I found power toys didn't work too well, especially when you want to turn it off and on, or put exceptions for some programs

I just have a simple autohotkey script + vim like keys for going up and down in textboxes/selection/dropdowns.

<!k::Send {Up}
<!j::Send {Down}
Capslock::Esc

Only downside is the mess that happens when on other machines that don't have that, also try to use ^[ as much as possible.
I explained that in the post. Namespaces / domain names / whatever you want to call them are set by individual users. The act of setting a namespace, ie binding “search” to whatever google’s hash is for example, contributes a “vote” to make that the default address for “search”.

Traffic can also contribute towards the count, either method would eventually settle on accurately capturing the will of people, but I would have to think about the mechanism for measuring traffic in a statistically accurate / honest way with a federated system.
No, some nitter problem:

Musk should get a Neuralink to let us know what is going on....
Very true, I think the issue though is unless that output is very likely to be 100% correct, a user would always prefer something that is incomplete but quicker to iterate on. It would be interesting to see if we can get to a paradigm like that.
I muted his account months ago, but still got the retweets. I voted yes, which seems to be getting momentum and is now leading by a very comfortable margin.

"Phony Stark", maybe?
I'm also really praying that some super cool platform emerges from this that's convenient and fun and also somehow resilient against the whims of whacky billionaires.

Its not wrong, but its ambiguous. I'd have preferred less ambiguity in matters of life and death.

Thankfully, in this case this is neither the end of the world nor the end of Mr. Laporte.

Nice data; indicates that Mr. Musk was (at least operationally) unfamiliar with the Streisand Effect, and is not learning quickly.

Yikes. The Emperor's clothes get more transparent by the minute
pg's account is back but all of his followers and followees were removed. Probably a bug?
I'm expecting one of the following:

(A) A sudden last minute huge influx of "No" votes. Either caused by bots or by Musk putting his finger on the scale. (Yes, I think this voting will be rigged.)

(B) He already has someone in mind for running Twitter. That person will be as bad or worse than he is. (What's DJTJ doing these days?)

(C) He will claim that 'liberals' and 'bots' forced a "Yes", so he'll remove those votes.
> the way he's currently operating, will force a critical eye toward a lot of bad behaviors

Yes, running an engine at eleven will show you where it creaks. But it may also fling shrapnel through itself and everyone nearby.
I voted No because this is the most interesting content to come out of Twitter in years and the spice must flow.

It would've been fine if he published planned policy changes and asked the community for feedback before putting it in place. But actually making random policy changes and then rolling it back hours later is such bad form. The latest policy changes were so half-assed and dumb that it makes me wonder what's going through his head. Doesn't he have anyone helping to bounce ideas around?

If he steps down, who do you think he'll chose as his successor?
Thank you, I very much appreciate this. Will happily watch the talk which looks very interesting to me. Cheers!
This is... confusing.

Especially considering that there are two (unrelated) Carmacks: John and Adrian, both cofounders of id software. As for John Romero, he did a lot of "stuff".
"Free speech, but dissenters will be exiled."
No Forth? Wow.
Elon Musk farts, drama on the internet. The world holds its breath. Really, who cares. Free speech my ass.

The guy was the richest dude on this planet and he’s acting like a 5yo. Who cares. An attention seeker, that’s what he is.
Apologies, the board I referred to was called the Hummingboard, not the Mockingboard. To confuse things, the name Hummingboard is used today by an ARM SBC manufacturer.

There were multiple Trump Cards too; one was apparently an Amiga peripheral board.
So much wrong with this and the article linked in first sentence.

Just a few notes.

To be pedantic, COBOL was invented by the Navy, mostly by GMH. And to call it dead is not consistent with the humongous body of code that keeps many large institutions afloat.

And Fortran is very much alive in many scientific endeavors, including the amateur radio program WSTJX which implements various weak signal protocols such as FT8, WSPR, and JT 9. These are built by Joe Taylor, Nobel Laureate in physics for work on pulsars and their declining period due to gravitational drag. These protocols are useful in weak signal work such as amateur radio moonbounce.

And SQL was not invented by oracle but by IBM.

There are too many other flaws in both articles to list here. The definition of death here is suspect, and the reasons noted not well reasoned.

