It's an awful language w/o formal grammar and plenty of the same problems people knew SQL has had for ages: modules, variety of collections other than the only main kind.

Writing in Cypher takes a lot of guessing, and there's no real explanation for why sometimes things that seem like they should work -- don't. It feels like a language designed by an amateur, built around a gimmick syntax of (x)-[y]->(z), but as soon as you need something a little more complex, there's nothing.

GP is in a completely different category of things. It has a deep mathematical formalism behind it, a unique and worth of exploring computation model.

Cypher in comparison to GP is like my 3 y.o doodles compared to Rembrandt's doodles. Superficially, both are a bunch of squiggly lines...
Mastodon is federated and thus more resistant to user-hostile takeovers, unlike other alternatives like post.news that are basically clones of Twitter that aren't owned by Musk yet. That's why I moved to a local Mastodon instance. nostr is tied to toxic Web3 bullshit so I didn't even consider it.
Free speech (in the "I can say whatever I can get away with" sense) cuts both ways. If you disagree with a community, they will use their favorite language to cut you down. I disagree with that sense of free speech, as it does away with measured dialog around issues in favor of pitchforks.
It doesn't matter anymore why people left (and barely any people actually left.) What the OP brought up is that Musk vastly overpaid for the thing and he's got to wring money out of it, so even if you love (especially if you love) twitter you need an alternative. There's no reason not to inflict any sort of humiliation on a person who has no alternative to you.

I read his post as, "Mainstream news outlets within countries tend to be biased towards the interests of that country." I think that's a more good faith interpretation, and leads to a sort of water is wet type observation. That said I do think he more or less self-hijacked his own post by specifically naming Voice of America which is practically begging for your claims.
More often than not, during the development cycle. I keep looking at my AWS ECS cluster and services to check what all environment variables have been set. Some ENVs were not readily available in the project repository since they were configured as secrets in SSM's parameter store.

While setting up an application or debugging some issue, I kept looking for env values for a set in different environments by logging in to the AWS console, which is painstakingly slow and hampers productivity.

Hence the tool.
It annoys the hell out of me that every airline has “board first” as their status perk instead of “board last but the overheads bins are reserved for you”.

This argument depends on whether there is a 'natural' biochemical scaffolding for life that resembles what we have on Earth. There's no reason in principle that a totally different biochemistry that made use of racemic mixtures couldn't work, but here we run into the wall of being unable to imagine forms of life substantially from our own. It's very easy to get into a loop of circular reasoning when answering questions like why life on Earth has a preferred handedness.
That sound you hear is OPs point flying over your head
I suppose it's pretty battle-hardened by now, but I'd be afraid to ever touch that code for fear of introducing a SQL injection.
> For all but the most trivial of software this step is likely to fail, and often fail big and cryptically. Then you get to figure out what packages to install from your distro's repos to fix all these errors.

In my experience, the vast majority of the time the installation instructions list the necessary packages for at least Debian-style and Redhat-style distros. Build instructions for Windows tend to be much worse. though if the software supports Windows at all, you are slightly more likely to have an installer or at least precompiled binary because build tooling availability and build experience is so much worse on Windows.
Popular ECAD tool Altium Designer was written in Delphi originally, but I think they moved to C# a few years ago.
yes: a simple scope is really just two lenses in the right positions with some wrapping around it. I sat around with lenses of known focal lengths, the wikipedia page for keplerian telescope, and just sort of 3d printed enclosures until everything was the right distance from each other.
I've long since stopped tracking the current state of snap related issues so I don't have any relevant links to provide.

1) For auto updates, you can find plenty of examples via Google/Reddit searches that eventually tie back to discussions on the Ubuntu discourse forums where the snap developers weigh in and explicitly state they are not going to provide a way to disable snap auto updates.

2) For home directory pollution, IIRC the objections were raised on the bug tracker for snapd so once again it should be possible to dig up the discussions around that pretty easily.

3) For the 72 hour thing, you can find people complaining about the lack of proper logging easily enough where eventually someone mentions the 72 hour auto purge problem. I verified it myself by going through the source code for snapd with the comments in the code mentioning trying to keep memory usage down. I recall scarcely believing anyone would do something that bone headed but here we are. This may be a case where no one has "officially" raised an issue on their forums or bug tracker though that ties the two things together though.

Hope that helps you track that down.
This is the traditional view, but opinions have shifted recently. European colonization was driven mostly by the population boom accompanying the industrial revolution. The military advantage was real in the late 18th and 19th centuries, but that was brief compared to the timeline of the traditional explanation of Europe always being at war.

