@jeena@toot.jeena.net @CrazyMyra@mastodon.social @feditips@mstdn.social idk I've just been noticing most people I block because I see their bad takes hail from that instance but that's likely at least in part due to the size.

@Mama_H@climatejustice.social @campuscodi@mastodon.social It pops up anywhere there's stale water, from time to time. Usually it becomes a problem only because of cross-contamination, such as when there's a reservoir for hot water or sprinkler systems and somehow water can spill over into the drinking water system. That's why you often hear about outbreaks in places like hotels or schools.

@zachleat To be clear, I'm not defending React as an alternative where static site generators are an option. I'm talking about it in the context of shared stateful content, i.e. "apps". In this context there's no question of "React or no React", only "React or what else". Several prominent voices in the React space have for years now expressed a desire to move on to "the next thing" when it comes around and it's increasingly looking like that time is near with attitudes towards React shifting the same way they did when people abandoned AngularJS (which had been dominant in the same space at its time, though of course the space itself has been consistently increasing in overall size since 1997). Heck, remember Google's "Object.observe" proposal, which failed so badly they had to redesign Angular2 from scratch? I'm not sure what the point of collecting a thousand ways to say "React bad" is when most of these are presented without the historical context. But if the goal is to get people to abandon React there needs to be a clear direction to move towards. And no, "islands" aren't a panacea unless you just want to ignore apps entirely, aside from them feeling oddly reminiscent of Web2.0 era widgets and could be argued to be the "junk drawer" approach to performance concerns, i.e. simply excluding what you don't want to or can't improve from the relevant metrics.

@chrisod@fosstodon.org As a foreigner the most interesting and horrifying part was learning that the US has literal schools in churches. I always thought church operated schools were only connected financially and politically, not physically.

@vfrmedia@social.tchncs.de @chrisod@fosstodon.org We have kindergartens associated with churches and they're usually in close proximity, but what surprised me was it literally being part of the same building.

@seperis@fosstodon.org I think the corruption was from that lingering feeling of inadequacy and the opportunity to "get what he deserves". Maybe I'm reading too much into this by viewing it through the lenses of feminism and anarchism but it reminded me of American Beauty where the corrupting influence isn't the "sexy teenager" but the old white man's alienation from his private life that makes him project all of his hidden desires onto an innocent girl.

Except the resentment is far more palpable in the case of Walter White, especially when contrasted with Hank, who also is a very troubled man but is admired by Walter's own son and riffs on him.

@tekeous@fosstodon.org I think we're so used to the Great Man myth that we just naturally frame stories this way. With that framing Breaking Bad has all the trappings of the Monomyth but if you look at it more closely it tells the opposite story. The show could have ended after a couple of episodes if Walt wouldn't have felt he needed to be "in charge" rather than being a good partner to his wife and working together with his friends and family to overcome hardship. A story of a Walter White who can accept his vulnerability, is open about his needs, honest to himself and accepts help when it is offered just wouldn't have made for very exciting television. I guess this is why I didn't find El Camino very interesting. Jesse tries to do right by others and he accepts help when he needs it. The only drama in his life is created from Walter dragging him back down when he tries to grow. @seperis@fosstodon.org

Breaking Bad spoilers

@tekeous@fosstodon.org The medical debt is the catalyst but the motivation is shame and pride. His life is a failure by his standards:

  • he left a successful startup that turned his former friends into millionaires if not billionaires

  • he went into education but instead of working at a university he ended up in a podunk high school for decades with kids who don't care

  • his relationship with his wife is distant and stale: remember the scene with the extremely unsexy "birthday handjob"

  • his firstborn son is disabled, which Walt clearly doesn't want to accept: see him trying to force Jr to drive "normally"

  • his second child being born unplanned and so much later than the first

  • his car was deliberately chosen by the creators because it's disappointment personified

  • he has a second "entry level" job to make ends meet and his boss is a jerk but he can't risk losing it

  • even with two jobs he can't provide for his family so Skyler has to go back to work

  • his wife's boss clearly has an interest in her

Note that none of these things are a big deal, many aren't even negative, but to him these all represent his failure as a man in life and the cancer means he's facing his mortality and looking back at his life he only sees failure and wants more.

The drug thing starts out as a get-rich-quick scheme to at least not add "leaving your family with crippling medical debt" to the list, but when Skyler asks his old friends to give him a job, that clearly is no longer the issue. He wants to be the one in control of his life. He wants to be "the one who knocks". And he destroys everything and everyone around him to get there.

Note that even his final redemption of sacrificing himself to save Jesse only comes after he already threw his family's life into ruin and got his brother in law killed. He still can't give up control at that point: he forces his former co-workers to give his family his own money even though we already know from the early seasons they would have readily given their own. The only reason he does this is because if he couldn't even give any of that money to his family, even indirectly and pointlessly, his narrative falls apart: he'd have nothing to show for all the things he'd done.

And surely there would have been ways to save Jesse without sacrificing himself. But where would that leave him? Alive as a failure with nothing to show for it. And he can't accept that. So he has to die in the process to remain a hero.

@tagesschau@ard.social Journalismus heißt übrigens nicht einfach talking points wiedergeben, sondern diese auch kritisch zu hinterfragen und in den faktischen Kontext zu setzen. Sonst kann man halt auch einfach einen auf Springer machen und sich auf PR für rechte Politik beschränken.

@drwindows@mastodontech.de Gut. Vielleicht lässt das Microsoft Marketing Department dann endlich die Edge Entwickler einfach nur einen vernünftigen Browser basteln, statt ständig mit diesen bescheuerten Aktionen dazwischen zu funken.

@ramsey@phpc.social @pluralistic@mamot.fr Wait. People thought BS was going to be serious about being federated and all that jazz? It's an investment vehicle launched by a billionaire. Why would they do that if it reduces the value of the company and monetization opportunities?

@tagesschau@ard.social Was soll das? Wenn seine Aussage ihn nicht davon distanziert, ist das doch Antwort genug? Als ob Rechte jemals zu ihren Ansichten stehen, wenn man ihnen die Pistole auf die Brust setzt während sie noch nicht unwiderruflich an der Macht sind. Wenn Rechte offen sagen würden, was sie wollen, würde sie kaum jemand wählen.

@ewolff@mastodon.social Dieser Lauterbach scheint sehr kompetent. Jemand sollte den zum Gesundheitsminister machen. Der aktuelle ist ja eine totale Pfeife, kann mir nicht mal seinen Namen merken.
