I don't know why anyone would voluntarily receive medical devices and procedures for the sake of having cool tech, particularly brain surgery. In a time where a lot of people are reducing their online footprint, you'd have to be crazy to think that anyone would risk their lives to "sign-in" to a kind of social network that you can't ever leave.
It's the latter entirety. Take a look at the recent data posted about how most sub automods are on the free tier.

Basically power mods who run several subs are toast. Whether this was intentional or not is besides the point. It's the best possible outcome from everything.
Sadly most people are the herd and the herd wants to be force-fed. All the better, I prefer smaller more engaged communities anyway. Diamond in the rough, lucky are the few, etc.
Why even bother with signal if you use closed source iOS?
> the most compelling mass-market use case I saw from Apple is... watching a movie on an airplane

It’s also an environment steeped with signalling, something Apple excels at.
It's funny to see this actually. I never thought about it the way I read it from Mark Twain. Neither had I ever thought about English being a hard language because it has no regularity and every second word is an exception in how to pronounce it. But French eludes me.

Written German of the times of Mark Twain is also quite different from today's. Of course the actual context dictates formality as well. Personally I can't understand Shakespeare era English nor German. It's just gibberish to me. With lots of concentration maybe but not just reading or listening to it.

Also, the whole Dative and Genetive thing is not just a formality/written vs spoken thing but more a generational and societal one. Using Dative for things where the rules actually prescribe Genetive is a class thing. Working class usually means everything is just Dative. And if you're not good at learning languages. Even as a German native speaker. If you are trying to sound high society and snobbish you'll use a lot of Genetive in the proper way. Or if you simply learned it that way and it became second nature to do it correctly. A lot has changed that way since Twain.
I don't think it's a good idea to assume / hope that HN remains that way. Money is still an aspect of the existence of HN. It exists because pg has enough money to run it, and its existence aligns with his current desires. This community could just as easily dissappear in a way equivalent to what we're seeing with Twitter and Reddit, if pg wanted. And it could not be easily replaced, because its existence is dependent on pg's money...

"e-waste consumption slabs" really does a disservice to all of the art that has been created with these devices (visual, auditory, textual), all of the communities that have been built by information sharing and network effects, education that has come from looking up anything at any time, and the exploration that apps like Maps, Weather, Translate, etc encourage and enable.

"I can't compile from a command line, so this is e-waste and only used for consumption." - give me a break.
When a site is run by assholes, the best move is to pack up your toys and play elsewhere.

Reddit continues to attract drama, censorship, moderation, and now usability problems that cannot be resolved when the leadership (with user-hostile corporate interests) is damaged beyond repair.

It's not difficult to make a site that can add posts and comments. It's difficult to moderate users and moderators in a fair and appropriate manner that respects the interests of the individual and the community: the emotional labor of meta-moderators and UX technical effort of developers is crucial to make a site as civilized as reasonable while allowing enough freedom of expression balanced by reducing and diffusing conflict.
> I fully understand how much Meta, Apple and others "want to make fetch happen". Many of us are simply just not interested.

That thing that gets me is just how weak the scenarios were in their promotional videos.

After building this device, the best that they could offer as benefits were viewing 3D photographs of your children, looking at multiple screens around you, or watching a single large screen for a movie or photo-browsing. (I mean, they showed somebody browsing the web. Why even dedicate time your video to show that?)

It feels like they're either out of ideas or really playing it safe. I'm guessing they do want to make "fetch" happen but don't really know how and are just going to bet on third party devs creating some killer app they haven't thought of. They've certainly got the time and money to work it out over the next few years.
> Meanwhile software history is full of examples of abusive corporations being put in their place by casual side projects

By 1997, Apple wasn’t a “casual side project”. It had already existed for 20 years.

That's an interesting observation. I can't justify why, but : feels a lot more fluid to type than gg, even though as you say, gg has less keystrokes and still keeps you on the home row.
Uh, then your not metricing your service correctly.

You should be collecting metrics on the basics of the way your service operates and in a steady state at scale even a 1/2% drop in messages should be readily noticable and likely monitored.
Just because you personally dislike city living, does not mean that the massive number of people who love cities are gaslighting.

