Exactly. It smells very strongly of the same kind of overgeneralized superficial thinking that leads people to believe that less moderation is always good. You can’t possibly expect that everyone in your company will be 150% invested work-any-time business evangelists. Maybe the 50% who are left now have to work double? Are they so incredibly enthusiastic about the job to take the hit silently?
Consequently, the only way I pick what to watch on Netflix is using either ratingraph.com or a browser plugin that shows ratings from other sites directly in Netflix's UI (don't remember what it's called at the moment).
I find this hilarious. We all understand that the core reason some people might want to hurt twitter is because it is no longer going to follow the moderation policy that they liked (namely, silencing people with different political opinions). Yet, people can't name this reason honestly, and invent some other thin weiled excuses like 'layoffs are baaaad and unethical'.

Bold prediction: this influencer with 40k followers will find that ~40 of his followers have followed him to mastodon, and will be back quietly in a few months. Likely, after finding some reconciling excuse about Musk doing something good so he can be forgiven.
Because they were told to at gunpoint?

Obviously there should be a better reason than that. But hard leaning nationalists tend to lack better ideas.
Isn't putting whatever you want next to a popular guy's tweets enough payment?
for me that would be completely reasonable, but it isn't necessary, you can have many decentralized filters like automatically block people that are blocked by a % of people I follow and many similar mechanisms
Not really: the implication there is that people who need additional accessibility work are not users. The UX of a system is the sum totality of the experience of all users of the system, regardless of their needs.
> I don't want to be the asshole to ask people to speak in English

As long as you think you're being an asshole by asking that, then you will be, because belief becomes reality. I'll leave the philosophy there, but that's obviously a heavy sentence.

More practically speaking, ask yourself to think about it logically. Is it an unreasonable request? Personally I think asking people to stick to business lingua franca when in the office — which happens to be international English — isn't. If you ever come to that opinion too, you'll also be comfortable with it, and _then_ I'd say you should just ask them to speak English in the office.

If it looks like you won't come to that opinion in the near future, then you have a few choices, as others have pointed out:

* Learn Mandarin

* Change team / jobs

* Be okay with being uncomfortable at potentially being left out, and with all the potential disadvantages that brings

I understand the logic is easier to come to than to action, but there it is.

It's an interesting problem, because it mirrors the remote work dilemma organisations are facing.

If they are not built for remote work from the ground up, then the people who are remote will suffer, and the organisation will suffer. If remote work is an option, there needs to be a decision made that _all_ processes are built around the notion of remote work, whether you're in the office or not.
I’m not choosing a browser here, I’m saying that Chrome is not repeating the most fatal mistake of IE: implementing many APIs in their own way, often very different from the standard. Until recently, Safari was repeating the IE approach, but right now it looks like they turned to the road of sanity.
I mean... they don't pay anybody for it, or actually have any sort of fact-checking right now... and they're still one of the most dominant cessp... err, social media sites.
The move to decentralised tech is not to escape corporate censorship. It's to avoid the right's obnoxiousness that's set to spike now on Twitter under Musk's "free speech" vision.

I mean the opposite of platform neutrality.
Did you see the benchmarks for their current gen CPUs? They are on par with Ryzen 7000 and better in performance per Dollar. Especially since they still support ddr3 and fit in 12th gen sockets, making it even more attractive if you want to upgrade from last gen. With AMD you're forced to buy all new, with expensive ddr4.
You can throw a voxel remesh modifier onto your model in Blender to get the same functionality. It will convert your model from polygons to SDF and then back to polygons.
Yes.

Those with negative equity are likely to pay down debt faster rather than consuming (hang on to the car for another year, or not repaint, for example), so there is some effect on aggregate demand over time.
When the lines are smaller, you can place more transistors/functionality in the same area, which leads to higher performance. The power required decreases too.
Check out reviewmeta.com, sadly its quality has decreased recently because the servers are overloaded I think.

Please don’t get me wrong; I also don’t care (never used Twitter) and this is an honest question. Why does it bother you that people are consternated? I mean, Twitter is one of the leading communication platforms internationally, and LOTS of people use it intensively both for business and personal stuff. I guess it’s understandable that it affects them deeply. It is at minimal weird that half the staff has been fired in less than a week. If you ask me it sounds much more like a hit job than an honest attempt to improve it.
You say this like he's quietly minding his own business and some pesky journalists are revealing what a dickhead he is. That is not the case, he is outspokenly a dickhead. He wants to broadcast what a dickhead he is _so_ badly, that he bought the worlds foremost social network to control the medium.

