    In yaml a mistake in indentation can easily result in a business error without config becoming invalid.

    Writing too much complex configs in files is a problem too ofc, we ended up moving a lot of stuff like that to a DB lately.

    I’m not a fan of indentation being logically meaningful not just in yaml. If you mess up indentation in python you can also get a technically valid code that’s wrong logically.








  • It will wither away with:

    1. Improving material conditions of people who won’t need it as a coping mechanism anymore.
    2. There are alternative cultural hubs in rural areas.
    3. Alternative, secular forms of socially accepted fantasizing get popular.

    I’m quite invested in the last point myself, actually. There are communities of adults having imaginary friends who are just imaginary friends.
