« With the implementation of the Belt and Road strategy, especially the launch of Chinese Language Resources Protection Project by the Ministry of Education and the State Language Commission in 2015, a strong impetus is given to the rescue and protection of minority languages. The Jinping dialect of the Dai languages was included in the 2015 language preservation project and the project was completed. This is the first time that this dialect has been approved as a special research project. In May 2019, with the support of the Jinping County Party Committee and the county government, the Jinping County Cultural Centre hosted the first Jinping Dai writing system standardization seminar, discussing the normalization, standardization and informatization of the Jinping Dai writing system. Experts from the Office of the Steering Committee for Ethnic Minority Languages in Yunnan Province, Yunnan Minzu University and other Dai experts and scholars from Honghe Prefecture reached a consensus on how to solve the problems of irregularities in Jinping Dai writing system and inconsistencies between the written and spoken languages, and initial results were achieved in the standardization process. »

not sure this will get accepted in its current state but i like it https://www.unicode.org/L2/L2022/22209-wuyue-zhenxing-tu-fu.pdf

and this all really comes down to good initial design and the longevity guarantees baked into javascript. maintenance costs are virtually nonexistent because of lightweight modular design and good OPP/duck typing practices, and a programming language with a rigid standardization process that never breaks old code

it's not even like a lot of code necessarily but even ignoring the vast size of my github archives the things i am actively piecing together over on gitlab are an awful lot of power for a system which has one user who is mostly coding things for her personal websites

i love that i am constantly finding new things i can make with things that i made but it's also kind of scary the complexity of some of the stuff i'm building where every single line of code is written and maintained by me

“It sounds good until you search for ‘kelp’ and get 5 million pictures of kelp when you’re just looking for a book… and they all look the same unless you know about kelp.”

how long before my entire webpage is being rendered in bitmap fonts onto canvas elements because it's the only way i can get the text to display like i want

the status.kibi.exposed version has a link https://status.kibi.exposed/topics/KibiSoftwareRelease/01838769-bea2-77f5-888a-733b993c7cf7

lol this is woefully uninformative

do we know for a fact that calcifer is not just a bi woman

we do not have any alternatives for this

on the other hand, it is a mechanism for encoding an identifier that every system can understand

all a URL is is a mechanism for encoding an identifier that every system can understand

how identifiers are assigned? not specified by URL
what that identifier means? not specified by URL
how to resolve that identifier? not specified (or guaranteed) by URL

it is both amazing and a real problem how many people think that URLs are somehow both more and less than this

the only thing URLs get you is a universally-understood syntax with defined semantics

i would also ram an asteroid but they never reply to my posts on Lex

but the A throws me every time
