> When I clicked on a reddit result on Google to find some information, only to find it has been closed down in protest after trying to find something on Google, I was frustrated

There are two solutions to this: google's cached pages and archive.org.

> Reddit is fully within their rights to seize the subreddits from their unpaid moderators and I would expect them to if they're gearing up for an IPO.

Reddit's sob story is that they are still unprofitable. They can't afford to hire moderators for the seized subreddits.

I sincerely appreciate the corrections, and I don't think it wrecks my argument to have the totals be seven, ten, and five. And owning should be construed as something more extreme than simply dominating in the latter case.
The problem is that people grow up with this ridiculous state of affairs, among many others, so there is no point of reference, and even when a moment of clarity hits that something might be wrong, there is a sense of hopelessness that nothing can be done because everyone else is still half-alseep.

That makes sense.

Although, it goes against the dismissive post to which I was replying, that said Reddit will provide all the missing functionality without a problem.
That’s not running in the gov cloud though.

Any any operation can make a huge mistake like that. E.g. the guy that leaked all those documents to discord.

Sir, this is an ML thread.

Venv interacts with that poorly, though to be fair it could be googles fault. Still it shouldn't be even possible.
Queries on DoltHub need to go to S3 to fetch all the chunks. This only works for databases < 1GB generally. You will get much better performance if you clone the database locally.
When the only way to get feedback on something is to go live to random customers, yeah, that's a difficult decision. I was thinking of situations where you are getting feedback on pre-launch software from a customer or from your own product organization, or you have an established product and some of your customers opt-in to beta functionality because they want the opportunity to influence your direction. I agree there are situations where the worse mistake is giving people a bad first impression.

iPhone was registered but unused by Cisco. They made a deal and here we are. IOS was also registered by Cisco, so it's pretty likely the same sort of deal was reached. Money talks, and it was financially worthwhile for both parties.

I doubt Huawei is going to do the same though, since they are direct competitors that goes up to the nation state level. Huawei has no financial reason to relent and give up the trademark, but every reason to keep the trademark now that their Western competitor wants it and has already tried to appropriate it.

I can't see Apple retaining the mark. They should have done their research first before their marketing. They won't be able to bully China into submitting to them very easily.

My prediction is if Apple tries to push it, Huawei and China in general will rub their noses in it to embarrass the West.

I wouldn't mind paying $10 for a starter innoculant amount (small bag) if that would grow in my soil over time so need to figure out the right conditions to keep it growing and maybe how to grow one's own for further propagation. Here is what Chat GPT says:

what are good ways to propagate Mycorrhizal fungi and to keep it multiplying in your soil

ChatGPT
Propagating and maintaining mycorrhizal fungi in your soil can have numerous benefits for plant health and nutrient uptake. Here are some good ways to propagate and sustain mycorrhizal fungi:

Minimize disturbance: Mycorrhizal fungi establish and spread through their extensive networks of hyphae. Minimizing soil disturbance, such as avoiding excessive tilling or compacting the soil, can help maintain the fungal network and prevent disruption.

Maintain soil organic matter: Mycorrhizal fungi thrive in soils with high organic matter content. Adding organic matter, such as compost or well-rotted manure, provides a favorable environment for their growth and proliferation.

Avoid overuse of synthetic fertilizers: High levels of synthetic fertilizers, especially phosphorus, can inhibit mycorrhizal colonization. It's advisable to use fertilizers sparingly and opt for slow-release organic fertilizers whenever possible.

Introduce mycorrhizal inoculants: Mycorrhizal inoculants are commercially available products that contain beneficial mycorrhizal fungi. These inoculants can be applied during planting to introduce or supplement the existing fungal populations in the soil.

Promote plant diversity: Different species of mycorrhizal fungi have varying symbiotic relationships with different plant species. Promoting plant diversity in your garden or landscape can support a diverse mycorrhizal community.

