I agree, but there are different levels of scam, and this isn’t a particularly complex one. Very little was required from the conned to figure out it’s a scam; e.g., the involvement of the “NFT” concept.

Have you thought about making a demo? That would give you something you might feel good about sharing on social media, and would be passed around on if the game is good. And it’s something you could make with your existing skill set (no crafting of emails necessary).
You sure don't know or you don't want to compare with other cultures. While you can talk about specific Argentinian subcultures that inherit a lot of traits from other places in the world you can also say that the racism and nationalism that is alive in other countries don't have a place in Argentina. For example, slavery was abolished around 1860.

We can probably thank Angry Orchard's cider tasting like Jolly Ranchers for cider not making more of a comeback.

Angry Orchard... Jolly Ranchers... hah. I see what's going on here.

My guess is cider isn't considered macho enough even when compared to the lousiest beer available. Just like White Claw and long island iced teas, I almost never see men drinking them.
It's not dead, ok.

Can we say it's mostly dead?

For example, is it more or less dead than perl?

Just dancing is fine, and there certainly are many Tiktoks, perhaps even the majority, where dancing is the primary focus. It's fun, and the movements look cool and make for good content. But some trends lead to Tiktoks that clearly focuses on the sexualization of whoever's on camera, minor or not, and that's also the content that sometimes "hits" on the algorithm and goes viral.

I don't know enough or have enough data to suggest a concrete solution, but thinking about these angles for the popularity of the platform itself can reveal insights that people don't normally think about, in my opinion.

Since they're banning Linktree (which exists primarily for that purpose) it sounds like they are. I hate that Twitter is turning into a closed platform like Instagram.
It’s been dying for 15 years. First slowly then “all of a sudden”

What’s merlyn doing these days?

His response to the early warnings that “Perl is dying “ was “more people use Perl now more than ever”

The downfall of Perl should be a “case study”. Other communities should learn from the Perl community’s mistakes.

Java also had many problems for quite some time but its frequent update cycle seems to have helped.

It works pretty well! One recommendation is to make a better navigation menu so inside /webstudio/ user can find features such as Web IDE for a page with one click. or make a photoshop like top menu as users are more used to that type of interface.

Heh, I just tried to fire up a Snap instance of FreeCad on a remote machine (because snap on the local machine was broken). Got an "X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication", even though xeyes started just fine. It seems to be yet another Snap limitation.

That’s… called neoconservatism (and weirdly neoliberalism is a basically a synonym). Classical liberalism is closer to libertarianism, is usually against government involvement in private matters. Those ideas are much older and came before McDonalds, Goldman Sachs, Cayman Islands, quantitative easing, and trillion dollar bailouts type of economic system of today. Sure, Reagan and current day republicans steal rhetoric from classical liberalism all the time, but the political-economic system is unrecognizable.

The “big corporation-style” capitalism is definitely a new flavor, and unfortunately that’s seen as centrism today, adopted by moderates of all political sides across the western world and even beyond.
It's also complicated by cultural factors. The culturally deaf (often written "Deaf") have their own culture -- sign language is a complete and distinct language, there are norms and practices unique to the culture. Acquiring the ability to hear is also the ability to, in effect, leave that culture and acquire the mainstream culture. Many Deaf people do not, in fact, view themselves as disabled or impaired. Particularly those who grew up mostly around Deaf people and who have an entirely Deaf experience in life. Everyone around them seems fine, they have their own distinct culture, etc.

As a consequence, getting an implant as an adult, or allowing your deaf newborn to be implanted, touches issues of social status and identity and politics within the Deaf community.

It doesn't take long for a culturally Deaf person to do a little thought experiment. What if the hearing can one day "solve" deafness in say 98% of children at birth? The cultural Deaf community may well face extinction under those circumstances. There would be no more children learning sign language as their native language, the chain of cultural transmission from deaf parent to deaf child would be broken. It is quite literally the end of their distinct culture and way of life, which they do not view as impaired or lesser.

