> No one is saying the Nazis thing is “a conspiracy theory.” They’re saying they don’t care. There are neo-nazi elements in every country’s military, especially in Europe

These are not 'Neonazi elements'. They are actual Nazi brigades comprised of actual nazis who know their theory, who think that they are ubermensch and everyone else either should be enslaved or killed. They are not your average skinhead occasionally attacking immigrants.

And yeah, the media is now past saying that Nazis are a conspiracy theory - that was until a few months ago. Because the Nazis were unrepentant in their Nazism, now the media is whitewashing them.

Weird. I also have 'showdead' set to on, and I would say that for 80% of the banned accounts I see, it is immediately obvious why they're banned, because it's right there in the dead comment.

Another 10% are 'huh, this is an insightful substantive comment, why is this person banned?', and I usually find it a couple of pages deep in their comment history; usually something along the lines of someone who writes substantively on a number of issues but has one that they just spew insane malicious vitriol about every time it comes up.

And finally, yeah, there's 10% or so that seem to have been banned for no discernible reason and don't even seem to be aware that they're banned.
Yeah COSMIC will resolve this kind of issue once and for all. The current setup is very dependent on a person not tampering with expected features and packages.

That's your own personal bias - 'either/or'. There are many other sources than 'Russia'. The world is not bipolar like in Anglosphere.

No. 'The intelligence community' as a term is used to include the retired personas now working in think tanks, in order to give them authority. Those people's papers from think tanks cant be referenced or cited as belonging to actual intelligence agencies after they retired. But if you say 'intelligence community', you can cite them all you want...
If it were truly "free" then it wouldn't need to "obligate" you to do anything.
You'll see advertisements for guns and ammo on what we call 'billboards' on the road (it's an advertisement on a flat surface about 30ft long I'd estimate, and maybe 10ft high. usually along the highways). We also get these ads in the marketing flyers you get in the mail, or see them in magazine print ads.

Gun ownership here is a bit more of a formalized process, so in general if you're clear to purchase one we'll trust you with a firearm, with few exceptions. The background check has a finite window after which it fails open, then if there is a rejection after the fact, an agency will show up to collect the firearm.

I could buy a shotgun while shopping for grocery items in the same store [0]. Also, the place up the road that sells fishing bait and hats and things also sells pistols, rifles, bows, hunting supplies etc. If you ask to hold one they just hand it to you, unloaded with a trigger lock or zip tie through the action of course.

- Wake up ~6am and go for a 3 mile walk with my dogs

- Ice Bath and Sauna : I like to spend about 15-20 min in the 180°+F sauna and then about 1-5 min in the 40-60°F ice bath (temp. varies depending on how much ice I put in. 60 lbs. of ice usually can get it to 40°F)

- Swim a little bit

- Make some coffee : usually a basic Aeropress or Clever Dripper coffee with some grass-fed milk half and half / bulletproof style (blended with MCT oil and grass-fed butter)

- Go to the gym for about 1 hour : 1000 m. rowing, 10 min using weighted sled, stretching / mobility exercise, strength training (barbell, dumbbell, bodyweight - pull ups, chin ups, push ups)

- Shower, eat some breakfast (usually about 4-5 eggs or a chicken breast)

- Stretch, massage gun

- Nap

- Play some guitar

- Eat some lunch (ribeye steak and some greens)

- Chill out (watch some TV, do some light reading)

- Walk the dogs (usually around 1-2 miles or play some fetch)

- Dinner (chicken breast or salmon and greens)

- Bed

Usually my weekday routine is very similar - I work from home and do a bit more condescend combo of exercising my dogs, going to the gym, ice bath/swim/sauna during breaks from working

The main (only?) value of Medium from my perspective was that I occasionally cross-posted there when I had something of general interest that 1.) I wanted some broader discovery and/or 2.) It seemed to suggest (however incorrectly) a greater gravitas than a personal blog for linking from another site.

Maybe substack is similar. And maybe it's better at monetization though I don't really care and I suspect serious monetization is a real power law thing anyway. I'm not convinced personally about posting to substack rather than keeping on an independent blog.
In general I agree, but if your partner isn’t used to that type of work they don’t really get it. Nor do they understand how a simple question can ruin an entire train of thought.

