@foone so much for the 5V tolerant left

It's a very short line from "Zoom CEO wants a deepfake of you to attend your meetings" to the situation @ZachWeinersmith predicted over a decade ago https://www.smbc-comics.com/comic/2013-11-01

@foone @molly0xfff so, it would survive the same way the fried transformers survive, in that they would still exist, but they wouldn't do anything anymore

@foone what even is the use of a phone without a floppy drive?

@foone The sample code for the API I'm using just puts parameters into environment variables and then calls the pure function

@aral Yeah, hopefully I have time to get to that bit on this project. Tight deadline is tight.

@aral Good advice... in moderation. The trap is that temporary solutions can extremely easily turn permanent, especially under a deadline. But I'm feeling this recently, I'm working on porting a work thing from a deprecated API to the new API, and I started by copying the whole thing. I'll hopefully be able to merge it back together at the end, but that depends on how different the new API ends up being. Giving yourself permission to copy/paste can definitely break down the barrier to starting.

@muvlon @brion Stalebots are used by projects that resent being open source and do not want contributions

@marcan So how are you actually identifying their traffic now, out of curiosity?
