Not sure where you live in the US, but I see a lot of job postings for contract work, especially on startup-oriented slack channels. If you can afford to not be picky I'm sure you'd find some companies very eager to have you build some predefined piece of technology (website, database, w/e) for $25/hour or so or for a fixed bid.
No, it's not that, it's that they don't use the file manager. Linux has DigiKam and DarkTable as native options. Once you have lots of photos you don't really use the file manager as they can't filter on other metadata like GPS, focal length, stars/ratings, etc.
Wasn't the idea that the user could supply their own CSS? I vaguely remember old browsers offering an option for that.
a lot of subreddits are basically marketing departments of some corporates.

those have paid employee mods where only posts and comments favourable to corporate goals are allowed. not quite the MSM, but I'd guess corporates would want to remain within the prevailing politically correct Overton window.
The maximum app size was 10MB (OTA). The iPhone 3G had 128MB ram. So exactly my point.

Electron wouldn't even be able to run on it.
I didn't realize the author of Janet was the author of Fennel, thanks for making the connection.
I agree the entire thing sounds completely impractical and even if it can be made to work reliably, the number of suitable payloads would seem to be tiny. Maybe you could launch a 200kg billet of solid aluminum or titanium or other raw materials that could be used in space for manufacturing of components for a space station or Mars transport vehicle?

What does it mean to talk about rights? Who cares if I have the “right” to buy twitter and change the way the entire world talks to each other when I have no earthly chance of ever doing it?

Let’s talk about reality, not possibility.
Has it occurred to you that there are many Americans who view sodomy as immoral?
I like it that it includes subdirectories and doesn't just filter the current directory but I agree that including everything feels both counterintuitive and counterproductive.

If you wanted to search the entire system, that would be available from Activities (or whatever the view is called) anyway.
I'm sorry if I'm just having a hard time understanding - what specifically is your wife looking for? It looks like she's not looking to remain a teacher, but I don't think I understand what types of jobs she's applying for.

Regardless, I work for TeachersPayTeachers, and a lot of my colleagues are former teachers themselves; I'd recommend taking a look there if she's not looking to remain a teacher, and you're welcome to contact me with any questions
So create free market plugins to filter based on preferences.

Imagine: scam protection plugin. spam protection plugin. anti racism plugin.

Let users vote who gets ears. If users say they want to silence racists, by saying racists things a user ends up being blocked by all the people who want to silence all racists. Users then vote and racists know that algorithmically they cannot heard because they know the majority have silenced them. But they also aren't enraged that they are being silenced because they aren't. They're just blocked by the user base who doesn't think their words have value.

If twitter does not allow as much free speech as possible, that speech simply ends up moving to other platforms anyways. So much to all the pro censorship crowd's chagrin, their censorship isn't actually doing anything except protecting their ears from hearing what they don't want to hear, and in reality making the other side band together even more fiercely. Might as well keep all the speech and just allow people to choose their own protection.

You never have to listen to them if that's what you choose. Let people choose what gets silenced instead of letting some authority choose for you. Giving up that power has historically lead in only one direction, and I don't see why its any different in this case. Adults are not children. Let them discern what is right and what is wrong.

The only way forward is to keep free speech available, and we can keep it and have protections for those who want it, so why not?
Who are all these people going to court and getting their software licenses enforced?
99Cents is US Pricing, from the story

"when photos of its Canadian cans — which sell for $1.29 Canadian — make the rounds online, people tend to freak. A tweet that said, “If this world is coming, I don’t want to live in it,” with a photo of a $1.29 Canadian can, went viral in 2021. The company had to take to Twitter to reassure its customers, explaining the concept of exchange rates. “Don’t worry fam,” the iced tea company wrote. “We still got you.”"
I've been wanting to use the Youtube Music API to automate some personal chores (like building/cleaning playlists, etc) and was very discouraged. I actually switched to Spotify (trial) partially over it but there were a couple of other (off-topic) reasons I didn't want to stay with Spotify.