Reading the marketing spiel my impression is that they've upgraded the hardware and the SDK but still haven't figured out what it will be useful for. So they sell it as a platform and tell industries to figure it out themselves. When I worked in digital agency we used to get sent a lot of experimental devices like these and asked to partner with brands to make cool demos. Gadgets that did really impressive stuff (haptics, holograms, AR, gaze tracking, wearables). We came up with cool novelties but I don't think any of them ever had mainstream success.

Yes, which is a good thing. Why not create wealth that the citizenry can take advantage of?

Politicians in your world would never see any community voter permanence, because if everyone is a resident, everyone is effectively a transient voter to them. You would only need to kowtow and keep them happy for the 6 months prior to the election.

The communities have no anchors…except for the corporations that own all the property. They would have all the power and that sounds horrible to me.

At one point I thought that Substack did what Medium should have done. Then I realized they launched many years apart, and probably if Medium had tried the Substack approach, it wouldn't have succeeded.

I also find it interesting that Substack is now migrating toward an app approach ("read all your articles in this app!"), which is basically what Medium was from the beginning. I have wondered how much the Substack team intended this from the beginning, and if the newsletter angle was largely for differentiation ("what makes you guys different from Medium?").

Also, in case anyone was not aware, Medium's founder/CEO (Ev William) departed this summer. [1] I wonder what the circumstances were, who owned what share, etc.

It wasn't worth a shot. It was a scam from day zero.

Even the best case scenario of the tech was a lie. There is no way that at any price that anything remotely like the original vision would be possible. Simply put, the optics and physics never could have worked, and anyone with any knowhow in the space knew so and said so loudly.

This is not a legit attempt that failed. It's a scam that's still going on.

Don't get me wrong, Stable Diffusion & co are incredibly impressive. I'm using NovelAI image generation for a project I'm working on, so it's already useful to me as more than just a toy, even. It is absolutely a massive technological step change.

But NovelAI and Stable Diffusion both have limitations. It's nearly impossible to generate two different specified characters, much less specify two characters interacting in a certain way. For NovelAI, common/popular art styles are available, but you can't use the style of an artist with ~200 pictures. (Understandable, given how the AI works technically, but still a shortcoming from a user's perspective.) Both are awful at anything that requires precision, like a website design or charts (as shown in the article). And, as most people know by now, human hands and feet are more miss than hit.

People are extrapolating the initial, enormous step change as a consistent rate of change of improvement, just like what was done with self-driving cars. People are handwaving SD's current limitations away; "it just needs more training data" or "it just needs different training data." That's what people said about autonomous vehicles; it just needed more training data, and then it would be able to drive in snow and rain, or be able to navigate construction zones. Except $100 billion of training data later, these issues still haven't been resolved.

It'd be awesome if I were wrong and these issues were resolved. Maybe a version of SD or similar that lets me describe multiple characters in a scene performing different actions is right around the corner. But until I actually see it, I'm not assuming that its capabilities are going to move by leaps and bounds.
> Ah yes the spooky “mainstream media” which seems always to somehow say the opposite of what you believe

That 'spooky' mainstream media lied about babies in incubators in Iraq, then nonexistent WMDs, then about freedom-loving Libyan rebels, then freedom-loving Syrian rebels, and now they are telling other things in the latest foreign policy project.

Why the hell are you people even giving them any credibility, leaving aside actually believing them? Where does the buck stop?

The corporate media not lying about matters that do not touch the economy, military or the foreign policy does NOT make them trustworthy in other matters.

> why haven’t all the other people who have been discussing Russian crimes

She was not fired for 'discussing'. She was fired for an outrageous lie that she produced as the person responsible for the official position of the government.

> Also your evidence of Ukraine lying about war crimes is the firing of a woman who lied about war crimes?

Amazing how you contort actual evidence of lying by an administration from the highest levels to a proof of it being honest.

Mental gymnastics. Apparently that's what enables you people to believe your establishments.
Is this really true? I thought that Substack allowed for discovery because you could see what other publications someone followed. So if you saw a smart comment on a popular substack, you could then click on the author and discover what else she was reading. They obviously also promote rising stars, but IDK what it takes to become a rising star in the first place.

