100% agree, the challenge is that with Digg, we had reddit to flee to. I'm looking at lemmy, which seems similar in many ways, but is federated.
Already commented something similar in another thread:

Why is the security policy for extensions still not architected like other web permissions?

There has been a shift on mobile already from "take it or leave it"-style permissions on install towards more fine grained control not overidable by the app manifest.

I think Browser extensions should behave similarly. Especially when it comes to which origins an extensions is allowed to act on.

The user should be able to restrict this regardless of the manifest, even forced to do.

Extensions that need to act on all or an unknown set of origins should require a big and scary prompt after installation, regardless of what the user agrees to during installation.

I say this as a happy user of uBlock origin and React DevTools.

But for the common user the default should be to deny permissions and require user interaction.
One thing I dislike about using Reddit (At least when accessing the main page from a browser) is that I have to be logged into an account in order to sort comments.

Was this always a thing? I cannot remember if this was in the case in the past, and I don't really have a Reddit account that I actually log into ever.
For me it's less about identity and more about just the damn charger working.

I've never had an official Tesla charger fail to charge when plugged in. Their maintenance is top notch.

The apps hardly work, and it doesn't help that I have to fiddle with a map and a list to find the charger I'm standing in front of by some name like "Agustin" or "Bashir", instead of just scanning a QR code or NFC tapping the physical plug which would have been a much better experience.

ChargePoint works well; EVGo almost never works. EA usually works after unplugging and plugging and trying about 3-4 times.
ChatGPT is going to be the best at replicating its training data, because the floor is made out of floor.
Honestly not a bad idea. You could even fall asleep and continue to display blinking eyes with no one catching on.
It's sad to see all these good Reddit clients disappear.

I hope someone will be able to make them usable again. I've already seen some people start work on an implementation of the Reddit API to interface with Lemmy (though obviously porting the federated nature of the fediverse into Reddit is very difficult) but other workarounds would still be welcome.

I suppose you will be able to plug in the API keys for the official Reddit app into these alternative clients until the API breaks but long term a better solution is needed.
Ran into a user who shared a screenshot of the mobile app (for unrelated reasons to the topic at hand). They admitted the mobile app 'sucked' yet didn't care.

Apathy is real, and most users have it. Reddit will be fine.
> The Adams quotes are from some time ago

I would be surprised if they were recent, but I wouldn't put it past him, either.
That's roughly how much Twitter is running with today, and they have a sizable amount of physical servers. And it's been 8 months since the huge downsizing so it seems like that's sufficient to keep things stable
I'm in the same boat, looking at lemmy and mastodon. I think the key will be to hit some critical mass quickly enough.
Fair enough, but I've never seen it drop below 228 and I've never seen it go above 253 and 240 is the rough midpoint between the two. I suspect this was to accomodate the UK which did have nominal 240V so that all of Europe could be 'one standard' without the requirement for gear to have many different voltage selections. So now the only time you see 230 is when the sun isn't shining the rest of the day you're much closer to 240. Incidentally: this is also why a bunch of older appliances are at risk of burning out. If they were marginal when we were still nominally 220V then 230V was already pushing it and 253 V (still within EU tolerance, 230 x 1.1 is 253!) will definitely cause damage. Newer gear is more forgiving about this. Hence the spike in business at white goods stores during days with lots of sunshine...

Older appliances typically had a whole raft of supply voltages to choose from 100, 110, 115, 120, 200, 220, 240 and sometimes even 127 and 245 and I'm pretty sure I've seen even weirder ones (150, 185 iirc). Now it's just 120 or 240 for regular consumer gear. BTW, brownouts are more of a risk than overvoltage, with brownouts a powersupply that autoranges might accidentally pick the lower voltage and then when the brownout ends magic smoke comes out.
Is this similar to those kitchen-sink bootstrap themes that used to be popular, with jquery, charting libs and whatnot included, that your client buys for you to speed things up even though you're coding React?
How is RISC-V still not an officially supported architecture?

I am disappointed in Debian.
It would be very cool if he made the app free so people can actually try it before it gets killed.
There are trade offs for living longer. For example, children of older fathers are more likely to have birth defects.
You wrote

> there's absolutely nothing wrong with consuming sucralose

Well, there are studies showing that there is something wrong with consuming sucralose.

I posted a link to such a study. That contradicts your statement.
Worth noting that Manjaro has had a somewhat tarnished reputation, which has been widely covered before but it's still worth mentioning.[1]

I used to recommend Manjaro to people as an alternative to Arch that's a bit friendlier, but I stopped after trying to debug an issue and realizing that they have overcomplicated a lot of things (kernel management in particular bugs me in Manjaro.)

