That really helps explain the context for one of my favorite PHP bashes ever.

It’s a great read but it should be noted that the post was written in 2012 and considered under such a context.
PHP is probably a fine language, my issue is I suffered dealing with so many shitty applications written in php when I was still coming up through the ranks of IT.
God the number of broken WordPress installs and shitty WordPress plugins.
For those wondering what WIRED means, it means that for the effective time of the drug in our systems we don’t have 5 million conflicting thoughts in our heads and for the first time in our lives we can focus on a task, remember tiny details, not run into various obstacles, and a myriad of other tasks that people without ADHD have never struggled with.
In short, for the 4 hours that pill is in our system and working, we can experience being fucking normal and not a gigantic mess struggling to juggle everything life needs from us.
whatever you say conversative enabler
I maintain the only reason it has that street name is due to ignorance of the difference between Adderall and meth. Wasn’t too long ago I was listen to conspiracy theorists say it was the same thing based on some bullshit they heard.
An ignorance of chemistry and science is nothing to be proud of, it’s how we end up with a group of religious dipshits forcing their beliefs on people and restricting people’s reproductive rights. Try opening a book instead of the TV next time, maybe you’ll learn something.
I suffer ADHD and Adderall (amphetamine) is a cure for alot of people who have it. Calling it the street name of an illicit drug makes treatment infinitely harder for other people who suffer it.
While the treatment doesn’t work for me (high blood pressure and naturally easily agitated), if I don’t stand up and say ‘hey that ain’t fucking right!’ then I haven’t done a god damn thing to help my fellow ADHD kid and that don’t sit right with me.

I stopped reading after the bullshit that is
“amphetamine the drug called speed” No it isn’t you stupid dipshit, that’s methamphetamine fucking do a basic Wikipedia search you stupid fuck
It has a lot to do with money and technology. By the time we were able to have electric vehicles, oil companies were loaded and companies like to make money. So they spend money to lobby and keep themselves entrenched. Throw in some good feel bullshit to placate a simple majority of the people and that brings us to today.
true true, that’s an excellent term for it. If only we could somehow assess it with metrics and data
That would be some really cool data to view “how stubborn are the attitudes in different countries” and “how many personalities are stubborn in different countries”
edit: this was an odd double post.
I don’t think you understand just how stupid my fellow country members are. We literally say “hey to prevent getting yourself and others sick, you should do these steps” making it a suggestion of reasonable things.
the response “my freedoms are being trampled”. I fucking wish they actually were.
This was quite a wonderful way to handle a miscommunication and I was glad to witness it.
Thanks for restoring some hope that the fediverse is capable of handling such issues with respect and courtesy.
certainly not all of them. some sure.
what I’m hunting down right now would be a service where we both can set the terms.
example I submit 50+service fee $ to x service <terms of the bet>. if I’m wrong money goes to NoSuchAgency
you also submit a bet of 50 + service fee <other half of the bet> if your wrong money goes to me.
winner gets their og bet money + other half of the bet. edit making sure the bets are accurate
we’ll keep it friendly. 50$ each. we’ll use an escrow service. if Biden doesn’t pardon him once he is no longer president, I win the cash. if he does you win.
agreeable?
Sadly your situation is more common than we’d hope on Lemmy.
