"There's no stress if getting fired is something that doesn't bother you"

Sure there is, long painful meetings where you go over your work for the last 30 days sounds miserable regardless of if you care about the outcome.

You also might lose your severance package.

While you can't say no thanks, if put in that situation by my employer I'd do the bare minimum and start lining up interviews with the tens of recruiters that message me daily (as I'm sure is the case for anyone with twitter on their resume)

I am going by this definition of wealth https://www.thefreedictionary.com/wealth:
An abundance of valuable material possessions or resources; riches.

> It’s really potential wealth

That's like saying that potential energy doesn't count as energy. If we extract our resources to create "wealth" that prevents us from doing something substantially more valuable in the future, we didn't create wealth. We destroyed it. But collectively we have such a short term mindset that this is hard to see.
As a big twitter user that badge already has quite the status symbol
> This is normal for a community. These statistics naturally fall in line with the Pareto Principle, and the concept of the vital few.

The Pareto Principle is just a rule-of-thumb, it's not an actual law of anything, and is just an expression of power law dynamics. It's true that power law dynamics are common in most online communities, but 97% of content being created by 25% of users is staggering, a much stronger power law than most other forums. This is a highly engaged, medium-sized community (though I realize the nature of the platform (followers, algorithmic priority, etc) means that there are multiple overlapping sets of communities rather than a single community, and that these communities often vehemently grief each other.)

> You are confusing posting on Twitter with using it. The vast majority are lurkers who still consume information and then regurgitate that information in real life on other platforms. The statistics you provided don't paint an accurate picture of the "usefulness" of Twitter in modern public discourse.

Only 23% [1] of Americans use Twitter. Compare that to 81% of Americans using Youtube and 69% of Americans using Facebook. Only 13% of US Adults [2] get their news from Twitter, while 31% from Facebook and 22% from Youtube. Americans are the largest users of Twitter, followed by the Japanese. It's main significance in the public discourse derives from the 69% of American journalists [2] that use Twitter as part of their job, and this is not "public" discourse as much as journalist discourse.

> Do you have a better popular example of a modern day forum?

I know very few people in my real life that actually use Twitter. The ones that do are mostly in subcultures with a large presence on Twitter. My family doesn't use Twitter, most Twitter employees I know don't use Twitter. My partner only uses Twitter because she networks with other artists on it but doesn't actually use it for news or politics. Most of my friends don't use Twitter. Most people in my network know of Twitter only through quoted reports in news articles.

I think, and unless you have statistics to show otherwise, that the idea of a "modern day forum" role for Twitter lies only in the minds of highly engaged Twitter users. I mean I'm a highly engaged user of HN and I would be quite sad if it went away and actively fight to maintain its culture. I've watched a lot of online communities rot over time so I understand what it's like to watch your community change. But I don't pretend that HN or other online communities I'm part of are somehow a vital resource for all of humanity. The only noteworthy thing about Twitter's community is the number of journalists and celebrities talking to each other on it. That's all.

Yeah but I feel like "work on twitter" is way less of a .... shall we say noble/socially fulfilling job. I'd value working on sending people to mars (not to live, just to do a walk on it), it'd make me part of something historic. One day people would write books and make documentaries about the work done to make it happen, and even if I weren't featured for the entire rest of my life if I could tell people "I worked on the software for the Mars shuttle" or whatever and have them go "Oh cool!". Hell, even before it succeeds I think it'd have social capital with the right crowd: pushing boundaries to put someone on mars is a cool job....

Twitter on the other hand... "Oh I work at twitter doing software". That's.... nowhere near as exciting or epic a thing to tell people that you do.

So he might have a harder time finding smart people willing to work for less than market rates at twitter compared to finding them for SpaceX and Tesla

You should consider changing the name to something that isn't single trail-specific.
Here's why I believe it is inevitable...

It's already out there. On people's local computers and soon their mobile devices. People are tinkering with it at warp speed. This point addresses that it technically cannot be stopped.

I don't expect it to be possible to detect that the art is AI-generated. This becomes further impossible when using a personal input image as well as many follow-up edits or composite works. It blends into normal image creation. The only way to prove that it's not AI-generated is to record in-progress "human art" as is sometimes done in art contests, but this isn't reasonable to legally require of every single piece of art to be created.

