That's exactly what people are trying to do by switching to Mastodon! And Twitter seems to be trying to prevent people from switching to Mastodon.
It is, and shockingly for some, it's also exercising free speech to point out the hypocrisy. You can do both!
I got it from here.

It looks like he might be enrolled but not actively using it, or using it wrong according to the above tweet.
Is it possible that this program is ineffectual, because of publicly-available information from other sources that can be cross-referenced?

If I were to put together a badly implemented privacy program that people can trivially circumvent without breaking the law, who should be blamed when people do exactly that?

Me, or the people doing the trivial yet legal circumvention?

ElonJet pointed out where the flight was.

The journalists simply pointed out that ElonJet was using public data from the FAA. So no, its not considered doxxing. All airplanes must be tracked, otherwise there's a chance that they'll crash into each other.

If you don't like that, then maybe don't fly in a private jet all the time. Share your jet with others. Or God forbid, use a cheaper, more efficient, better-for-the-environment electric vehicle.
There is no consideration for putting children to work, labor exploitation is illegal and needs to be regulated.
Otherwise what is stopping from employers to start hiring 14yr olds for everything.
If so, it’s amazingly effective considering the discourse that follows. Frightening times indeed…
This is the crux of the argument, however arrogant it might sound.

Brilliant genius engineer guy with shiny thing needs to be able to articulate how to sell $8B of the thing. This of course has not happened, as OpenDoc had been failing for years until that point.

That statement is the final blow. And probably deserved by a person who just accused their boss in public of being uneducated on the topic. Something elitist engineers love to do and seem to get away with time and again. Yet when they are put on the spot about their own shortcomings, we are to assume this is some kind of attack? Please.
I’m not sure about you, but for me I don’t get same emotional responses when writing code.

Of course, there must be few people who have mental issues and a) won’t get normal hormone response to sex b) already addicted to sex. But I see it same as vast majority of homeless people. When a choice is made because of mental issues… Its not really a choice.

Similar to people putting in major overtime to run away from issues at home or inner daemons. Not as bad as alcohol or drug addicts and sometimes society even puts them on a pedestal as great achievers. But overall it’s a net loss to society. Because it normalizes and promotes behavior that is disadvantageous for majority of society. And underlining issues will bite back eventually. Both the person in question and society through his or her medical bills at old age.
In context of SO, garbage in garbage out (GIGO) applies. That is, many ChatGPT-generated answers look "almost" correct but actually they aren't. While many of SO answers which might became data model for the bot training are high-quality and correct, there are many other answers which are questionable (low-quality posts). Also, bots (ChatGPT included) don't take and understand surrounding context like humans do. So, without context, no matter how good something is, people with subject-matter expertise can (and will) see the fishy behind it.
To be honest, this isn't an ADD thing. This is poor management. Don't think you're an outlier here, I'd be shocked if anyone was getting anything done.

First, uninstall work comms from your phone and from personal devices (unless explicitly mandatory of course).

Second, mute all channels except the ones you actually need notifications for. Mentions will still show bubbles and can still show notifications but messages that are irrelevant will not.

Put a permanent slack status that reads something like "Ping me if you need me, otherwise I probably won't see it!" with a :warning: emoji as the icon.

Finally, if you're still getting too many notifications, talk to your manager about the productivity and distractions problem. Do not make it about your ADD. It won't matter to them in the typical case, and doesn't actually signal to them it's a problem they can solve. Instead, speak about it in the context of a team distraction. I guarantee you with that many channels, you're definitely not the only one thinking this.

Just a tip about the muting: You can manage the channel categories in slack, putting most of the channels into their own category, and then muting the entire category by right clicking on the category title.
However, just like chatgpt struggles with arithmetic, it also can’t figure out simple logic puzzles. I gave it some puzzles like the ones here: https://www.woojr.com/printable-logic-puzzles-for-kids/ and it has no idea how to solve for it.

It kind of makes sense if the model is purely generative, as if it has not seen the exact puzzle before, it can’t just “regurgitate” the answer. For example, I gave it the classic four gallons of water in a five gallon container puzzle from die hard. It solved it perfectly, probably because that exact puzzle was in its training set, but could not generalize it to other bucket sizes.
Seems highly unlikely this is a satirical protest.

