disagree. Colocation seems great when authoring, but it comes at a big cost of downstream tech debt

there could be better ways to ease the burdon of naming things, while preserving cascade and the actual full features of CSS

Tailwind is a mirage, a shortcut to not having to do the important stuff by stacking wrappers on top of wrappers and redundancy

And the "fragile" part is exactly the same thing with tailwind, it all remains low specificity class names

I'll second that, this is extremely annoying and exhausting.

It feels like the slightest occurrence of a less-than-ubiquitous pattern or any word not regularly used by the majority of the population instantly spawns a sleuth of newfound linguists who'll pitch in to explain how this certain marker ought to be proof of AI origin.

This does nothing for the conservation, except helping the claim that AI will erode and dumb down our language become a self-fulfilling prophecy when people start feeling pressured to use the most dumbed down, simplistic and rhetorically bland way of expressing themselves to avoid any "suspicion"

Given the premise, one could also say we nerds are forever happy.

We've been running our services on Hetzner for 10 years, never experienced any significant outages.

That might be datacenter dependant of course, since our root servers and cloud services are all hosted in Europe, but I really never understood why Hetzner is said to be less reliable

I agree fully with the statement that art of the past is a portrait of what the world was then, and should therefore rest untouched to give us context in the current era.

To give a better idea of this issue than simple "publications that aren't that old and are edited to keep them marketable", I'll propose a thought experiment:

Imagine we'd have kept editing Hitler's "Mein Kampf" to adapt, censor and euphemise it's heinous ideology to keep it publishable over the decades. There would obviously hardly be anything left of it's original content.

And mind, I am not at all constructing this example to suggest anything in that book would've been worth preserving for it's intrinsic value, I'm rather trying to point out the very opposite:

If current editions of this hateful crap & all it's adjacent publications and propaganda would still be printed and sold, but in a form so radically changed that they conform to the current Zeitgeist and moral values, there would soon be no way left to educate coming generations about how the third Reich and Nazism came about, and what ideologies we should guard against and prevent in the future.

Obviously, this thought experiment bears much more radical and ludicrous consequences than a gun in a kids movie or some casually racist or sexist lines in a 90s movie - but ultimately, what we do by "greenwashing" recent works of art has a very similar effect: we rob future generations of the possibility to comprehend our cultural and ideologic development, and to learn and understand how it came to be. We censor historical context to maximize current profits.

Isn't that common in Europe, even required by law in most of it's countries? I'm not sure about Poland though

it's funny how culture shapes our designations of the same thing. In (specially us) english it's duct tape as the product is primarily known for installation work, and often referred to as "duck tape" for it's well known brand, whereas in (german speaking) europe we also employ an English word for it, but call it "gaffer tape", for it's usage by light operators in the event business (so called gaffers)