You can't enforce what you can't detect.
I printed and framed an iphone photo of my niece 11x17 as a Christmas gift for my mother last year. It would not have been better taken with professional camera equipment.
I am an amateur pianist and have both a real piano and a digital piano at home. My kids gravitate towards the real piano. It doesn't have to be turned on or plugged in. It has no screen or volume control. It's a physical thing they can manipulate, a real instrument. All 3 of them use it for music, whereas the digital piano gets treated more like a toy because it makes funny sounds.

I, on the other hand, play almost exclusively on the digital piano, because the real one is so loud and I have an adult's fear of irritating others with repetitive practice and being judged for playing poorly. Playing in private with headphones has allowed me to learn songs I never would have mastered if I'd had to practice them in the living room where everyone could listen.

Nothing feels like a real piano, but I saved and bought a Nord Grand digital piano, which has real hammers (not just a facsimile) and feels about as close as technology can get you today. https://www.nordkeyboards.com/products/nord-grand

Similar to the blog post, i enjoyed the Internet on its transition from acedemia to the general population. Everyone was smart, information was new and exciting and innovation was around every corner.

We have to look at smartphones and what transitions took place in the ecosystem around 2007/2008 that caused a spike in population and in inferior quality data and deformed emotions.

Internet hardware up to 2007 was resilient and durable. Smartphones never received updates and were disposible soon after purchase.

We saw the evolution from 3G (wap browsing was popular) to 4G (new LTE bands were added on that rollout, which obsoleted the inventory of phones at a rapid pace). If you wanted signal for dialtone, you upgraded phones.

Skipping the minutia, all of the surplus 3G and 4G equipment went to developing countries, so now, there are million of out-of-date (security compromised) devices (android, IOS minicomputers) that make a polluted ecosystem that did not exist prior.

Further speculation says the cost of entry to the Internet was probably a little higher prior to smartphones. Though, browsing on a personal computer could be done on 486 computers that upgraded operating system for years/decades. Mobile devices never had that luxury. They were landfill trash by design. No OS updates, OS upgrades or hardware upgrades. Desktop computers all had those luxuries.

Petabytes of inferior quality data were not the ecosystem or etiquette prior to disposible devices. We also did not see (1) terabyte storage devices until 2007 either, so cloud storage was gigs and gigs of harddrive space (which is now a security faux pas).

It wasn't perfect prior to 2007, but top-level domains in the original design of the Internet made .coms, .orgs, .nets, .govs, etc distinguishable, much like sections of a library. Now every top-level domain is just a generic .com with ads and commerce (ambiguity at its finest).

Read-up on network architecture and its easy to see that "low-population networks" are possible post-2020, easier than ever (dedicated satellite networks, petabyte array MESH networks, Software defined network infrastructures with unlit fiber, etc).

I did SEO starting around 2010 and laughed at how 3rd world relevance (a billion illiterates) manipulated search engines in ways the 1st world just wouldn't make time for, so I skipped the decade that burned the author out. I was aware of the irrelevance and insignificant cultures that still maintain their irrelevance in 2022.

I still read about a million words per week, but have the insight to skip tabloid data, never drowned in social media and have no use for inferior emotions (plus really good adblockers and a shortlist of websites that still contain 0% inferior emotions, just like the information superhighway that author eluded to).

The sections in the library are just much smaller nowadays :)
I don't recall; probably. This is part of Steinway's business, even today.

Gould's concert career was rather short anyway, as he—quite famously—vastly preferred to record and manage post-production, than to perform. To my knowledge, he didn't elect to use Steinway so much in that setting.

Yes, uprights are definitely affected, in some cases even worse than a grand piano, because the soundboard is abutted to a wall/heat register/whatever with an upright. (Never put pianos near radiators or heat registers!)

I see where this comment is coming from and partially agree with it.

A thought experiment I've put myself through is would I still be pursuing software if I has unlimited access to sex, drugs and entertaining people were magnetically attracted to me.

I don't know the answer to that question, but I've had moments of satiation with regards to those things and I end up learning and/or thinking deeply - and in those moments it is the most pleasurable thing.

