I can understand why high-functional individuals or even the parents dealing with moderate cases are afraid of the stigma but the whole "it is not a desease" is very harmful for families dealing with more severe cases: it is always taxing for the family and often very debilitating for the individual.

My 5 yers old son wouldn't be able to attend a regular school without 3 years of expensive therapy and a dedicated tutor in class so the last thing I want is an excuse for my health insurance to deny assistance. The safety network a lot worse than what is available for dawn's without this PC BS.

Why do you consider 170000 law abiding citizens as potential suspects? That's an extremely paranoid approach to law enforcement, especially when according to basic criminal law, these citizens are supposed to be considered innocent by default.
Mass automatic surveillance of this reverses the idea of innocent until proven guilty without actually aknowleding it. That's scary
That’s fair, thanks.

What I was trying to say, without saying it, is that rasism is not what the cultural Marxist are trying to sell - “power + privilege”.

Assuming USA: If you're a single founder with no investors, the compliance costs of a single-member LLC taxed as a disregarded entity are tiny, a few hundred dollars per year (depending on the state). That limits your liability, might help deal with some clients, and might make it possible to recognize a sale of the whole project as a capital gain instead of ordinary income.
Disclaimer: This is not legal advice.

Good question. An American court won’t enforce it, but any decent-sized entity is, for all practical purposes, subject to decisions by ECJ (and potentially by individual EU countries).

If an EU resident case is brought to ECJ, they’ll almost certainly have jurisdiction, so the question is what ECJ would rule. I wouldn’t bet my compliance strategy on the ECJ deciding that an EU resident opted out of GDPR by misstating their residency (intentionally or not). One can reasonably assume that ECJ would see requiring users to explicitly state their location as a mitigating factor, but not that it would eliminate the need to comply, nor the opportunity for EU litigation claiming the same.

Again, this is not legal advice, but I’ve actually read the GDPR and and been part of a large company working through how to comply with it.

I wrote Finger and developed the supporting database to provide this
information in traditional human terms -- real names and places. Because
I preferred to talk face to face rather than through the computer or
telephone, I put in the feature that tells how long the terminal had been
idle, so that I could assess the likelihood that I would find them there
if I walked down the hall.

The program was an instant hit. Some people asked for the Plan file
feature so that they could explain their absence or how they could be
reached at odd times, so I added it. I found it interesting that this
feature evolved into a forum for social commentary and amusing
observations.

It's amazing that the core features of a modern social network were invented so far back.

I wonder what the world would be like today if Unix-like systems had gone more mainstream. Maybe ISPs would include a Unix account on their servers where you could set up your .plan file and things like 'finger' and 'talk' and regular email would fill the space, in a completely distributed and open manner, that Facebook and other social networks currently do.

How do you expect that the ECJ or individual EU countries would enforce their ruling against our hypothetical American company without the use of the American courts? I presume that if they're blocking the EU, then they have no revenue or assets there.

And how do you reconcile this with Facebook's public statement that they won't comply for those not covered? They obviously make money doing stuff that the GDPR prohibits; but they're target #1 and they even have EU presence, much more exposed than our hypothetical.

Depends on what you need. Gitea has no CI like Gitlab.

Besides that it is a lot less resource hungry.
Nice usage of fonts in the beginning of the article.
I'd like to read the article - unfortunately the link shows only two paragraphs.
We used to use Gitea, compare to Gitlab:

- uses less resources, a 512MB VM is enough for a small team. Meanwhile Gitlab requires at least 4GB IIRC.
- is easier to setup, just a single binary file.

Everything else, it can't compete with Gitlab.

I'm using it as my personal Git server, works pefectly for 1 user.
Just started trying out Gogs. How come Gitea felt the need to fork it?
I would like to see a full-fledged docker installer something to the effect of the discourse installer that I can put on something like digital ocean or my own machine, handles https in an opinionated way (let's encrypt), and integrates with popular email services like sendgrid or mailgun (with generous free tiers).
Your "bike mode" point is one I hadn't thought of, and I find interesting.

For the record, I don't hate on longboards in any way. My point was that it seems that eboards take away from the actual skating experience. It's not a matter of doing tricks and such, but more about the act of skating. The balance of body with the board against the force your body exerts, the feeling of the momentum gained by said force, the ground feel between you and the board in combination with the pushing foot with ground, and the control and freedom that comes with it. My feeling is that electric skateboards take away from the feeling that comes with skating, which is what makes the experience for most who do. But from observation it also seems to handicap some (not all), seeing that many appear to be off balance and unable to really control their electric boards when needing to come to full/immediate stops.

But again I do like your counter point of it being a mode of transportation that's like a bike in terms of speed and energy costs, but allows for the rider the convenience of picking up and moving along
It could potentially be the result of a more lean (or non existing) organization. It takes resources to host such a platform.
I've heard one interesting hypothesis concerning the paradox that the poor tend to have more children than the rich. You would typically expect the reverse. The poor, unable to provide for more children, should have fewer. And, according to this hypothesis, that's what is typically the case historically. The major cause for the reversal is the consumerist ethos. Those with more money choose to spend it on things rather than children because when "keeping up with the Jones'" consumerist values are in play, having a child is a relative loss. You are much better off buying more stuff.

I've been using Gogs for a team of 40 people for over two years. This is the second time I've heard about Gitea, and I know it is a popular fork of Gogs. Can anyone sell me on why it's better than Gogs and why I should switch?
The owner of the Gogs repo doesn't accept pull requests that won't fit his roadmap or quality standards, he is also not the most responsive during times this is why some people created Gitea. I am still using Gogs personally.
Feature list is here: https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/

It's basically most of the features of GitHub; if you want the rest of GitLab's features you'll have to set them up yourself.

