Yes I am

It seems like you’re looking for a prescriptive definition of cult and culture that would cover every cult and every culture, and I don’t think you’re going to find one. Humans organize in complex ways that rarely align with strict definitions.

Cults tend to be defined by how they control their members. Cultures tend to form around similarities.

You need actual moderation to keep people safe.

I don’t like the overuse and misuse of Material UI – the paper-looking thing with raised textures and shadows. It takes a bit of work to make it look good, and many sites just drop in a CSS file and call it a day.

Dude, have you worked in tech? At all? It’s already horrendously overrun with men who step outside their space and make everyone’s day worse. I don’t begrudge women for being frustrated that it’s happening at the Grace Hopper conference.

Learning K8s is a lot to take on, but it will pay off as your needs expand in the long term — and if you decide to go into infra/ops at work.

Networking two machines is easy; networking several with good onboarding and DNS is not as easy.

Tailscale is a nice way to set up a private network between your machines. It’s perfectly fine.

I’m not denying that Mozilla has a history of poor governance. But they are the competitor to Google here. You need to consider these things in context to understand what anti-corporate means for the internet.

It absolutely matters. We need to consider that a right-wing actor is likely to exaggerate claims against an organization that is ostensibly socially-minded and represents anti-corporate interests, like Mozilla.

Full disk encryption is something you really want to have when your computer is lost or stolen.
