The thing is, their product is fine — NFC tickets, for example, are really convenient. Transferring tickets to a friend works great.

The problem is just that they have a monopoly. They suck because of the ridiculous fees. They suck because they enable a secondary resale market. Etc etc. With no competitors, they have a captive market.
I have successfully stopped this habit using YoutubeVanced. There is an option to hide shorts from the main screen, which was enough for me to stop watching them.
Yes, but only if they can prevent side fumbling, using state of the art hydrocoptic marzul vanes.

I read it as Musk sabotaging it himself.
This is why I have been saying even if you don't log off from twitter completely at least do houseclean your old tweets with tweetdelete.net (or something IDK).

I do not trust Elon to use my posting history responsibly, period.
You seem to be thinking of "hunk" and not what Facebook calls "diff" -- what Facebook means by "diff" is closer to what many people call "commit" or even "branch", i.e. a set of interrelated changes that are sort of atomic.

Reviewing individual hunks would be crazy and even Facebook knows that.

The United States is perhaps Ukraine's biggest supporter for strategic reasons, but it's also critical that Europe supports Ukraine and their support has been a lot more uncertain and reliant on democratic pressure.

Even the USA's support will wane if the economic costs create democratic pressure against Ukrainian support. One half of US Congress has just come under control by the GOP, a major political party that has a prominent isolationist faction who have been pretty open that they don't see the point in opposing Putin and would rather focus on domestic concerns. This isolationist pressure is well contained in the US thus far because Americans are swimming in sympathetic media coverage of Ukraine.

Lol
I agree. I think it's simply that this thing which used to sometimes happen now never happens, thus making the music more predictable and further lowering the entropy rate of music as a stochastic process.
Maybe a better question would be: why should we ever care? This isn't insulin delivery.

It's kind of tragic the amount of engineering talent wasted on non-problems at social media websites.
Wouldn't it be more profitable to just make Twitter over again at a new company?
US politicians were elected by the masses to protect labor rights and stop worker exploitation by raising the min. wage, etc...they choose not to for decades.

Or maybe our beliefs changed as the facts changed.
Elon literally fired 50% of Twitter's staff in order to save on expenses. He's not going to suddenly turn around and dectuple the salary of the remnants.
Elon said there would be a 75% reduction in head count, ideally.

This huge reduction is obviously what he wants.

I’m sure he’d be happy if they hit 85%
> There’s really no moral or intellectual obligation to go down to the swamp to wrestle them

Well we are where we are cuz its easier said than done. Plus people are more and more addicted to look to the web for validation, feedback etc even when they are broadcasting from a nice bridge.

Its just better to stay offline and reach out to certain specific people when you need something. Which requires being more conscious of your Needs.
I hold them in high regard but honestly there's just so many moving parts the odds of anything that complex being able to ghost ship indefinitely aren't fantastic. Apparently the NOC team is gone too. If it makes it 1 week without major outages/major malfunctioning the departed devs/sres deserve all the props.
75% cut was clearly communicated to investors: https://apnews.com/article/elon-musk-twitter-inc-technology-...
Any specific reason to why not? These are very simple GUI apps, I imagine there’s not much custom code apart from your usual view code written there.
Uh,yes?
How will the tech-priests running the future companies know to keep the domain names related to the company's name 5 changes back?

The cost paid to the domain registation service is only a small part of this equation.

Eternity might be overstated, because old accounts tied to old domains will surely lose their utility at some point and the potential for phishing goes down as the old names are forgotten by the public. Although it would be interesting to know what shenanigans can be had at Chiquita if one were to start mailing from unitedfruitcompany.com
That’s very naive. We’re talking about a distributed system with thousands of servers, with code from people who might not even work there anymore. Yeah, maybe if a server gets a high disk usage alert because of runaway logs you might fix it… but maybe that fix causes another problem, or maybe the alert is in a system that you don’t even know its purpose. Maybe 72h is just what it takes to you understand the internal tooling and how to do any action there.
Owncloud/Nextcloud... beware. It's significantly worse than the other services.

I've tried really hard to make it work (including self-hosting), but it's just poor software, for a few reasons.

