I'm not an expert of any kind, but I'm going to give my unasked-for advice anyways.
1. Paid moderation as the main solution probably isn't feasible. Even if you can find a way to monetize your project without annihilating your userbase, the amount of text will outpace the manpower you can afford.
2. Moderating is a crap job and there are never enough volunteers. Because there are never enough volunteers, you will feel forced to accept subpar volunteers and tolerate ones with annoying proclivities.
The solution to these problems is the same - you need to make the manpower you have go further (cover more text). First, minimize the need for moderation. That's a difficult task when your entire project is user-submitted text, but if you can prevent people from creating multiple accounts and ban or suspend people who generate disproportionate amounts of moderation, it'll help. Second, you need good moderation tools. Don't be reddit, where moderators rely on third-party tools and bots to manage their community. You need to provide good tools to detect things that need moderation and not bother humans for things that don't. The more you can force-multiply your paid and volunteer moderators, the better you'll do.

p.s. I could ramble about moderation for a while. I'm in favor of suspending rather than banning users in most cases, and I've been toying with an idea that suspensions could be based on the amount of content and crap someone generates. You want content, and you want to keep the level of crap in that content low enough your moderation can keep up with it. If someone generates a lot of content and a little crap, you can just remove the crap and only give them a small suspension. If the proportion of crap to content someone generates is over whatever threshold you think is manageable for your platform, give them increasing-duration suspensions so they're generating less content and less crap - keeping your sitewide crap threshold down. If their crap-to-content ratio goes back below the threshold, or your sitewide crap load has gone down, you can start cutting down the duration on the suspensions. An algorithm could surely be devised for this and then you just set a 'crap threshold' platform wide and moderators don't have to do anything other than remove a post and the suspension is automatically applied.
There are exceptions, of course. Illegal content? Removal and warning if it's not too serious - ban if they do it a second time. Removal and ban if it's serious. Harassing other users? Ban. Crap of a type that will drive away your userbase? Warning, ban. You could probably devise a more strict algorithm for this, but when it comes to people who make a community worse by being there, being lenient with them is something you're doing for their benefit, not yours. Whether you choose to be lenient is up to you, but if you get it wrong they'll drive away the people who generate content and you'll be left with people who generate crap.
I did what you would have done in my previous job [1]. A larger "enterprise" style company bought us out and was trying to force their Enterprise Agile unto us. I felt it was the wrong development style for the team I was one---for over ten years my team had always been on time, on budget, smooth deployments (four a year was a "busy" year for us [1]) and no show-stopping bugs in production. Once the new company took over, we were blowing our deadlines, disastrous deployments and major bugs in production were found.

I raised my concerns up the chain of command, and got to a VP of the new parent company, who was looking into the situation until he was let go (or sacked, depending upon your point of view). All I wanted to do was go back to our previous style of development, which worked. But no, the parent company wants to do it their way.

I left shortly thereafter.

[1] Our customer was (well, technically still is if they're still a customer) a major cell phone carrier where a sprint for them is two years, not two weeks.
Just because "The Internet"'s _mainstream_ may not resemble anarchy, this doesn't prohibit other parts to resemble anarchy. In fact there are a lot of examples active and thriving "on the Internet" fulfilling various definitions of anarchy.
I'm not picking up on what you're implying is the confusing part.
My favourite one is “surely it’s as simple as…” or other equivalent things of “I have no clue how to do your job but will tell you anyway”.
Asset heavy. The computer systems to run one are expensive. Compliance is expensive. Your return on assets are probably lower than 5% in a regulated market.

If you don't take extra risks to spruce up returns, you lose money.
Regulations are coming? On a fully public ledger?

You understand that BTC, ETH, and every derivative non-privacy-coin is exactly what the regulators have been salivating for, right? Why regulate a non-repudiable chain-of-custody that mathematically proves your serfs'/slaves' assets that you can seize at will?

This document describes UniPress Emacs 2.20, the Unix version written in C by James Gosling and distributed by UniPress (who RMS referrers to as "Evil Software Hoarders"), based on the MockLisp extension language. Version 2.20 included multi-window support for SunView, X-Windows, and the NeWS window system. The document goes on to describe the future plans for SoftWire (a networked PostScript interpreter like NeWS but for managing text file and streams and sub-processes instead of drawing graphics), which UniPress developed but by never released.

You are right - the government analysis looks like garbage IMHO.

The slide shows that they are actually just forecasting (month * 200) cases which is obviously not the way you should do this. The slide also has a bar chart with a line between the bars, which is a stats-bad-smell too (at least shows that whoever pulled this together doesn't understand how to display data).

I know this is a developing nation that won't have the same level of availability of statisticians and epidemiologists, but it's worrying how basic this is.
Tax away… all the Meta stock? We’re talking about ownership of assets, not about income. What do we do when we take his stock - do we sell it back on the market crashing the price or do we establish government ownership of every large company? How did you come up with 1 billion as the appropriate number? Do we get to decide that part democratically?
> I enjoy seeing some heads on HN :) Hello from NYC! Had dreams of going to Plastic, RIP

Easy!