If one is truly interested in history, I suggest reading about the life and influence of not only GMH and Jean Sammet and the book covering the 120 programming languages in use in 1960.

Edit: Full disclosure: I’ve professionally programmed in a significant number of the languages here, and my career beginning predates the invention of several of the important languages noted in these articles. I have strong opinions about all of these languages and often share them whomever wants to hear them and many who don’t. (Edit typo)
His account is restored and he's quickly accumulating followers:

Elon Musk went on to elaborate that the rescue worker specifically has sex with underaged Thai boys. Elon wanted to completely destroy the rescue worker.

Imagine if somebody said this about a high school teacher.
Twitter keeps emailing me about how I need to log in and look at fake notifications I've already seen. I verified I was already unsubed from all the various fake notifications they generate (including the specific fake ones they generated).
Do not try to understand Musk any more than you try and understand Putin, Hitler or Trump, instead you must hate him and believe every negative thing you hear about him. There must be no positive traits or deed ascribed tot them. No negative trait or deed can be questioned. Only then will the social media upvotes flow!

(You can replace Hitler, Trump and Putin with Obama, Soros and Hillary if you're on American conservative social media)

(It really is odd how the hated enemy can never have a single positive chatacteristic... seems to be a universal)
Elon is making all the same newbie mistakes in community building I made when I was running my first phpBB forum in the 90s... :D
So do you have the entire Huberman podcast transcript in the context of the prompt?
Why don't people use <C-[>? It's a vim native function and even in vimtutor. You're probably using control and hard brackets already for programming (yes, I understand you Europeans have keyboards hostile to programming. I accept your remaps just fine)
Lets bring Elon down, hah

According to European Union regulations, it's way more than just a website, let alone a personal website.
>Saying we won is a tacit admission that everything I'm talking about is true.

I'm fairly surprised to see this common format of internet-argument fallacy on HN! "You made X framing declaration, therefore you admit everything I said is true." It's pretty patently bad-faith and oversimplified.
I think there are tons of brands that could launch a Twitter clone right now while the dumpster fire is hot. My guess is that nobody wants to run a social media site these days… not even Elon Musk.

Social media sites are a sort of grayweb at this point in history.
Look up Lois Lerner and all of the "oops we deleted those hard drives you subpoenaed from the IRS" during the Obama Administration. While some corruption involves a quid pro quo, the most damaging kind of corruption in our government today is ideological corruption.

When an unelected person has an opinion (which they're certainly entitled to have in their private life) and uses their government position to put their thumb on the scale of how people / organizations are treated to match their ideological beliefs, that's a different kind of corruption.

The modicum of security these companies offer are better than the nonexistent security practices at the places I've worked for, lol. I trust them way more than the average user or small business.
Management by Twitter polls (dominated by bots) is crazy. But also, it's somehow not the craziest part of all of this.
Imagine you're the schmuck who agreed to Elon's "hardcore" work environment, showed up at 1 AM to do spontaneous code review, slept in the office, all because you so fervently believe in Elon's grand vision, and this is what you get assigned to implement.
Hints are used by the bind resolver software. It hard code the A -> M root servers and use those to initialize a cache. Naturally bind developers could change this behavior, and in the case that none of the hints works, the current behavior is to use a static compiled list that the software also include.
Good quality dairy is associated with high insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) levels in blood, which in turn leads to rapid cell growth. This explains why e.g. Dutch people went from being the shortest to the tallest in Europe.
Would you actually invest a large amount of money in TSLA, now that you know what musk is really like?
Looks like PGs account is now back up.
He cleared out all the non-believers, leaving just those who want to stay for the cult of personality. What happens the the personality is gone?

The last few months _have_ to pop the bubble that Elon is a master of anything other that self-promotion.

Yes, eg for physics simulations (of which there exist a great variety that have been optimised for HPC architectures consisting of nodes with CPUs and GPUs, for example for CFD). Special purpose hardware also exists, eg for molecular dynamics ("Desmond") but that is not common across domains.
Thank you, I appreciate your answers very much, very interesting to me!
The entire point of "everything being a subscription" is a marketing ploy.

(Also revenue. "I forgot to cancel the subscription" pays the bills like no other, see Comcast's revenue.")

Subscriptions have to be renewed, subscriptions send billing emails.

