Others have mentioned many reasons, and while they do still exist in specialty groceries, they've died off because they are just bad.

Anyone spending good money on good coffee knows the in-store grinders will taste like all the crap-flavored beans the past 12 people put through them.

Even with unflavored grinds your supposed to grind some and toss it just to clear the old stuff out.

I would suggest getting your own grinder. Beans going through that thing probably have 31 flavors in them by the time they're ground.

So many people's bodies and wallets would benefit from 6 weeks of only drinking water.

The cravings will go away, drinks you used to love will suddenly be too sweet. You will simply feel better and wonder why you were so obsessed to begin with. Then you'll buy 18 different kinds of tea to drink just 2 regularly. No idea why the last step happens, but it does.

A watch that vibrates might help.

Given what happened (it skipping to the next step in the recipe), this was 100% "prerecorded AI" and they started on the wrong track.

No it's not. Tell them to learn to switch or lose access. It's your server, do what you want.

This breaks the quote, though. (It's a play on "Black" and "African American")

@DarkCloud@lemmy.world this may answer your question if it was a real one 🤷‍♂️

Others are debating the point about the doc itself, so I won't go there, but just because you enjoyed doing it, doesn't mean others do, or have the time.

I happen to write really detailed documentation, because I like to, I like the formality of it. However, as I stated in my other comment my complaint is about the assumptions made in the blog post. Specifically:

I just felt like if we rewrote the blog post as a “What a writer who’s never learned to program’s code looks like to a developer” it would make no sense, so why should we accept it in it’s current form?

Agreed, maybe this writer could step in and volunteer their time instead of writing satire complaining about it.

Oh man, this I do hate. If you have terminology in your app, that is not a standard, please, please define it.

I think you're spot on, and this is the reason I put "controversial" in front of it. I just felt like if we rewrote the blog post as a "What a writer who's never learned to program's code looks like to a developer" it would make no sense, so why should we accept it in it's current form?

However, in the 1950s, eradication efforts using sterile male flies and livestock monitoring began to push the fly population southward.

Then..

"It nearly wiped out our cattle industry before; we need to act forcefully now. That’s why I insist we start using pesticide bait immediately."

Is there a reason we wouldn't use sterile male flies before it even gets here? Or, you know, just keep them in international circulation?

Edit: Honest question, not snarky. I'm ignorant here.

 

When launching a new Lemmy instance, your All feed will have very little populated. Also as a small instance, new communities that crop up may never make their way to you. LCS is a tool to seed communities, so your users have something in their All feed, right from the start. It tells your instance to pull the top communities and the communities with the top posts from your favorite instances.

How to run manually and in docker is included in the repo.

Let me know if there's anything anyone needs it to do and I'll see if I can fit it in. I'm going to work on a "purge old posts that are unsaved and not commented on by local users" first, since small instances are sure to run out of disk space.
