I think you're right on the mark. Reddit doesn't want the old users who used it like an internet forum. Reddit wants to be another Instagram, TikTok, etc. As a business it's the "right" choice and the only way to make their investors money.

It's a shame we're losing the biggest internet forum, but it's been on this trajectory for a long time anyway.
Wasn't there a similar breach in India a few years ago?

There should be a clause that governments have to step down if breaches like that happen.

But until leaders, like Erdogan, themselves get doxxed and trolled, probably nothing will be done.
I save the posts I really care about in my browser bookmarks or copy/paste the valuable contents to a note on my phone. For subs, if I don't resub then I wasn't really interested. Starting a new anon account is a good way to get rid of the cruft in your home feed.
I’ve done this too. I almost went as far as creating my own version of fx with it but then decided like AWK if I wanted to do something really fancy I’d just write up a script or do that << EOF thing and do the code in line

It's cheaper/easier now to survive than any other time in history. The other thing that should be driving innovation/education is that knowledge is cheaper now than any other time in history. The combination of these two things should be driving innovation at an unparalleled pace. We're probably just behind the curve here and we are likely to see another massive explosion of innovation.
The existence of trans people is a real thing. If they don't like the terminology trans people use for it, fine, but that's a semantic argument. If they're denying that trans people exist, or that they'll go away if they're denied the right to use certain terminology, then it's a simple factual error.

Yeah, this would be great if users move and the right entities sponsor it. Again, HN is a good example, as YC seems to have the right incentives to keep this place nice.
Turkey's govt actually has quite a robust IT infrastructure and the Turkish citizens can do pretty much anything through the turkiye.gov.tr portal. It's really useful, you can even cancel subscriptions to services and utilities from there. You can book appointments for documents services or hospitals, see all your medical history or even heritage records.

These leaks keep appearing since many years but their origin is not necessarily a hack of the government infrastructure. The leaks usually occur at election cycles because the address based electorate data is handled and processed by the political parties(which are not exactly IT elites) and gets stolen or leaked.

Then there were high profile hacks of large food delivery services or other e-trade platforms.

All this resulted in people collecting and merging data from multiple leaks and re-selling those.

Edit: At some point, all the lawyers were using this data to track down people relevant to their court cases. They were selling it in CD format back then. Scammers and other criminals probably use this data too.

That is assuming the worst in people. Have you ever wanted to move onto something new? If you make something cool, it is not your lifelong obligation to oversee it.
Yeah that's fair.

Edit: lmao playing around a bit, simply changing "it is" to "its" (no apostrophe) in the first sentence, and editing the second sentence to read "the problem's that people have to be" makes ZeroGPT no longer think my post was AI generated at all.
Have you ever used a VR headset?

I doubt there is ever going to be a budget headset with mass market appeal because they'd be incredibly nausea inducing.

The Oculus quest is a perfect example. It's basically manufactured e-waste which is only getting bought because of the fantasy it ultimately doesn't live to.
Actually, I don't. I turn off most autosuggest, autofill, etc in practically every app I use.
As polytely said, https://modding-openmw.com/ is a great resource for openmw mod lists.

Also, for certain mods, you do need at least OpenMW 0.48 release candidate [1], a development build [2] (it's below Release Versions), or just build from source. I'm pretty sure it was after 0.47 when they added the ability to add shaders, and configure them using the F2 menu. The modding-openmw site will tell you if you actually need a 0.48 build for a particular mod.

I usually use "I Heart Vanilla" [3] as a base and then pick extra mods from "Expanded Vanilla" [4], which includes the load order if you also want Tamriel Rebuilt [5] (which lets you explore the mainland). The Expansions Integrated, Tribunal Rebalance, Bloodmoon Rebalance, and Expansion Delay are all nice mods too. Makes the expansions really feel like they are part of the base game. When adding extra mods like that, I just use the load ordering they suggest.

One of my favorites (in "Expanded Vanilla") is called Natural Character Growth and Decay [6], so you don't have to worry about min-maxing the level mechanics. It has some options, and I turn off the decay bit for a more relaxing time. It allows you to just play the game as you want.

I love the addition of shaders, and use Zesterer's Volumetric Cloud & Mist Mod for OpenMW [7] as you can have the game keep some of that hazy feeling yet still have distant land and objects. I also use Bloom Linear shader [8]. If you want some other shaders, you can use OMWFX Shaders [9] and/or Zesterer's OpenMW Shader Pack [10]. I have used Zesterer's OpenMW Shader Pack, but you have to edit the config.glsl if you want to set it different from the vanilla preset. The game looks nice with just FXAA, clouds and mist, and linear bloom (very mild). The "Expanded Vanilla" guide under shaders gives a good preset, and then you can change them using the F2 menu in-game.

