You know those bug reports where the user somehow didn't see the huge bug report right on the front page with 100 comments, pinned to the top of the issues page, and they duplicated it? Where they didn't provide a log or a stack trace, or even their system specs? The kind of report which caused the developers to implement a massive issue template that the user just ignored?

We automated that 😎

That template? — Filled with garbage.

That stack trace? — Contains methods that don't actually exist.

It's not debugging, it's deblowmyfuckingbrainsout.

Bare except, too. Not ideal.

I clicked before I read the title fully and, like you, I thought this was from 1860 or something. What the fuck.

I don't actually think that software is necessarily neutral, and that for this sort of thing to be successful in the current landscape it MUST be Marxists who make it. Take Bluesky, for example. Or OpenAI is perhaps a better example. Maybe this breaks some people out of the "Elon bad -> Dorsey good" cycle of analysis as to why lemmy exists and maybe leads them to question the use of the "tankie" perjorative in general.

Angela Collier's video about this: https://youtu.be/wBBnfu8N_J0?t=2213 (Kaku part starts at 36:50).

A TLDW on the rest of the video: "Gell-Mann Amnesia" is a term Michael Crichton coined. It refers to how people read articles in a newspaper about a topic they are experts in, realize it's all horribly written trash, then turn the page and happily read the next article about an unfamiliar topic forgetting they just learned the newspaper is trash.

Collier expands on the idea to include the Gell-Mann Complement and Gell-Mann Recollection. The Recollection is what Kaku does, where he doesn't know anything about a topic but presents a simple explanation on it anyway just because he's an expert in something different. This frequently gets him into completely bonkers territory, like Deepak Chopra level bonkers.

In this episode Butters is visiting Niagara Falls as a tourist, but he is arrested for being a foreigner. Nobody cares about his passport or the fact he was there "legally" and he gets funneled into a huge prison facility called "Alberta Alcatraz".

After several scary experiences he is in line for a phone call. When he gets to the front the guard pretends to not understand what he is asking for.

  • Guard: WELL, what do YOU WANT?
  • Butters: Uhh I want to make a phone call, please.
  • Guard: Puh-hone call? Puh-hone? What's that?
  • Butters: I don't understand mister. I'd like to call someone on that phone.
  • Guard: Oh THIS? DO YOU MEAN-

The guard lets out a long, trumpet-like fart that sounds like, "fooooooooooone".

  • Butters: Wha--- what?
  • Guard 2: YEAH! YOU MEAN- (farting) foooooooooooone!

Apparently this is how Canadians make the word, "phone".

  • Guard 2: HEY THIS LITTLE YANK CAN'T SAY- (farting) ffhhhooooooone!!
  • Guard: HAHA!!! (farting) fuuuooooooooooooooone!

All guards start laughing at Butters and farting "fooooone". They can all apparently do this quite naturally.

  • Butters: B-but, I don't have to fart right now.
  • Guard: IF YOU WANT SOMETHING YOU NEED TO LEARN TO SPEAK CANADIAN!

Butters resolves to save up his farts to get his phone call. Several days pass. Now trembling and sweating, a pale Butters can barely stand in line.

  • Butters: Oh man... I gotta make it...

The inmate in front of him effortlessly farts "foooooooooone" and is let ahead. Butters is up.

  • Guard: YEAH? WHAT DO YOU WANT THIS TIME?
  • Butters: I want... I want... I... uh... UH.... ahhH!!

Butters loses control of his bowels and sprays shit in all directions, then collapses. Everyone around yells in disbelief and disgust.

A large inmate walks up and looks down.

  • It's OK little buddy, my cousin had that same speech impediment.

Then I woke up.

There's no way they want to eliminate bot traffic, it would kill 2/3rds of their traffic instantly. So this just means, "bots that aren't paying us."

Prefacing by saying I'm a total noob to webdev.

I'm trying to move my personal portfolio site off of Squarespace and onto some sort of static hosting. Since I know nothing, I'm cobbling together hugo templates and using LightBox2 to show image galleries. The blog I'm referencing includes LightBox2 using this:

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.4.1/jquery.min.js" integrity="sha256-CSXorXvZcTkaix6Yvo6HppcZGetbYMGWSFlBw8HfCJo=" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/lightbox2/2.11.1/js/lightbox.min.js" integrity="sha256-CtKylYan+AJuoH8jrMht1+1PMhMqrKnB8K5g012WN5I=" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

I would prefer to not subject people viewing my page to any external tracking if I can avoid it. My page has zero tracking/analytics for this reason. I briefly tried downloading LightBox2 and directly including it instead, and was able to get it working mostly, but some things were broken that I would need to debug. Before I do that I was wondering, is this even a problem? Is including stuff from cloudflare cdn like this sketchy? It's possible I'm being overly paranoid but I have no idea.