People left cities during the pandemic because it was a pandemic. This isn't complicated to unpack, there's no secret motivations here. When there's a highly contagious disease around for a long time, all of the benefits of cities temporarily either closed or became a health risk: public transit, cultural institutions, restaurants, proximity to workplaces, etc. And meanwhile all the drawbacks to cities were amplified: smaller living quarters, higher population density, less access to private outdoor space, harder to have your own car.

In many major US cities, people moved back in droves over the past couple years. Rents soared and rental vacancy rates plummeted. That doesn't line up with your statements at all.

SF may well be in a death spiral, but nothing about this situation can be applied to all cities in general!
>Setting a sub to private is moderation

Destroying a community is not. There's plenty of obvious precedents where mods that attempted to destroy their own subreddits or merely hold them hostage have been replaced. These were considered obvious decisions, but now that people are angry at the admins we have some weird Mod Rights movement bubbling up.
What Happened to Cppreference.com?
I was browsing the cppreference.com when suddenly I noticed that all of the text had been replaced with "C++ is superseded by Rust".
Good point! The white earbuds (wired or not) are perhaps the best example of that.
> It’s also interesting that Apple doesn’t show this being used outdoors at all, despite that apparently perfect pass-through. One Apple video clip ends with someone putting it down to go outside...

Because that would be inviting ridicule. It's still way too large and bulky and, let's face it, comical to be used outside. Maybe in an office... Maybe. Clearly it's not intended for outdoor use.
Same here. I just want it to work which is why I’m with Apple for specific devices. If I wanted to experiment, I have Android and several PCs with different form factors. Apple’s walled garden also helps me with tech support for my immediate and extended family.

What a lot of people don’t seem to understand is that when you get freedom to tinker, you’ll lose stability and lessen security; all while increasing complexity
You're saying "can't" like your points are technical limitations instead of product choices.

For what it's worth, my brand new washing machine still can't make my morning coffee, either.
Nope, that was a bad action. On the other hand, booting the mods that are holding the subs hostage is a good action.
Yeah the obvious move from them imo.

Probably best for reddit just entirely kill 3rd party API access and restrict the power of mods. Arguably they should have done that anyway like Twitter did rather than just set prices high to sort of get to that outcome anyway.

You can't change the behavior without fixing the incentives, you can't fix ad-model incentives by being a user within an ad company, the users should just accept that when operating in that space and try to operate in spaces where they can actual own the platform. If you build a company on some other company's owned API you're on borrowed time the moment keeping you around no longer benefits that company.
As if being a federated network wasn't enough of a hurdle for new users, now we have instances blocking each other already.

Lemmy has a great chance achieving what mastodon couldn't, because its the community that matters, not specific users, but with instance blocking each other, any hope of creating a community to rival reddit is going to be thrown out the window.
I used to use Gatsby, but the non standard plugin system as well as forcing GraphQL (I use GQL in my own projects but it's just not necessary for a blog site for example, which Gatsby markets itself as being for) put me off Gatsby and onto NextJS, especially when NextJS introduced their static site rendering features. Now with server components, there doesn't seem to be a real need to use Gatsby anymore.
I thought that Ivermectin was proven to be helpful in places where parasitic infestations are extremely common (most of the world).

The problem being that treating someone with steroids also strengthens parasites, which burdens the immune system even more.

So in parts of the world where parasites are common, it makes sense to treat with an anti-parasite drug from the beginning (no need to test for actual parasites).

In parts of the world without widespread parasite infections (for example, the US), the costs outweigh the benefits.

This caused lots of confusion because there were quite a few papers promoting Ivermectin as part of treatment. The fine print said “in developing countries” but nobody reads the fine print.

> You’re asserting users are selfish.

You have twice now fabricated an argument that I am not making. I'm not fazed by this, but I think you should be aware that this is a thing you're doing.