You can even take this argument a step further. If mainstream society starts pushing and not simply offering cochlear implants to deaf children -- such as by creating a narrative that the Deaf are lesser or impaired in some way -- then that may well constitute a form of cultural genocide, taking the children of a particular culture judged as less or inferior, mutilating them, and forcing them to be raised in a different culture.

I'm not particularly convinced by the more extreme form of the argument, but it has been made, and the argument as a whole in all its various forms, I don't think can be fully dismissed easily. There is a point there.
That goal was from a rebound, not as impressive as Mbappe's second goal which also happened because Messi lost possession rather lazily. And seriously Messi was literally walking even when the Argentinians were attacking. It really felt Messi was out of steam. He lost possession a lot, couldn't convert atleast two opportunities even though he got into the D and shot at the center of the goal right where the keeper was standing in the final minutes in extra time. Messi is a legend, but today Mbappe outshone him.
Perception.

People see a different world today. One where douchebags are rich, and people who work 9-5pm, and raise a family, are NPCs.

Everyone trying to get rich off an image has to sell that story in order to make money. If the world thought having a stable job and a loving family was the epitome of cool, none of these cash-grabbing losers would have an audience, everyone would be busy doing something useful.
PG just announced he is moving to Mastodon[0][1].

This policy can be rolled back, but the trust is eroding, and it's much harder to rebuild. People will be more and more afraid of spending time&effort to cultivate an audience on Twitter.

For me, it'll require a leadership/ownership change, which is not that likely?

PG can do it, his audience will follow.

Not everyone has that luxury. Especially for those who are at the beginning, and need to be where the community is.

But I see this as a powerful signal of things to come.

I was thinking of this and if you take TV news media there’s a clear political dichotomy with CNN and Fox News. If you look at that deeper, Fox News is the most watched station in the USA. Still more, the Fox News audience is profitable to advertisers offering Cash-For-Gold and worthless symbolic doodads. Until now online media has not followed the same course - TikTok, Facebook, and Twitter are all chasing Gen-Z and democratic and progressive markets, while trying to put forth an impartial image to moderation. With Twitter’s pivot, it may lead to the same sort of fracturing that we see in television. Sadly, given US demographics, building a conservative safe-space echo chamber might also be a better way to make money.
> He fears John Mastodon.

Context for those who don't know of this meme, given that it's something like 1 day old: https://mastodon.social/@mattsheffield/109530309049677792

"[someone] misread the Twitter account @joinmastodon as "John Mastodon," and said that the open source social media software was named after this imaginary person."
> rendering it unusable by its current audience

Since journalists are so overrepresented on twitter, I’ve been wondering if undermining them is a goal here? Business people and conservatives are generally pretty hostile to journalism. It would be a pretty big coup for them if the NYT, Wapo, etc lost eyeballs because Twitter went down the tubes.

Is that worth biting tens of billions on? Probably not. But I’m sure Elon and David Sacks wouldn’t shed any tears if all the preachy lib journalists just disappeared one day!
I think it is pretty clear this is the case, I mean look at any post he has responded to with dislike in the last month -- every day there is a queue of disabled accounts that have interacted with musk or poked his thin skin.

At the end of the day as far as i am concerned its a dead platform -- just the ad reductions against the 1bn + interest means the runway is on fire. Whatever elon does at this point is just pretending to do work effort while juggling balls in the air. It is clear he will not only tank twitter but given he has already hit a sell off cliff on tesla shares he will be licky to have any relevent input on that corp in the near future.
> There have been numerous steps for addressing both housing and food prices

Raising interest rates .000001% would technically qualify as "a step".

So would enacting policies that have technically more than zero effect, but also contain gigantic loopholes (purely accidental oversights, I'm sure) that facilitate avoiding the proclaimed spirit/intent of the policies.