This all said, it's been awhile since I've properly played last. I take my old list and update it occasionally as mods change or new features are added to OpenMW, thinking I will play through it again one of these days.

once cast iron is properly seasoned it maintains very well, and can last for generations! and they are dirt cheap to boot. but yes there is a little learning curve. they are heavy, so use two hands when handling. it must be seasoned (many come preseasoned) and never put it in a dishwasher for example -- but when properly seasoned the nonstick properties are so effective food just rinses off. i encourage everyone who cooks to try one!
Not really. For long term storage, the cost of a unit of energy storage capacity becomes more important than the round trip efficiency. This is all the more the case when the cost of the input energy declines.

For seasonal storage, hydrogen is vastly better than batteries, even with a RTE of 40%. That's because the cost of an underground hydrogen storage cavern can be as little as $1 per kWh of storage capacity.

Wait, isn't the point of teaching the OODA loop to avoid maintaining a legible OODA loop? As I've been taught it, OODA loops are a means of modeling and interfering with adversaries, not a tool for organizing yourself.

Hey, this was a good blog post. During the first section, I came up with a bunch of objections, and then by the end he had addressed them all (that is not to say resolved them). And, it was fun. Thumbs up to the author.

All that leaves me is this observation:

> Computer people have a good word for this kind of thing: lossy compression. You simply can’t fit a thought into a sound wave. Something’s gotta go, and what goes is its ineffable essence, its deep meaning. You have to hope that the other person can reconstruct that essence with whatever they have lying around in their head. Often, they can’t.

According to Tolstoy, the role of art is to reconstruct that lost data. That "[a]rt is a human activity consisting in this, that one man consciously, by means of certain external signs, hands on to others feelings he has lived through, and that other people are infected by these feelings and also experience them."

So, maybe try writing an opera about how studying at Oxford is a waste of time. Hope that helps.

Is it still carelessness if one knows they are going to kill people for their own selfish, perhaps greedy, goals?

I don't see such a big difference in intent. I think it's more that terrorist groups have people that do what they do for selfish reasons very directly. And corporate groups have people that do what they do for selfish reasons in a way where they are acting on behalf of shareholders' greed, and they aren't really directly harming anyone right now. So it's very indirect. But the intent is kind of similar morally - personal gain at the cost of crimes against humanity, right?
Yeah, I've found just using Nix on Alpine for glibc-dependent stuff to be the simplest workflow.

Note that, in my case, I'm not using Alpine for the "user experience", but solely because it is the most lightweight distribution (important when running on a machine with 1 GB of RAM). I was able to set up a C programming environment on a Raspberry Pi in only 300 MB... of disk space, not RAM! :)
Perhaps you should ask ChatGPT to explain the code you are not clear on. It's a great opportunity to learn, and honestly that's part of the 'fun' of using CoPilot, I've learned some new things that I wasn't aware of. Mostly they're just newer syntactic sugar, but it's still good to keep up on a language's latest syntax / features.
I guess more a closer comparison would be with the Project Reactor https://projectreactor.io/ which is also a low level framework for data processing.

I'd like to think that we should all want to formulate our questions well.

Having someone(something) complete our questions is like having someone interrupt you half-way through a thought and finish your sentence for you.

For the one completing the thought, they think they're being helpful. For the one being interrupted, there's a decent chance it's a <wtf?> moment.

Being able to form a complete thought by yourself is something that's important. Don't throw this away....

I make sure to tether off my phone when doing weird ops on reddit, they can't seem to correlate the banks of mobile IPs with my accounts (yet).
I think OpenAI has plenty of possibilities to explain why they aren't the responsible side in this case. E.g. they can argue that a proper way to use the tool is to provide elaborate prompts which reasonably protect from unwanted responses. I think many will see that ChatGPT tool is substantially different from a news website.
Thanks!

Let me give you an example.

I need to write a cron expression like once in couple years. So, I don't have working memory of it. So, to write it, I need to

1. Google "cron run something periodically".

2. Filter spam such as geeksforgeeks and irrelevant stackoverflows

3. Find either good enough approximation

4. If didn't work, go to cron man and start reading it. Example that I look for is 3rd from below in examples table https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E12058_01/doc/doc.1014/e12030/cro...

OR

I can go to chatgpt/copilot and directly ask what I need

"Tell me a cron expression to run command on each third Monday of a month and explain it"

and it will give me good enough approximation right from the start. I won't need to fight popups that will shame me for using adblockers, I won't need to go through tons of spam. I will get much better headstart, that will save my time and energy.

i politely disagree. as another commenter pointed out it depends on the size and overall subreddit visibility.

you can find visible and recognized posters just like you would any online forum in smaller subreddits centered around a thing like writing, programming, music.

check out r/zen for example where there is absolutely an infamous user: ewk and quite a few other regs who engage him in healthy (and perhaps.. toxic, depending on your worldview) discussion(s).
Yea, that’s true as of today in the US. There’s no way you could get such a deal where I live (Norway) due to our weak currency, and it used to be the other way around just a few years ago
> ... if they meant per user, they'd say per user. They don't, but explicitly say that it is per client id (=app).

You may be right, the reddit post has been edited multiple times. I assumed when it referenced OAuth that it was per end user, but it does seem that "client_id" is global to the application. I wish I could find any place else that lays out the details on the limit besides just this one reddit post...