This looks like a wonderful tool! And it's not in Python :-D (sorry python people). Like others I'm a little concerned about breakage as youtube APIs churn. Does anyone know what Youtube's approach to backwards compatibility is for internal APIs? Some companies just wait until 98% of user's are on the new clients and then rip stuff out, but others I've worked with basically don't allow breaking the API except in important circumstances and they stick around deprecated for a while.
I doubt that any software company switches it main programming language and throw away all of it's gathered experience.
So it's not about quality.

You need to gather a certain critical mass of users to get popular.
Otherwise Java , JavaScript or Python would have been replaced already.

Most of the time accessibility beats performance.

What do you think why Visual Basic was so popular and why Python is now?
Come on, there’s still plenty of regulation involved. There are regulations controlling the quality of the water that’s irrigating the fields, and they’re not using raw human waste to fertilize the plants.
Ok, for groups that matter, a majority (61%) of US House Democrats formally opposed the invasion of Iraq in 2002. Even a majority of US Congress Democrats.

This is a fact of being human, and you will never “fix” it.
>Russian original plan folded entirely.

It's funny, I don't recall seeing any pro-Russian sources stating that the goal was to capture all of Ukraine. In fact, they've publicly stated their goals since the beginning, and annexing all of Ukraine was never listed. Where did this idea in the media come from, since it didn't come from Russia..?
Yeah and any initial offer is worth the paper it’s printed on.

That is not the mainstream understanding of this “offer” though and that’s the point I’m trying to make.
> And nowhere on reddit or in the media do I see a discussion of the pros and cons of a Ukrainian surrender.

Isn't this up the ukranians themselves? I mean really.

Maybe the Americans should have just given up on their revolution in order to save more lives. There is no way they could win against the might of the british empire.
The default for copyright is 'all rights reserved' though, so it would seem to me that it's in the software users best interest to hope it's enforceable, otherwise they can't use the software at all.

I hit a similar point (without the 8 figure sale of my startup) in my early 30’s. My mentor advised me to go get a copy of “Illusions” and hike up a local mountain to read it. It didn’t get me all the way to where I am today some 20 years later but it certainly changed my perspective on things in a foundational way.

Sounds like you need a challenge. Kinda like Steve Jobs walking back into Apple for $1/yr salary. Gun to the head + Guns to the deck, speaking metaphorically.

Education design is a decent area she can potentially pursue from a non-tech skills standpoint (interviews probably contingent on a masters degree). Plenty of tech companies hiring in that area.

>And by the way, twitter DID invite him to be on the board with the requirement he not get more stock.

this was a trap - both barring his ability to gain more shares, as well as putting him in a place where he can't talk about twitter publicly to the same extent as a hostile takeover.
Nike Missiles
Facebook does something similar to combat adblockers. They mangle the names of div elements to make sponsored posts indistinguishable from friends/group posts. I'm not aware of any browser plugins which are effective at blocking FB ads.

Anyone know if other websites put as much effort into anti-adblock engineering?

That’s not what nuclear deterrence protects against. If he does that there will be other forms of escalation. A Iran/North Korean style set of economic sanctions possibly (I don’t think India and China would support Putin anymore at that point). Possibly a direct confrontation over Ukraine (no fly zone or a no fly zone by proxy, giving the Ukrainians the missile defence sufficient to clear the sky). Etc.
Just because their account was created for this comment, does not mean the comment itself is worth disregarding. Throwaway accounts exist for many reasons.

You can address their point and move on. Leveling accusations unrelated to the point lowers the standard of discourse too.

Hardly matters. If an endpoint is leaking anything as sensitive as national ID + name + address, a determined attacker will have no problem with scraping it slowly or using a network of proxies to avoid rate limits.
If money isn't important, finding a good private school might provide a much more pleasant alternative. It may not be the most morally satisfying thing to transfer a good teacher from public to private education, but I went to public elementary and highschool and a private middle school and the contrast is shocking. Small class sizes, vastly better behaved kids, and a social hierarchy dictated in part by academic success, as well as much nicer school supplies and transportation, largely funded through donations from the wealthier families.
Cause that's what I want to do with my free time... install plugins operated by... who knows... to filter out the blatant racism I don't even have to see if I just don't use the website.

