That's not necessarily true, is it? All participants of an instance or group could practice https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_democracy to form and enforce a set of rules without hierarchies. Not saying that's what happened here though...
What you learn in any decent 3D CAD software will be easy to translate to another one. Fusion 360 is a great package, but it's not because it has particular features that don't exist elsewhere. You can learn CAD on Fusion and leave it for another package later.

What you'd lose are your designs however. 3D designs don't convert well.

But currently there is no 3D CAD software that is good for mechanical design and has a good and free license for hobbyists.

You don't want to on a platform that has loads of unique "users" and impressions if most of those users are bots, though.

Perhaps quality is actually better than quantity?

Serverless to monolith – Should serverless lovers be worried?
It isn't really the right solution.

Datum planes are usually unnecessary; cluttering up a design with a plane per sketch is certainly the wrong way to go about it.

You can place each sketch with the same tools you place a datum plane -- by editing the attachment and attachment position. (You just can't do it at the point of creating the sketch in the same way as you can when creating a plane).

You can then use expressions in those positions, including e.g. the width/depth/length of other objects (using the length of another Pad would be one very common scenario). Or you can use values from a Spreadsheet.

And TNP won't always bite you anyway. It's possibly better to learn how to fix attachment issues than clutter up your design with datum planes.

Learning how to place sketches in arbitrary space is so core to FreeCAD that it's probably worth going through the pain on this.

Datum planes do have uses -- like when you want to attach large numbers of sketches to a single plane, or when you want to model some arbitrary plane without using physical geometry. They are also useful for e.g. cutting holes up to a face (because the plane can substitute for a face)

They are also helpful, I find, when I am using an LCS for some feature.

But quite often you see people trying to work around TNP with a datum plane, only to attach that plane to the same object that will have the TNP.

This tutorial on attachment may help you (it's a bit involved)

But the various Mango Jelly videos about sketch attachments are well worth watching.

Show HN: FileMonger – Track Changes of Any File (+ Diffs for Screenplays, Docx)
I've built FileMonger mostly because I needed a way to track the change history and show diffs for screenplay formats (FadeIn and Final Draft).

Once such a file is added to FileMonger, every save is stored in the history tree.

Since Screenplay files are similar in that sense to something like a Word document, I've expanded the functionality so it'll be useful to more people.

from wikipedia:

> According to some Arabic writers, Musa's gift-giving caused a depreciation in the value of gold in Egypt. Al-Umari said that before Musa's arrival, a mithqal of gold was worth 25 silver dirhams, but that it dropped to less than 22 dirhams afterward and did not go above that number for at least twelve years.[95] Though this has been described as having "wrecked" Egypt's economy,[83] the historian Warren Schultz has argued that this was well within normal fluctuations in the value of gold in Mamluk Egypt.[96]

Seems like this might a misleading folk tale.
Might also have a little something to do with the fact that the USA was the only major economy that didn't have its industrial base bombed out during the war. The monocausal explanations from mises.org and friends have always seemed less than compelling to me.
Who do you think is orchestrating this demise? Do you think Elon is willfully participating or is he being manipulated?

I totally agree that:

> We’ve got a crisis of unhappiness in this country and psychedelic therapies are absolutely a powerful tool we could use to help people find themselves.

But our blues haven't appeared from nowhere. We have significant cultural institutions that function primarily by dividing the populace against itself. Getting healthy likely means waking up to the fact that we're under attack and doing something other than "self care" about it.

So I disagree with:

> the structures of power are so solidified I’m not sure there’s really much actual risk to them from drug legalization.

They seem pretty shaky to me. Which is for the best. Being powerful should come with a fear of the people you have power over. If you're one weird trip away from a revolution then it's probably time to start treating your people better.

That impact is not made by HFT - finding the right risk premia for different investments is very valuable but that is a signal measured over days/weeks/months because actual capital investment decisions take that long.

Intraday financial games are zero-sum. What HFTs gain, they leech away from mutual funds and pension funds and retail investors and market makers who operate over a longer horizon.

It sounds like you're arguing from a hypothetically perfect view with 20/20 hindsight. Scaling problems are good problems, solvable at the right time without the evils of premature optimization. Doing work without a need is wasted effort.
So bluesky has been in development for 2+ years, is well funded, is invite only, has a few thousand total active users, and still can't handle the load.. Is this supposed to be the great Twitter killer?
But with the rate limits, we can’t even hate-read their tweets anymore. This is probably a good thing.
I don't think there's any kind of global anti-drug conspiracy.

