What would a few examples of "stoner societies" be? The only possible one I could think of (and it's a stretch) would be Jamaica, but I'm pretty sure the issues they've had are more related to the whole slavery thing.
I usually don’t see many Reddit results in my searches either. According to previous threads on HN a lot of people append site:Reddit to their Google searches so perhaps that is what they are referring to.
It would certainly be an interesting next turn of events if Google made an offer to buy out Reddit - just for the user-generated content and to stop the site from self-destructing, i.e. the golden goose offing itself.

It's unlikely given current capital interest rates, but at this point this drama has pretty much crossed the borders of plausible fiction anyway.
Wow. Pretty gross. Sarcasm?
It's easy to add interactivity to a NextJS site when you need it.
Ask HN: How do you focus on productivity when working on the computer?
I'm curious what methods people here use to avoid distractions when working on a computer. Obviously computers are excellent tools, but simply having access to an internet browser can be a gateway to a massive time sink.

Some things I have tried:

- Set up a Pi-Hole with distracting websites on the blacklist so the DNS requests do not resolve. I disabled this to dork around on the web today, so clearly not an effective commitment device.

- "Cold Turkey Writer" which locks down your PC giving only a text box essentially, until you write X words. I didn't find this useful for my writing style since I tend to look up additional references/sources as I write, and losing access to that hurt my flow.

- Using a Raspberry Pi 4B as my desktop PC, with the idea being I couldn't play games and YouTube isn't entertaining when 30% of the frames are dropping. I ended up wasting a bunch of time messing with Linux trying to get stuff to work (oh Obsidian needs to be compiled and installed for ARM, oh there's no Google Drive installer for Linux, let's set up rclone, oh the audio driver broke). It was cool to have a fanless, low-power PC but I went back to my Windows desktop out of frustration and desire to have things "just work".

Is it futile to use hardware/software to try and fix a self-discipline issue? What works for you?
Saving money is basically buying into the baning industry’s narrative of a fat bank account, or of borrowing money in order to pay it off for 30 years.

The one they call Batlow seems quite similar to the color scheme Matplotlib calls Cubehelix. I quite like it, particularly reversed (cubehelix_r); it goes to white near zero, which is nice when plotting sparse data, is sequential (which is of course table-stakes for accessibility/black and white printing reasons), but the different colors make it easy eyeball “tiny/medium/huge” points.
I downloaded it, looks slick. Can I use standard frameworks like Bootstrap with this? Also, any docs?

Polish here. In every society there are bad people. No difference in Poland. Sadly, in the article there were no facts mentioned, nor any numbers, that would support a thesis of polish society being strongly involved in holocaust. My grandma survived concentration camp and forced labour camp in Austria. And shocking for me is that no one blame Austria for anything, everyone seem to forget about Germany, the only guilty ones are those mythical 'Nazi' and recently Poles as these German concentration camps were located in occupied Poland.

I am used to reading complicated technical specifications, and my eyes were glazing over midway through reading your comment.

I do not see how an ecosystem where the groups you can join depends on the instance you join is much better than just having every group hosting a phpBB forum somewhere.

The value in reddit was that it provided a 'single pane of glass' for all your interests.
Works very well for me too. Also, I see a lot of people here saying lemmy and other alternatives to reddit will not attract as many users as reddit.

But maybe that is a good thing? Being a popular hangout on the internet seems to be a curse more than anything from my observation over the last decade. If an alternative reaches an amount of active users similar to the early years of Reddit, I would call that a win.
Well, you can control the camera ISP and they use very decent IMX modules, so it really shouldn't an issue like it was with the cheapos, as long as you can do the coding to your needs.

Isn't the rule of thumb 1/9/99 where 1% post, 9% comment, 99% lurk?

Or something like that.
First, a lot of organizations do caution employees against putting anything internal into a search query. It's not an unknown problem, but not as many organizations have a big enough security concern to spend training time on it.

Second, I think the potential exposure via chatbots is a lot higher. Part of the advantage of chatbots over search engines is that you can easily provide more information to refine the output... but that just means that you're encouraged to provide more information.

Certainly training is a factor in this concern though. There are situations where LLMs seem to output training data almost verbatim, which produces a very real possibility that any secrets in the training data could be retrieved by someone who spends time working out a prompt or just stumbles onto it.
It would probably not run on this potato directly, but on an accelerator (be it in-SoC or a separate thing like a Google Coral). The management and control of a Coral needs to happen on a CPU somewhere, but the actual work doesn't involve the CPU much, if at all.

So if you have a thing that has all the data and all the work done on an engine elsewhere and you just need to have a SoC to turn the thing on and off and get the data in and out, that's where a potato-SoC could work. Of course, the potato would need good distro support with up-to-date kernel, drivers, python, libraries etc. and if you're connecting it to the network, best make sure it's also getting patched consistently.