More probably it's just a man bringing his fetish to work and expecting everyone to comply, as is the zeitgeist of today.
> If DNSSEC/DANE is deployed, and some clients cannot make use of it because they are shitty, why hold back the non-shitty clients that can deal with DNSSEC/DANE? Just because 100% coverage for all clients isn't possible doesn't mean we shouldn't try to move the ball forward.

Because that's only the first step. After that you have to solve all the problems WebPKI has already solved for itself.

Two primary things - the ability to remove trust anchors and visibility into issuance. Neither of which are in any means doable or solved with DNSSEC at this point in time.
Well I guess that this year's tech crash and layoffs that the 'four horse men' told me about finally happened. [0] Perhaps there is more to come; but either way, no-one is safe.

Along side the other predictions at the start of the decade I made [1][2] with the majority of the predictions being accurate so far, I am still predicting that startups that don't turn a profit will be struggling to raise further capital by VCs as it will get harder to seek more capital for them to stay afloat in 2023.

“The more reliant we are on others, the less resilient we are as a nation”
4chan is one of the worst places on the internet. What could you possibly defend?
I fall in the first camp. Elon's claimed stabd on free speech and his actions are just so opposite to each other, that calling out his hypocrasy makes absolute sense.
The hidden dangers lurking in your kitchen
I understand why you might want to add a sarcasm indicator to texts including sarcasm. I'm not arguing against that point. I'm trying to show the other side of the coin: why some other people would not want to add those sarcasm indicators.
I am able to solve the issue by fixing my DNS. I was using the default dns provided by my ISP and that was creating the issue. Changed the same to 8.8.8.8 and the issue is resolved. Thank you for taking time and responding back.
I agree and not trying to typecast—but maybe their personality + Asperger’s = dubious people-oriented decisions? I’m not a doctor nor do I know anyone with Asperger’s but it is a variable at play.

But quickly looking it up it’s a social-oriented disorder. Elon is making dubious social-oriented decisions.
The Windows 11 task bar/start menu changes are really baffling to me because they really do change a bunch of stuff and then provide no way to turn them off. Most egregiously, if you just want apps in your start menu and remove the "recommended" fluff, then you literally end up with a start menu block which is half empty, and in the "recommended" half, it gives you a helpful link to the settings to turn back on the "recommended" option you just turned off. It's almost like someone at Microsoft is having a joke at their users' expense.

The search is now also really hideous. Popping open random websites by default instead of files or applications on my own computer that are a better lexical match is incredibly annoying for a company that also makes VS Code, which almost always finds what you want when you type just a few letters of the thing.
Right. It is hard in general to compare performance or generated code across languages as they make different trade offs. Table 3 and 5 show compilation of our memory model to X86 and ARMv7. The compilation and the related work section discusses trade offs.

To summarise, atomic read and write in OCaml is more expensive than C++ since C++ SC atomics only establish total order between SC operations on not operations that are weaker but related to SC operations by happens before. We need stronger atomics for local data race freedom.

Our non atomic are also stronger than non atomics on C++ and Java. That said, The non atomic operations are free on X86 (compiled to plain loads and stores) and involve a lightweight fence before stores on weaker architectures such as ARM, Power and RISC-V. The performance results show that extra fences before stores have a barely noticeable impact on ARM and Power.
Sorry, I meant the tense simply to refer to that one talk (to not overgeneralize), but I could see how it would lead to your question.
Sorry, I'm bad at explaining myself, hah. I go on tangents.

My point was that with Windows 10 there usually was a toggle for the changes they make to the taskbar. But for some reason, there doesn't appear to be for this one.
Happy to do it. Email me and we'll setup a Zoom call. It's easier to give this kind of feedback face-to-face rather than to write it. :-)
> Self drivings single mistake can be fatal

Maybe that really unfair. In USA on average a driver will be involved in two accidents in their life [0].

In France, my wife had a stroke one year ago, so she was forbidden to drive cars until the next exam.

A few days ago was the time for the dreaded exam, but happily she was reauthorized to drive. The doctor told her "if you know the state of many old drivers, many have undetected visual impairments or Alzheimer disease, yet they still drive".

