Reading the "how we built it" part of the article about Wildebeest (blog.cloudflare.com/welcome-to…) causes my eyes to glaze over.
It's basically just list of 100 different cloud services with dumb names and might as well be written in an alien language.
As an "old guy" this stuff really bugs me. This entire "app" is built of remote procedure calls. Every example function is just a bunch of async/await to something else.
I look at this and see "FRAGILE FRAGILE FRAGILE" in large blinking red letters.

Ukraine belongs to the European family.
President Zelenskyy's visit to Brussels reaffirms Ukraine's stern determination to make this bond stronger than ever.
Today, the courage and bravery of the Ukrainian people in fighting for the respect of our shared values have echoed at the heart of Europe.
Our support is unwavering.
So far, we have mobilised €67bn, and more is coming. We will step up sanctions and ensure Russia is held accountable for its aggression.
Long live Europe! Слава Україні!

OMG.
1. Google has some bad summarization telling people that throwing batteries into the ocean is good.
2. News articles were written about this.
3. Bing's summarization interprets these articles as advice to ... throw batteries in the ocean!

I think it's really cool that Black American Sign Language is in some ways more conservative than the kind of #ASL you learn at Gallaudet University.
Other ASL varieties use a lot of handshapes influenced by English spelling. But black ASL has kept more of the original handshapes, because black #deaf schools didn't get hit so hard by the oralist reformers who made war on ASL.
You can see BASL in action at csdhh.org/black-asl
If you'd like to see how ASL has changed over time, here's an excerpt from "The Preservation of Sign Language", a historic speech given in 1913 by George W. Veditz, the president of the National Association of the Deaf president in response to the oralist movement.

BTW, I am neither deaf nor American. If anyone can point me to accounts that educate people about ASL or deaf culture here on Fedi, I would be grateful. This is something I miss from Twitter.
Also, apologies for not being able to supply a reference to back up what I said about BASL. It is common knowledge among ASL researchers and they were the ones who told me.

Hey, folks.
I love using Libre Office and have been for years. I write all my books with it. I believe you're leagues better than the MS version.
So why, oh why has Writer lost the ability to remember the last cursor position?
It's beyond annoying, especially when editing a 250 page document. This is one of the most important functions, to be able to continue where you stopped - why is it even broken?
Why has it been broken for so long?