Avoid fungicides: Fungicides can harm mycorrhizal fungi, so it's best to minimize or avoid their use. If fungicides are necessary, opt for those that have minimal impact on beneficial soil organisms.

Maintain proper soil moisture: Mycorrhizal fungi require adequate soil moisture to thrive. Avoid waterlogging or excessive dryness, as both can negatively impact their growth. Maintain consistent soil moisture levels appropriate for the specific plant and fungal species.

Practice crop rotation: Rotating crops can help diversify the types of mycorrhizal fungi in your soil. Different plants associate with different species of mycorrhizal fungi, so rotating crops can foster a broader range of beneficial fungal symbionts.

Remember that the presence and abundance of mycorrhizal fungi in your soil can depend on various factors, including soil type, climate, and plant species. It may take time for mycorrhizal populations to establish and expand. Patience and consistent practices that support soil health are key to promoting and maintaining mycorrhizal fungi in your soil.
Yeah everyone is super different, and it is kinda funny to see all the varied replies here.

Some of the stories I hold onto when I'm having a tough time finishing are those of writers who talk about what a struggle it is to write. Jerry Seinfeld on the Tim Ferriss show was one of my favorite interviews ever. He talks about about how his advice to young comedians is to just work. There's no way around it. That's been a great comfort to me. The War of Art is another good source of inspiration.
Depressingly, this is closer to reality than most people realize. It's not just the risk of complications in treatment, it's also that most providers send off several hundred or thousand claims in a 1-2 week period and get a lump sum check a few months later from the insurance company. Believe me when I say the best and brightest in finance are not working in billing reconciliation in hospital systems. Most are only capable of saying "oncology reimbursements are up 0.7% this month yoy" and not much more.

They are pointedly uninterested in calculating what your particular surgery will cost you or your insurance. All they know is that you're one of 200 this month and your insurance pays, on average after all the adjustments and adjudications, about 15% less than average so please be quiet and don't make a fuss.

I went to get a standard STD panel at an urgent care a few weeks back. I asked how much it would be beforehand (since I don't have insurance). The front desk person said "between $100 and $200". I left and paid $340 - which pissed me off but whatever. Then, the following week, I received a bill from the lab testing for $380. That infuriated me. In total I spent $720 after being initially quoted max $200.

I tried to fight it but medical billing places remind me of the South Park episode about Cable Companies (where they're rubbing their nipples as the callers describe how they're being exploited). Truly an asinine system.

Of course not. But building up resentment over an ultimately useless restriction is just a waste of resources and time. Make them resent you for smooth-brain restrictions and they won't listen to you when it actually matters.
Pushshift.io used to host a complete repository for Reddit. I think there were archives on the internet archive as well. There are numerous torrents with terabytes of text content for training AIs. Perhaps they might lock it down going forward, but language training horse fled and was eaten by coyotes a decade ago.

They didn’t make this claim.

Highly recommend W. Sommerset Maughm's "The Magician" for a treatment of Crowley's personality and influence. The occult is full of tedious charlatans, and yet they reappear in history in influential forms like Machiavelli, Rasputin, Crowley, Mesmer, Bernays, Marcuse, and other literal mesmerists, with lesser lights as 20th century cult leaders, and I think Klaus Schwab and his transhumanist hokum is the current equivalent to these prior figures. His cohort has been clever enough to outlaw the mockery they so richly deserve.

Oddly, the marjority of Issac Newton's writing was esoterica, and his contributions to physics and maths were almost incidental to his huge body of work on occult topics. What fascinates me about the occult personally is that it's a fundamentally inferior ontology - where it's what you believe when you don't have belief. Its ideas manifest in cults, but also in theory, where Marxism and its consequent gobbledygook(s) are predicated on similar occult and gnostic premises. Before we had ideology, we had superstition, and the priesthood of superstition was these magical thinkers, imo.

I mean, I guess I assumed nobody had created an alternative NBA subreddit during the drama that OP highlighted - my fault for being flippant.

