Logged on 2022-03-17 14:44:23 asciilifeform: verisimilitude: difficult to object to this, asciilifeform a++ in favour of over9000x moar of this behaviour, what else could possibly stand a chance of curing ru, cn, et al from reich shitware

01:35

Logged on 2022-03-17 14:46:24 asciilifeform: verisimilitude: well yes. using shitware per se needs to become over9000x moar painful. so from asciilifeform's pov a liquishit lib that suddenly 'rm -rf /' is a win.

Logged on 2022-05-14 13:42:39 punkman: billymg: vue seemed as horrible as any of the "reactive" frameworks. I rewrote multi-megabyte vue thing to 400-500 lines of vanilla-js/jquery a couple years back.

The ``solution'' chosen, asciilifeform, is always to merely avoid JavaScript or whatnot, and to use the trustworthy software, as this still avoids needing to verify anything.