Still, it's hard to beat free and lightweight.
Gogs + Drone pairs very well :)
As a native German speaker: git is not spoken with English pronunciation, so Gitea, also without English pronunciation.
They're doing the SPA wrong.
At some point the to-become Gitea developers felt that there were too few (or too slow) pull requests merged into Gogs. So they forked the project.

For those curious, I'm a sysadmin, and I used Gitea to deploy a Git server for a very small project with just 8 users.

It was a lot simpler than setting up a full blown Gitlab instance. It is just one binary to get running and that's it.

The 8 users are instantly familiar with the interface because of its similarity to GitHub.

We even have other users who are not contributors read the source through Gitea interface, rather than cloning the repos and reading locally.

It's a pleasant experience for small scale needs.
It's not a public service, it's self-hosted.

You should look into PLATO, as I now am (despite having heard of a fractional form of it due to software offered by TI for my first home computer, the TI-99/4A that I received in 1982). Amazing social network tech, not to mention computer learning which was it's core focus, in the '60s and '70s out of the mid-west. I am reading an excellent book on the history, "The Friendly Orange Glow."
I wonder if we would be better off sending stuff by rail, at least for Europe we are connected by land to China.
Yup, I had access to these on my shell that was given to me by my dial-in ISP.

I think what killed these services was a potential for abuse and spam. If you have your name/details attached to an e-mail account, it's super easy for marketers to scrap that, and then spam you if you meet certain criteria.

Centralised services (with all my distaste towards them) prevent that, because they block spammers, and limit access to such data quite nicely.

For a similar reason I think many people stick with gmail - because it's centralised, it can use ML to filter out spam much better than any other mailing services. It's also more secure - the Google's budget on maintaining security of their services is far higher than that of any other provider.
The Unreasonable Bias Against Compound Growth
Gitea is incredibly fast.
Hmm, for some reasons I remember the SNES version and the Sega Genesis are identical.
Was trying to figure out why it looked almost identical to Gogs, until I read it was a fork.

So, what does this give me over using the main Gogs? I see it is managed differently, but what features does it offer that are not in Gogs?
"Never change a running system", right? Stay with Gogs, it's not worth the hassle. Here are some differences Gitea users colleced https://github.com/go-gitea/website/issues/40 but many of them were implemented in Gogs as well since then. We're using Gogs at work and didn't see a need to change.
No idea about Electron but I am used to desktop application especially in Qt, With Qt Quick (QML + Javascript) I have been able to make a cross platform application that runs on all desktop (Linux, Windows, MacOS) and all mobile (Android, iOS).

If i'm not mistaken, gogs is managed by one person. Twice in the past few years he stopped being active for a few months. The first time a bunch of contributors started a fork to continue working on it and be community driven rather than managed by one person. When the gogs author started being active again, the features from the fork ended up being implemented in gogs (the wiki and a few other stuff) so the fork was killed. The second time it happened the fork (gitea) was created again with no intent for it to be temporary this time.
A handful of lines added to the prescribed docker-compose file (https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/install-with-docker/) and you're actually there.

You would probably want to wrap it with nginx outside of docker-compose; attaching Certbot to it is thankfully very pleasant (https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-secu...).

To integrate with SendGrid, you'd set the app.ini (https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/config-cheat-sheet/) to point at SendGrid's SMTP relay (https://sendgrid.com/docs/API_Reference/SMTP_API/getting_sta...).

Does growing up poor harm brain development?
If a human is biased, there are individuals whose attitude can be corrected, and if necessary pressure can be put on individuals to correct the situation (politically or otherwise).

With an algorithm, you show the inputs, show the outputs and say “no bias, it’s all automated”.

Look, part of the problem might be that at seed stage the optimal short term strategy might be to be biased. If series A,B investors are sexist or racist, then that’s going to make things harder for those companies to progress. An algorithm might pick up on that, particularly if it can find features correlated with sex, race, or some other factor that investors may be biased against.

As to your point regarding the average VC. It’s possible that selecting companies at random might do better than the average VC. I suspect if we did, the societal outcomes might be better.

(This is experience from this year.)
I've not used either, but reading their forking announcement (https://blog.gitea.io/2016/12/welcome-to-gitea/), it seems the main difference is that Gogs is maintained by a single person and Gitea by a team of people.

The comments on that post suggest that Gitea is more actively developed, at least shortly after the fork, but I haven't checked to see if that's still the case.

The core feature of a modern social network was invented like 100kya. Doing this stuff on a computer is just a straightforward application. Email is mail. Chat/talk is talk. Finger is a bulletin board. All of those showed up within a few years of serious multiple user systems.
I find the discourse intall approach to be outdated, to say the least. It reminds me of myself tinkering with docker for the first time. Just provide me a docker image and deployment examples for compose and kubernetes.
Indeed. Quoting from link below (February 1, 2000):

> President Clinton claims that the recently signed trade agreement with China “creates a win-win result for both countries” (Clinton 2000, 9). He argues that exports to China “now support hundreds of thousands of American jobs,” and that “these figures can grow substantially with the new access to the Chinese market the WTO agreement creates” (Clinton 2000, 10).

But it then prophetically goes on to argue:

> China’s entry into the WTO, under PNTR with the U.S., will lock this relationship into place, setting the stage for rapidly rising trade deficits in the future that would severely depress employment in manufacturing, the sector most directly affected by trade. China’s accession to the WTO would also increase income inequality in the U.S.

I've been running Gitea for a long while now, basically since the fork occured. It's mostly me with some other small users for course work.

It's a very pleasant and lightweight alternative to Github that I can only seriously recommend to anyone considering hosting their own Git Server. Recent update even brought mentions and reactions from Github over.