I've multiple times said that neither party has any obligation to the other. The people who do assert obligations for others after the fact for self-perpetuated labor are selfish.
If you want to be able to use a long list of apps that many people consider essential, you're stuck using iOS or Android. Sure, you can sometimes make do with the mobile website, but usually the experience is pretty terrible. For some things, like contactless payment, there's just no alternative, on a mobile device, at least.
> I would love to see a 'tutorials/guide' and 'best practices' part of the documentation that is updated with each new release, that give examples of the most common tasks, and when/why to use them, and when to move to something more advanced.

Tutorials and best practices come about from real-world usage, which is why they're often out of date — by the time someone becomes enough of an expert on features specific to a version to write good-quality content of that nature, a new version is out. The only way to update those is through real-world usage, which means shipping pre-release versions for long-enough periods of time and having them used to ship real things, all before the release.

Does PostgreSQL do this? It hasn't in my experience, but it's admittedly limited to the last 5-6 years.
The community is exactly why toxic mods should be removed.

Um... what Unix (tm) product does Apple sell. They stopped selling A/UX decades ago and it's a bit of a stretch to call AIX Unix. And Mach is absolutely NOT Unix.

Saying that Apple is a Unix vendor because of Mach/Darwin/NeXTStep and Android/Google, Red Hat/IBM, Ubuntu/Canonical, Amazon/Amazon Linux aren't Unix vendors because they're Linux is an interesting take.

By that logic we could call MSFT a Unix vendor 'cause they once sold Xenix and NT originally shipped with BSD networking code.
This is exactly what I mentioned before in another thread about Apple and how visionOS will be a similar walled garden unlike macOS and thus it will be very difficult to use it as a laptop replacement, by Apple's design.

> Anyone else worried that Vision Pro will simply be a large iPad and not macOS like, ie closed app store and not geared towards productivity? The fact that to run VSCode you need to mirror your own Mac simply boggles the mind, it's like Apple wants to cut off the potential of the device at the knees simply to continue selling services.

It's a relatively simple compound word. Just two words actually.

I hope this doesn't get auto corrected but how about Donaudampfschiffahrtsgesellschaftskapitaen (sorry no umlauts here and no fff from me :)).

For the uninitiated: Schiff has 2 f. Fahrt has an f. But there a rule that if you combine words to make a new one you can't have a letter repeat more than twice.

Papplakate? Pappe and Plakate.

Schlaemmkreide? (again no umlaut but you get it thats an a umlaut and not just an e). Coz it's from Schlamm not schlemmen.
Same. I've been using Reddit daily for over 10 years now. I only remember one occasion I had trouble with some mods.
> But that's the whole of modern computing history, I suppose.

I really is not. Current Apple in particular has a strong vision of computers as almost commodities/appliances. The iPod might have been the defining moment, and almost all products after that were all defined by negative functional space.

The iPhone is a smartphone that was built around the idea of having neither a keyboard, nor stylus (then later nor side-loaded apps). These characteristics where heavily touted on stage. Nowadays you can plug a keyboard, but it won't help a lot.

The iPad was defined as having no advanced window management and no compiling, on top of iOS' other limitations.

The iMac was the original "only usb!" computer, and could still be defined today as the no touchscreen computer. Even as of now, the Vision Pro is the headset that's touted as having no primary controllers.

But if you look outside of the Apple ecosystem, these limits only apply to where the hardware can't do it. As many have cited, Samsung's phones can actually act as full computers, and som other android phones can too. Same way Samsung's android tablets have advanced window management, can load linux subsytems and do whatever a computer is supposed to do. Windows laptops have touch screens.
Well and also for being organized.
Reddit is a big deal to me, I moderate multiple subreddits with 6 figure subscriber counts, from a third party app. With that said, the discussion on HN is basically played out. There isn't a lot new to say.
Why do you think ActivityPub can't be used to implement a reddit clone? There's already 2 projects doing it reasonably successfully.
Ooh, that first bit suggests you're in danger of suggesting there's a coherent, sensible, set of rules for English ... which I'm sure you don't really subscribe to. Anyone adopting that position as a starting point is going to have a bad day, of course. : )

So, is 'er' better in terms of pronunciation? Perhaps, though I don't think that matters much, as pronunciation varies so wildly based on country, region, education, etc, plus there's so much inconsistency with spelling -> pronunciation within English that I think it's fair to say that ship has long since sailed.

