I think the public that uses those tools usually don’t care about standard practices (yet?).

So congrats, you are on the forefront I guess.

Postponed-Architecture ?

I think the situation has improved, but still far from perfect. Last time I used robocop and Python to build some tests. But that’s not something I use often, so there may be better options available.

Or try to take over like Redis

A rough translation of a brazilian quote for you: “In a fight between these guys, I cheer for the fight”.

People think computer as magic. That would be nice to make people understand that it’s not. That’s pretty much a dumb machine where we put our intelligence to work.

Perfect answer.

Or the non-ascii character itself.

It will depend on how many instances will join the extensions…

I have a different argument for why Meta could kill the Fediverse. Even before they engage on Embrace Extend Extinguish strategy, the simple fact that Meta will have an extremely large user base from the start may kill financially the rest of Fediverse.

All projects that embrace ActivityPub are not prepared to deal with the volume of data that a Meta’s facebook-like or twitter-like project would bring.

In a best case scenario it would force the development of current Fediverse projects to focus on sustentability earlier than necessary, and the missing features would be delayed. And that alone would cause problems to the future of such projects.

On the other hand, the smaller nodes would see the storage costs rising fast and would be at a higher risk of dying simply because they would not be able to pay.

I remember getting 9x improvement on a set of Shell scripts at work, piping the results instead of writing and reading from files at each step.

Expect this and they killing some of their products.

How low the barrier is depends on how good is your prior knowledge. If you are a millennial that remember the internet before Facebook, it’s probably very easy to understand the gist. For older people who never got into how computers work, or younger people that only saw the internet through smartphone apps, that barrier may be higher than we feel.

But possibly more damaging, and less accountable.

It’s hard make such comparisons on “real world” code, and challenges use to be more attractive to people trying to learn, so your hypothesis make sense.

Advertising it on work is not an option? Because the technical barrier to change language inside the JVM ecosystem is quite low.
