> KeePass does today

Not yet: https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/issues/8214 (and https://github.com/keepassxreboot/keepassxc/pull/8825)

And even if they will, they're at mercy of e.g. Apple letting anyone to replace iCloud Keychain with a third-party password manager. Which is also not possible yet. Probably the same for Android, although I'm not sure what's the situation there today. (But whatever it is, I would say that "well, don't use Apple/Google devices" is not an option for many in the current duopoly.)

All this can be solved, but the issue that is is not - today. So, today, I'm voicing my discontent.

> and then you can use your password manager as your Passkeys provider on all your devices

In an ideal world - yes. Sadly, I can't do this today with passwords, even though the world had spend many decades on trying to make things as seamless as possible. Over last year I've had to manually open a password manager on one device and type a password on another more than a few times.

The most obvious example is logging in to a streaming service on a smart TV - one step away from the normal conditions (scan-QR-code-on-my-phone flow not working) and typing password is the only option. Netflix is gonna love passkeys so users will possibly have slightly harder time logging in on others' devices ;-) BTW, sharing passkeys is also not exactly a solved issue - yet (even though some vendors made some promises).

Then, there's a case of accessing from untrusted devices (say, a net cafe). Theoretically, Passkeys should be a drastically superior solution to passwords - I would be able to plug in a security key, and it won't leak the keys, so even if a machine has a keylogger or network sniffer I'm still fine. In practice, however, enrolling a physical security key (Yubikey, Nitrokey, Solo) requires having it physically available, so it's always going to be inconvenient - and this is not changing until the standard extends or changes. Worse for multiple keys (I have four so every Webauthn sign-up is a pain in the ass). Because I'm most certainly not installing my password^W passkey manager on some untrusted machine.

Do you know what happens when you pay blackmail or protection money? It keeps happening, and at more cost each iteration.

If they came out with a reasonable set of conditions to do API access, people would be a lot less upset. But they didn't. And those API fees are guaranteed to go only up, up, and further up.

Time to get out of reddit when the gettin's good.
Uhm.. Sorry? This is something that you do one time impulsively? This is something that you do once and then never again, because you're out unless your company has unhealthy ethics.

This is a short-sighted argument. A list of who cares:

* Any media reporting on what’s happening within Reddit. Remember when WSB was all over the news cycles? Picture that but with some malicious mod/admin setting somebody up to take the fall for equities fraud.

* Any person or entity with legal or fincial muscle looking to protect their reputation or product. You don’t want Wizards of the Coast sending the Pinkertons to your door because they think you’re selling stolen goods.

* Anyone who values their own reputation in the internet. Imagine being an aspiring politician and having somebody insert racial slurs into your historical posts.

The issue isn’t somebody being petty, it’s that there is potential for systemic abuse of power and trust.

I would pay for an Apollo app subscription model since the main reddit site and app are comically bad in UI/UX. But as we've seen in the last month reddit is not interested in that kind of option.

I’m curious about how this works: it Apollo is going to be unable to operate at the new prices, would it be possible to release a version of the App that takes the user’s API key instead? And then the user can pay for Reddit API access directly?
Mobile includes mobile web browsers.
Yes. Stats about average lifetimes are quite misleading & useless until you filter out child mortality.
Is there a definition of intelligence that rules out large language models, but that does not also rule out large portions of humanity? A lot of people would readily admit that they don't have programming aptitude and would probably end up just memorizing things. Do we say those people are not intelligent?

It seems to me that the perceived difference is mostly in being able to admit that you don't know something, rather than make up an answer -- but making up an answer is still something that humans do sometimes.
I've practically lived inside German trains, had my business meetings with more people inside them (there are wagons for that btw) and wouldn't define them as noisy.

When someone is rude, others will call them to attention. Big exception is bar wagon when there is some soccer match, nevertheless that is only on that part. Elsewhere you'd find silence being respected.
If they are insignificant, then it's a really stupid bad-PR hill to die on.
Maybe I am missing something, but the Framework focused posts I have seen seem to mostly come from long active accounts by actual community members. Think this is more simply a case of the product being interesting to the people on here.