Anti-drug fear mongering is a byproduct of few factors: ignorance (people confuse crack, LSD and say MDMA, labeling everything as drug), valid fears (LSD was legal while being underresearched and that lead to few terrible events), self-propelled drugwar cycle (drugs caused wave of fear, became a good target for politicians, that caused even more fear mongering and the cycle is closed), and valid historical concerns (many drugs are very bad and caused pretty terrible historical precedents like opium abuse in China).

People are getting more educated on drugs these days, and more questions arise in the society regarding if certain kinds of drugs like LSD should be more available. Though it would be a long road.
Seeing that, I think what we're seeing is power lines arcing, not ball lightning. Still hard to tell with the original video, but assuming those power lines on his left continue and are just lost in the video noise and lack of contrast, the fireballs are right where the lines would be.

I’m conflicted here. I’m familiar enough with online “leftist” (especially of the supposed anti-colonial stripe) spaces to know how many bad, often highly illegal things are coordinated there. But I’m familiar enough with the FBI to know that their actual activities often consist of terrorizing political dissidents for no other reason than to neutralize their opinions. Without more information, it’s sensible to to default to innocent until proven guilty and push the FBI to justify themselves.

Small restaurants doing delivery doesn’t make sense as an example.

The only structures that were torn down were things that required capital and upkeep. So for example, once you starve the beast of the taxi industry, then the fleet decays and they can’t compete without new capital investment.

For a small restaurant delivery, they can at any point hire another person to run orders just as they always could, with no loss. The reason this is not viable is because the whole economy got disrupted by covid and now it’s not actually feasible for someone to earn a living just moving parcels of food around locally. Like literally the unit economics don’t resolve positively because CA minimum wage is $15 an hour and you need even more than that to have a decent life.
Is it really "teaching" that is being conveyed? I mean, yes, you get a suggestion for a mostly correct solution, or it points in the right direction. But how much has your brain really been reprogrammed and "learned" in the process? I fear that our problem-solving skills are somehow short-circuited and we rely too much on LLMs to spit out the most likely solutions. Alternatives, hard thinking and exploration may be left behind. So in what discipline will the inexperienced become more experienced? Prompt engineering, copy-pasting, short-cut action … but what about critical thinking, understanding and meta-learning?

Both sides of this argument are laden with assumptions. It’s a more opinion-based discussion than most. It’s a philosophical wormhole with no clear answer.

(Not saying I agree with this.) It’s a perfectly reasonable conclusion that using an ad blocker is morally wrong.

> they also federate with mastodon

True, though the Mastodon compatibility is a bit iffy at the moment; they use ActivityPub in sufficiently different ways that it's not really possible to meaningfully access a Lemmy community via a Mastodon client, for example. I believe if it works at all, you'll basically just see a firehose of comments/posts.

Can't wait for Elon's AI startup sending me answers in 1/35 threads.

I think Elon's real plan is to ride the AI hype train, and the best way to do that is to pretend that Twitter is their "moat".

With his capacity for bullshit and the market's willingness to give gobbles of money to bullshit, I'm sure he can ride his bullshit AI startup to $50B valuation easily.

Also, taking Elon's word at face value for a second... is Twitter really worth scraping for AI training or whatever?

Its a hive of misinformation, disinformation and toxicity. Its succinct I guess, but nothing is eloquent or descriptive because of the character limit. And its full of repetitive "filler" information.

Who wants that in a foundational LLM dataset?

Maybe its OK for finding labeled images... But that still seems kidna iffy.
They still show as unused on my end, but maybe that’s impacted by the outage.

That's a completely fair point a few people have made. But I think the idea is, if you are a creator, the AI is doing something that you might call copying if it were a person. If it does that, what is your redress as the creator?

The very first chat room I ever used was Sierra Online’s web chat way back in 93. It was comet based, just like this, and I’ve never understood why comet was never more common, especially before websockets were a thing.
This has to be the dumbest idea I've ever seen any social media company make and that says a lot.

First, I can't find any documentation explaining the rate limits. Just his tweet. Is this a rolling limit? Where do I see how many posts I've allegedly read? Do replies count as posts? Also, you can't go back and re-read the tweets that counted toward your limit.

His tweets are getting over 20,000 replies. That means that if posts count, even if you paid for your account you still can't read all the replies for a single tweet.
This also worsens the experience for existing paid users because the whole point of posting something is so that your followers see it. And if he's trying to get new paid users, why would anyone pay to get a far worse experience than they were just getting for free yesterday?

To add to the absurdity, the error you get is "Something went wrong. Try reloading." And once you hit the rate limit you can't even view the Twitter Support account or your own profile. You can however still see Tweets in your notifications.