Worst problem, which I haven't experienced with the other services, is that if there is a connection problem (this may happen routinely, if servers have scheduled downtime), files may go out of sync. Result is that, ridiculously, one may get conflicts even if they're using a single client in total. There was an issue opened, which has been ignored and autoclosed for a while.

Second, lack of centralization causes a bit of a mess. One never knows which version the servers ship (although one may not care); hosts may be less realiable, and finally, hosts may change frequently (I've see a few changes in the list of free servers) so one is never sure how long the service will be offered.

Also, the configuration shipped with the Nginx version was not great. Overall, I think that the software "isn't great", and I don't trust it for personal data.
The opposite probably happens at least as often. "Wow this is such a good painting it must be a missing van Gogh. I'd better pay someone to verify it so I can become rich!"
2012 should be added to the title.

FWIW the CPU in question is a 45nm dual-core, four-thread, 1,66 GHz Intel Atom chip that supports a max of 2GB of RAM. It was Intel's X86 alternative to ARM for phones/tablets.

Its micro-architecture was completely different and far more simpler and lower performing than Intel's Pentium or Core chips of the time in order to massively reduce die-size and save cost. Therefore it was slow and under-powered even back then in 2011, even without these artificial limitations put in place for market segmentation. Just ask anyone who used Atom chips of that era.

At the time you would often find these chips in cheap Netbooks and Tablets, usually by Asus, and running a bare bones Linux distro was the only way to get anything usable out of them, as getting run over by a bus was a more enjoyable UX than running windows on them.

In a way, those cheap, light, portable Netbooks were ahead of their time, held back mostly by the low performance of the low power chips of the era, the bloat of Windows of the era and the jankyness of bare bones Linux distros of the era that wouldn't ship with the mainstream apps people used on Windows.

So as cool as this hack of removing the artificial limitations is, I'm not sure how much this really helps to make a case for using this CPU for OS virtualization using Windows VirtualBox on all four threads, considering the already severely limited performance and RAM.
"Plain old wireguard"

In my mind wireguard was still the new kid on the block.

Technology moves so fast.
The problem wasn't the government; the problem is the society. For [reasons], the Taliban have been the only indigenous (or quasi-indigenous) force capable of holding Afghanistan together as something approximating a functioning state, at least since the wars with the Soviets. Sheer brutality is one of the reasons they've succeeded, and their ability to minimize crime was one reason they saw wide--if tepid--support in the 1990s. Moreover, they've figured out how to build stable social institutions out of violence:

> The Taliban have mastered social performances of power using a language which is visual and visceral. They bring together shared narratives and beliefs from Afghan history and culture in the Muslim period to create new stories about who they are and the state they intend to create.

https://theconversation.com/what-my-20-years-in-afghanistan-...

But the real question, for which I haven't found a satisfactory answer, is why chaos reigns, otherwise. The demographic and cultural collapse in the wake of the Soviet-era conflicts are obvious culprits, but too broad and not necessarily uncommon; ditto for observations regarding it's traditional tribal culture and ethnic conflicts. A proper answer, IMO, would tell us about the particular factors which resulted in the evaporation of the social trust required to sustain national governance (if even just a traditional strong-man state), and therefore how they might be restored--or at least what to watch for as a sign of the viability of national social institutions. For all the problems with social trust some Western societies are having, we're still unfathomably distant from where Afghan society lies. The vast majority of countries are quite distant. Even Somalia is better off, or at least the half of Somalia which has been able to revive and sustain their ancient clan-based social institutions.
Hugely sorry to hear this. I met him when he was visiting Cambridge while I was a PhD student and he's a wonderful person as well as a computing luminary.
it's worth noting that there are many more timbral manipulations now available. effects such as a filter can serve a similar purpose to a key change and can even be modulated as instruments in their own right. modern producers have many more options.
It's not that surprising when you consider the major effects are usually co-dependent on another variable (i.e. K2), or small over shorter time periods. I just take my 5k iu of d3 and what would be considered a megadose of k complex and keep my head down and my arteries relatively clear.
I totally agree with this. And the behaviors show that in psychological tests when grouping people. Responsibility becomes "fuzzy" and there is way more inaction.
> Yet number of users increased faster than ever.

