How do you compile a compiler?

There must be so much complexity in the build chain

The Theory of Evolution is just like the chicken and the egg on repeat for eternity.

Eyes: what came first?
- The eyeball
- The socket
- The optic nerve
- The visual processing part of the brain

Or ears:
- Auditory processing centre
- Auditory nerve
- Ear canal
- Ear drum

Did legs start growing knees before or after the supporting ligaments and cartilage developed?

Like, any of these components on its own is not only weird/unnecessary/non-functional, without the supporting components it would make survival HARDER.

@TomDelargy Hard to say, what I've realized that I was being too picky about who I chose to follow. For instance, the person might have several appealing interests but they also like sports (which I do not) so I wouldn't follow them. Finally, I decided to go ahead and start following people who shared interests even if they had things that weren't of interest of me, and my activity started to pick up. As for the well-known Twitter folks coming over, it's been largely hit or miss.

I want/need more activity on Mastodon and we all need more accounts here. While related they're not the same thing. More than the sum of the parts. A few of us posting a lot doesn't make up for too many barely posting anything. The latter may consist of many biding their time, possibly hoping for more people like them to follow and boost. Unfortunately, there may be too many waiting for others to make the first move.

@CodingItWrong

The web is not in general as few businesses care, and people don't want to invest in because user base is so they just give up.

But if we don't try first, not expecting fast results, we'll never reach the breaking point.

problem.

Keep banging that wall until we get through.

@CargoBikeLife Here in was a proposal to take a section of 8th Ave from 4 to 2 lanes and improve bike/ped infrastructure. Argument against was people don't cycle and walk there. Of course they don't, it's not safe.

@pettter So if you're banned from every instance (Forgetting you can create your own Federated instance or failing that just create A-another account) how do you demonstrate your now a human being?

TBH I'm just asking out of interest now as I suspect we've reached a level of understanding.