All of these things create more "daily active impressions." And in the attention economy, the more daily active impressions you have, the more your net promoter score rises (any publicity is good publicity).

The reason it's tiring is that humans have FINITE ATTENTION.

We're living in "the attention economy." Subscriptions are simply the latest strategy to monetize our attention.

The cure is to cleanse your email inbox of all "SaaS" emails like it's a Covid outbreak. And to be genuinely distrustful of all subscription products.
Wow. I was just discussing this exact point with my kids a few hours ago
Except in the sense that the speech being controlled is "X social media platform is better", I don't think it is.

Let me be clear that I think Twitter's new social media sharing policy is ridiculous and likely to cause a Streisand effect for Mastodon and others. Twitter is really harming itself with these policies more than anything else, but time will tell whether they see their own errors and grow up in time to save themselves.

Having said that, what other forms of free speech are being prohibited? I haven't read too deeply into the situation around the ElonJet and related account suspensions, but the justifications they've made were related to individual safety regarding real time location sharing of people in the course of their private lives, one case of which led to someone attempting to attack a person based on their shared location.

I think it's clear that there is some justification for prohibiting public location sharing for controversial figures during the course of their private lives, as it holds little value in terms of expressing oneself freely. Meanwhile, the previous suspensions tended toward expressions which were far less likely to lead to physical harm.
He chose his side in that war and it’s totally legal to use a private company to aid genocide.
He has too many business interests in China to risk annoying their government.
Ah, thank you for the correction. I removed that part of my comment.
I believe I’ve seen DDG ads on Google as well.
I think they're working on something similar to this, it'll be available somewhere next year. Source: Github Next Discord Server : )
Ah, that’s why I was banned. I had my Mastadon account in my profile. Made that account in 2007. What a shame to have something so important completely torn down.
Has anyone here ever used Windows NT on a DEC Alpha?

A company in Ireland I worked for gave a mobile phone GIS demo to the Irish national phone company and Digital lent us a beefy server with two AXP CPUs (it was gonna be the future!) running windows NT. We literally pulled it on cobbled dublin streets on a a handcart to bring it to their offices.
There is a picture of Argentina's goalkeeper kneeling next to Mbappe to comfort him, but that didn't get shared as much, the gesture with the prize is just a signature gesture of him and not aimed towards anyone in particular, sure it's mildly obscene but we Argentinians take everything much less seriously in that regard.

About Messi, you are leaving out the fact that he only said that as a response because Netherlands' players were encircling and saying things to Argentina's players during the penalties. Messi is precisely an extremely respectful player compared to others.

I've lived both in Europe and Argentina and I can say for sure everyone in Argentina is much more warm, homely and accepting of other nationalities than what I've seen in other countries.
I doubt she even responded, but 10 y/o me continued to be obsessed with her, anyway.

Good luck, Elon!
You can measure users if users also have an identity bound to a key pair, with a mechanism to have attestations to their identity. In other words, the role of a CA shifts to making attestations that a pub key belongs to a unique individual. With that modification, it becomes possible to use their signature towards voting on which namespace operates as a default binding for an address hash.

This mechanism is very feasible when connected to a larger system involving federated identities, and a trust matrix where users decide which authorities they accept for identity validation (or any other attestation). Binding a physical identity to a digital one has a significant number of additional benefits, and it can be done such that anonymity is preserved via sub identities with verified claims.
He could easily rig the poll, what's the point?
I didn't really believe in schadenfreude until this happened. Now, every day is filled with pleasure!
Okay. You don't have to answer this if you don't want to. I have no dog in this race, I'm just curious.

But if you do want to answer, when you say "perverting the truth" does that mean deliberately saying inaccurate things in bad faith for self-interest? Or do you think he genuinely believes what he says but is incorrect in what he believes?

Also, I'm curious does it bother you equally when other people push a narrative, or moreso because he's famous/mildly-influential?

Just voted using all of my 12 Twitter accounts. There is a huge startup opportunity to let customers buy poll outcome through human farms in Indonesia. They will need to compete with state sponsored bots but that's ok.
Same. I have Musk muted, but I saw a mention of the poll in a tweet by geohotz, so I went and found it (and voted "yes").

And I'm sure some Musk critics decided not to mute him anyway. Hell, I only finally got annoyed enough to do it about a week ago.
Profit scales, but do does risk.

