somehow it does not gain much attraction so far? most people still keep using netfilter which is more mature and widely used.

bpfilter is supposed to be complementary to netfilter, what's its use case mostly, higher throughput performance? I have yet to use it myself.

Facebook might be the most active bpfilter developer. there was a 2021 update: https://www.phoronix.com/news/BPFILTER-2021

The 2021 update related patch did not seem to get merged into kernel, progress on bpfilter is very slow to me.
That's the big problem with anything involving feeback loops. There is a domain where it's unstable and then a small change can cause big and surprisingly rapid effects. Nature is full of such tricky stuff and there is unfortunately no manual so we are learning a lot of this stuff by experiencing it first hand.
Some things can’t be vectorized and sometimes the vectorized implementation requires too much intermediate memory.

IRC bots literally maintained a history for anyone to catchup.
Really a warrant should be required to carry out any kind of in-depth, prolonged, or otherwise invasive surveillance or investigation into someone.

It’s not just which data or where they get it (though surely many types and sources of data should be restricted too, especially without a warrant) but the fact that they are building a profile, targeting, etc. at all. These are things the government/law enforcement should not be doing lightly or without supervision.
From what I gather those high COPs are not actually met in real life since they occur when the temperature difference between intake and outlet are too low to be useful. In practice the SPF (Seasonal Performance Factor, the average COP for a heat pump used for heating and hot water through all seasons) for air-source heat pumps in Germany lies around 3 (value given is 2.99), water-source heat pumps end up around 3.7 (value given is 3.72) [1] which makes them preferable over resistance heating but not necessarily economically effective given the discrepancy between electricity and gas prices and higher installation costs. These results are from 2009, it is likely that more recent heat pumps can achieve better conversion factors.

I somehow fail to see how you cannot implement an IRC server that does logging and offers search/download of them on the side.

That existing IRC implementations may be antiquated mammoth shit shouldn’t prevent anyone from building something new.
I would say it qualifies under unreasonable.

It's unreasonable to expect every citizen to understand when and where their data is being taken.

It's unreasonable to expect people to understand what actions lead to what data points.

It's unreasonable to assess data for unrelated traits that don't match every person perfectly.

It's unreasonable to trust a company selling data to not at some point include illegal data. Certainly not without a verified chain of custody.

It is unreasonable for the government to bypass the constitution by using limited interpretation of language.
A Tale of Two Plea Deals
How old is slack and discord?

Slack is just a modern irc interpretation. It literally started running on top of IRC.

Discord got popular because it was one of the only chats that kids could access and install in school. It wasn’t a serious tool.
Journalists aren't the biggest user base, just the most prominent and the people who "need" Twitter (or something like it) the most in our society.

This is one of the reasons I left that field.
Its from 1997.
Reluctant to Retire, Leaders Raise a Tough Question: How Old Is Too Old?
There’s been a lot of research on self identification in many species. One paper I’m aware of did an analysis of 50 years worth of research on over 30 species. So we have a fairly decent idea about the development of theory of mind and self identification in animals. For example self identification has only been found in social animals, and lacking in all the solitary animals studied.

It seems like there’s a progression from simple organisms with sense/response behaviour but little or no cognitive modelling of the environment. Then organisms that can model and reason about their environment in fairly sophisticated ways. Then some animals develop the ability to model the knowledge, intentions and responses of other creatures. That’s what evolutionary psychologists call theory of mind.

Finally there’s development of a sense of self, and then further on the ability to reason about one’s own thoughts, motivations, intentions and cognitive abilities, and act to change those. That’s us. It’s a continuum though, with various species at different points along the line.

Also, the scientific method took shape in what, the 17th century? Thousands of years, that's quite the stretch for "science".
Or what if instead we required trucks to meet the safety standards of other vehicles? There's no reason hoods that high should be allowed, it's purely for aggressive styling, not any practical purpose.
Having the days history could be useful.

Still maybe there could be a way to summarize those chats with some kind of a transforming generative text system that I hope exists one day.
... all of them?

Name one and show their evidence

Meanwhile... those same "scientists" are silent

What are you talking about

as the solutions to "climate catastrophe"

Now you are mixing 'solutions' with just admitting there is a problem.

My opinion? "Climate Change" is a religion just like other religions

Climate change has huge amounts of evidence behind it. A religion by definition doesn't. If a religion had evidence it would be science.

"Quite quickly" and "so quickly that a basement full of racks of FPGAs, point-to-point radios, transcontinental fibre runs and optical switches are required to extract our value" are maybe not exactly the same thing.
"Only 10 deaths a year from sharks! Dogs, toasters and chairs are way more dangerous." True, in the absolute sense. But most people spend orders of magnitude more time in their kitchen with their dog than swimming with sharks! Is there a name for this fallacy? Risk assessment must consider exposure, ie deaths per hour. If we hung out with sharks as often as we do with dogs, the story would be much different.
Threading is handy though. Although keeping track of so many convos was half the fun of irc.
Thank you for a perceptive and well-stated comment.
I'd love to read some of your own flagged and heavily downvoted comments! They must be doozies. Can you do a database query to find the worst? ;)
First WebGPU App
Good point, connecting to a client or bouncer right on the server resolves this.
No, I much prefer XMPP MUC to IRC.

