I don't have much in the way of social, but I've kept Instagram mostly to look at locations when I travel.

Instagram seems to have leveled off, but I personally don't find the Instagram annoyances nearly as dire as the TikToks posted to Youtube Stories.

Those seem the most annoying, and especially fake.. with all the amateur comedians, clickbait-y vid behaviors and voiceover triggers, and fake couple dynamics.

Instagram seems almost normal in comparison.

Yeah, I’m not a web dev, but I assumed there were one or more technical limitations that led to its decline.

I liked the interface, and the familiarity when seemingly every small-to-medium forum online was built on it.

The objection here is more structural than technical. The famous dropbox objection is 'anyone could do this' - even though they might not have the wherewithal to do so. The objection here is that the open source project is relying on a closed source paid service to do all the heavy lifting.
Someone is going to need to foot the bill, which means this project will eventually have to answer some tough questions about funding, and what the project actually delivers.

Actually, the signed hashes tend to only provide a out-of-band chain of accountability.

The old Microsoft signed drivers and Application publishers certs were not perfect. This was because the chain of trust eventually breaks down in time (insufficient strength, leaked signing key re-pack, and most people didn't check installer signatures).

FOSS projects can also suffer integrity rot on rare occasion, but it tends to be individuals feigning ignorance as their BS is reverted.

Archive.org allows one to often search for the CD hash and files of interest in the Wayback Machines snapshot copy of the publishers website. This method does still require the publishers cert or known hash to verify contents are valid. =)
Peer review exists to make sure that the scientific methodology is sound. It doesn't protect from systematic incompetence or malice. So if you can make something sound reasonable, there's no reason they wouldn't publish you, especially for something so spectacular. On the other hand, your downfall will be even harder if the inevitable replication confirms that you screwed up. I can't imagine why this group would risk their entire career, because they already screwed this up once. If they did so again, they're done.
I would love to hear some recommendations for ways to build communities and discussion forums that are a bit more robust.

Been seeing a minor resurgence of phpBB sites, as a reaction to the problems inherent in Discord and Reddit. When I research forum software, it seems like the space has more or less stagnated over the past 20 years, except for a couple paid offerings (like Discourse, which is $50/month).

Some of the options I like in this space are newsgroups, majordomo mailing lists (with public archives), and phpBB. These pieces of software all had a long lifespan, and have some good qualities when it comes to archiving discussions and ease of use. Obviously, newsgroups are no longer a viable option. It does seem like we could do better these days, without outsourcing our communities to Reddit or Discord.

Maybe a problem keeping it in a pressure vessel, but it might be possible to produce such high pressures at very small scales in solid state devices without use of a pressure vessel. In that case it would be more about changing the shape or bond angle of some nearby material to distort the electric field and induce the desired pressure.

The apartment that my friend lived in is stereotypical. It had probably 300-400 units over seven floors. Not a 5-over-1, but similar design. Cloistered hallways with balconies facing exterior or to interior pool/parking garage areas.

In that building there were two elevators - one "normal" for US standards and one oversized, presumably for moving.

I don't think it's unreasonable to have such a setup for a large building, particularly with how large furniture and beds can be.

It is a complete grift which everyone and their llamas are somehow immediately AI companies, when they are all hitting the OpenAI API. So when it goes down their entire business is down as well.

This hype is going to eventually subside with lots of losers and a tiny minority of winners when the price increases come in.

The only winners of this race to the bottom is Stability.ai who are already open sourcing everything and OpenAI cannot afford to open source their flagship AI product(s) for free.

> People who cling to property values as a gatekeeper are actually arguing against their self-interest, usually without knowing it.

That is rarely the reason, in my experience. It is merely an accusation that gets thrown around by people who want the NIMBYs to look shallow. There are usually far more specific reasons for opposing new development.

There are always just a few, however, who do want the money. So they cash in and sell out to developers, and then move to a less dense neighborhood. Eventually the whole neighborhood character does in fact change, it just takes years.
I don't think this is the bystander effect at work here.

(Perhaps initially, as it went from mostly clean to compromised, there was bystander effect plus other effects)

An individual would be suicidal to join the LA Sheriff's force and try to solve it from within.

US military force needs to take control of the department, restructure the command, flush the compromised, and monitor as control is transferred back. That is what we would do if the force were compromised by a foreign force, and the same logic applies.