So, as far as ML Potatoes go, that's about it. It is a totally valid question by the way, even if asked in jest.
It's not any different from capitalists having terrible working conditions in their factories. Humans have an enormous capacity to ignore others' suffering as long as they have a good life themselves. And somehow they always find a way to rationalize this.
I suggest a more hybrid model. I’m lucky my local Reddit (the subreddit for my local geographic area) isn’t an Astro-turfed cesspit so I can get a lot of use out of checking it daily (I will know if my morning commute is going to suck). But I refuse to use it except to do things outside of the internet: go on Reddit to figure niche bike paths then go out biking. Go on reddit to find carpentry ideas then go woodworking. I don’t get in purely-online discusssions because you have no exit point.
> Families can decide for themselves what suits them.

But they only can choose from what gets built, and what gets built is ultimately a function of what builders consider profitable and what legislation allows. And what legislation allows is based, to a significant extent, on what infrastructure can be provided to support particular types of residences. If a government decides it can't be bothered (or afford) upgrading or building the necessary infrastructure to support more apartment dwellings then families aren't going to get to choose living in them.
Similarly, what's profitable depends on how taxes and other fees are levied from profits made by property developers and owners etc. Families don't get much choice over that either.
UML would be fine if it was not treated as a design tool, but as an inspection and visualisation tool of already (partially) built systems.

The way it is today is that when somebody insists on designing in UML the design gets created then implementation is at best only attempted, before the whole thing gets scrapped and the actual working system is built because most systems are only discovered as they are being built.
Dead on arrival. There are 6 separate "general" instances. Normal people will never use this.

This one really made me go wtf. It reminds me of those early web 1.0 websites with tons of random gifs and colors all over the place. Looks harmless at first but the contents are kinda toxic.
There is no mass market solution to both the problems Reddit solves and the ones Lemmy solves. Anything like Reddit which is optimized for easy access and broad engagement will draw a lot of non-contributing users, a lot of spammers, trolls, etc., is unwieldy to run, and will need to suck eventually when it comes time to monetize the network effects. Anything like Lemmy, which can be self-supported and necessarily allows people to run and manage their own fiefdoms in ways that are manageable for them, means there is an added layer of complexity which inhibits easy access and broad engagement. To the extent Lemmy can be made easier to navigate, sign up for, or create communities with, it should be. No one should have to recompile a Lemmy kernel or anything, not that it's anything like that. Neither should anyone expect or even want it to be Reddit, which just deferred figuring out how to sustain itself during a prolonged giveaway of utility before its inevitable enshitification.
Reddit's valuation is insane right now, they got in before the "correction" so it's at some absurd multiple.

Anyone trying to buy Reddit would need to basically lowball the hell out of them and make the case that an IPO will only be worse (which may or may not be true).

What you are essentially saying is that the right of certain people to access public spaces should be curtailed because they annoy you. Begging is a right und German law and does not have to happen silently. If that annoys you, how about you contribute to a solution that leads to less people having to beg, instead of advocating for the (clearly illegal and amoral) "solution" of confining people "out of sight"?
Many of the facts aren't reported in the Verge article.

Last month Reddit cut off the Pushshift API (https://www.reddit.com/r/modnews/comments/134tjpe/reddit_dat...). It was widely used by moderation bots such as AssistantBOT. Pushshift will supposedly be restored (https://www.reddit.com/r/pushshift/comments/13w6j20/advancin...), but access must be approved by Reddit and is only open to mods with a Pushshift account; there are also additional usage restrictions. IMO it's an open question whether Pushshift or most of the services using it will ever be restored. Pushshift is now owned and managed by NCRI (Network Contagion Research Institute), which is based around selling the data to intelligence agencies (https://networkcontagion.us/technology/). Access for moderation tools isn't really part of their business model.

Accessibility apps are exempted only if they're free and noncommercial; they also can't access NSFW content. Many popular third-party apps that blind users rely on (https://www.reddit.com/r/Blind/comments/1447ibp/what_apps_me...) are commercial and will either be shutting down or have an uncertain future. It's unclear how many apps will make the transition; they weren't given anywhere near enough notice.

Reddit's CEO has publicly lied about discussions with Apollo's developer (https://www.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/144f6xm/apollo_w...). Their credibility with developers is almost nonexistent. The Verge reporter may be taking their word for it, but few moderators and developers are.

The changes they've already made have led to many popular bots being shut down. (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36343447) lists a few of them. u/SafestBot, one of the affected bots, is widely used to ban spam and troll accounts. It's a moderator at 342+ subreddits. If brigading is a serious problem in your sub, then your life has gotten a lot harder.

The official mobile app is hot garbage and uniquely poorly suited to moderation. Third-party apps save much of the work and are much easier to use. Some subs such as r/traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns (393k users) have announced that they'll shut down because of this (https://www.reddit.com/r/traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns/comments/144tn...).