- Doesn't expose your IP address by default

- No need to fiddle with automating responses to NickServ to log in

- No need to register with that specific chat server, can simply use your XMPP account for any server

- No annoying netsplits

- Supports multiline text messages

- Has avatar, away status, profile info support

- Can show about 20 last messages when you join a chat so you have some context of the conversation

- Nicknames can have spaces and Unicode

- Can transparently join from multiple devices under a single nickname, no need to kill a "ghost" from time to time after a lost connection

- Configurable with GUI instead of cryptic modes designated by a single character symbol that varies from server to server
Problem is, is it something that can be stabilized / reversed? Or will it be somehing that can spiraling into a continuous decline and dangerous?

I read somewhere that a rather high ratio of fertile-age women there don't want children. Smartphone and abundance of cheap entertainment plus tight schedule and budget of modern world (and more other reasons) makes them prefer childless lifestyle.

Let me fix that for you.

“Here are ten reasons why I don't build my own chatbot, and why you shouldn't either.”
australians deeply hate/fear china at a visceral level, which is pretty much the only thing that matters in this relationship.

they'll gladly sacrifice their own economic growth and autonomy to bolster the US hegemony. this is patently obvious to anyone with 2 brain cells to rub together. it's less than 20 million white people sitting on a continent the size of the US. they need protection at any cost, no questions asked. this isn't rocket science.

DC wears the commonwealth crown these days, london is a literal sideshow/museum/slush fund and canberra is basically just a military/listening outpost with a mining station attached.
Not just the House. The Senate is de facto gerrymandered as well. Two senators for 700k in Wyoming vs 40M in California.
The "unreasonable" part of the Fourth Amendment refers only to "unreasonable search and seizure" by law enforcement, not to any and every subjectively unreasonable aspect of society or law.
discord is great, ideal maybe, except for the closed nature.

IRC as a protocol is extremely simple and that has value, and I feel that Discord's UI, search, built-in history, and finer-grained permissions (finer than anything IRC can do, anyway) are all plusses that IRC advocates should not discount.

other great features that Discord has which are discounted by IRC afficionados: replies. inline image and short video support. reactions. very high quality video streaming and voice chat (though IRC can be forgiven here given the time period in which it arose.)

these things almost all matter to modern day users. saying that no one needs them because you don't need them or want them is gatekeeping and is myopic and short-sighted.
The real take away from this post is that you can only get reperations from us companies if you are a US citizen.
Pretty confident you can request a paper cheque.
Or be told about the channels that are not for beginners
We have all the titles we need. We have junior for "that guy who can't do a fuckin' thing unless you tell him exactly what to type." We have senior for "that guy who can take a ticket and implement it." We have lead for "that guy who can take a business idea and implement it."
It’s nice when simple solutions just work.
Or how many times over they don't make up for it.
Last I checked Slack has many more users than IRC
I hear on the grapevine that all US submarines globally are managed from a secret facility in northern Australia, which no longer need to surface as they now have water penetrating signals presumably from LEO satellites. Given that substantial importance alone, let alone Pine Gap, I don't think the US would allow kick-out. They'd just run some kind of CIA thing internally and rejig Aussie politics, which is a joke any way you look at it.... the only creatures in parliament last time I visited were a bunch of galahs doing a bit of grass on the roof. The only people keeping Aussie politicians relatively honest were the ABC, and they've been defunded. Canberra, Australia's political capital, representing the depth and expanse of its defense and political establishment, is its fastest growing city. Yet 45 minutes out of town there is no phone signal, like a developing country, and the bars say their best business comes when parliament is sitting. Source: Visited a month ago.

The way I remember discord is it’s the only chat app kids could generally install, access or use as in school chat.

Then it was the voice chat for any video game play.

Being a Swiss Army knife of chat can be handy to get users together from different chat platforms

How am I doing
> Voice Chat

Integrating a Jitsi bot into the channel solves this.

> Good text chat (images, code snippets, emojis, reactions, etc)

All possible with good old web linking. Link to an image host, a pastebin, or a file host of your choice. Many IRC clients support inline display of image/media URLs.

All major IRC clients and servers support UTF-8 as well, so emoji away.

> Streaming Video (!!)

Jitsi (with a bot) or web linking.

> File share

Web linking.

> Robust bot integration

Quite possibly one of the strongest arguments for IRC. The protocol is well-documented, and it's very easy to write an IRC bot.

> Lack of security problem unlike the self-hosted alternatives have.

Also lack of transparency. The self-hosted open alternatives are auditable and can be inspected. Nobody knows what Discord does with user data or what security issues exist.

> Push2Talk - this is also important, I dont understand how e.g Teams dont have this shit.