I'm having a bit of a... culture shock? Not sure how to call it. We're a small company from an eastern european country, building one product and trying to make it into the big world. We don't have the luxury of caring about if a messenger app is meta or not. Is it doing its job? yes. Is it encrypted? Sortof, but truth be told we'd use it anyways.

If we have extra time we spend it on checking backups, or improving performance, or researching new cool stuff we can add to our product. Which messenger app to use?! Yeah, definitely culture shock. Severe, too.

You don't choose your ideology, it's assigned by the tooth fairy when you lose your first tooth.

Alternatively, it seems to have a significant genetic component, and most of the rest will depend on the environment you grow up in. Choice isn't part of it, you don't evaluate all the possibilities and then pick the best one, you think the one you're part of is the best one because it intuitively made sense to you. The rest is rationalization.

Exactly. They will announce that they are 'leaving' but don't have the guts to delete their Twitter accounts and their followers as they will continue to lurk and post links from Twitter on wherever they moved to.

I'm experiencing bad connections all the time, especially while travelling. Additionally, mobile plans are quite expensive in Germany compared to many other countries. So yes, I try to save bandwidth when possible, e.g. by offering AVIF and WebP in addition to PNG and JPEG files on my blog.
The demand for e.g. NFTs is rapidly dwindling.
Most of the crypto currency space is driven purely by greed, fueled by gwt rich quick schemes.
With the downturn of many economies peoples expendable income dwindled and so did their desire to buy a link to an image.

But seriously folks: Twitter is rubbish. Find something more useful to do with your time.
Agree, but... Twitter clearly ain't the sort of business where Elan has done well, and it may be a bad fit for both his personality and public persona. Twitter could outlast the lettuce...but "win" with 0.1x the monthly revenue, or otherwise be headed for "the next MySpace" status.
The problem with the Web Speech Recognition API is that for now it more or less requires either:

- including proprietary code (open source browsers are reluctant to do that (widevine is usually the only exception and it's opt in on Firefox and some Chromium forks)) (Google does this for other parts of Chrome at least, idk if it's used for WebSpeech or just live captions)

- interfacing with OS-provided proprietary code (doesn't exist on all platforms)

- streaming everything to a cloud server (likely prohibitively expensive unless you're Google) (Google does/did this too)

Safari not allowing requests to localhost from HTTPS is weird and I'm not sure why it's like that but it works fine in Firefox. Same for OffscreenCanvas which is the only canvas feature I've missed, Firefox finally added it 2 months ago.

Anyway, just don't block specific browsers, feature detect and if possible use a polyfill or ponyfill.
How to make precise sheet metal parts (photochemical machining)
If you'll forgive me for my unsolicited advice, I have some thoughts about what I would change...

As is there is already the option to switch from "About" to "Local Storage", which presents me with a blank page at a new URL to start creating my own structs...

What if you use the URL as the key in localstorage, and store the document as a serialized string there? Then I can create new blank documents by visiting a yet-to-exist address. Then the dropdown menu could be used to switch between documents... oh, I guess we're just back to files and folders then xD

...so if the goal is to have one global document that I can zoom into and out of (arbitrarily nested structs), perhaps I could select any block and blow it up full screen, hiding all data outside of it, but allowing child-blocks to be added. You could implement these as folds so you only show the struct to x depth, or move down into the struct, following the rabbit hole as it were.

As the complexity multiplies, I expect eventually I'd want the ability to re-use blocks in multiple places, like a hard link, different paths to the same content. Then you get to visit a block in one place and ask "what are all the structs that include this block of text" ?

I always thought Wikipedia should work this way, there's so many articles on history and chemistry etc that have some context or background info -- very similar content produced by many authors. You should instead be able to embed a paragraph from an existing article and optionally pin it to a version/hash, but if its not pinned, you could update a hundred wiki articles at once by improving one sentence, and you could tell the computer, "show me all articles that embed or quote this paragraph", Now we're getting Xanadu-ey!
I’m honestly flummoxed that you think there is no evidence and that you think this was his plan all along. We’ve all been very aware of what’s been happening since he made the deal in the first place. The ability to negotiate stopped then.

You don’t need to make excuses for him or pretend he is infallible!
Copy the array on every append? :)
For me it is much, much simpler. I invest a lot of my time in putting content and thoughts onto a platform.

If I doubt the future of a platform and already find the status quo questionable, I am just not as motivated to put in the time to do something on there.

I guess for many people twitter was a platform they wanted to get rid of for a while, this is just a trigger to convince the others as well.

