviously not, because that's not possible.

Obviously don't have the full context, but rarely is it ever advisable to give third parties direct access to a database. There are many reasons for this, like, for example, the fact that doing so makes schema migrations practically impossible.

The git CLI. GUIs don't get anywhere near what it can do, and the CLI is scriptable and can easily interop with other programs.

I think you're using the word "framework" quite broadly here. Cloudflare and databases aren't "frameworks". The word is perhaps ill-defined, but generally it means something like "an opinionated library ecosystem in a programming language". React, Vue, and the like are Javascript "framework" libraries for making what are called Single Page Applications. They are hardly the only way to make websites, though, and some (including yours truly) believe them to much more trouble than they are worth for most purposes.

Laravel, Django, Ruby on Rails, etc. are all backend/server-side "framework" libraries for creating Multi-Page Applications, or in other words, the model for which the web was originally designed (that is, you get HTML and follow links embedded in that HTML to get to new pages).

At any rate, a "file system for a website" is quite vague. It really depends on what your goals are. You have to define what is you're trying to do and who it's for. It's not particularly difficult to spin up an sftp server to allow remote access to files if all you care about is remote copying, but I'm going to assume you mean a file server served over HTTP(S).

There's about a million tools out there for serving up static files, getting a directory listing, etc., and it really depends on your goals. It's fairly simple to configure nginx to serve up a directory with a very rudimentary index if you don't need anything fancy (nginx can do fancy too, ofc, just takes more work than what comes out of the box). I personally like Caddy over nginx these days, though. Caddy in particular requires very little configuration, honestly.

But yeah, without more information about what is is you're trying to accomplish, it's difficult to give specific recommendations.