Framework isn't even engaging in any tactics that may help to get more attention organically, like Cloudflare when they group a lot of releases into a very small window to dominate the frontpage.
Can’t Reddit just have a tiered API: one pricing for ad-free API and another for ad-supported? Surely a system could be put in place to ensure compliance.

I have to think there was a path here for Reddit to get its ad money without alienating so many users and mods.

The Binge Purge
What does this look like in practice? Reddit devs extend their ad platform into the API and then make a mandatory design guideline, which they require with whatever app has x API demand level?

I guess the Reddit premium users just have to use Reddit apps to get it ad free?
So if the impact of the change is so small, why does the CEO of this company with thousands of employees feel remotely compelled to concoct a fantasy story where the Apollo developer is an evil villain that is so unbelievable and verifiably unbelievable it doesn't last six hours before blowing up in his face?

Even if you completely accept these policy changes as a long-term positive for reddit's growth, how can you have confidence in that leadership? How can you trust anything they tell you as an investor?

Steve has some kind of problem. It's been apparent before with editing comments in the live db, and it's apparent now. This problem is a risk for reddit. "Don't lie on or about phone calls" is pretty basic risk management and he can't handle it.
There's a question about whether one would be the third wheel or marginalized, and near-term you wouldn't be able to answer that with 100% confidence, but you might get sufficient confidence.

Early good signs include (if pre-seed) all three of you getting the same equity deal.

Then I'd consider things like how candid, honest, and thoughtful they are.

But if the startup's premise or initial execution looks ethically questionable, run away.

(For example, I wouldn't trust a situation where the other two might as well say "We're exploiting users or gig workers to their disadvantage, ignoring regulations, self-dealing, doing pretty much anything in cryptocurrency/blockchain, and/or building an investment scam house of cards that we'll cash out of before anyone realizes... but the two of us totally wouldn't collude to screw you, even though we'd have similar incentive to also do that.")
In the US, there's a lot of "unlimited" options with then absolutely brutal throttling after. Comcast is 2x anyone else's speed with 1.5Mbit down. I think maybe there's some new plans that just say "depriorotize" and users might see better but I don't have good data on that, but would love to know. Pay per use has been 10$/GB for well over a decade & no one's budging.

I'd love to see Amazon cook up a 5GB free then a much more reasonable pay per use rate. Give us like $3/GB and many users should probably consider it. Also, no funny games with special rates or restrictions for hotspot/tethering.

And if you could be as awesome as GoogleFi and make data only devices basically free, that would be a good indicator of your honesty & agreeableness.
Wow this looks great. I really like the additions of presence and the stats about review times. It seems seamlessly integrated.

> In linear algebra the column space of a matrix is the same as the column space of the product with itself transposed: C(A) = C(AA^T).

I think you need A to be a square matrix since AA^T is a square matrix. So the result is no true in general.

Can you point to a source for this for those of us not familiar with his comments?
Ah, interesting. To be fair, super-majority of users on mobile are already authenticated in the app, so I don’t think it would be any loss. I guess, maybe for people who don’t want to be tracked about their NSFW browsing.

Still curious how Twitter was a pass, but Tumblr/maybe Reddit are no go. Maybe the way ads are being shows when there’s NSFW content?

Is the generated code any good?

I wouldn’t ever use any of the code figma provides for ios currently but i also still use xib extensively. But i also it’s very hard for other developers who have not had extensive experience with that sort of ui building to understand and decipher something that has shit tons of trait based constraints and properties embedded in it.
Also, the conflicts that happen should any 2 people work on the same file are horrible.

So, swiftui is inevitable and seems preferable to me to the kind of code figma produces which gives no indication of the final result.
Lemmy seems like the right alternative but it needs work. The docs to setup your own server are all wrong and outdated (docker). I just went through it a day ago and I had to fix half of what it said in order to get it working correctly. (Yes I will do a pull-req to improve this once I am satisfied with my setup)

The other issue with federation is picking an instance. There needs to be more initial connection between instances. By this I mean it needs to be much easier to subscribe to a community on another instance. Right now you have to copy paste parts of the URL into your instances url.