Government is largely theatre, the manipulation of the perception of the public (producing "not to worry!" attitudes among the public if done well). Housing costs have been a MAJOR problem for WAY over a decade (as can be seen in various charts), substantial serious action could have been taken long ago before it was too late, now there are hundreds of thousands if not millions of people (recent buyers) in financial positions that could cripple them permanently, in addition to the MANY millions who remain in the position of likely never being able to afford a home (in a traditional sense of the word, or recommended ratios), or will be permanently poor due to having to spend a historically anomalous percentage of their income to just cover rent and food.
I've never seen this before now, but I just got a Google search result video page with a kind of table-of-contents index on one of the video hits just now. (These TOC entries don't correspond to the marked segments on the timeline. I don't know whether this is something YouTube is doing, or something the content creator did.)

Is this what you mean? (Pardon if I'm not familiar with the latest Google Search features; I've mostly been using DDG lately, so don't have occasion to see all the features that exhibit only occasionally.)
There's two distinct issues here; one is the content of the rule (that many people have already posted smart things about), and the other is Twitter's new system of governance via Calvinball, where rules are made up on the fly and are often at odds with the basic culture of the site (for example, the sudden prohibition on sharing location info).

It doesn't help that the rules are capriciously enforced. The situation will probably continue until Musk finds a new squirrel to chase up a different tree and Twitter gets an adult caretaker. Jeff Bezos could do public discourse a real solid here by proclaiming he's just about ready to fly to Mars.
> Since the concern with loss of range or or starting capacity usually has to do with how the batteries perform at at extremely low temperatures

Isn't heating the cabin also a major component of the concern? That's where heating the cabin on grid power would help get some range back (assuming the battery is fully charged; if it's mid-charge then you're just shifting the grid power from charging to heating so the range will continue to suffer).
> Committed to a cause, lives up to one's commitments, committed a patch, etc.

It's so easy. Almost every word has positive and negative connotations. Find such a word in your opponent's vocabulary, claim they intended the negative connotations, and thus declare him a sinner. Reference this Stanford document to support your accusation.
Ask HN: Anyone tired of everything being a subscription now?
Not newspapers or media services (though those can be annoying too), but products in general? It feels like it's getting harder and harder to just buy something in the tech world, especially when it comes to running programs on my home computer. Want a password manager? It's a SaaS now. Note taking app? SaaS. Image editor or office suite? SaaS (thanks Adobe...)

This is especially annoying given I generally refuse to rent anything in life, and will go out of my way to buy something upfront simply so there's no risk of losing it if finances get worse in future (or the wrong billionaire buys the company). Yet it seems like it's getting harder to do so, especially when open source products don't exist for that domain.

So yeah, why is that? And is anyone else tired of the constant barrage of subscriptions for things that should be one off purchases?
OpenAI University: Unleash the Potential of AI
Somehow people are still trying to convince themselves Musk is a good, virtuous guy. It probably has a lot to do with them not being able to admit they were wrong, or that they bought his PR bullshit.

The reality is he's an awful person who in this case is the proverbial dog that caught the car.
This is insanity and the policy that will kill Twitter instantly. There is a large part of art, writing Twitter that use it as cross promotion and with this policy in place they're just not gonna be on Twitter anymore.
Alternative possibility (which, to clarify, is just a random idea of mine, not even a hunch): he sees himself as some sort of political figure, either as a candidate or as a kingmaker – just the position that, if I understand correctly, Trump has lost a few weeks ago.

For that kind of use, owning Tweeter, with absolute control on content and a user base stoked up on anger against "the Libs", "the pedophiles", "the establishment", "the deep state", etc. would be invaluable.
Crazy game for sure. The best WC ever (or over the last 20 anyway). This is a classic UX problem with automation: there are times when you don't know the operating condition. It's better to prompt with opt-out.

Mac OS prompts, and that's better than anything else.

Snaps are also abysmally slow. And while I'm complaining, they also occupy my `mount` output so that's annoying.
Humans also cannot transmit radio signals without special equipment either, so your point means nothing. Anyway, you start calling names means you are out of ideas.