Indeed, although the de jure requirement in the policy isn't actually important per se, the only practical way to obey the policy is to do the thing we want you to do, so that's what you'll actually do, but the way the policy is phrased makes enforcement practical.

This is different from a "Brown M&M" policy where the purpose of the policy is to easily check that you are actually reading and obeying the policy document. Here the policy is worded in a way that doesn't directly achieve what we want, but is measurable, whereas what we want isn't, but the only practical way to achieve policy compliance is to do what we wanted anyway.

They claim that "[t]he colour gradients are perceptually uniform and ordered to represent data both fairly, without visual distortion, and intuitively", however on my calibrated screen many gradients are visibly biased with non-uniform gradients, especially near the darker end. Most noticeable examples include "batlowK", "lipari", "navia" and even "grayC" which is a grayscale gradient.

In python you always have a lock, the GIL. If you take it away you end up actually having to do synchronization for real. Which is hard and error prone.
I’m probably being needlessly emotional about it. Anytime you look back in history you have all of the foresight from however many years after. I’m sure we’ll know a even more about what’s going on currently in 2023 way off into the future.

On a purely logical level, we did what we could. But when people talk about other world events (WW2 for example) they’ll often wonder why the average person didn’t fight whatever horror was going on then.

Does it ignore the entire context of the situation, yeah. But it’s odd that I think we’re in that time now.

I’m being emotional because I have a cold, I’m in bed, reading something that made me sad. Take that with a grain of salt haha

> Another issue is that commands are utterly unergonomic, requiring lots of rapid Shift presses/releases

Curious. Unergonomic compared to what? Given your comment about separating commands and input language, I assume you’re using a non-modal editor, which usually rely more on modifiers than Vim.

Personally, I haven’t found any ergonomic non-modal editor, where I by “ergonomic” mean no RSI pain even after heavy usage. For me, the fact that editing in Vim is comfortable is its main selling point (more so than its speed).

> mistakes can lead to destructive consequences

I do often make mistakes, but I can’t remember the last time I accidentally did something so destructive in Vim that I couldn’t just undo it normally.
I'd want a 3D node editor interface much like Blender's texture or geometry creation interface. The nodes would be 3D objects (cubes, cylinders, etc) and nested groups of objects w/ physical ports that could be wired together.

Nodes would include class/object/method nodes w/ code blocks. So, an important AR/VR UX feature would be the ability to collapse/dive-into nodes & groups of nodes much like code-outliners in 2D IDEs.

Another awesome feature would be the ability to affix dials/gauges and other displays to the outside of nodes & node groups that would provide indicators of the unit's state: How "full" is a collection node, how often/frequently was this node invoked, the health of the node (errors, exceptions, slow-execution times), etc.
Moderators of forums have rarely been paid, this is nothing new.

I'm delving back into Usenet again after a couple years and yeah, it really is good. Spam seems to be less of a problem every time I look in. Just find some groups that match your interests and if there's not much traffic, well, post! Just post. I'm on alt.ham-radio and some sub-groups, comp.misc, rec.crafts.brewing, rec.music.folk (pretty active!), alt.folklore.computers, and others.

I'm running my own news server now, which is easier than you'd think. Even if you don't run your own server (there's no real reason to) there are plenty of free public servers out there.
Plus a year of electricity. $21k/year is a steal.

> represent some sort of misguided attempt at benevolence

This is the image dictatorships sell to their poor, uneducated, and ill-informed public.

The reality is much worse. Rulers tend to make decisions that benefit those who they share power with (no man rules alone). Dictatorships thrive where there are abundant natural resources combined with an uneducated public. Democracies tend to thrive where a country's main resource is it's people.

North Korea has neither. But those in power wish to remain so, and the cult of personality around "the ruler" and his benevolence helps maintain some form of control over those that are starving. Well that and a lot of guns. North Korea has a well deserved reputation for brutality and suffering.

Checkout the video series Rules for Rulers. It's pretty eye opening, and helped me change the way I look at countries and geopolitics. [1]

I was involved in the drafting of that language and you are 100% correct.
What I imagine would happen is the North Koreans who have suddenly stopped becoming prisoners in their own land trying to enter China, and then China would have to post guards at the border, and be responsible for the mess, including violence, trying to stop them coming in. So the Chinese government probably has an interest in keeping an NK government alive, that way they can claim "He's the evil dictator oppressing his citizens, the mess over there is not our problem!".

I wonder why that's my first thought, rather than the citizens wondering "Well, the government is gone, let's build a collective to self-govern." -- I guess people would rather join a structured society somewhere else rather than try to build one themselves (probably out of nothing, in NK). Not to mention yeah, even if the current asshole is gone, the next asshole is probably busy setting up shop to resume the oppression.