Most people even if they actually have legitimate concerns do not possess the aptitude to make meaningful decisions. They will make whatever micro change they can as long as it's morally correct in their head simply for the fact that it errs to the green side vs the corporate/consumer side. Obviously, this just leads to shooting yourself in the foot.

Here's something I'm seeing on recent LCDs, they show this popup (with a countdown) when you first turn it on:

> In compliance with California Energy Commission, the brightness and contrast settings cannot be adjusted in the sRGB mode. Would you like to remain in the sRGB mode?

1. LCDs already only use maybe 15W. Changing the brightness makes almost no difference.

2. Changing the contrast makes absolutely no difference in terms of power usage

3. sRGB mode implies I'm going to see the image the way it's meant to be displayed. Switching to racing mode (whatevr the hell that means), among 10 other options like "movie mode" to bypass it sounds like a non-starter especially given that LCD menus are practically impossible to use. Disabling brightness makes the monitor likely to find the trash can as it will be uncomfortable by default if the room lighting is too dim or too high compared to the monitor.

4. A popup should not be a thing on a monitor. It already has the worst GUI on earth. The physical buttons are randomly placed. They react in literally 1-2 seconds each time you manage to even press the right one. And they switch up the GUI and button designs every 6 months with someone who has zero know-how.

5. LCDs are beta tech and there is always something a vendor can do to massively improve. Examples include: input lag from bad programming, viewing angle phenomena, VRR which doesn't really fix anything in the long run but was still easily sellable, the future when they fix strobing which is just a small engineering exercise of rearranging timings, but the difference will be big enough to merit buying a new LCD. Just the intro of IPS which didn't even fix the viewing angle but substantially improved it had almost every tech enthusiast trashing his old LCD for new ones, circa 2007.

6. Every single CCFL LCD ever made is now in the trash and each contains mercury to boot.

7. Vendors also lie to the consumer to trick them into buying new LCDs, further reducing any green benefit. A massive example of this is when they switched to LED backlights and every single piece of marketing material, from in store to manufacturer deliberately called them "LED monitors" to make it seem like this is a new technology.
> The problem with Jira...is that it isn't for you.

It's more or less one of those enterprise software packages that will be depended upon in larger orgs, because "nobody ever got fired for choosing $VENDOR". That sort of software tries to do a bit of everything, provide lots of features and customizability, sometimes at the expense of being more complex, bloated and slow.

Most people working on their own projects, when fully in control of the decision of what software they want to pick to best suit their own direct needs, might settle on something like Trello or even Kanboard instead. Personally, I self-host OpenProject because its features are a nice fit for my needs, even if it's still a bit sluggish (Rails app, limited hardware resources). Honestly, the performance of Kanboard was blazing fast when compared to anything out there - which is in no small part thanks to how focused and minimalist it is, which in some cases will be exactly what you'll want.

As another good example, I'd also put something like the Oracle database in same category: there will be many projects out there developed around it, as well as lots of knowledge, training, as well as entire professions built around it. But most people won't necessarily reach for something like Oracle XE for their own personal projects, they'll instead pick something like PostgreSQL or MySQL/MariaDB, because both of those are a little bit simpler to get started with and keep running, while still provide sufficient functionality.

This is an anecdote, but recently I launched all of the mentioned database options one after another in containers, for some testing. Oracle took around 10-20 minutes to start up an de usable. MySQL took about 5-10 minutes to become available for connections. PostgreSQL needed just 2 minutes. That's even before I get into how much data Oracle created in a container volume meant for data persistence (an order of magnitude more than MySQL or PostgreSQL).

I experienced similar behavior when setting up my own trial/testing license of Jira because I needed to do some integration dev work - with the resources given to it, I found it to be pretty sluggish and creating new issues took multiple seconds, which does get annoying when you also want to edit some of the fields, or have to do it often as a part of your work. Though I don't have exact numbers for that, I'm afraid.

Don't read it, it's apparently too stressful for you. You are right, I assume some knowledge but I don't know if this discourse is productive, you are too hung up on things that don't matter.

Wolfram Alpha tells me that to bring 10 sq. cm of the material to 1GPa would require 18x the bite force of a T-Rex. I don't consider the inside of a dinosaur's mouth "room pressure" either, but I could imagine a reasonably-sized housing capable of producing that force.

