Doesn't Lemmy support cross posting?

I considered implementing Lemmy comments and theorised I'd post to my own community/instance so I had full moderation control, then cross post that to all the relevant communities.

This really shows how antiquated a lot of our rail network still is. I wouldn't have believed this were still possible. We've had safeguards to prevent this kind of issue since the age of steam.

I'm going to hazard a wild guess that privatisation and tory cuts are the ultimate cause of this.

This has been one of my biggest frustrations while learning Rust. I'm coming from .NET which has an incredible wealth of official System and Microsoft libraries all of which are robust and well documented.

Rust on the other hand has the bare minimum std library, with everything else implemented by the community. There isn't even a std async library. It's insane.

Even the popular community libraries are severely lacking in documentation or inexplicably unmaintained.

Rust has a ton of potential but it desperately needs some broad funding to align the fundamentals to a decent standard.

There is a hell of hype but some of it is justified.

Chat GPT is really good at explaining stuff. Try asking to explain inventory capitalization, and just repeatedly ask it to explain it simpler and simpler and simpler. Then ask why repeatedly. It has a hell of lot more patience than a human and the client is going to be far less embarrassed repeatedly asking an AI than a human.

I'd also expect it to be pretty good at picking out relevant case law if to feed it a specific issue. However, where issues will arise is it will just make shit up at some point and it'll seem absolutely legit so you'll accept it without question.

A quick glance and this seemed nothing to do with self documenting code and everything to do with the flaws when code isn't strictly typed.

Is your issue somebody profiting from including the work in a collection? If so non-commercial might achieve your aims. Just add a note that people can reach out to you directly for commercial use.

They are just iso country codes though, so it is just the luck that some have become so popular.

Some countries are pretty strict that their tlds must be local or at least provide translation in the regional language. The cook islands for instance have prime opportunity with .co.ck but they refuse the to let people take advantage

Yep. The governments typically select who administers the tld and then get a lump sum or portion of the revenues.

For .ai it was 10% of their GDP in 2023 which is insane...

The registration fees earned from the .ai domains go to the treasury of Government of Anguilla. As per a New York Times report, in 2018, the total revenue generated out of selling .ai domains was $2.9 million.[13][14]

In 2023, Anguilla’s government made about US$32 million from fees collected for registering .ai domains. That amounted to more than 10% of gross domestic product for the territory.[

The funding.json file requires a full name email and phone number. Absolutely ridiculous. People are already scraping git commit emails for spam mail, this is just making their lives easier

It's more bizarre that a single organisation would have such tight control over the Internet. Assigning a tld to each country is a good way to appease each country and give them autonomy over their own portion

Anything is better than minetest which sounded like a hastily written debugging mod for Minecraft
