DeSantis' lawyers were forced by the court to define "woke." The lead lawyer described it as "The belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them."

@ehashman
Yeah, but being in the perfect position to tell disgruntled nerds to get forked is really tempting.

The only person on that instance is @epilonious and frankly this all seems quite in order.

@epilonious
Yes, that is not an opinion, outrage content is objectively more engaging, it's been well-scienced.

@ninjacooter
Nice. Love it. I will check them out. Thanks!

I think I've seen one? But dozens of complaints. The internet does that to me a lot lately.

@ericwbailey
It's nice to think about, but I don't think it's ever going to be a thing. First, css isn't practically separable from html, so it'll have to be and htmlcss dev, but more importantly we will need to change our engineering practices in a way that stops treating css as damage that needs to be routed around. We can't really live in a world where css engineers exist and tailwind.css is treated like a serious professional product at the same time.

While meta has spent 13 billion dollars on getting 35 people into its vr mmo and they still haven't quite invented legs and nobody is sure where all the money was spent.

You know I like the weird shit. How weird are we talking here?

@simeon I would love to take you to coffee some day and explain the whole sordid mess, but the short version is almost entirely the opposite of what you suggest. What happened was that some very smart people came up with a very specific solution to a very specific problem, released that solutions to the web, and the idiots on the web decided that these are the solutions to EVERYTHING.

React was a solution for Facebook internet explorer problems. Angularjs was a solution for consistency at Google. Angular2 was a solution for Google because angularjs was kind of lousy and everyone would rather write react. Vue was a solution for the fact that UX specialists always hated react. And developers responded with enthusiasm because they'd rather write this stuff in pure JavaScript than learn the polyglot, multiparadigm browser.

The problems, fundamentally, are that html is not composeable, css is contemptable, state is hard, and the internet grew too fast for its own good.

@berkes
Tailwind doesn't solve a technical problem, it solves a recruiting problem. It's just the next in a long series of products that attempt to abstract away and simplify core browser technology in such a way that we can avoid retraining developers from other specialties into web development.

Oh that's interesting, finance is almost always cobol, never fortran. I'd expect to see basic before fortran! To what purpose was the enter key disabled?