I think we all did back then, we were the outsiders looking in and that was Mecca; I started listening in 2006 when Youngsta's Dubstep All Stars came out so to us it was pretty rare thing that few out of LND had ever heard of, but we eventually had nights in CA. It was mainly brostep noise, with the occasional UK talent if you were willing to drive on a weekday to LA and drop lots of money, which I didn't have at all back then. But I saw Distance back in 2009 at the Roxy on a weekday and went to work and slept in the parking lot for a few hours after the rave just to see him, but I finally got to hear his remix of Changes and then Beyond on a decent rig and just went into some eyes down thing, and which made it all worth it.

So, when that wasn't possible I stuck to pissing off my neighbors with my paltry bedroom DJ antics on vinyl I had shipped from Redeye every 2 months from London and listening to RinseFM to fill the void.

NYC? Isn't Joe Nice still doing/running things out there?

I know the Dub Warz nights were the US' version of DMZ for a while, and was sort of a soundclash [1] theme to it, right? I saw some footage of Kahn at one and the dubplates he was pulling out during his set were insane.

I've been out of the scene for a while now, last event was before COVID (late 2018 or early 2019) where I was convincing Youngsta to get SP:MC to Denver since Nicole repped'd so much talent and SP;MC is badman (MC/DJ/Producer), which he did later in the year but I couldn't make it out.

I still can't believe Toast bigged me up at a rave ahead of Leon Switch's set when I told him I was part of the original Thursday night 'brandy and bass' crew as he was walking up to the stage and I was talking to Leon, which for those of who listened from the US back then seemed impossible but they were just normal lads happy to see people came. I asked him if he could drop The Fifth VIP, and when it dropped I ran up to the booth from the dance floor trigger fingers in the air and we both had smiles ear to ear (reminding me of this [0]).

Apparently he started including that track in his sets from then on.

Good times!

I'll send you pic of my signed copy Surge/Cold Blooded when I get back to the US. I got it when I met Youngsta a few years after it got pressed. I used to hang it on my wall above my decks, you're probably the only one HN that would even know who that is let alone appreciate the golden era we were going through back then--talent from DnB and Dubstep were crossing over so much back then and that was the when the genre felt so free and open to explore what it wanted to be.

Leaving you with this one, as I just fired up the sub and will be signing out with this [2] tonight with a spliff.

You’ve lost this battle. Prepare for the next: figuring out what full serverless even means.

It should mean “keeping state to an absolutely minimum, and relying on event-based architecture.”

Are you familiar with event-based architecture? Are you familiar with functional programming?

This is your time to shine.

There’s a strong possibility you’ll end up with Lamdas (or whatever) that are just CRUD endpoints.

That would be bad.

So be prepared to fight out what comes next.
Matter was finally released last month. Over 190 products are Matter certified or close to be certified, including smart plugs, motion sensors, and thermostats. This video explains What is Matter, and how setting up a Matter device works with a demo.
Gemini is doing fine last I checked.
I’ve been waking up my partner from PTSD nightmares for the last three months whenever they make nightmare noises, which I’m used to doing so I don’t remember doing it most of the time, and they don’t remember waking up either.

But when I leave town for a week they start remembering nightmares again, and then when I get back I remember prodding them out of them for a couple nights, and then both of us stop remembering.

I still don’t know whether or how often I’m bothering them out of nightmares at night, but clearly I am doing so, and it’d be nice to have something doing that for them so that they aren’t dependent on someone else for it. I don’t mind at all being helpful, but this still sounds like a huge quality of life improvement for them!
I wonder how many fake mines had also been placed on the roads.
To me chemistry suffers from being actually quite difficult field. Even by doing these sorts of experiments it is difficult to build up good intuition and actually start using chemistry to achieve some specific goals; contrast to e.g. electronics or programming where after some very basics you can start building your own things
So if I understood correctly, it's a service that searches across all the 'things' in the AWS accounts by name or other tags. I just gave it a try, it takes a little while after indexing but then everything is searchable from a dedicated page in AWS Console.

The first thought that came to mind was this would be very useful if it were part of the search box at the top, making it like an 'omnibar' - so not only does it search resource types, it also searches by resource tags, an all in one result box. Wouldn't that be convenient.
Well, nobody forbids you, but its akin to speaking Chinese in England without ever trying to even learn a word used there. If you want to do anything useful you ought to use the OS layer sooner or later, which will be predominantly a C ABI/API.

It was probably happening. At least weed and alcohol.
You may have gotten particularly lucky.

I say particularly, because Core2->Core3.1 was a fairly painful change for some.

I'd say the 66% worst case is 'you also have to add some compat flags and stories to properly resolve the compat flags'.
The answer is to fix your processes, not demand Microsoft accommodate them. The lifecycles are already plenty long.
I've noticed there aren't a ton of tanks in my area and I'm wondering if there's some dragon's teeth buried in my lawn somewhere. Might do some random digging to find out.
That's been the case for a long time and it works well.

Already that will introduce some slightly interesting shapes in the network graph as not all instances will have matching blocklists, even though the reasons for blocks right now are similar.

It's also not a black and white action - instances can be blocked completely, or just limited (blocking files & attachments or post visibility without blocking user follows, etc.).

