they can still help improve perceived startup time by caching layout, CSS, and some static pages.

yeah, the meme template I used is intentionally like that with the trollface and such. sorry if it bothered you. I had to recently interact with one of these dis-services and it made me think of this.

lemmesay OP , 1 month ago

that was my intention. thanks for putting it into words

i don't even use discord but still get those emails every year(I think someone accidentally made an account with my mail). it's crazy that these companies update their privacy policies every year, refining and adding more convoluted clauses.

costs me 100 dollars each year just so that I can push an app to their app store, even if I make zero bucks off of it(and if I did, they'd want an additional 30% share of it).
not to mention that I can't develop an app without a mac – an artificial requirement created by them.

it is expensive for developers that aren't in the west

thanks, accessibility is something I tend to focus on a lot.

I oscillate between using more functional paradigms and more object-oriented ones. is that normal?
I use a linter BTW(TypeScript) if that is a useful info.

I heavily use classes while working on back end, and when I'm making a really self-contained logic, such as a logger or an image manipulation service.
but since most frontend stuff heavily leans on functional side, I go with it

most of this "he's a pos" comes from the misconceptions about him. he has a certain fixation to the vocabulary, and he often corrects others for it. then those people take the "attempt to correct" as "support" for the debate itself.

he wasn't tone dead in that case you mentioned. he has since changed his thoughts about it.

Many years ago I posted that I could not see anything wrong about sex between an adult and a child, if the child accepted it.

Through personal conversations in recent years, I've learned to understand how sex with a child can harm per psychologically. This changed my mind about the matter: I think adults should not do that. I am grateful for the conversations that enabled me to understand why

because they don't serve you targeted ads. duckduckgo's(and startpage's) business model is keyword-based ads, for which they are getting plenty of revenue.
brave has other paid offerings like search without ads(premium), brave VPN, their own shitcoin(BAT) and so on.

as for the search results, I'm a software developer. most of the time I know what I am searching for, and I don't want my search engine to go on overdrive and interpret it as something else. for me, duckduckgo is perfect. google, on the other hand, is worse for me for this and other reasons.
and there shouldn't be much difference between duckduckgo and bing(sans account) since duckduckgo sources the results from bing.

I don't know when did you last try duckduckgo, but I've been using it since 2015 and I've rarely been disappointed. in case i am missing on something, it's just a !sp away(duckduckgo bangs).