This is probably different for everyone because after being satiated being alone and thinking is what I like to do. I've also completely stopped drinking for similar reasons as the grandparent comment.
The client is made by the same people at the end of the day, so that is of little comfort.

Also, adversarial does not refer to just possibly breaking encryption, it also applies to daily continuity. I trust my ability to keep a small encrypted password database safe more than I trust some random companies to get bought or change their business model and suddenly I have to decide between a massive Flag Day or paying for something I did not have to before or having some kind of other unwelcome limitation placed on me.

I like controlling my own destiny, thank you very much.

It's these type of BS, clickbait, headlines that really give a bad name to Journalism.
Not to mention, there are good reasons for using powers of two, such as vectorizability.

If the cache is vulnerable to "bad access patterns" when the "bad" access patterns are the obvious go-to access patterns that anyone would go for, then it's the cache's fault. Even just XORing the address with a hardcoded, pseudorandom bit pattern would have alleviated the issue.

> It's more expensive than coal but it's cheaper if you factor in the externalities

Developing nations do not care about your supposed externalities. Caring about these things is a luxury they cannot afford in the literal sense.

> and it's cheaper than nuclear.

This is almost entirely the fault of deliberately crushing regulation... but that's a political choice not a technical one.

> Therefore, it's ready

Hardly. Nobody as-of yet has developed a reasonably priced, long-lived and efficient means of storage. Without this missing key, all the wind farms in the world will not keep the lights on when the wind doesn't blow...

> This reasoning does not make sense.

You'd have burned them pretty badly if you compelled them to install solar even 10 years ago because of how inefficient it was compared to other cheaper means of energy production. Even in the past 10 years solar tech has come so very far... that is my point about it not being ready yet. We still have a long ways to go in renewables before they can realistically replace energy production in mandatory environments, ie. environments that don't have the luxury of trying out new expensive unproven tech and changing it as the technology develops.

Confused, are you saying they inject a unique ID or something? Do you have an example of what they insert?
I'm not sure that anyone seriously implementing verifiable credentials has claimed that it's the "true unifying one [standard]", as it's just a data model represented as JSON. So, unfortunately this comment reads to me as an uninformed strawman argument.

VCs can be represented as JWTs (read the spec), issued with X.509-based PKI issuers, extended with JSON-LD, and further ride on top of exchange protocols defined at OpenID for issuance/presentation. So, indeed it is a combination that best fits your use case, this is just another tool in the belt.
That would be the distro's problem, not systemd. Any of those utilities are going to be optional, the distro has to consciously enable them and ship them in a package for it to make it to you at all. A lot of commenters seem to misunderstand that systemd is not forcing distros to do anything. All they really do is provide a set of tools for distro maintainers to choose from.
Twitter now blocks you from reading a timeline unless you have an account and are logged in for which they require a current phone number.

No politician nor public servant nor government department should be able to use it under those circumstances.

They really need silent accounts, that cannot tweet and are completely anonymous.
While I appreciate their advice I completely agree with you on that one, wouldn’t want to put that on a child
A reminder that Bush II redefined NASA's mission statement to exclude monitoring & observing the earth.

This is part of a long & still alive political agenda, which, best I can tell, attempts to bring apocalypse to this planet. There's money to be made now, & even the end of the world is not to stop that. Ignorance & fantastical belief outweigh reason & observation in much of the political world, & when in conflict defunding observability & evidence gathering has been alarmingly popular in a vast vast amount of said political world.

Heavens only knows how much more we'd know (and how much ealier) if this wasnt a mis-use of an instrument intended for other science, and instead an accepted & responsible & up-front role encompased in NASAs mission statement & their programme.

I went through the 'pager era' in the 70s and 80s. It was always most annoying when in a group and a pager went off. Whose was it? We would all be reaching for our pagers to see it it was us.

The same thing happened when 'the small-brick' mobile phones came in around the late 80s to early 90s.

Finally, we eventually got phones with selectable ringtones around the mid 90s. I have always since then used a personal ringtone that is different from anybody else's. And no, I don't put it on 'silent' because a lot of the time I don't have it in my pocket.
