UltraHamster64@lemmy.worldto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•If the road to hell is paved with good intentions, that means we've got an escape route5·5 months agoIntentions are all that matter!
No, not really. I can provide like a thousand examples, starting from dodo birds extinction and ending in wars and dictatorships, where the intentions were good, but incompetence, obliviousness, greed, stupidity or/and other factors made the results range from worst to catastrophic.
Also I’m pretty sure other cultures have some variation of it too. For example in slavic countries there is the saying “make a fool pray to good and he’s gonna hurt himself” which is highlighting similar issues

UltraHamster64@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What happens when I ignore the cookie preference dialogue on websites?1·8 months agoI have a question, it’s maybe stupid but still:
Aren’t cookies, like, files on your device?? Can’t you just forbid websites to write anything to disk??

UltraHamster64@lemmy.worldto Fediverse@lemmy.world•How to get people to use Mastodon?English4·8 months agoMy understanding is, in the early days, you could send an SMS to Twitter to post, so the limitation was imposed by SMS and not necessarily Twitter.
No. The twitter were build with the limit in mind, in fact it is its whole spiel.
Why? It’s not thar deep.

It games the attention span of viewers. You can read 3-4 articles before getting tired or going about your day, but you can guzzle infinite number of twits, because they are small, engaging and various

It not only games the viewers but posters too. Maybe you want to write an article, or blog post, but you know it’s going to be long. So you better do it on the weekend. Or when you have more time. Which for many is never. But writing a couple sentences? Easy! You can do it on a bus! You can do it on the toilet! And, if everyone is on the same level as you, you don’t feel bad for keeping it short.

UltraHamster64@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why are there silly license requirements?3·8 months agoWhile it seems logical at first, when you consider it seriously it quickly falls apart.
Even not considering such questions as “How do you enforce it?” (What are you going to do? Take the kid from them? That would quickly turn into a giant mess) or “How effective in actuality it is going to be?” (What stopping someone malicious to ace the exam and then abuse their kid without legal repercussions?) much simpler reason is that it would even further hinder the already falling birth rates. And most of the goverments and people don’t want that.