Another comparison for scale: It is 1/6th the pressure at which artificial diamonds are manufactured.

> erythritol is naturally produced by your body

I often see this being used as an excuse to say that because we produce it, it isn't bad for you. Thing is that we produce it in tiny tiny amounts... then we take a spoonful of 'monk fruit' and add it to our coffee. There's nothing 'natural' about that.

> If you’re worried about erythritol, it’s pretty easy to avoid.

Not really. Just a random google...

"MONK FRUIT IN THE RAW"

https://www.amazon.com/Natural-Sweetener-Erythritol-Sugar-Fr...

Look at the first item on the list, it is a bag of erythritol, packaged to be 'monk fruit'.

Almost every single 'monk fruit' product out there is a bag of erythritol. Look at the shelf in your local grocery store. Eventually, people just give up and buy the bag since they have been told 'sugar' is bad.

That's the real tragedy here.

Google Groups has survived 22 years. How many self-hosted Discourse forums can say the same? If you're working on a new, small side-project like a new formal evaluator, are you going to want to spend your limited administrative bandwidth onboarding new contributors, responding to feature suggestions, talking to users, etc, or are you going to want to spend it trying to wrangle self-hosted forum administration and figure out email delivery? the article has a one-line tossed off aside at the end to say "Certainly self-hosted FOSS communities can die, but these are functions of community activity itself rather than the service they’re hosted on", but without considering that the absolute most crucial time for community resources to survive is through periods of lackluster or nonexistent community involvement. If you have a Google Group full of, say, formal methods programming experts, then it can spend 5 years fallow and still be chock-full of absolutely vital historical resources and even spring back into life as people start using it again for discussion. That sort of longevity just can't exist if someone stopped paying the hosting bills for their self-hosted TLA discourse forum 3 years in.
I cannot disagree with this. When I was young not a day went by were I did not see some butterflies in the summer and autumn. Even in the small City where I grew up.

Now that I think of it, I have not even seen a butterfly in many years, this includes hiking it the woods.

What a shame, well with global warming and the powers that be still doubling down on fossil fuels, a big correction is probably on its way, similar to this story posted here earlier about tree roots. We had 50+ years to do something about climate change, as usual profits came first.

Only in California will you find someone who can say with a straight face: "we need more housing" followed by "no we can't allow that housing". It seems to me that Californian's (at least the activists) like the idea of more housing, they just hate more housing.

It's almost like the folks screaming about "affordable housing" figured out they like yelling about the problem more than they actually want the problem to be solved.

propaganda doesn't work if you create new, BS reasons from scratch. you gotta have an actual lever or two, something that you can latch on and hype up. you amplify real issues, not spawn fake ones.

this is very effective, esp. in the US, because we've ignored huge systemic problems across multiple demographics for decades. there are a lot of issues to hammer.

less so in Europe, but there are still real issues to hammer.

social media made it far easier to track and chart these issues and how people respond to them -- in real-time. and since most are publicly traded companies, they have no incentive to actually make things better -- they gotta keep that stock price up.
Just to be clear I was describing what happens, not implying a moral judgement either way.

Religious leaders are in no way barred from discussing politics from the pulpit by the way. They are prohibited from speaking for or against individual candidates by name or risk losing their non-profit status but they can definitely advocate for their positions on certain issues and leave it to their members to conclude which candidates that most aligns with (and given how peer pressure / communication works, it’s not a secret which candidate that turns out to be). Anything else would be a 1A problem. And religious leaders can ALSO express personal views about what their preferred candidate happens to be outside of the pulpit. And Trump made it even less problematic for politically active religious leaders [1].

CEOs also definitely advocate for/against policy within the company. “I think legislation X is bad for us / our industry”. Some CEOs even cross the line and try to retaliate against/incentivize for your vote (it’s hard with anonymity in general but much easier with mail in ballots).

None of this must apply to unions which regularly endorse candidates by name and have so for a very very long time.

So regardless of good or not, all this does happen. I haven’t thought well enough about what kind of electioneering regulations is good or bad, but generally I’d do some research on countries that I view as having a healthier democratic process (Canada, France, Germany, Norway, etc) to figure out how they deal with the various issues.

Anyway, I don’t know what you’ve taken away from my post or why it triggered you so. What could I clarify there to help you interpret the post in the spirit that it was intended to?