But... I don't use social media, so maybe I'm not the one this would appeal to.

By "tangible value" I mean that it has some kind of function. If you buy property you can live there, rent it, etc. If you buy stock in a company you now own part of that company and technically get voting power.

Not every asset has to have tangible value, they can have purely financial value. I said you technically get voting power when you buy a stock because I don't think that's why most people buy stock. I buy because I believe in the company and I believe the value will increase.

I haven't seen much tangible value from NFTs and, as this article shows, they don't have much financial value either.
All I had to do to "install" Julia on my Mac was download the .app and symlink its executable into /usr/local/bin (or wherever). Iirc using the vscode extension requires a handful of packages but they tell you the ones you need to install.
In the months before Musk started buying, Twitter stocked declined by about 40% while the S&P was up slightly. Is it reasonable to assume that TWTR would have followed the market from Jan 31 to April 1 without Musk?
I think you have it backwards. Twitter has always struggled, usually losing money, and Musk is coming in with a cash offer. He doesn't need to change anything for this to be a financial relief to shareholders. Not to mention shareholders will no longer have an interest in the company, as it will become private. There really isn't any impetus to prove Twitter's future will be better (and better than what? bad?)
It's the network effect.

Everyone is on twitter, a few of the people you want to follow are on parler. You won't bother checking parler too much.
Part of the scaling benefit comes from the efficiency of training. LSTM and other recurrent architectures take more bits per parameter and the attention mechanism doesn't optimize for context - each lstm neuron uses gating individually, where transformers attention mechanisms can use the context of an entire layer.

LSTMs with attention are super interesting, and there are some neat self-growing hopfield networks with attention that could push into transformer style efficacy and efficiency gains.
Seconded, the main draw is a better work environment and free tuition.
Let me guess. "It's still early". No it's not. "Still early" is the laggard's cope. We are in late stage of adoption, entire countries (El Salvador) have adopted Bitcoin, to what effect is up for discussion. One thing is clear, it's no longer "early".
Comparing a currency to a game just because both received criticism is wild.
I guess some people might find it cheeky or funny to build an entire software product that does something people want, and then make it impossible for most people to use by adding a silly licensing clause. I’d consider it a huge waste of time, but hey, it’s not my project.

They are. That's what a shareholder is.
FOX News and CNN have been in complete lockstep from day one, with the exception of Tucker Carlson. Sean Hannity & Anderson Cooper are ideological twins at this point. The last time CNN and FOX News have been this much in agreement, it was when we decided that an invasion of Iraq was the right thing to do in order to get rid of WMD.
> and will always vote Republican

I'm not sure I would go that far. I can easily imagine a situation where the Republican party pulls out all the stops and ensures Trump doesn't win the nomination, only for Trump to run on the MAGA party ticket. I would expect him to easily get 10% of the vote.

We didn't get any democrats who really dared test this on the left in 2020, as even Bernie (the strongest cult of personality on the left, for comparison) fell in line behind Biden.

That is to say, strong personalities, more than institutions, seem to carry the most power. Perhaps this has always been true? How much of mass media's historical confidence was due solely to Walter Kronkite?
Javascript is fine for web-based interactivity. What people object to is using JS to publish simple documents, that's what HTML and CSS is for.
Are you seriously going to grandstand whether the word "smart contract" can include non-turing-complete runtimes?

No, Bitcoin does not have smart contracts. It has a limited scripting environment that you can't do much with other than colored coins, and we've all seen how that's played out.
Ethereum is an anti-CC bribe. I get how traders might not have realized this, but the principled people who were drawn to Bitcoin should have realized this a long time ago.
Ah, interesting... yes, the search is indeed dog-slow. If it's a filename match, it comes up fairly quickly because it's been indexed, but if I pass in a path, or parts of one, then it doesn't come up with anything at all.

edit: why am i getting downvoted?
I keep seeing this "eternal six months away" FUD, but no one wants to admit the devs delivered on the Beacon Chain which has been running smoothly for 1.5 years, and the Merge testnets are working quite well. Bitcoin maximalists are out there all day grousing about made-up deadlines promised by strawmen and laundered through hearsay. It has nothing to do with reality.
When one nation causes another to suffer famine, poverty, and a devastating epidemic, that should pretty much qualify as a form of war.
Would that not have been true about Truth Social? They would have had enough users on day 1 to get network effects, but it hasn't happened. You could blame technical issues, but as I understand, Trump isn't even on the platform and neither is Fox News. So why would a Musk Twitter clone work any better?
It means they worked on it and acknowledge it now. The fundamental problem is still very much there.
> nothing much has changed fundamentally over a year.

