​> Folk Tech is a movement among people who want to develop apps for their community without depending on big tech companies and a community of developers making decentralized, p2p, open source, open standard-based tech

Featuring an interview with @mauve!

"Let us be the repository of your passkeys" and "We may terminate your account at any time and permanently refuse to communicate with you" ... seems like a bad combination?

The global town square means hearing lots of random yelling, I prefer small burrows you dig down into to find some creatures rambling about their niche interests,

Yeah the magnesium supplements are defs making my dreams weirder. OR at least I'm remembering more of the weird dreams.

This is not limited to devs, either; infosec has the same issue - and has had, for years.

This shit is why I keep pushing for unionization; management is fundamentally incapable of understanding this systemic issue.

Something in the MBA mindset removes the ability to comprehend systemic workforce logistics; they end up assuming "someone else" will do the training.

That's gone now.

Your company will need to learn to invest in juniors to teach them how to be seniors, or you will not have any more seniors, period.

I hate when machines think they know better than me.

web apps piss me off when they break because it's always due to the devs being too clever and trying to implement things in JS that work fine using the built in features. E.g. modals and forms.

To be totally for real I blame designers trying to make every generic web app look like a grad project and hijacking scroll functionality instead of just making it work.

Getting back into Limmy's Show. Love his sense of humor.

People talk a lot about "inbox zero." I am far more gratified by achieving laundry hamper zero.