You can call me wrong all you want, but these are public airwaves, and the laws disagree with you. That Finnish law you quoted makes exceptions for public channels, so you are wrong about that as well. You can stand on your misguided principles and technological fetishism thinking that radio receivers mean that the airwaves are somehow different than those same exact airwaves with a different spectrum of EMF.
If you want to take a Christian perspective, the word "commit" is used to emphasize that the individual took specific action as opposed to "omit" meaning they failed to take proper action to prevent evil.

You could also use e.g. nginx to cache the site you don't need Cloudflare for that.
YouTube created that problem by incentivizing longer videos. And now we have videos with tons of fluff.

Similarly Google incentivizes longer webpages, so now we have recipes that start with a novella about grandma’s cooking before showing the actual recipe.

It used to be nice to see a video’s thumbs up to thumbs down ratio to know if you’ve been click baited or not before watching the whole video. But that signal has been removed now too.
There is a non negligible probability that Russia will fracture.

I'd still like to watch the old episodes of HBO's Real Sex. As far as I know, that was never available on their streaming platforms. I guess they were going for "Prestige TV", and Real Sex was too close to late-night smut. Even on torrents, I can only find a few episodes.
Some are obvious and others surprising to me, but I'm very glad they mention the way "American" is used in the US. It always ticked me off but I never felt like I could mention it due to how widespread it is. Now I have somewhere to point to if I want to bring it up, kind of like how French people can point to the DGLFLF if someone uses the term nègre nowadays.
Is someone who is no longer having children but is still a major team player at their employer “mostly dead”?
Most of these languages are neither dead nor dying. They are just niche.

I just started learning APL this year. It is still actively developed and no you don't need a special keyboard. Plus we have unicode now which makes the special symbols a non-issue these days.

Same with most of the other languages. There is Pharo and Squeak for Smalltalk, the pascal community has free pascal. Sure those communities might not be huge but they are not in acute danger of vanishing any time soon.

And COBOL is still carrying the economy.

Now some languages like ALGOL might actually be dying, sure.

Natural languages are considered dead when they lose their last native speaker. Similarly when the last person being able to use a programming languages dies, we can consider that language dead.

Which means that we have lots of languages that died at childbirth but once a programing language has managed to go over a certain popularity threshold, it is very hard to kill.

Languages don't need to win any popularity contests to be alive. Language maximalism in the sense that you need to be one of the most popular languages or you are considered a failure and dead is just silly.
Are you claiming overturning abortion laws was done on the pretext of protecting foetuses (who are a minority)?

Randomness is definitely true. My cousin was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor at two years old. Two! The prognosis was that at absolute best, she would live to 16 years of age.

However! Happily, she is alive, well, and living every day like it’s her last at ~31 now. Been in remission for at least 10-15 years or something, I’m not sure the exact specifics.

But what a horrible, arbitrary curse to put on a 2 year old child. Her family lived with ours for a number of years and I vividly remember her beautiful curly red hair falling out repeatedly. I also remember the “fuse import” (no clue if that’s the actual name) buried in her chest. And all of this happening while she’s learning to walk, talk, and progress through elementary school.
Having watched every possible minute of every competition since France '98, I haven't seen any of this World Cup.

Cloudflare is trivial to set up. You should definitely use it. If you use a mainstream static site generator, you can just deploy to Cloudflare Pages as well.
I used to think of Facebook's attempt to control, own and lock our social graph as a manifestation of the Fahrenheigt 451 approach to dystopian society.

In that sense, Twitter/Musk idea of of society borrows its ideas from 1984 instead.
You still need extra code to check that the format variant matches your expectations. I guess you could go very bare-bones and just assume that it’s in the right format and only check for buffer overflows, at the cost that errors will be harder to diagnose when the format is wrong. And you’d still have the overhead of the larger metadata structures of TGA.

The fact is, none of the existing formats is a perfect fit for the embedded use-case here. It makes sense to introduce a new, simple and straightforward format if it addresses certain typical use-cases better than existing formats do.