If the CEO of a company leaving doesn't count as a fundamental change, then I don't know what does.
> The only use case we really have is illegal activity.

But isn't that enough? If we refuse to get rich from investing in ransom futures we have no-one to blame than ourselves.

At least that's how I read those typical victory lap posts by crypto winners. Or by proclaimed crypto winners desperately trying to extend the pyramid. Yes, I'll happily skip out on ransom future wealth.
Their fair share of what? Income that they haven't actually received?
Counterpoint: I am fairly certain that a large portion of financial news is machine-generated today. Machine-generated blogspam is also extremely prevalent and edging into the “news” space.
> If it's not a government agency, it doesn't get any real info.

I don't think rsync is worried about government prying.
how can you read what they did in Bucha (raping, torturing, execution style murders in the street) and say you don't think they're targetting civilians. That was a warning from Putin to Ukrainians about what happens if you fight back and don't surrender 100%
All I can say, if they have a working system, just make power and sell the power.

Seems every time something like this comes up they can`t produce power and sell it for money, but they want you to invest money in them. If they are anything why not just self-invest.
So a form of DRM on the APIs themselves? It wouldn't be easy. How would you determine if the request is originating from an official YT developed app (iOS, Android, ...) or client (YouTube.com); or a non-approved client?

I suppose you can have a system which works like TOTP except for machine-to-machine. Although it would probably be broken since anything on the client side can be disassembled. The UX would likely suffer as a result as well.
You're effectively saying that Google failed, therefore nobody can succeed. This suggests that Google threw all its might and resources behind Google+ and still came up short. I don't think that's true, but even if they did, throwing sufficient resources at the problem was not the issue, the problem seemed to be poorly understood within Google. They seemed to be building "Facebook but Google-branded, but also somehow not Facebook" and then when it was struggling early on instead of trying to fix it, they just went "Ok all Google users have a Google+ now" and acted like they were blowing up.

There is a very interesting counterexample. A company that Facebook saw as enough of a threat that they bit the bullet and spent what was at the time an eyewatering amount of money on a company with a product that was built by a tiny team - Instagram.

We can't ever know what would have become of Instagram had it not been acquired, maybe it would just be the aspirational selfies-and-travel-pics app or maybe it would grow and become something altogether different. But it is certainly clear to me that the failure of Google+ does not mean someone can't build a company that could grow to rival Facebook. They may seem dominant in social media now, but companies which have been completely dominant in their field have been known to totally collapse - remember Nokia?
Eh, they're definitely not great, but I think a lot of is is different expectations of the developers and the players. It's in beta, and the dev team treats it like such and treats the players as both beta testers and the QA department.

Sometimes that results in the players wondering "what could possibly thought this was okay to submit? Did they even check it at all?" just like every QA department since the beginning probably has occasionally.

The real question will be whether they actually change that when they release 1.0, which is supposedly in a year or so.
I don't agree with you at all, for the reasons I've set out.

If you stopped reading after hearing that super priorities exist, and believed that their existence was proof that labour regularly defrauds capital, you'd have very much not understood anything.

Honestly, almost all of your posts here feel like they're exercises in ignoring content. I'm done.
This was surprising to us too - like, we knew there would be bugs, but there were so many. We had a particularly successful Amaranth that was basically a free standing ecosystem.

I think it's hard to say whether idiocy/hatred is more dangerous in the spotlight or in the shadows.
The US and the EU repeatedly told Japan to stop it's invasion. Japan did have some cassus belli initially but after several atrocities happened the response grew much louder - specifically after a pastor was killed by a stray bomb and the photograph made it's way back to western audiences with an accounting from his daughter.