They forgot the fact that you can create internal certs with longer expiration dates than a year.

You’d be hard pressed to find an organization that hasn’t had operations taken down at least once by expired certs.

Renewing all of the certificates in the org every year is just a time consuming hassle.

Obviously auto-renew setups are preferred, but in the instances where this is not possible, i prefer 20 year certs over hoping someone will remember to change the cert for the next 20 years.

It’s all internal traffic anyway. You could use all of the time saved to harden your network instead, which would provide greater security than cert rotation.

For some people, 4chan is one of the best places on the internet.

At a personal level, if I want to hear a point of view I never heard, or that is a blind spot for me about a specific topic, it's one place where I can find it.

If I need to find extreme arguments against my own point of view, or total opposite passionate takes on something I'm sure about, it's one place where I can find it.

It I need to be surprised, if I'm looking for deviant creativity, if I want to learn something weird and new or be taken out of my comfort zone, it's one place where I can find it.

In that sense, 4chan is, paradoxically, one of the most genuine, purest human forum experience you can get. And yes it's terrible because of this. It's insulting, full of bullshit, hosting plenty of people with dangerous ideas.

But that's also its value.

I don't want to live in a world where people can only write things I could think about, or things that would not hurt me.
> After using several of these "second brain" apps & systems and ultimately creating my own "second brain" app, I agree with this, and the general sentiment behind it. This space is just a rebranded subset of self-help. It's the productivity porn market. Roam Research was the first to realize the cash gains to be made in this space. Their marketing hook took off, they got their VC handout, and they haven't been heard from since.

Honestly, this is probably a good description of your situation, but certainly not everyone's. I use Obsidian every day and nothing you've written resonates with me. I dump things into the tool. I find those things when I need them. I'm much, much more productive as a result. Plus the sync is the best I've ever used. Works flawlessly every time on my Linux desktop, my Surface running Windows, my Chromebook, and my Android phone.

Maybe your work doesn't require these tools?
> I love the moving of goalposts that's happening here. "Just pick a server", "you can always migrate" moves to "you can always migrate if you happened to have picked a server not run by a hobbyist".

There's no moving on goalposts here. I have not replied to you suggesting anything less than this previously, so there were no goalposts for me to move.

> Which, BTW, isn't even a filter criterion on the often linked instances.social.

So don't rely on instances.social if that is a consideration for you. If this matters to you, do your research. Joinmastodon.org does have a filter for "legal structure", but if you care about that you really should read the about page of your prospective server. Or run or pay for your own.

I simply provided you with a list of options if this is a consideration for you. It's your choice whether or not any of those options works for you.

> Also, you can't back up your followers.

Yes you can, though not from the default Mastodon UI. In fact anyone can download your followers list as JSON. What you can't do without support from the original server is to cause your followers to refollow you on the new account, and that is indeed a legitimate flaw that I'd like to see fixed (and it's doable - there are key-pairs associated with the accounts which would allow for signing an assertion about the account moving, and while the server need to have a copy of the main private key there's no reason for users not to be able to get a copy of it). It probably will be - the entire account move functionality is quite new and needs iteration.
There are a lot of dimensions on which QOI could be improved, but most cases involve trade-offs, e.g. more complexity for better compression. The areas where QOI could have been strictly better, the dimensions on which it is not on the Pareto frontier, are more meaningful criticisms — missed opportunities.

This summer I spent a lot of time researching lossless compression formats as a streaming format for our 3D capture and reconstruction engine. QOI was on our list too.

My biggest criticism about QOI is that in many cases it doesn't compress at all, or even increases size. It works well on the demo images that come with the package but these are carefully selected.
It also works well on high-res, high-quality images with lots of single-color background and/or smooth gradients. But give it grainy, noisy, smaller-format images and it completely breaks down.

We ended up sticking with PNG, which btw. has fast open source implementations too [1][2].

Amazing how few people do some basic research - this isn't new or exciting at all. TGA is fine and has been around for decades.

It also has the added benefit that many applications still support it natively. I really don't get the appeal of inventing yet another custom file format that has so few objective benefits.
A service is trying to make it difficult for you to switch to a competitor. Surprise surprise.
I'm not leaving Twitter because they canceled somebody or because they don't have canceled somebody else.

