assume `a` and `b` are integers, numbers, and that `a + b` is less than `Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER`; this isn’t a gotcha where `a` and `b` are strings and i’m not talking about rounding errors here

(no)

is `-(a + b)` always the same value as `-a + -b`?

pokémon!

god, with all of these billionaires launching their own twitter replacements, it makes me envious. if only that was something us ordinary people could do

ok but my alternate english orthography IS actually pretty good

maybe i will just make a tradition of introducing one change to make the english language better a year and see how long it takes before my posts become completely unreadable

is 2023 the year i try to make å a thing or is it still too soon

« XMPP did not exist on its own outside of nerd circles, while ActivityPub enjoys the support and brand recognition of Mastodon. »

nobody ever claimed activitypub is FAIR

buddy that just means that the specification isn’t patent‐encumbered and you can read it online

i am suspending so many tiny “i’m depressed and do not deserve consequences for my actions” pleroma/akkoma/misskey instances right now oh my god

stop recommending me the remix albums for things you didn't bother telling me about when they released

there i wrote the post for you that’s what you should be saying if you give a shit about the otw at all

“although i don't have the power to moderate this server, as an otw volunteer i want to say that i am deeply embarrassed that this conversation was allowed to develop the way it did. i can’t speak for the otw, but on a personal level i want plural fans to know that i respect them and will always try to ensure they have a space here. i will be speaking with my supervisors to stress the need for an apology, and if you have any further concerns i encourage you to reach out to me, understanding that i am only a lowly tag wrangler.”

“a conversation between 5 people” sure, in public, in a server with over 800

how are you not mortified??? how are you not doing everything you can right now to save face for your organization??

i’m upset and i don’t even care about the OTW. how do the people who literally volunteer there not see this as hugely embarrassing?? do they not realize that this is the first impression MANY #EndOTWRacism / #VoteToEndOTWRacism newbies are going to have of their board/process/meetings??