Arch now has some kind of installer, so I guess that's an improvement. Though, I really wish Valve could package something like SteamOS 3 for regular desktops. I'm aware of multiple projects that do similar things, but the execution on Deck is quite good. The "immutable" concept is certainly going to be an important part of Linux on desktops in the future, probably in different forms.

Is there a butterfly effect -like minimum pertubation for gravitational wave propagation through matter or massful things, at least?

Is there something that's low-enough power to not EM-burn a brainstem in a crytographically-keyed medical device with key revocation?

Does a fishing lure bobber on the water produce gravitational waves as part of the n-body gravitational wave fluid field, and how separable are the source wave components with e.g. Quantum Fourier Transform/or and other methods?

I had good experience with manjaro. The main selling point for me was the rolling release. I got tired of reinstalling stuff as Ubuntu updates. There’s always an issue and you end up having to install from scratch. However, as long as Ubuntu is on its own partition, and your files are separated out, that reinstall isn’t so bad. I eventually wrote a todo list for it, and wrote some scripts to get set up faster
It was originally supposed to lock out Nissan and CHAdeMO (Tesla wasn't yet considered a threat) from the US and European[2] markets. Traditional automakers didn't actually want their EVs to succeed[1], they just wanted to make sure no one else's EVs did either.

As it happened, it worked well enough. Nissan never sold enough Leafs to make much of a dent, largely because of the lack of a good DC charging network.

The real threat was the company actually trying to win.

[1] Much better to sell high margin pickups and SUVs than risky technology bets.

[2] It always needs to be repeated: CCS is actually two incompatible charging connectors. The DC/fast charger connector is mostly compatible between the two, but the AC half is either a J-1772 or a Mennekes, and the signaling for those is done via two different overlays on top of the CCS layer.
Psychology is a bigger field than Freudian psychoanalysis.
2-3 generations. Historically demonstrable as a metric to be sure about the ill effects of a new substance/tech. History is littered with examples of consumers & industry placing convenience & profits ahead of what's sensible to these ends.

Eg, X-rays - 60 years from invention, popularity, child use, "crazy" people claiming they're bad, to suspicion they might be, conservative study, realising they're screwed, all kinds of safety standards being applied, and acceptance.

Radiation, thalidomide, PCB's, DDT's, smoking, Asbestos, etc. Sometimes it can be faster or slower, but 2-3 human generations is also pragmatic as you can reasonably assess effects on offspring as well as sufficiently-aged pioneers.

I mean, why are people even considering artificial sweeteners? Isn't it only because it's taken us all several decades to realise refined sugar is fucked after initially thinking it was great if not at least "safe"?

I'm happy ingesting organic fruit, but I understand many out there prefer their bodies used as profit-making devices.
I think it’s an asymmetric problem across areas of study. Including within math — there aren’t many amateurs who are going to try their hand at algebraic geometry, but number theory tends to be like catnip, because many wicked problems are very simple to state.

Math is not so different from computer science in that it seems relatively approachable to a layperson. But there are relatively few mathematicians out there. That same level of spam is being filtered by much fewer people.

To me, it’s akin to why the Linux kernel devs operate the way they do. No GitHub issue page, no Slack, no Discord, banning topposting and web email providers. It’s all based on old school mailing lists, because there’s orders of magnitude more amateurs than kernel devs and they don’t have time for handholding the unwashed masses.

Anyway, I think there’s some middle ground to be found between this extremely burdensome process to submit a paper for publishing, and making it as easy to publish as making a forum post…
Exactly. I'd argue the true freeloaders at Reddit are the Reddit execs and the venture capitalists squeezing for profits. Everybody here developer here knows they could rebuild Reddit in short order; there's no technology moat. The valuable asset is the community. Beyond recovering enough money to pay for servers and some core staff, everything else is parasitic.
This was my suspicion, thank you.
I worked at an electronics retailer in high school for a couple years, my job was to sell laptops. I sold a lot of laptops. Nerds like us who post comments on hacker news can have a hard time understanding the mind of the vast majority of regular people who simply could not care less about trackpad quality. It's just not a thing most people even think about.
If the 3rd part Apps did find some way to eat the cost, it would basically solve reddit's monetization problem. Redditors could feel good paying 10$/month to their favorite reddit ap developer, and not evil corpo Reddit, and reddit gets their money.