Source on this? I've seen reports that the number of "monetizable daily active users" is up, but nothing about the actual user count.
Huh? You have no evidence either way yet.
>Also note that Comcast, BP, EA etc. are all successful businesses. They just shitty to humans, but successful. So founding a big successful technology company is a big achievement, but not a unique one.

What nonsense. If Comcast didn't exist, some other company would provide cable service to its customers, and NBC would have another owner. If BP didn't exist some other oil company would be searching for petroleum in the Gulf of Mexico and northern Alaska. If EA had gone the way of Epyx, Synapse, SSI, or 99% of other video game companies founded in the early 1980s, its video games would have appeared under another publisher's banner.

If Tesla[1] didn't exist, would the global e-car industry be anywhere close to what it is today? If SpaceX didn't exist, the odds are very, very high that the rocket industry would still be 100% expendables into the foreseeable future.

[1] Yes, yes, I know Musk didn't found Tesla
So ads.. as much as I dislike the industry, that's also an eng intensive task, right, as you attempt to predict user tendencies, raise engagement by showing the right shit, capture more data, and engage in the bot arms race.
That just tells me that (a) they were/are over provisioned so an increase in DAU was a rather simple thing, (b) computers are deterministic and if everybody quit then the system is at the same state as it was when it already had less DAU and was able to handle more. There is no engineering feat here brought by him.

Personally, I really love Syncthing https://syncthing.net/, if you do not need an iOS client.

I have it set up on all my families windows machines, my personal machines and between two NAS. One of the NAS does nightly backups to backblaze.

As someone who has thrown up a lot over the years and has a love-hate relationship with vomiting -- because sometimes it alleviates some of my symptoms -- I would be interested in hearing more about the experience of vomiting in reaction to taking this and why people apparently seek out the experience of vomiting.
On one hand I can see how this would be incredibly useful (I can never remember what ffmpeg flags I need) but I also just,,,,, I have this immediate uncomfortable reaction to the thought of just piping AI output into the terminal with the express purpose of not needing to know what the flags do. If the AI makes a mistake and the only way to catch it is to know what the flags do anyways, I think this becomes less useful.
The premise seems cool but the demo page isn’t working and single example isn’t really something that would convince me to go with full API registration.

If that’s reasonably stable and can produce more obscure commands (I’d love to see for example how it fares with more complex git usage) that’d be really great tool to have.
Almost all EU countries have a good social system with a universal medical coverage, some unemployment benefits, a minimum wage, and retirement. But it seems that even Canada is far from being as bad as the US.

Twitter is becoming a place for high risk employment.

The reward is deathmarch with Elon holding the whip.
lets remember that tesla was a mess at its inception and that musk also kind of had this bossy behavior that made many people reluctant to join its vision. those who joined him became millionaires if not more and contributed to create the greatest automobile company in recent history. and that was after building paypal.

the press and many people in those comments are making a mistake thinking he is a fool and behaved in a stupid way. that is not donald trump. he doesn’t care about people that don’t buy into its vision and he doesnt care if twitter sinks to lower lows in the following years.

for musk, the last years of twitter are a disgusting and corrupt way to deal with democracy and the way business was handled at twitter was totally corrupt. Wether you agree with the democrat agenda or no is a thing. that you want to push your cult into the minds of everyone on twitter while censoring alternative ideas is the problem and does not align with the vision of what a medium of communication should be in a free world. YOU ARE NOT in the side of good because you repeat the woke things that pelosi and its cult are repeating. and your oponents are not NAZIS. mankind is much bigger than your small conflicts and politics and the vision musk has for twitter is bigger than the beliefs of a few corrupt politicians and your voice should not be more important than the one of another human being.