I'm leaving Twitter because it no longer provides me an interesting timeline with content that I care about.

Enough people in my network left (for whatever reason) and that's enough to create a network effect.

I tried blocking musk and other accounts that created what I perceived as just noise I don't care about (I'm not a us resident, I've had enough of your culture war. It was educational and all but I'm also interested in other things!). But that wasn't enough, the Twitter recommendation engine keeps notifying threads about people I don't follow that talk about things I don't care about. Often just because Musk replied (and since I blocked him I don't really notice that until I click to see to details of a hidden post).

It's a shame. I'm not a social media person. I found Twitter to have been a nice low friction way to subscribe to interesting topics and people.

This whole drama has just turned it into a permanent worst version of itself
I'm running Windows 11 preview and have the ability to turn off taskbar items in taskbar settings. I get the impression that they are still experimenting with the search box settings.

100% agree it is a ploy to drive Bing search.
I just disagree with this view, lots of people use it to code. It should be easy to setup a coding environment with it. That's all I mean.
Judging by the screenshot, both the text and search icon aren't even centered correctly :(

Interesting how he tells young Japanese to follow the letter of the law instead of the spirit. I feel as if in American following the letter of the law is the default. There is no voluntary conformity here.
Why wouldn't they just use TGA? Just as simple, more flexible if need be and understood even today by most image manipulation programs and 3d modelling software.
There was a larger plan:

https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/29/politics/washington-pipe-bomb...

It failed because the bombs were found and because Mike Pence defected or at least chickened out at the last minute.

That’s why they were chanting “hang Mike Pence” not “hang Nancy Pelosi.” What you saw was a rage filled riot in the wake of a failing coup attempt.

Had the bombs gone off and Pence stopped the count a state of emergency would have been declared. I’m not totally convinced of this part but I’ve read that they were expecting a bunch of radical left counter protestors and that the role of the mob was supposed to be to start a big street brawl with Antifa or whoever was supposed to show to help feed into the state of emergency ploy to suspend the election.

It was more elaborately planned than Hitler’s beer hall putsch which was a bunch of Nasis getting blasted at the bar and having a street brawl with police that ended in a very asymmetrical gun fight.

Luckily it probably will end here this time though since Trump is too old, Flynn and Bannon are too obviously kooky, and DeSantis doesn’t have it in him. He knows how to troll the woke for attention but I don’t get hard core fascist vibes from him. He will try to do a Viktor Orban but it won’t work here because America has courts and federalism, and he doesn’t have the balls to attempt a coup. Say what you will about Trump but he did have balls.

Agreed, but GP was explicitly saying that this makes DNS challenges more secure. I was simply responding to that.
Jlcpcb has the easiest and most affordable service. They have a library of pre selected parts that you have to choose from, but it is pretty comprehensive (300k or so to choose from). They are the only ones that do the pre-selected parts library thing, but it also makes them SO much cheaper and faster.

They also have their own free eda software to design the schematic and pcb that links up with their parts library. Easy eda. It puts out a generic gerber file and bom too so you can shop around if you want to double check what the cost will be at another producer. Kicad is another alternative for PCB design.

Not going to argue with your points, except to say that I think it was good and useful for a primary school aged level of understanding.

You could learn the entire language, every keyword, by heart. You could get to grips with all the various basic logic flows (if then else, while), understand variables, and you could get instant feedback (essential for the young kid). Scratch provides that learning place now, but basic was good for that first step into programming.

Fully agree that it was easy to outgrow it (at least until things like quickbasic came along).

Right, so 100 fs = 1e-13 seconds. And a million times slower than that would be 1e-7 seconds, or (10 MHz)^{-1}.
Then you move to guessing by syllables or whole words. Probably an order of magnitude or larger brute force job that way, but it should be possible. Especially if you target common words in the sentence first.

Do you not see the self-contradiction in your own comments?

In other words, the so-called "simple answer" is not so simple if you can't even post your Mastodon link on your Twitter profile.
Yes, of course, it's just a conversation model. It can't really understand the game logic, in the "human" sense.