Some sort of shared authentication across the fediverse that identified your instance would enable something like this.

Some of us are just really excited about a laptop which is intentionally built for upgrades, repairs, and re-usability.

The current trend of the household name manufacturers is to solder and glue as many components together as possible, meaning if one thing inside goes ka-plooey outside the warranty then the whole unit is shot, forcing you to buy another. They say their goal is to get their products thinner and thinner (for some reason) but of course we all know the likely real reason is designed obsolescence.

Edit: I don't own a Framework laptop yet, but the 16 is near the top of the list of contenders when I upgrade within the next year or so.
And this belief is based on what exactly? If you think critically about this, it stands to reason that the impact should not be small if it's worth it to Reddit to get people off of 3rd party mobile apps and put eyes on ads in the first party app.
What an extremely strange equivalence you've drawn.
> My favorite part about this is how it basically forces services to accept this as a functional scenario.

Maybe some services will accept it, but others will not. When I tried to sign in to Microsoft Teams from Safari yesterday it presented a screen that said that Teams will only load on Safari if I disable tracking prevention for the Teams site. So unless users put additional pressures on services to offer support for Apple those services may just force users to accept tracking one way or another: either by disabling Safari's mitigations or using an alternative client that does not use such mitigations.
> 1. A gaping wound in your leg is probably less healthy than a moderately-high sugar consumption.

I didn't saw they were equivalent, I just said they're similar. They're in fact two totally different categories of "unhealthy", which is why I used them. Because over a 20-year period, most stab wounds go away completely, while the effects of sugar intake tend to compound.
An old coworker was laid off 3 times in 2 years. He kinda just couldn't pick a winner. My advice to him (and probably to you if this is your position) is searching for large, stable, boring companies that employ software people. That's what I did after my recent layoff, which has gone well.
I can’t help but wonder if there are “glitch tokens” for human minds, collectively or individually?
Yeah, the way people stop using a platform is usually by slowly losing interest and visiting less and less.

People making dramatic announcements of departure, on the other hand, are actually extremely engaged with the platform and rarely make good on their promise.
I was internally retasked from python to java full stack development. I have a bachelors in computer science, it's expected that I can just pick up, with a little time, any tool that fits the task. 95% of software development is just connecting pipes together. We are glorified digital plumbers for the most part, with only a few people working as the equivalent of civil engineers actually doing important design work.

If you chose to save a few bucks by hiring limited devs, that's a choice you made. In our orgs, the guy who moves CSS boxes for a living absolutely can write some SQL queries. Most places don't write database code, they write code that uses an ORM or other framework to interact with existing databases.

Personally, prescription medications are great: legal, consistent, safe, and effective.

Wellbutrin (NDRI) every morning. Helps with attention and alertness. It isn't classified as a stimulant, so I don't need to deal with the regulations around regular ADHD meds. It also helps with sexual dysfunction caused by other meds.

Why we need gRPC in browsers?

Honestly there is WebSockets - where you can send/receive almost anything.
The post mentions that Reddit calculates a $20M/yr opportunity cost to allowing Apollo to continue running as-is. Apollo is trying to say that $10M one-time is a bargain if Reddit truly believes the users are worth $20M/yr.

I don't think Apollo is using this argument as some sort of leverage. Reading through the post, they seem well aware that they are defenseless. They only have the court of public opinion.
That's how I already use reddit. I tried their mobile app and it was so garbage I just use it in browser in desktop mode to avoid the annoying "Reddit is better on mobile" lie that I had to click past every time. I really don't understand the difference and obsession of using old.reddit vs regular. As far as I can tell, it functions exactly the same only with a bit of UI uplift. As for adblock, the modern internet is virtually unusable without it. I don't care about how much it hurts webhosts, ads are intrusive, obnoxious, sometimes/often a security risk, and I'm never-ever-ever-ever going to click on one anyway.

> All we know is that he has tampered with the production database, not how often or how much.

Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus.
I agree but also the opposite is happening. The ability to identify Trends and Heuristics is seen as 'not scientific, or exact enough', and thus tossed out as worthless. So trends/heuristics can be both, over-played, and under-appreciated.