This was probably the best-case-scenario Reddit was hoping for.
It's a platform. If it was a protocol anybody could run their own Discord server, which you cannot. (Discord "servers" aren't servers, and you don't own them, Discord does.)
There is selective pressure for aging because populations of organisms that don't age cannot evolve to adapt to new environments.
Reddit already purchased one of these apps and 'improved' upon it over the years. I don't see why they would feel the need to purchase another app.
I would argue that both China and Vietnam owe most to their success to market reforms and not to particular industrial policies. Prior to Deng, China couldn't even produce enough food, and they had industrial policy for years(every 5 in fact). South Korea is a US satrap that has been showered with development dollars since the 1950s, and even still the economy took off after liberalization and a turn to democracy. Moreover SK's cozy connection between state an industry spawns endless scandal, is eroding trust in the state, has create a perverse system of cram schools and test taking to get onto corporate ladders that is absolutely crushing young people there, and a number of other social and political problems. Japan has also seen its industrial policy turn to shit. The bending to Toyota's quixotic dream of hydrogen cars has hobbled the whole auto industry there and has stalled the roll out of any charging infrastructure for EV. They were well positioned due to a history in auto engineering and electronics to have become an EV powerhouse and a leader in battery tech, but industrial policy fucked that up, because policy makers were convinced that Toyota the national hero knew better.

The 5th Republic has been teetering on the edge of collapse for the last few. years, so I wouldn't be so bullish on France.

BY ARPA I'm not sure if you're referring to the Advanced Research Projects Agency or the American Rescue Plan which is now stupidly called ARPA sometimes.

Um yeah, NASA was pretty cool back in the day when they were shooting V2s at the moon. But later efforts like the shuttle were kind of boondoggles because it was tethered to goofy military spying stuff, so it ended up being shitty for science and a dead end for anything commercial. That's not really a great success story for industrial policy IMHO.
> Apollo has had since April to figure out a new billing model - but sat on their hands hoping whatever Reddit came up with could be afforded with their existing $10 per year per user model. Say it out loud - it's absurd.

Just stop.

You’ve been told multiple times, by multiple people, that this was not the case.

You’ve been provided the timeline, which you refuse to acknowledge.

You very well know that he was not provided the pricing until 8 days ago.

At this point, you continuing to say this is just being disingenuous and talking in bad faith.

What, exactly, are you getting out of this? Is unreasonably placing the blame on a single developer your way of getting your rocks off?
Allowing toxic viewpoints wouldn't make the platform less toxic though.
That is often illegal. It's not illegal in the US. Even there, it is often a leader service for illegal prostitution. https://twitter.com/KristineParkerH/status/16625082178076426...

It does not appear to be justified to make claims about what's true of "the majority of sex workers online". This is not an area where reliable numbers exist.
Many chargers don't require an app.
Most companies operate (whether working from office or WFH) as not giving a flying fuck about product quality. There are so many corners cut, stuff added to increase the bottom line with shady crap to the detriment of the end product (and the user experience), blatant lack of passion for the result and so on.

If the product suffers, it's not because they're working for home. Microsoft, Adobe, Apple, or the famous old examples everybody loved to have Avid and Quark,
have made no end of crap releases, or crapped on their priorly good products, while strictly working from an office.

And that's with product oriented companies - corporate and government software is, of course, much much worse.

Still, why optimize for product quality either? It's a bottomless pit. We should optimize for a decent product (that would already be an improvement), and work-life balance. Work is 1/3+ of daily life, and people's time is not something people should be forced to sacrifice (by piling up forced relocation or commuting time, open plan or cublicle farm environments, and lack of day contact with kids, spouses, ability to drop the kids to school or handle some chore over the week, and so on).
Has anyone ever tried a GPT trained on, say, 256 tokens representing bytes in a byte stream or even more simply binary digits?

I imagine there are efficiency trade-offs but I just wonder if it works at all.
Mobile doesn't give you control over which origins it contacts.
Discovery and invention are two words that point to the same process.

I can't find any relevant documentation for Texas Instruments but their prices were in the same ballpark as their primary competitor Symbolics, and you can find them in this document: http://bitsavers.org/pdf/symbolics/history/Symbolics_Overvie...

So around $50-100k.
It's also a gamble to build your business on top of user created content and then piss off the users.

I just used redact.dev to delete over 10 years of reddit comments and posts on my 125,904 karma account.

Honestly just kind of done with mass market social media in general at this point, so it wasn't that hard to push me over the edge here.
I don't know if it has changed, but I believe that feature isn't available on all plans.
The usual method is by SEPA direct debit (initiated by Paypal) but you can use a SEPA transfer as well to top up your Paypal balance and pay with that.
> They went with a higher resolution display, and between that and all the technology they put in there to power it, it costs seven times more and now requires so much energy that now you need a battery and a wire attached to it to use it.