In five years I am pretty sure many of the people that are commenting here will put a lot of money into twitter stock when musk will make it public agaibn.
This new service allows them (or if they’re hacked - anyone)… to MitM your connections - they state themselves they could ssl terminate the connections as they own the ts.net level, they say they don’t but that’s now…
He has been lying about everything for a long time. His companies are a scam. Take a look at thunderf00ts youtube videos
Good to see work in the PDF space. It’s still one of the most important formats. I would love to see more time invested in tools that can create PDF/A documents, which I believe to be the sane subset of PDF.
I don't think that the elderly EUthocrats really have thought this through
Also it defines a published "unit" that one can do things with, in a single file. The article seems to assume that the interactivity of websites is paramount. I don't think that's always the case.
It's counterintuitive but Tesla shareholders might want Twitter to fold quickly so Elon can fully focus on Tesla again.
Didn't Ross hire a hitman?
It’s social media vs social networks.

Facebook, SnapChat and Instagram are social networks.

YouTube, TikTok, and Reddit are social media.

It is a terrible hack, because one wipe of your wipers + fluid does the same. Alternatively, one move of the scraper does it faster than that bag.

Maybe if the bag was on a stick... it would be faster. But regardless, the bag just leaves the now melted water there to refreeze!

There are no hacks. We already know how to deal with these things, and the methods are effective, easy (for the problems presented).

That still requires a server.
> It's a micro blogging platform with a fairly simplistic feature set.

Yeah, you can do Twitter on a weekend… if you only use it yourself and a few friends.

But we are talking about a platform with millions of users, all of which want real-time access to tweets written from anywhere in the world, including image and video content. Just getting to “no outages” and “low enough latency” parts is going to take a lot of effort to build from scratch. Don’t underestimate the complexity of Twitter.
Wow. Multiple large telescopes interconnected by an optical path through underground tunnels to form a giant interferometer. It's amazing that they got it to work.
TikTok is just timeline scrolling taken to the extreme. Constant dopamine hits. I’m not too sure this is healthy but then again not my business what people do with their bodies.
>Ross was smeared with false, unprosecuted allegations of planning murder-for-hire that much of the media amplified through inaccurate and sensationalized reporting. The allegations were never charged at trial, never proven, never submitted to, or ruled on by, a jury, and eventually dismissed with prejudice.
It encourages looking quickly at small bits of changes in isolation as opposed taking a holistic view of the entire change, and viewing them in series as 5 min little tasks you can tick off like tiktok videos.

The review tools on github already go too far toward this by removing far too much context.
I have seen a lot of resistance against GNU Taler so I think if any country adopts a CDBC it will be fully surveiled with no privacy for customers. After all that is what people want. They don't want privacy in their CDBCs.

Well, if that happens I hope they implement negative interest rates on them because that would end the need for surveillance and political corruption within a decade.
I'm perfectly happy to have single document in single file with no interactivity. I'm to read or browse it not to play with it. Think of office documents. Why would I want to interact with them?
No, not at all. It's just "worse" because often you load a whole page. If you load only a fragment, then it's just as fast as anything else.
Yet he still felt the need to pretend he had said degrees. I think that says a lot.
People I know who have done Ayahuasca seem to me have had adverse effects on their mental health. Not the one timers, but going regularly. It’s subtle, but it seems to me they got worse regulating their emotions and rationality. Unfortunately this study is based on respondents so unlikely to uncover such a pattern.
I think people are missing the obvious sarcasm in this post.
Well, that sounds dispassionate and unbiased.

And oh hey, he's a model prisoner

...none of this is utilizing actual facts, it's just assertions and emotive wording.
I have no degree at all and my job is pretty advanced research and implementation of ultra low-latency software execution stack in a major market maker. What's your point?
Sheesh. First of all, we already know that because people have already died due to Tesla software not working right.

And second of all, he thinks Twitter can’t lead to deaths? Let’s say the Iranian government was given unfettered access to DMs and metadata for all Iranian citizens with an account. Not hard to imagine scenarios that end in death.
How does a molotov cocktail fare?
I'm pretty sure that doesn't apply here. But if it did, I'd find that impressive, too. Most topmodels never make it to 10 billion USD.
Plain old wireguard doesn't do double-nat hole punching. And many of the open-source alternatives (such as innernet) also don't.
No we have half spin Allen dampeners for that.

Ruby is well known as the “bad parts of Perl” so there’s a beautiful horror here. It’s also funny that Ruby is the slowest of the dynamic languages, and that Perl is much faster. They created a magnificent mind bending nightmare.