Sure, but people aren't primarily complaining that musk is rich. That's a convenient 'bonus gripe' but the main issues are his political leanings and his apparent disregard for the company's workers.
I find that even "Peter" sounds a bit strange... I've always read him as "Pierre", which is the name under which he signed a great deal of his works.

Of course, "Pёtr" is a monstrosity.
For most problems, making use of kubernetes follows the same rule of using regular expressions.
Who know's Musk is one of the wealthiest people on the planet who tends to take big gambles he uses twitter a lot and probably sees value though that

You can download all the data apparently, so you could watch the birdwatchers!

However although users get a permanent id it's not possible to get actual Twitter handles from these ids. So identification of who the birdwatchers are is not easy (wisely so)!
Who cares about top end performance? I really care about performance per watt.
There's a real difference between a company on the public markets and a private one. American capitalism always had a democratic bent of everyone being part of the success story by owning stock and companies being aligned with the public broadly through market signals. There's a big difference between a company answering to a usually diverse and accessible set of shareholders and a Bladerunner-esque trillionaire who uses it for whatever he wants.
Plastic also gets knife marks.

I think the difference is the plastic goes in the dishwasher. But you’re right, I also read that news piece about wood being slightly antiseptic.
This might be the one real value proposition to come out of all of this (if there is one).

Part of the scoring metric is awarding more weight to historically diaposed views. Bold strategy, let’s see if it pans out for them Cotton etc.

It turns out that in the big picture, there are fewer people who are truly critical than most people think.

Especially individual contributors. There are rare exceptions but those, who truly make a difference, stand out.
Ok, but that’s not what the rule is saying (be civil, no ad hominem, etc). If that were the case I would have no issue. Maybe that would be a reasonable rule - and it is on many forums.

It’s saying that criticism must “assume competence” - that’s very different - and as a moderator I can twist any kind of criticism into a violation of this rule. And why do I have to assume competence anyway - shouldn’t the work stand on its own merits?

And let’s get something straight - “being a moron” is not equivalent to being incompetent (in an area of expertise). One is just name calling the other is a specific legitimate criticism.
Sovereignty is not ownership, surely. The United States has sovereignty over its own territory as well, that doesn't mean it has ownership of every parcel of land in the United States.

Afaik Matrix started in 2014, Activitypub in 2016. Both were probably pretty small back then, so no reason to adopt the other's protocol when there's no guarantee of stability

> everyone on here is probably a great conversationalist and insanely emotionally smart

Definitely not me.
From the page: "We believe regular people can valuably contribute to identifying and adding helpful context to potentially misleading information."

That'll end well! ;) Problem is that on Twitter people aren't "regular", they're either seeking their own echo chamber for confirmation bias or the opposing echo chamber to insult, so crowd sourced feedback will simply be used as a tool for either of those.
Ok, so: "that just means that GitHub as a service makes no sense, right?" Like, I feel you simply ignored the core complaint of my comment so you could instead note something about GitHub's potential liability (a thought process I didn't even bring up, though I can see how many you decided to bend my final comment into somehow being relevant for that thought). Like, are you simply ceding then that a ridiculous amount of the content on GitHub -- including major projects such as Linux -- are not allowed to be posted to GitHub?
I constantly switch Twitter back to chronological and immediately notice when it pushes me onto the algo timeline.

Another recent change they made (I think just before Elon took over) was making Notifications algorithmic. As a somewhat low-notification user, it's essentially ruined notifications for me - most of the ones I get are nonsense now instead of signals someone has interacted with me.

I think the only site I use where algos actually add value is YouTube, after many years of sending people down weird/wrong paths their algos actually seem pretty solid now in terms of suggesting content relevant to me.

> How many notes are there?” Boulanger would ask. 12? 88? As many as could be imagined? The answer Boulanger sought was seven, the diatonic scale, to which everything else was an inflection or embellishment.

That's a strange view I have never encountered before. In nature there's an infinite number of frequencies, and in the Western system of equal temperament, surely there are the 12 notes of the chromatic scale?

To think that sharps or flats are not really notes, but simply modulations of actual notes is... unusual? I wonder what she based this on, and who shared the same ideas... Is there a tradition that has historically taught this as well?
> but one that particularly struck me was that he laid off the entire accessibility team

How accessible is Twitter's website? As a normal user I already find it to be an utter chaos, a horrible UX, which is why I rarely go there.

The standard library gives you plenty of tools to maintain and search in a sorted vector. Often enough still faster than maps.

What's your source for popularity and does it do a breakdown by demographics advertisers are most interested in? Because I think that tells a very different story from "still most popular with boomers". Their earnings and stock price also tell a different story from "still most popular".
