up6nf1 | This app is imo better than all the other social media platforms to learn about things you're interested in and have small interactions with like minded people. But often it seems to be quite empty here except for the bigger subreddits maybe. | because people (especially women) hear about all the negativity reddit provides and want to stay away | 30 | ask |
up6s8t | I'm learning about querying data from APIs with Javascript. I'd like to create my own at some point.
However, a gap in my knowledge is where does the data that appears on the JSON files come from and how is it managed?
My gut instinct is that the data is held in a MySQL database and a serverside language like PHP cre... | Not exactly. Mostly correct except it isn’t written to a file. There are functions and methods in every language that can convert data of one type to another data type. In this case, it’s converting arrays and objects into a json object.

up76pu | What are some reasons why you got banned, whether temporarily or permanently from a subreddit? | I got permanently banned from r/sustainable for linking a Harvard study that says that GMOs arent bad for you | 60 | ask |
up76pu | What are some reasons why you got banned, whether temporarily or permanently from a subreddit? | I got banned from a leftist sub for calling out a mod for being racist. They were one of those idiots that think you can't be racist to white people. They were saying that racism requires power to oppress, when, in reality, hate towards someone based on skin color is racism. All racism is wrong and it should be called ... | 60 | ask |
up76pu | What are some reasons why you got banned, whether temporarily or permanently from a subreddit? | I joined a subreddit and, without a shadow of doubt, i did not read the rules.

up77g6 | I try to specialize on being an iOS developer, but one of my friends is trying to learn both because he says that he can earn more money that way. Is that true? | I don’t think it’s super common for a single person to work on both platforms at once; all the mobile teams I’ve heard of split developers by platform.
That’s not to say it’s impossible. I could see a small startup needing someone to do both. | 30 | CSCareerQuestions |
up77g6 | I try to specialize on being an iOS developer, but one of my friends is trying to learn both because he says that he can earn more money that way.

The Wikipedia article doesn’t say that the first king of Chimor came from the *west*, just that he came by sea.