In terms of writing however there's a huge advantage to having words with different meanings have different spellings. I assume I don't have to pitch that idea terribly hard?

For us non-Americans I suspect the frustration boils down to having a recalcitrant nation stubbornly refusing to join the rest of the metric world while simultaneously poisoning the language well of metric unit names everyone else is already using.
For my aws tickets I usually get first contact from people who seem pretty competent in about 1/4 the sla.

> Meta is trying to catalyse an ecosystem while we wait for the right hardware - Apple is trying to catalyse an ecosystem while we wait for the right price

Ignoring that these are the same thing, there is something deeper about the firms’ this reveals that I’m having a tough time enunciating. In essence, Apple is pursuing a time-tested strategy: start at the top of the market and build your way down with scale. Facebook is doin…something else.
There is a mixed reception to the Roman Catholic Second Vatican Council. The critics of it claim that there is a rich liturgical tradition that was lost when, among other things, chants were traded for Oregon Catholic Press hymns. There's something of a backlash now where the remainIng Catholics want older traditions back.

Thanks for the response! I meant the existing decoders -- I'll see if I could figure that out.
It was my decision to give back the money when it became clear we would not deliver any way close to on time (and could afford to give it back -- the Kickstarter money had all long been spent). Actually it was an optional refund: you could keep waiting and maybe get some hardware eventually, or get your money back and decide later at whatever the cost might be. The two people who supported at the $10K level (same as the $1K level but cost more) did not ask for refunds.

We did ship a few early headsets to people who paid extra for "earliest access" -- one of them even did a teardown video!
> When users join a sub it's because they like the content and tacitly approve of the moderation.

People don’t choose subreddits because of mods, they only leave subreddits because of mods. One of Reddit’s larger problem’s really is that some subreddits have better names than others, and the moderators have to be extremely bad for users to get mad enough to migrate to a new community with new mods and a worse name. Or Reddit has to replace the mods (seldom happens).

It’s not at all the case that the most popular communities correspond the best mods. Reddit also not only doesn’t want to provide their own mods, they can’t, it’s not even close to fiscally feasible. They will more likely appoint new community mods or remove some of the mods and let the remaining mods continue to moderate. This will likely lead to a general decline in the quality of moderation, especially in the short term, and especially in terms of neglect as it might surprise people how many subreddits have NO additional volunteers to do actual mod work.

It won't replace a home theater because you can't watch movies WITH someone on a VR headset - they each need their own headset.
It's basically like an TV/monitor combination. You don't bring monitors outdoors but they are still extremely useful at home for specific stuff.

The high-end passthrough is still very important for home use even without tacky "dolphins coming through your walls" usecases. Anyone who has used VR for extended periods of time with headphones and tried to have a drink/look at their phone knows how frustrating that is to take the whole rig off or try to peak down.

The fact VR people were excited you could read your Apple watch without taking off your headset says a lot about the current state of using VR for extended periods w/o quality passthrough.
Well thats the crux of the issue, reddit mods find third party apps improve their ability to perform their free labor. Theres no expectation that new mods would find the core reddit experience better.

Current mods can protest even after their removal by mass reporting posts on their former subs, causing the new mods to engage with the poor moderation experience on the core app.
German is not a pure SVO language rather it is classified as V2 (verb second language) in main clauses and SOV in subordinate clauses. At least I prefer to look at it in that - admittedly unsatisfactory - descriptive manner.[0][1]

There are some folks (like in Generative Grammar) arguing that it has an underlying SOV layer which makes kind of sense because it gets processed like half of the time essentially like pure SOV languages. But alas sometimes one size doesn't fit all. In English you have to go through the extraordinary effort of a wedding ceremony in order to utter the words in SOV order: "With this ring I thee wed."
That is some pure SVO energy right here, only broken by love ;)

It's pretty telling that Reddit hasn't backed their claims up in this way.