So guess there are two camps in the thread:

Psychology is either over-stating its findings, 'trying to be too exact when exact is not possible', so it's bad science.

Or when it does find something, it's deemed not exact enough, 'how dare you report a simple heuristic', so it's bad science.

Damned either way.
Will there be a next thing?

I mean, obviously folks will move on to something. But it seems like nobody has ever been able to make money off of huge Fark/Digg/Reddit style "big, public, multi-community" sites. I can't imagine anybody ever trying it again.

I feel like the overall trend is just moving back to smaller independent communities. Kind of like the webforum days but with Discord instances instead of webforums.
Hate SEO.
No, it's not the definition of tortious interference.

Reddit did not force or induce Apollo to break a contract with its own customers. Apollo unilaterally chose to do that because it could not afford continued access to Reddit's APIs, which Reddit was not under a legal obligation to continue providing at historical rates that Apollo had based its entire product around, despite long-standing advice not to do so.
This looks really neat. How easy is it to bolt on if you already have an existing design system without tailwind in use?
I don't really buy the phrase "go quiet" in terms of API usage, it does sound like the developer was backtracking when called out on it

The first article you link says:

> It is currently impossible to implement the HTTP/2 gRPC spec in the browser, as there is simply no browser API with enough fine-grained control over the requests. For example: there is no way to force the use of HTTP/2, and even if there was, raw HTTP/2 frames are inaccessible in browsers.

I read that to mean getting direct gRPC support in browsers is a significant effort. A large enough effort that there's currently no justification for diverting time and people from higher priority work.
Reddit activity has been used in court. Someone falsifying data is dangerous.
No code payments automation is a lie
Yeah a ramp-up of the fees or more than 30 days of notice would be enough.
They don't need to buy Apollo for it to shut down, that's the point. Apollo gets shut down with or without the buyout, so what exactly is the $10 million payment securing

> The US has added around 800,000 jobs in manufacturing employment over the last two years, employing around 13 million workers

It's too early to know, but if it turns out the solution to decades of economic misery for middle class blue collar workers was

1. 50% tariffs on China, and

2. $100B of subsidies to chip makers and green tech...

The reversal of Reaganomics we're living through will become permanent for at least another generation, and for good reason. Maybe a good time to start a company selling to the government.
As in glad you won't live long enough to see it?
It's a cool idea but I don't see how this is a viable long term solution, even if done at a large scale. Global oil production is on the order of 90M barrels/year, each barrel contains about 300 lbs of oil, so we're currently producing something like 27B lbs (~12B kg) of oil per year. I'm not sure how much of this ends up as CO2 in the atmosphere versus e.g. plastics, but I think it's safe to say we're probably emitting at least 1B lbs/kg carbon into the atmosphere per year just based on these numbers.

Seaweed grows quickly, but it's almost entirely water by mass, and this strategy will really only work in coastal regions. If this strategy was adopted at a wide scale globally how much time does this really buy us? And this isn't even considering things like the unknown ecological effects of the plan.
This is CHIPS and IRA at work, largely. The government decided we needed more manufacturing, paid people money to do that, and... now we have more factories and manufacturing jobs. People get all balled up over policy decisions like this because of politics, but the truth is that Keynesian economics is pretty simple to understand and it works exactly the way you'd expect it to work.
And you know he's reading these.

Steve, come on. Maybe Apollo shuts down, maybe you figure something out, but this whole thing becomes a lot easier to judge as an outsider if one group starts throwing mud like this. You should know better.
I have real sympathy for the developer of Apollo; at the same time it was such a huge and obvious risk to stake your entire business on the whims of another that I find it difficult to be 100% sympathetic.

It's like, I know this funded company that's doing a lot of work using intel SGX, if intel kill it, about 80 people lose the jobs and several million in VC goes up in smoke. It's insane to me that people are building businesses that can be killed by 3rd parties that they have no hope of influencing, and have no contracts with.

Another chapter of the internet drama concludes, I suppose. I wish them all the best and I'll be curious to see if reddit survives.