Comparing the pricing of your consumer level product to an enterprise level product is extremely disingenuous.

He's clearly scared.
EndeavourOS is a (so far, time will tell) more reliable and sane normie-friendly desktop Arch with installer. The Budgie DE is def worth checking out for F&F.
... It looks like Twitter. I'm not taking the piss, it's literally what it looks like. But do click the article to see the weird home screen logo I guess.
I have a Nissan Leaf and have a brick of an adaptor for J1772. I think it's required for some kind of ground fault or other check circuitry because I know the car has its own built in charging system that deals with AC.
So far I have seen nothing but fawning for the project and its devs on here.
Maybe for you or maybe not, but I need to write this out there: My wife (42 YO) started to experience sleep issues around a year ago. She tried with lots of stuff including delayed-release Melatonin, and nothing quite worked well. Until she started taking ZMA pills [1]. This supplement really solved her issues. I take "half dose" sporadically and really helps me get a full good deep night sleep.

It may or may not work for you, but it's one of those things that may be worth try it, and they sell it GNC and similar mainstreet stores.

How is south Asia possibly not "big enough - it's literally based around the most populous country in the world! But yes, obviously logistics and friendly regulatory regimes are a big part of it.
(FWIW I was including China/Japan/Korea in "SE Asia" in my post. Obviously all three have now developed beyond the good sources of cheap labour that they had started out as in the last 50 or so years. But there are still other plenty of potential candidates to follow the same path, both in Asia and elsewhere in the world).
an extension developer can scope their extension to only run on certain URLs, and if that list changes then chrome will automatically disable it until the user re-authorizes for the new set of URLs.

so they're not a total security nightmare if they're only authorized to run on sites where you don't enter any private data. for example, looking through my extensions list, the py3redirect that autmatically redirects python2 documentation pages to python3 pages doesn't request access to anything other than python.org.

but otherwise, yeah, you're giving permission to execute arbitrary code on any website you visit, which is about as compromised as your browser can get.
You can't disable UEFI in your BIOS settings? That's what I do.
> Seems like the big drawback of the positive-pressure approach would be flushing the heating/cooling out, too (as you've said in the article).

There are lots of enthalpy recovery systems on the market, some that can recover >75% of the 'waste' energy, though mostly aimed at larger customers. You need to do a cost-benefit analysis to see if it makes sense to spend the upfront cost.
Yeah I don't know either. How hard could it be to build though? I say that half-jokingly...

Is the reddit API complex?
that makes an unfortunate degree of sense
That's a lot more work than saying "No" to using the malware.
Okay but what does this even mean in terms of API usage? Why would Reddit buying Apollo "quiet down" its API usage? I accept I may just be missing something here but I don't understand this.
Yeah, especially when he says he'll be giving pro-rated refunds when it shuts down anyways, so it's not like he can't/won't do that. I'm honestly a bit baffled by both sides' behavior in this situation.
Absolutely wild to me that anyone is in favor of this for exactly this reason.

If a user chooses to do this, more power to them. If my OS does this by default, it's an insane invasion of my use.
You do not have to do shit. But you do not live in the vacuum and unless you take interests / complaints of the other parties into considerations sooner or later you would face problems. Karma.
Not really sure if that is really cleverer to be honest. I think passwords and the common password reset via capability URL is pretty fine. I use stronger credentials for banking and everything else is pretty much only protected by password. I also do cherish the privacy advantages of not using a login provider. I had accounts suspended for no reason and this dependency is just not acceptable.

Even banking with device bound credentials is a hassle everytime you switch devices or you picked up the wrong phone.

I have some apps using login with Microsoft because users are logged in anyway in a corporate environment and it is practical to provide SSO. Here accounts might also be closed and access needs to withdrawn. Practical to do so centrally.

But for cleverness I still believe nothing beats a secret in your head. Quick, fast, secure. Oauth is a mess, so I doubt passwords will be outdated anytime soon.
Dead-key input, if done according to ISO 9995, is trivial for exactly that reason. Type all of the combining diacritics, then the base character.

Not the allocated space, the bit width of the ALU. Besides, your explanation doesn't add anything to the description of 'struggle' beyond 'in a normal and expected fashion'.
Food containers are also just..not the problem. No bulk plastic is. Even scraping the hell out of container isn't going to make particles in any quantity.

Microplastic in the environment comes from long term degradation of plastic when it washes into the ocean or waterways and breaks down from UV / radical exposure.
