They probably just use Facebook + LinkedIn or other public databases. I remember a project on hackafay of someone who did something similar and found with some basic programming, it's definitely possible to get some matches. But that was years ago.
- Comment on When tech hardware becomes paperweights 2 days ago:
It's the only reason my 1500$ CPAP still works. Company discontinued it but I fixed it up so it still works. And it had a hard 5 year replacement rule, ie it's designed to software block you from using the machine after 5 years and get a new one.

Is there a better spot for technical blogs? I figure that !Technology@lemmy.world is probably fine, but I am not sure where else to put technical posts like this one.
Technology sometimes feels closer to Technology news (which was how reddit acted like it was).

Thunder force 4 or lightning force in my youth was a really fun game. Played it to death on the Genesis. It still holds up. I still play it from time to time.

Sounds like a number pulled out the butt. It will be closer to all of them going by GitHub projects spun up on the timeline, never to be completed.

blink and center dont work on most modern sites. iframes in particular break now. Give it another 10 years. Hell React will break if you dont keep up with the updates every 6ish months. Or so it feels.
We can have both. Sites that marvel and little txt sites.

Where are you seeing that? I only see email address.
- Comment on No JS, No CSS, No HTML: online "clubs" celebrate plainer websites 2 weeks ago:
Dunno. Give it a shot and see how it goes!
Personally I would just set nginx + translator that would push the site into different formats if I wanted it long term. Just dump the resultant files, set up a website.cool/xxx.txt and push it out there.

Plus markdown is kinda loosy goosy when it comes to the "standard". Sites like Github and wikipedia have slightly different specs. And each site has a different scheme to hook into it.
Its much easier to set up static site generators or hook into something that can translate. But maybe that will change.
I personally would like other languages in the browser. Native python the browser would be nice for example.

You may have more luck with neocities and their sites. Lots of webrings around there and a lot of people having fun.
- Comment on No JS, No CSS, No HTML: online "clubs" celebrate plainer websites 2 weeks ago:
Frames still break on some sites. center is still being joked about. Once in a while you still see plaintext on some very old sites.
And as a dev of over 20 years, I can say for a fact that deprecations will occur. And its all code cruft for modern browsers to navigate. Its easier to let them die. And in 10+ years the txt docs will still work. Mostly. Maybe. :D Unicode emojis make it even more confusing to the conversion.

If they are useful, people will still use them. We can have both. Modern Browsers that are closer to full scale OSes AND tiny little txt sites that give users info on the given topic.
- Comment on No JS, No CSS, No HTML: online "clubs" celebrate plainer websites 2 weeks ago:
That would be nice.
- Comment on No JS, No CSS, No HTML: online "clubs" celebrate plainer websites 2 weeks ago:
I think because in 10 or so years, there might be a new standard that breaks the site again. Or makes it unusable.
TXT breakthroughs are still used for a reason. Its much harder to break txt files over decades.
All that is assuming someone still wants to read your txt but that is besides the point.

- Comment on The strenghts and weaknesses of atproto and activitypub. 2 weeks ago:
I think in order for both to work towards a better fediverse, there needs to be a "true" sync. Not like the bridge Bluesky is maintaining, we need something to sync both ways. Even if its just a subset with just public posts to begin with.