For example Ming China was the first gunpowder empire and was militarily competitive with if not superior to the European countries of the time. Qing China was caught resting on its laurels after it had accomplished the millennia-long Chinese goal of subduing all neighboring regions. In the case of China's defeat by European powers it was a combination of European ascendency and Chinese military stagnation at the time.

Tl;dr: Trump should moderate “both sides” because it would be entertaining.
For me Mastodon + my "Say Hi" calls every few days + groups Signal are a much more useful and less toxic combination. I miss forums.

Now, more about Mastodon itself:

In short, Mastodon is less toxic and the feed doesn't artificially amplify content made to generate engagement.

People tend to mistake free speech and discourse artificially shaped to pump ads in your eyeballs and that shows. Your content IS moderated but more subtly, and your mod is an advertising company.

On Mastodon, you'll _still_ see weird crap on the federated feed (including controversial stuff, like xenophobic content), but quickly you'll realise that the ratio of truly disturbing, aggressive or xenophobic content is much, much lower.

This is partially due to:

- the fact that algorithmic feeds rely on controversial, divisive, emotional responses as they turn into higher engagement.

- the fact that people are still weird, but _way less_ evil and mean.

You can think of Mastodon as a mix of an internet forum and a chat from 2005. For instance, the default client UX can be clunky (no sweet ad revenue $$), but it doesn't go in your way like the dark patterns on Twitter (e.g. the chronological feed resetting to the algorithmic one ever x days).

Also, you can always change the default client. Elk is neat.

Mastodon will perform worse in terms of reach, but better in terms of engagement (let's appreciate the irony here).

One of the comments says:

> The best alternative to twitter is no twitter

And I 100% agree with that. Better go outside and touch grass, pet a dog. I wish internet forums were more utilised, because I use micro-blogging mostly for announcements regarding my projects and this format encourages shallow discourse.

Edit: be more specific about the UX issues pertaining mostly to the default client. Thanks @wowfunhappy
Is that why only use applications written for CPython and not the JVM, .NET CLR, nor V8?

There may be valid reasons to only ever have one type of runtime installed, but most people aren't that fuzzy about the compilation target of the programs they use, as long as it runs and is relatively easy to install.

Mostly fail to see the value in the specific thing you're saying; essentially this is the sort of thing that e.g. free/open source ought to take care of regardless.

As in, this is "taken care of" when you agree to install the application; is there any serious reason to believe that security against an "installed application" from a repo benefits from this rather fine grained permission as opposed to what is already in place?

And of course the real issue is usually just "the web browser" which, hey, all bets are off.
This has been my experience with music programming as well, music (not audio - music) being a highly symbolic domain. The past-me that had not experienced first class symbolic programming support would not have believed how much easier it is in a symbolic language (in my case Scheme). The size of my music code in Scheme compared to C/C++ or Python is an order of magnitude smaller.
Less likely to take something seriously named after Nostradamus. I'm sorry but until it gets renamed it's hard to buy into it. It has huge backing from Jack Dorsey staking his reputation on it by tweeting about it but in all seriousness like for like replacements aren't useful. If this thing goes mainstream it won't be for the reasons it started and it's going to take 5+ years before that happens. Along with a rename.
IMHO ActivityPub the protocol is a a perfectly suitable alternative to other platforms. Not perfect, but good enough that I have no major objections. And the fact that it is currently in the lead makes it an easy choice.

Mastodon is currently the most popular software that implements that protocol. However, I think Mastodon is very flawed. There are many design decisions that are just awful both in the realms of UX and also software architecture.

Thankfully ActivityPub is an open protocol. Anyone can come up and make a competitor. And that's what I hope happens. Some other social platform(s) implement ActivityPub and replace Mastodon.

It's similar to how back in the day Apache was absolutely the dominant web server, but nowadays nginx is on top. Anyone out there reading this, please make the nginx of ActivityPub.
Conciousness and language in animals is a form of abstracted motor action planning*. If it turns out some plants are sentient (or even sapient) their "consciousness" will likely be different enough to deserve a new word.

I agree with you, same for religion imposed on kids, it plain brainwashing.
Religion has a few good things like the ten commandments at least, though.

Pushing gender identity on teenagers who do not even know how to urinate in a straight line and had no sexual intercourse yet is just plain wrong, always will be.The teens do not come up with these things themselves usually its often an external influence by highly irresponsible people pushing theit agenda.
To me this is more controversial than the abortion issue.

And thats right, I will openly oppose anyone who claims otherwise and I will certainly not die on any hill defending that.

I can agree to disagree and that is that.

All these who did the gender changes recently appear to be still unhappy and frustrated. Show me the success stories.