Currently, it says the limit is "100 queries per minute per OAuth client id if you are using OAuth authentication"

And it's pretty shitty if he's including every single toy project within the "90% of apps".
Depends on the implementation. I abhor systems that constantly flash text in your face that may or may not be the word you are typing. The iOS typing suggestions bar is the worst at this. It feels like trying to talk while listening to your own voice at a delay, or others shouting words at you that you think you might mean.
Think of old.reddit.com as a canary. If it goes, then you know some shit is going down and Reddit will never truly be the same going forward. Even if you don’t use it, that should be the signal to leave if you haven’t already.
There's some commentary on this at the "Reddit drama" forum, if anyone here would enjoy reading some rather more ascerbic takes on the Reddit CEO's excuse-making exercise:

> That means all .NET EXEs and DLLs will be cross-compatible with Ubuntu since 5.0

Well, if compiled for the correct target framework, then yes. See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/frameworks

Note that .NET nowadays is cross-plattform, that means still you cannot just execute any dll/exe that uses plattform dependent code. This is the same as any other C/C++/Java program, once you program calls into OS library/kernel APIs, it is no longer cross-platform and those APIs have to exist on your target. So no, if you use any Win32 feature using P/Invoke, the tool will not just automagically run on Linux.

> You can definitely make something that looks like an EV pickup, and we have been able to do that for almost a hundred years. Making something that performs like a regular pickup is entirely different, which is the important part.

I agree with this. Historically pickups are high torque brusers for work and hauling; they've since turned into luxury vehicles. You can pull speed out of an EV, but cheap, simple, long range, and heavy hauling they are not.

The article names a good reason but ultimately it's because they are removed from the circumstance in which they would incur negative consequences or social stigma for drinking throughout the day. The degree to which they would imbibe varies but done moderately but it is in contrast to the "drink your drinks at night" which is now the modern world standard. I wager the "drink a little all day" used to be more common in the pre modern world.
Somewhat complicated.

If you're profitable at a unit economics level, and your CaC stays relativly stable as you scale marketing efforts, it's fairly logical to sink your would be profits into that CaC and associated costs ( i.e. you might have engineering costs to scale a platform ).

Now obviously if you're bootstrapped, you're managing cashflow, and you might keep a bit for a rainy day, but if you have several years runway of someone elses money, you want to grow the entity. You don't give away equity to end up with less money. You need to grow the pie.

Of course, there's still a lot of faulty logic and bs. CEOs be like, I'll just get rid of dev and be profitable. Alright mate.
As soon as a popularity threshold gets reached you start getting lazy corporate memes (I think I saw coke vs mentos with ludicrously high number of upvotes in a programming subreddit recently), power hungry abusive mods and comments sections that look suspiciously like a marketing agency bought a reddit vote machine gun.

There are some exceptions which are run by some seriously underrated mods, but for some reason the exceptions seem to be protesting the loudest. If I were advance publications I'd be looking for somebody to fire.
It's not. Moreover, the total energy is actually being lost, as particles "lose" kinetic energy due to expansion (and the light is red-shifted).

If this seems to violate the law of energy conservation, you're spot on. It is indeed being violated.

This is not fundamentally problematic by itself, because the law of conservation of energy depends on time invariance. Which doesn't hold in the case of an expanding universe. But it is an unsatisfying copout, and we hope that it can be resolved by the quantum gravity.
If you take this reasoning further you will realize you don't actually need any technology in your life.
Gotta love speculation.
Cast iron skillets just take a bit of getting used and are then zero maintenance and last for ever. The problems people have with them are usually due to trying to season them and doing it so badly (due to abundant online misinformation) they'd have been better off not doing it at all.
I haven't used Copilot, but I have used ChatGPT to generate some demo HTML5 pages using canvas and animations. While the results didn't match what I described, it at least produced some interesting output that was (technically) functional. It helped guide me towards what I wanted to accomplish while providing some basic boilerplate code for me to run with
That's fair, and I think everyone is right on the money that the pictures make it more appealing to children and easier to put back in order.

I suppose were I to entertain this idea for myself, since it's mostly a vanity/interest project rather than a functional one, it's not like it would be out of the question to have them re-bound. I wonder what the cost would be.
Alcoholism. Most alcoholics can hide it most of the time but not there. (Note: I first heard this opinion from an alcoholic)
Odd, it does work that way for me! If I move the cursor over a file in Finder, hold right click, move to the context menu option I want, and release the right mouse button, it triggers the action.

In windows the release doesn’t do anything, the right click action just toggles the menu open/not open, so you left click the context menu option after it opens.
Completely disagree. Not archiving/recording everything for eternity has be the de facto modus operandi of the human race since time immemorial.

Reddit had the privilege of hosting user comments, and they squandered the trust they built. Social networks live and die by the good will of their users, creators/users taking back what they made is the consequence of acting in a way that users don't like. Deleting all my comments out of every conversation I had on reddit and destroying all the value is the point, I don't want Reddit to have that value.
