It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
This is an instance we have never federated making a defederation post about us. You can search the instances page, we've never linked with a kbin instance. we've never interacted with kbin users. we don't even have to dunk on them for our posting power to overwhelm.
Amen to that! Go is easily my favourite language for writing web backends. 95% of what one needs for the average web project is part of the standard library, including that really nice automatically-multithreaded web server. And the html templating is wonderful to work with. Most of what I write has to work javascript-free in a default-settings Tor browser. Go's templating makes it really simple to do server-side rendering of complex pages.
A nice bonus is that the very C-like syntax meshes well with my grew-up-on-C brain. For me PHP's syntax is downright Lovecraftian.
