I had this when I was at my old working place ( nurse for elderly care) after every shift. Went on a hiatus on nursing for a year . Now, I work in an intensive care unit with 9 people total living here, with tracheostoma. I have to take care of 3 people in a 12 hour shift. No more sore muscles!
I keep seeing here people say “Its better here, because reddit has power hungry mods”.
But…what checks are in place here besides “create a new instance, and run your own duplicate community”?
To me, thats like the nuclear option. It’s something that ultimately hurts the fediverse. 1 community with 50 users is a lot stronger than 5 communities that all post essentially the same content with 10 users each.
And ok, maybe the time comes where you DO need to create the alternative duplicate community. Maybe the Lemmy mod has gotten power hungry. So a second community is created. Whats to say the second community won’t have power hungry mods as THAT community grows? Now you need a third community…and, you see where this is going.
I haven’t seen any power hungry mods on here YET, but everytime I ask the question how would it be handled, the answer is always “you could always create another instance/community.”
But in my opinion, that hurts Lemmy. So the thing you’re solving better be 10x more harmful than the harm you’re creating by fractioning the userbase.
Yeah, I just saw him on Rich Eisen and was thinking “it’s nice you’ve moved on from that night but that’s a major part of your legacy now, dude.”
While i’m here i’ll add it’s always so funny to me watching Richards or Ed O’Neil talking like they’re some master thespians. Bro, you were the guy who fell down a lot on tv, calm down 😂
So the tricky part is, which patterns are actually strong enough yet not necessarily obtrusive, so that you can start applying them early on? That’s a million dollar question.
That’s what experience is for. Design patterns aren’t rules for a reason - they have a time and a place to apply them.
It’s difficult to say exactly when you should use any given pattern much less a pattern “generally.” Typically it’s when “it’s better to use it then when it’s not” which is very hand-wavy.
It takes experience to be able to say “ahh, what I’m doing here is a good match for a ______ pattern given what I want to accomplish”.
What I will say is that if you’re doing professional development (rather than something experimental or for personal use) then it’s likely you will want to at least consider using a pattern if one exists that matches your use-case. And understand why you do or don’t follow said pattern.
Yeah, it’s a bit unfortunate. However, it’s not completely wrong to use the word design, it’s almost more a problem of the baggage that the word “design” carries. obviously “intelligent design” as a concept for evolution is bullshit and if you can’t separate the concept of “design” from intent then you’re still just as wrong. All that said, I think it’s fair to talk about species being designed, there is just absolutely zero intent involved anywhere,* with no forethought, or any “thought” at all from the designer. A species is “designed” entirely by the forces of circumstance. The material conditions, if you will, of their environment.
