Repokémon is an amazing name.

The answer has been “No” a few times and boy does that suck.

“No one has ever attempted something so convoluted/silly/impossible before. Guess we get to see if we’re actually programmers or not.”

I made sure answering, “Has someone figured this out already?” is a formal step in defining project scope at my company.

Donphan is legit, too.

This person couldn’t be bothered to search “Phanpy Mastodon” to learn more, literally everything is non-trivial to them. They probably have to remember to breathe.

In my experience, and in the experience of my coworkers/contemporaries, our formal education taught us how to program which is distinct from which language we program in. For instance, my Java dev friend learned to program in C++ because that’s what was being instructed. I was forced to learn ActionScript 2 and then was forced to migrate to ActionScript 3, because that’s what was being taught. The experience of programming something and iterating on it was far more valuable than knowing a language like C++ or ActionScript.

Languages come and go, some faster than others, and you’ll eventually get to a point where your personal preferences stop mattering as much as which language is best for the task at hand.

PHP is dead. Long live PHP.

Let me Google that for you.

Here’s the mod’s website.

Wow, decisions were made with those new fonts. 😬

Okay, so, FOSS.

If WordPress doesn’t want WP Engine doing what it’s doing, they need to change their license. It’s not “Free Open Source Software Until Something We Don’t Like Happens.”

FINALLY. BT+DD

Whatever they have to do to shoehorn Tawny Newsome and Jack Quaid into Starfleet Academy or SNW.

Amazon SES is dirt cheap, billed per-send, you just need to bring the Everything Else with something like Mailcoach or Sendy.

Isn’t that what mbin is?

Amazing.

Ah fuck! I mistook the piefed docs for the pixelfed docs.

I swear there was documentation there.

No, the utility is to remove bad users.

I think you’re conflating my two separate concerns. One’s automated vote manipulation. The other is targeted harassment.

Looks like it’s kinda hard to spin up a piefed bot. Not impossible, but it’s a bitch without an API.

If I have an insightful contributer who’s going out of their way and outside of their normal communities to be a dick to another user, maybe they’re not so insightful after all. Or they’ve got a great reason!

Either way, I want to be able to point to their behavior - without the extra step of having to de-anonymize their activity - and tell them to chill the fuck out or get the fuck out. Out means out. Totally and forever.