However I'm curious to see as the network gets a lot larger whether that network graph shape gets a lot more complex as certain instances start blocking others for a broader variety of reasons. For example I've seen discussions of blocking sources news/journalistic content on an instance intended for friendly community chat. I think it'll be interesting to observe what bespoke & unique moderation policies emerge.
It used to be called "proper value" in English (you can still find that in old textbooks), but the (semi-)German word has basically entirely replaced it.
How is apt not crypic?
It's the bona fide definition of it, every part of it.

1. It spits out mountains of cryptic gibberish when you use it.

2. It literally contains "Advanced" in it's textbook nondescript three letter abbreviation.

3. Without a fairly intimate understanding of it's hairy inner workings on how exactly dependency and package conflicts are resolved, it will fuck things up and fuck things up quite royaly. Matter of time really.

Case in point:

Linus from LTT removing DE when installing Steam (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gD3HAS257Kk)

4. In fact, I'd go a step further and say that it WILL fuck things up even if you do understand that whole house of cards,
but you will atleast know how to duct tape your way out of it.

Again reminder: How exactly does this enchance "our thinking" in any shape or form exactly?
It's been going that way since LINQ and I'm happy every time they move a bit more functional. I don't want my C# to be purely functional, but I love being able to choose to use functional constructs when I feel they work better.
Curious, does this apply to romantic partners too? Personally, I'd be sad if my wife didn't share things troubling her that she didn't need my help solving. I like knowing how she's feeling about things.

But at work, I understand this mindset. Though personally, I still actually don't mind hearing people complain. And since I'm a manager, complaints are a very useful signal for me: even if I'm just in listening-mode, they give me more clarity on precisely what's going on in my team.
From how I've heard it used I'd say 'attend' means 'pay attention to' with undertones of care or service, in this context.

You might have to dig a bit for the details. The following link could help, and the relevant part might be on pg. 8 (actual).

Craig Wright. It's refreshing to encounter someone who hasn't seen that scammers circus.

In the latest season we find Wright trying to steal literally billions of dollars worth of Bitcoin while constantly yelling that everyone who doesn't support him is a criminal. If he weren't financially ruining people with vexatious litigation it would all be pretty funny.
I agree that LTS should last longer. They made it easier to upgrade between versions though. Perhaps won't help you if you use .NET in patient critical medtech for instance (in EU).

Biggest problem for us is .NET Standard. I don't even understand how it could work on a theoretical level. Maybe it could work if there was no dependencies.

I own a first edition Monster Manual (and DMG and PH).

"It does not include beasts from non-European sources unless those beasts are the basis of Bestiary, Physiologus, or other Western beast legends."

That's a shame because there is a bit of an overlap throughout history of beasties finding a new home - far away from where they originated, thanks to an enterprising traveller spreading stories in passing.

My issue is the cadences are difficult to work with.

Microsoft's general-ish LTS for .NET is 2 years. We also only seem to get a new release every 2 years. It's hard to handle breaking changes between two versions quickly.
Mass executions lead to only 2 outcomes: total fear or total war.
Any way you look at it 3 years is pretty low for industry standard LTS lifecycles. Besides the .NET Framework comparison Java LTS is 5-8 years.
I was curious if this was true and looked it up. According to the American Arbitration Association rules section R-9:

Small Claims Option for the Parties
If a party’s claim is within the jurisdiction of a small claims court, either party may choose to take the claim to that court instead of arbitration as follows: (a) The parties may take their claims to small claims court without first filing with the AAA.

I am very much not a lawyer and have zero experience with arbitration but that seems pretty strait forward unless I am missing something?

> Some people diagnose and troubleshoot by starting simple -- this is especially true if they've been roped into an incident in progress and no one has caught them up. Is it plugged in? Is it turned on? Have you power cycled it? Have you done other simple things that humans tend to forget when dealing with a crisis because we aren't perfect?

Usually when it's not a person you're often working with you'll start by a little speech like "I've been asked to come help. I'm not up to speed so I'll ask stupid questions. Please don't mind it, I just want to cover the bases before we can start the hard work".
Well, rust (and c++ as well) is that much better than c because it actually allows proper abstractions on a language level. You can’t even write a general purpose vector data structure in c, which doesn’t have an overhead.
What is the reasoning being provided? Will it save money due to your users using the application during business hours? Are there assumptions being made that are not applicable/valid in your case?

Personally, I was excited for serverless, but after using API Gateway and Lambda to serve a simple REST API it seemed like more work compared to using a load balancer to route requests to a container running in ECS. ECS can autoscale too, so you can scale up and down as required.

In the times the article discussed, plenty of parents bought chemistry kits for science-inclined kids without any real idea of what they were; assured by the packaging and availability that they were appropriate. For the most part they were correct.

That's hard to imagine these days.
What limitations are involved? I’ve never really understood why 3 years is unacceptable or intractable. In nearly every case the real issue is that nobody wants to fix broken internal processes that prevent people from upgrading once a decade.
Fascinating story. I wonder what other dirty secrets state agencies have in stock for us tech stack-wise.