An improperly-rolled-out software update could kill a lot of people, including people not riding in Waymo vehicles. That bug could be in every Waymo vehicle on the road right now, waiting for the environmental conditions that make it turn deadly.

Slow is safe, safe is smooth, smooth is fast.
Wonder if he's gonna ban anyone who voted yes.
There are too many suggested replacements that I find are overly prescriptive, contextually blind, and needlessly aggrandizing.

Some, I admit, have merit. (Senile, grey-beard etc.) To me they are common sense. Perhaps, the rest of the terms were common sense to the authors.

Several suggestions about cultural appropriation are hypocritical. People of all cultures say the Lord's name in vain all the time. But saying guru or totem pole or spirit animal is an infringement. Why?

There are many turns of phrase where the offensive implication is not even implicit. "Bury the hatchet", "take a shot", "rule of thumb". Does anyone have to do mental labor to separate the violence in the words from their meaning?

Some replacements are suggested to prevent a word from singularly describing a person, because people have multiple characteristics. Yet the verbosity makes the attempt more conspicuous. "Immigrant -> person who immigrated". Why?
> Elon is big on move fast and break things but I think he is going to hard and will destroy Twitter if he continues at this pace.

Is there still any doubt about that?

The only way forward where I think Twitter may be salvaged is if Musk steps away from it right now but I don't think his ego would allow him to admit to such a failure. So down it is.
Can you even turn Twitter around at all, even if he steps down and finds a replacement?

It was burning money before Elon, after buyout it is technically in even bigger loss. Advertisers and many influencers have basically fled from it. Politicians are also looking into regulating or outright ban it due to recent headlines of suspending journalists and more.

I still can't help but think that 40+ billion dollars probably could of built a twitter competitor with cleaner sheets and hopefully with better quality from lessons learned of previous social networks.
The Twitter files did not expose child porn acccounts that should have been banned, at least as far as I am aware, it’s the ease with which Elon has banned child porn accounts afterwards that showed how easy this was to do.

Twitter former head of Trust and Safety seems like a queer theorist. Queer theory, in direct opposition to the gay civil rights movement, from the first 1984 essay “Thinking Sex” by Gayle Rubin argued for normalizing “man boy love” as in pedophilia [1].

How queer activism build upon queer theory intersect with antifa activism may be why so much of Twitter antifa was involved in child porn and was banned for it.

What's interesting though is that it's now his private play-toy. If you want to buy a $1,000,000 Ferrari and thrash it into oblivion in 1 week that is totally your choice, have fun with that. It wouldn't be a free country if people could stop you doing so.

He's doing the same thing here, he just has more money to play with, which I think it what people are ultimately annoyed about.

Also worth pointing out that for years and years everyone said the way he was going about aerospace was impossible and stupid and was never going to work. They said the same thing about his approach to automobiles.

By very definition to shake up an industry you need to go against the status quo. You need to do something others have not, and you need to take risks. Otherwise you're just going to get a 1 or 2% improvement. So actually I see him messing with Twitter so fundamentally as a good thing, because there's a chance it will result in something great. It might burn to the ground too, but that's the risk you take when you actually do something.

I mean, the worst thing about Facebook/YouTube is the relentless advertising, so maybe there's a chance that Elon chasing away advertisers is actually a good thing for Twitter users? He owns the thing, what do you care if it makes very little money?

I guarantee YouTube and Facebook would be more enjoyable to use with 1/10th the number of ads (and as a result, 1/10th the profit, which means nothing to me)
Nuclear throne is one of the best action roguelikes of all time
From my perspective, this is what happens every night when I go to sleep. I may well "not exist" for the duration of the night. The whole connection from me-today to me-yesterday is my memory. Even the concept of physical continuation of the body (and every other belief, spiritual or materialistic) may be the induced memory. The only thing that help keep the fear of sleeping (effectively, dying) at bay is confidence that tomorrow large chunk of my today's memory will exist. And from this perspective, it doesn't matter whether this memory is bound to the single physical body or spread in the community.
I'm speaking in two senses of the word villain. It's clear that for basically everyone if you dig deep enough you can understand why they do things, it's also true that some people do bad things and cause harm and it's not the craziest thing to call those people villains