On top of that, this isn't how you handle bots/AI. That's not the purpose of rate limiting. Wrong tool for the job. This is incompetence no matter how you look at it. None of this makes any sense.
Did you forget that newspapers exist?

How could he? 95% of the "news" on the internet is stuff that's regurgitated from what newspapers and magazines published a day, week, or month ago.

When it comes to news, you get what you pay for.

More and more I'm starting to think "If it lights up, don't trust it."
any others?
I can’t use them as well.
This is the main insight I got:

>the original architecture was based on a tool that was not designed for scale. Based on the article, it read as if this tool was used for diagnostics to perform ad-hoc assessments of stream quality. This means it likely wasn’t designed for scale or put through the pressure tests of a formal design document / review. If that were to happen, any run of the mill Software Engineer would have been able to recognize the obvious scaling / cost bottlenecks that would be encountered.

Lesson learned: ensure your design is sane before turning your PoC into a full blown production system.
Recently in Ethiopia there's been a cessation of food aid because the sheer scale of the corruption in the system was uncovered.

https://apnews.com/article/ethiopia-humanitarian-food-aid-38...

https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2023/jun/29/e...

This isn't as simple as "Just throw more money at 'em" or even "just send more food." Decades of this casual attitude has led to governments who simply shrug and leg the international community handle the business of feeding their people, freeing them up to do other things with their money, such as murdering whole regions full of people. Food and monetary aid is also used as a weapon, shared with allies and regime supporters, and denied to "undesirable elements."

And frankly none of that would matter to the Pakistani men on the boat in question in OOP's article, none of whom were desperate for aid. They wanted a better life for them and their kids, they wanted economic opportunities, and they weren't getting that in Pakistan. An uptick in aid wouldn't change that either!

You can just use the classic temporal logic approach, where state is passed explicitly as a parameter and the new state is returned.

This is what state monads are doing anyway under a hidden syntax, and for simple cases it may be easier that building a full dedicated monad.
Increasingly, many don't.

Both print and online.

Those that remain, outside national papers, are often thin husks of themselves.

A year or so back, the Chicago Sun-Times effectively paid the local NPR affiliate, WBEZ, to take over the paper. That is negative value.

And the competing city daily, the Chicago Tribune is arguably doing worse.

That's in the 3rd largest city and metro region of the US. Many other cities are in similar shape, or have no traditional newspaper journalism at all. There's some coverage through TV & radio, though often it's the local NPR affiliates which seem to do the heavy lifting.

They can do that with waves that come from LIGO because they happen to have frequencies that are audible when converted to sound. In this case the wave periods are measured in years rather than milliseconds.
This is exactly the opposite of my experience with it.

Getting it to code, it can save me, a fairly experienced coder, quite a lot of time because it can do some boring things - boilerplate stuff, or things I can’t be bothered to look up. And I can tell if it’s done it right or not.

I’ve seen people with less coding experience use it and just take its suggestions at face value with painful results and definite detriment to their learning.

The best test I’ve seen for what it’s good at is things that are hard to do, but easy to check.
Is there any air war that the USAF would not be in a turkey shoot that is not a direct war against China? Let's be realistic here... The US expects to have full air supremacy against most any adversary. They certainly would against Russia. Despite Russia having a few exceptional air superiority fighers. They're only "as good or worse" as the best American equivalents and they might have one tenth as many as the US does.

Interesting.
I learned bass guitar (fretless - I don't much like fretted bass) without a teacher, and did fairly well at it. I was able to get gigs etc. and play adequately at an amateur level.
For learning double bass, later, a teacher was useful and perhaps even necessary. It is a physically harder instrument and direct feedback from someone in the same room watching me was very helpful.
From a teaching perspective, I have taught fencing for over 30 years. One thing I notice with many students is that they lack the ability to use proprioception. They think they are doing the thing they are supposed to do, but cannot feel that their body isn't doing it. Unlike a YouTube video I can see this and let them know, and also suggest means by which they might get to their goal.
Having said that, I had one student who did quite well studying YouTube videos during the pandemic when classes were suspended. That student still benefitted from coaching later, but it was more along the lines of refinement of existing skill rather than imparting the basics.
In relation to videos, these are useful for improving fencing also. Students will often be surprised to see what they look like during a bout.

I think you get as much, or even more, as when asking someone more senior. You get the benefit of "scaffolding" when working on a task at the limit of your ability, and it's probably even better than asking a human, since you're forced to stay on your toes, in case it's hallucinating.
The effectiveness of this sort of lockdown is questionable anyway, because the cat's already out of the bag and there's no getting it back in. Same for Reddit. The bulk of the data's already out there and nothing these companies can do will change that.
