pebble··on Vibecoding isn't as fun as writing code by hand
I don’t see that. Where did they do that?
pebble··on Vibecoding isn't as fun as writing code by hand
> Yes. Who says people must enjoy coding?

Nobody. But if you never enjoyed coding then the post about enjoying coding clearly isn't for you?

pebble··on What About Rails?
From this reply your answer could still be read either ways and that someone is still a nazi regardless of how loud someone is.

Those of the conservative persuasion love to use the loudness of some people to invalidate all condemnations of nazis, right or wrong.

pebble··on What About Rails?
I'd be curious to know your answers to these because they seem rather obvious to me..

Just because some people calling someone a nazi are wrong doesn't mean everyone calling someone a nazi is wrong.

To be clear for anyone reading, the “personal ideology” here is racism with a white supremacist leaning.

I think piracy is besides the point here. Most people will pay for a month, finish the game they wanted to play and then cancel. This goes for both pirates and land lovers. What MS has in the end is a game sold for a fraction of the price and no customer conversion to subscriber.

I see nothing here rebuking the above claim. Maybe you would’ve had better luck coming up with something if you had bothered to write it yourself.