This is nothing new by the way, there have been a number of thai boys for example undergoing hormone therapy and gender change more than 25 years ago, they often would work in prostitution. The difference is, they perhaps liked the idea and did it for sexualbor monetary reasons and came up with the idea independently, not via social media.
Many police officers do know, they just see respect for rights as an impediment to their "real" job of enforcing order. The culture largely teaches them that they're in a war against criminals and that anything they do to win that war is justified [1].

Sorry if my question was worded badly. Obviously, some people are playing games in the browser - perhaps I should have asked more specifically what the appeal is, e.g. is it mostly small casual games like what Flash used to be used for, or do people actually play more invested games?

And sorry again if the answer to these questions is so obvious to some of you that the question itself sounds dumb, but I'm simply not experienced with this topic.

Actually no, human life only started to be dominated by this after the shift from hunter gatherer to agrarian societies.

whether that's worth the cost of telemetry is another issue.
They didn't.

But if the amount of available calories drops below the necessary amount, then famine occurs. How bad this is depends on how much overshoot, and how prepared the population is to find alternatives.

In Irish history, there is the "Great Famine". During the 1800s, maybe 20% of the population of Ireland and the Scandinavian countries emigrated to north america.

The current trend of global warming and increasing harvests started in the later 1800s. Then came mechanised farming, artificial fertilizers, and science.

Keyboard ergonomics is mostly contributed by factors other than the layout.

Switching to a different layout has a lot of complications:

- Steep learning curve: it might take months or even years to reach typing speeds of QWERTY

- Low software support: it's tricky to switch to a custom layout everywhere
Some apps and games might read physical keycodes and the only workaround is to use the keyboard with custom firmware (e.g. QMK[1])

If you're willing to improve keyboard ergonomics, check out ergonomic mechanical keyboards. Most popular row-staggered layout is horrible for hand ergonomics and it only can be fixed with a keyboard that has a different physical key layout. r/ErgoMechKeyboards[2] is a good starting point.

Yes, lots of people do. Not as much long story based games, but more arcadey/casual games. This is especially common for kids using computers at school. Just think about all the old Flash games, that style of game is still popular.
I did that for a while, but both the app and Twitter’s website would always switch me back to the inorganic feed. And honestly, it was fine before — most of the recommendations were appropriate.

Well, most used phones are sold rather than destroyed, and get well past their last update. So maybe a quarter the phone-time in the world is post-end-of-update. Plus, many manufacturers offer brand-new phones which cost under 100 USD (look for Doogee X95 for example - 80 bucks or so).
"It's a graphical-ish git client for emacs."

I'd describe it more as a set of text menus for git operations.

It's a text UI, not a graphical one.
The problem with goto is that it is an unbelievably primitive operator. It can be used to implement any logic at all, and therefore it does not express any logic very clearly. It's a bad way to express intent in code. Aside from the exceptions discussed in the article, there is always a better, clearer way to express logic than to use goto statements.

The same is true of while loops. Aside from a few cases where they are required, they are always better rewritten with a less primitive operator (for, etc). The arguments that programmers today make in defense of while are quite similar to the arguments programmers used to make in defense of goto.
I've got invites (and am not otherwise affiliated with the project) if you want to test it out. Username @ Gmail works.
If you take a look at historical media, the breadth of opinions you can find written today, especially if we include online media, is staggering compared to the past. For example, defending homosexuality as a legitimate life choice would have gotten you packed and sent away to the crazy house, and no paper would have ever written about this before the late 80s or so. Same with overt atheism in much public discourse, with respect for native rights, black rights, Irish and Italian rights and many others. Opposition to Israel used to be swiftly boycotted in any public forum. Opposition to the Vietnam War could get you in jail when it started. Communist sympathies too.

Apart from overt racism (which you can still easily find online, even among pretty popular figures in New media), virtually no position that used to be expressed in public discourse has disappeared, and many many ideas that used to be unthinkable and definitely unspeakable are now common place.

So where exactly is this terrible mob?
I'm not. NPR and most media outlets dictate public opinion and have a blatant agenda behind doing so that has nothing to do with always being factual or unbiased. Having worked for an NPR affiliate, I think I know at least something about this. Do the thought experiment again and ask yourself whether NPR has a racial bias and whether they're worth listening to.
Weird to bring reputation into it. The original formulation doesn't say that saying whatever should be from from social consequences.
If plants are conscious, then it stands to reason to assume every life form is conscious -> a bacterium is conscious -> any cell in our body is conscious.
I tried to google "single cell consciousness" and found a few articles that briefly touch on the idea.
But then it doesn't take a leap of imagination to conjecture that my own consciousness is in fact the consciousness of a single "special" cell. It might be located in the brain, but not necessarily.
