lmao I guess so huh? I don’t know man. I appreciate just having a few simple subs and posting to them though. I think thats what I was really getting at. I got the news article from google news and thought Id share it.

🌶️🥵Many people consume Facebook meta company’s tech stack wholesale, don’t know how to actually traditionally program their way out of a paper bag, and web dev and devops caused a massive layoff (250k people) at the end of 2022, start of 2023 because it was all vaporware. They consume the same software in droves if the other guy uses it.
There is an entire subculture around it that is just a bunch of medium.com writers, YouTubers and twitter handles just trying to get the clicks for their ad money. Some of these guys have never written valid software or done anything noteworthy. If you meet them head on you’d find they have enormous egos and can’t find a counter argument when presented with reason.
I’ll even add on that there are many programmers who don’t know how to code outside a web app.
Why is something like [react, graphql, react ssr, devops, tailwind, unit tests, containers] vaporware?
You know the stuff I don’t hear about?
No. They’ll just name an entire lineup of the worlds biggest computers after your daughter.
Sorry, I couldn’t find a better sub. It’s like misc news I guess? So I just posted it up hoping to get some decent chatter going in the comments.
That’s hot. I see the clowns have blown in for the quadrennial clown show.
Gaming. It used to be an MMO for like $15 a month. Now it’s a new game for $70, the game has DLC for $20-$30 or skins or some battle pass.
You’re about to make a lot of enemies 😂
Last time someone posted this stupid fucking article up on a different tech lemmy I got into it with some single brain cells morons.
It’s open source tech. You could fork the entire thing if you didn’t like the CEO. Who cares.
I don’t have access to that data. And I don’t won’t to be misconstrued as promoting Elon or his activities (not that you’re doing that but I see the downvotes).
I’m just explaining what I think he’s doing. It’s what I’d pitch personally if I noticed red voters trend and visibly meme anti EV and I had obligations to shareholders I had to keep.
People are better off buying EV anyways. ICE vehicles are disgusting. I think people just like to assign large structures like businesses and folks like Elon to their political idealogies. Businesses and governments have to be larger than that because they need to serve people at the end of the day with either product or policy.
Keep your friends close.
Keep your enemies closer. Where do you think GOP Republicans live? Texas. What vehicles do they drive? Gas/diesel.
Call him everything he is. But he is a fantastic businessman for going to the place of most resistance and turning his worst demographic to his biggest group of followers.
I’m a fan of looking up articles information especially in regards to far left media. Far right usually is pretty easy to tell it’s fake because it’s so outlandish and off the cuff.
I looked into some of the guys mentioned in this article to confirm if they’re far right or if they’re actually just some old guy bitching about the way things used to be and going a little too far… No. It was like hardcore racists making insane remarks online. Some of them I couldn’t find but look it up. One of them has a website. Insanity.
Good article OP.
I’ll generalize and say there are many my age in their 20s that watch things like TikTok and shorts that are conditioned for the fastest intake of media. This means ignoring the written word outside of texts.
Even myself, if I see a wall of text in an article, I know to skip the fluffer ad-reads down to paragraph three, then skim. To be fair most articles could be wrapped up to maybe two paragraphs but get extended for ad spots. Outside the context of reading articles on say lemmy, especially online, there is a largely missed hear mean not what I’m saying operating in good faith that often gets missed online. For example if someone posts an article about how smoking kills you, and I post a comment that “yes but its a creature comfort” I am not refuting it kills you - I’m merely suggesting that its a rough world and that people have vices to cope.
Nuance and assumption that we’re acknowledging it is often lost on people.
I’m so green to it I can’t comment. What have you seen that’s a turn off?
I see a whole lot of meme coiners over there so far lol.
Maybe you don’t really want an account one one server but rather the whole experience. Seems good nuff for that.
Are those the super communists that are like fuck any place that’s not Russia and China? Lol
If so I guess I feel the pain but I just give em the block
Things are fine man. There’s just a lot of de federation lately which I don’t think is exactly right.
“I archived them all Padme. They’re gone…every single one of them. And not just the minor tickets.”
When feds come a knockin’? Fuck yeah it does mean you’re responsible for them, yeah man. Lmao. We just had our server admin purge some pervert agenda pusher. Because first off thats fucked up and next it could have the server seized.
Some dusty law enforcement won’t care if its just one bad apple. Especially if they get whiff that its a “community”.
I think people forget that decentralized doesn’t mean anonymous, and it also doesn’t mean that server admins and servers aren’t beholden to local laws
I think it’s especially the money and LGBTQ+ and non sexual norms that are driving people to the right. I notice when I talk to a lot of younger guys theyre tired of hearing about it.
Because it’s pushed on so much of their TV shows and things they like that they side with political candidates that are conservative at a young age and they further grow into it. These are conservative candidates with lots of money usually.
I hate to say it but it was universally cool to defend LGBT people when the media and TV shows didn’t push it. Because you were defending an oppressed person. Now it more so feels like it’s popular which means it’s no longer an obscure thing, the anti culture is the new trend.
I want to disclaim that I don’t agree with any of this other than to say this is my observation of the behavior. I play rainbow six ranked on Xbox and use the looking for group party finder with a buddy of mine. We group up and encounter a lot of guys in the army and Marines, a lot of teenagers and this is cumulatively the culture I’ve heard. Same thing on like world of warcraft classic and using discord to raid but those guys run older typically.