Not sure what prompted that kind of snide response. I think most ThinkPad keyboards are lovely to use. All I pointed out is that millimetres and fractions of millimetres are very easy to detect and that the travel difference between the most fancy mechanical switch and even the maligned butterfly switch is only about 3mm. That is to say that travel distance is not the most important metric in what makes a keyboard nice or unpleasant to use.
Right? It seemed like the author's premise was that the AI generators should do a good job with this prompt, but my expectation is solidly that they wouldn't. So then when the results met my expectation, the only confusing thing was the author's tone about it.
A bit of an aside but I thought the practice of using drugs in an application or tool names had fallen out of favor? Remember Amphetamine?
> you can just get a Simula One VR

except they aren't shipping yet .... I'm a big fan but you really can't count it as a comparison until its really in production. They have barely assembled prototype units yet let alone got the tech fully working.

And even then, its a completely different thing. The magic leap is true AR with real world pass through and full hand tracking. Whether its any good or not I don't know but the use cases they are targeting - surgeons etc are not going to strap a SimlarVR to their head.

Let's be realistic. There's only two GUI frameworks on the Linux desktop right now. GTK4 and KF5/Qt. The GUI libraries in the Rust space have been evolving over the last couple years. Soon you're going to start seeing applications written in Druid, Slint, Iced, Tauri, and Dioxus. Former Qt employees have established a company and business model around Slint. Druid and Iced are making excellent progress. Tauri and Dioxus are alternatives to Electron.
The one thing I don't like about Substack's design is the popup trying to get an email address. Its annoying to always have to click "let me read it first" instead of just being able to read the post.

Because of that particular dark pattern to trick people into giving Substack their email addresses, I wouldn't call their design unobtrusive but it is nonetheless still better than most of the modern web.

These things seem to come and go in cycles. In a few years Substack will probably end up just like Medium as they try to "cross the chasm" - Typical VC-funded company incentives. There is already a lot of low-quality spam on the platform.

You don't need $50-100M in funding and (soon) hundreds of employees to run a simple newsletter site. This only forces the company to over-engineer and push intrusive monetization to make meaningful investor returns. Just like Medium, Quora, etc. These were great simple products, until the pressure to justify their valuation and return money to investors ruined them.
> You must treat your nodes like cattle not pets.

Do not cite the deep magic to me. I was there when it was created. Really. I know all about Randy's "cattle and pets" metaphor, and automated responses, and not nursing individual nodes back to health, and I had already accounted for those in my comment. I did mention that I'd been on a team responsible for that many nodes, right? <checks> Yep, I did.

> If a node fails, automation kicks in and re-bootstraps it.

You think we didn't have such systems at Facebook? Yes, we did. And yet, amazingly, there were various kinds of failure or degradation that they didn't always catch or respond to correctly. These kinds of systems only work for syndromes that have already been seen, understood, and coded for. When you have a hundred thousand nodes or more, some nodes regularly fail in novel ways or get stranded in weird automation states. That requires human time to sort out.

> you are just invoking automation to do everything for you

Maybe that works for teeny-tiny clusters. I hope for your sake that it does. For 10K-node clusters, it's not uncommon for that "rare" condition to occur a few times, requiring a human to prod things along a bit. Yes, the automation does 99% of the work, but 1% can still add up pretty quickly.

> We do not expect

Only time will tell whether your expectation is realistic. Maybe it is, at your scale. It wouldn't have been at the scale I worked at, which seems a lot closer to what the OP is about.

Given their past history I have no idea if this is real or not but I will say its exciting to see the VR/AR/XR space heating up again. If it is real then these will definitely push the boundaries of the form factors currently available and that is great to see.

Having been a VR enthusiast for a while, I will say I am very confident there is something valuable in it. Halving the weight and doubling the resolution of the headsets is within sight and going to truly expand the range of possible / viable applications. What emerges in the end as truly valuable applications is an unknown but that's exactly why its fun to be around during these stages of the tech evolution.
I completely agree with you. While I don't have a solution, I have a related question on next.js. (Shortlisted next.js since I liked the overall design). Can someone help? Posting here since its related.

Background: Primarily a backend developer. I had used java swing and struts long ago. Played around with vanilla react and next.js (through vercel). I had a look at the various samples provided by vercel. But I struggle with the syntax and hence finding it very difficult to write something from scratch. How do you guys write a new application in next.js?. Do you hand code it?. Also, is CSM a must ? Most of the examples in vercel are simple applications. How does one design a slightly advanced user interface from scratch?
What are you basing your opinion on? I’m basing it on things that I personally witnessed, not general hype. From what I can tell is that they failed to make their prototype (which garnered investment from VCs) into a real product that is miniaturized and manufacturable at reasonable cost.

Scam do happen but here it is not the case. WSJ would pounce on that.