Apologies, I likely clicked the wrong comment to reply. I agree with you, it's impossible for Reddit to provide that missing functionality. The moderation teams on some popular subreddits are almost the size of the entire paid Reddit admin staff. There is simply no way Reddit can take over the free moderation duties currently undertaken by volunteers.

Is there a market out there where I can bet all my money against this claim? The idea that this will lead to a spam wave destroying Reddit is wishful thinking on the part of aggrieved moderators who see themselves as forming a Thin Blue Line against a tide of chaos.
There are millions of subreddits, but with the volume of subreddits "dark" and some of the largest ones joining in, it's likely to have had a significant effect on a majority of Reddit users, and a decent part of the wider internet. Cumulatively (adding up the member counts), 3 billion "accounts"/subscriptions have been effected.

How much are you willing to pay?
This comparison doesn't really work because 4chan boards tend to be pretty strictly moderated. It's just that the threshold of what's considered acceptable is lower.
I don't understand why the users aren't just leaving? Surely the software/infrastructure can't be that hard to replicate, especially on a "subreddit" level?

Why don't a few big mods just go this route and tell everyone else?

The CEO is following the new leadership playbook, which you should recognize by now, as it's used by Musk, crypto leaders, Zuckerberg, and many more inside and outside of tech.

* Fundamentally it's just following the social (media) trend: Demonstrate brazen, over-the-top arrogance, disregard for consequences, and no empathy. I'm sure people recognize that pattern.

* Applied to CEO roles, it means publicly demonstrating contempt toward groups of people who are (individually) weaker than you, including employees, customers, protestors, etc. And it means disregard for consequences, such as Musk's actions when bidding $40 billion for Twitter, and afterward; or much of what has happened in crypto. It demonstrates your power, demonstrates their powerlessness (if they capitulate), and makes you look like you have extreme confidence and little empathy - which is very trendy now, of course. Disregard for consequences works until they occur. It's basic con-person tactics, the most obvious bad sales techniques.

* When challenged, act more aggressively or with more contempt. Double down.

* Play the victim and characterize those who oppose you as violent threats - which again shows disinterest and contempt for them and their arguments. One remarkable place you can see it is some US Supreme Court justices - it's such a powerful trend in 'leadership' that these people with untouchable lifetime positions even do it. (In case you missed it, Reddit's CEO used this technique.)

These 'leaders' protray themselves as brilliant, innovative, and highly capable, and people assume they must be - after all, they run these big companies. They are just corrupt and swept up in the latest fashion. Power corrupts, no surprise.

The sad part is that I see many on the other side of these issues actually believe this crap - they believe they are powerless and unilaterally disarm, as if the leaders are using the Force when they say, 'you have no power' - 'Oh, I guess I have no power' and they despair. (And then they tell everyone else the same.)

At the cost of a little faith in demoracy (write large - the power of individuals working together), they hold all the power. Our ancestors who in the same way built much of the freedom and society we have now, must be amazed. We just give it all away. The worst of our society haven't given it away - look at Bud Light. Reddit should be toast, or at least the CEO. People just wake up and act.
Yup, that’s consistent with what I remember from back then. I remember having to give my new landlord a check for six or eight grand when I picked up the keys. Sounds about right for first + last + deposit + 1 mo broker’s fee.
> how y'all think these things grow and thrive

Reddit has grown and has thrived, now the company is prioritising turning on the money tap. They’re prepared to lose X users if it means they can monetise the remaining users by Y amount.

I’m not saying this as a defence, I’ve also been using Reddit for 15+ years and I’m disappointed by what I see. I’m just clear eyed about the game plan.
I'm talking about deterring ML data harvesting, or at least getting a better price for it.
Cost is a red herring here - the real metric is opportunity cost. These are users who spend a lot of time on reddit and give up a ton of data, so they can almost certainly get a much better CPI from these users, and give them a ton of ads.
So it begins. I wonder how elon’s stance on wfh will change once he’s evicted from all his offices.