Your (possibly self-hosted) Jitsi instance already has this.

> One account between all servers with ability to customize your identity

Until you get banned/blocked for some arbitrary reason, at which point you might as well start over, since everything is gone.

tl;dr: Web linking + some bot integration and client affordances solve all these. This is how the web is supposed to work.

Bad for you and Shopify, but some organizations have a single place of documentation and users still fail to bother checking it. If something is not immediately obvious for them on the ui, they automatically want a phone call with tech support. add to it a small company with a small team of support staff and it turns into an unfair battle. so, every mechanism to resolve the user's issue before you need to involve a human is a tool to make everyone happy and maximally productive.
> it just makes sense to pick an iphone instead of an android due to the ecosystem value

Honest question: what ecosystem are you referring to? Apple watch? Additional hardware you bought? Or are you talking about software?

Because my guess would have been that Apple users are typically embedded in Google's ecosystem as well (Chrome, Maps, Gmail, YouTube, etc).

And it's not clear to me how using a MacBook would influence your phone choice.
Pfff, like we didn't know the best evidence for such a trivia: when you stop eating, you won't develop cancer. Case closed.
Man that really had me scratching my head for the first few sentences… haha. The fake link was a nice touch to build credibility. I’m not on my desktop where I can view source, but I’m guessing it’s an href pointing back at its self.
It’s also like Slack but very noisy.

I don’t get its appeal at all.
I think it depends. The two main definitions I'm seeing for "assassination" are either: any intentional murder (so basically any murder is an assassination), or specifically any politically motivated murder (so a jilted lover killing the president wouldn't be an assassination, but killing your local HOA president could be).
You pay out your ass for one of Elons cars and he's credited with the carbon footprint benefits. Why should he get all the credit?
I also want to add (since I couldn't find any articles in English about it) that 6 influencers were already sanctioned and have the obligation to pin a post detailing their fraudulent practices on all of their social medias for a month.
I think it would have been 'k' if it stood for "constant" since most of them were German-speakers or collaborating with them.

Japan is nowhere near the most densely populated country on earth. It's the 40th. Less dense than Belgium, Israel, India, Singapore, and South Korea, just to name a few. Calling Japan cramped for space is a stretch.

Japan is also not having any kind of managed population decline, unless they choose counterbalance old people dying with immigration. But so far it doesn't look like Japan is eager to embrace immigration. And that will result in a country with many old people and few working-age people. Hard to thrive with such an unbalanced population. That's why the article calls it a crisis.
Better title: The U.K is close to making some chat apps no longer available to UK citizens. No apps are going to adopt this for a country that’s like 3% of its revenue.

I've started telling new grads / interns that ask me "how 2 get jerb" to cut their resume to 1/3 of a page. Because we still need interns and juniors, and we already know they don't know a damn thing, and the only thing that would stand out at this point is _not_ making me read half a page about your capstone.
I think it would be nice to have less people. Like going back in time when there wasn’t as much traffic.
I think of Buckminster Fuller's "Spaceship Earth" concept of how we are all the crew on a spaceship and need to work together, and Jim Morrison's quote, "I'm just trying to get my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames", and I believe the model that humanity operates under is most accurately summarized as "Shithouse Earth".
I've heard of that, but I think the rule changed, Discord even includes an account switcher now.
Exposing corruption, and also working directly with Russian intelligence to influence US elections. Assange is a complicated guy playing in a dangerous world, let's not pretend anyone involved here is a saint.

I feel like this might be a little intellectually dishonest. I think we all know that this comment was never about blind people and their screen readers, but the subversive identity politics that are being played in the name of diversity and inclusion.
The thing that's driven me crazy about Discord since its launch is how bad its read position logging is compared to the service they copied (Slack). I don't know how you catch up on any conversation regularly, especially in a work environment.

As a lay person, Metamorphosis is the strangest biological process I am aware of. Somehow they have evolved to almost completely break down and then reform as a new creature. How did something like this even come to be? Just a fascinating process that I struggle to understand. Insects, specifically social insect as a whole are just incredibly interesting to me as far as how completely alien they are to us.
I don't understand how pull requests would help with reviews. Peer review is generally looking at the methodology and analysis, not simple typos or wording that might be corrected by a pull request.
Pretty much.

Anything a gov or an ideology doesn’t like often gets labeled conspiracy theory, [foreign] disinformation/collusion, terrorism, fascism. Some times throw throw more than one accusation at the idea they despise. Obviously sometimes those accusations are true in order to work, but it’s getting ridiculous now.

All current chatbots that I've dealt with have been terrible reimplementations of phone menus in text, completely unable to handle even a basic freeform question. Maybe the new wave based on LLMs will be significantly better, but I'm not holding out too much hope. Already with phone menus we get railroaded down paths convenient for the controlling entity, rather than being able to engage in a good-faith discussion.

Get out of the cities. California is _big_.
It is of course possible to understand it and still be opposed. That's what makes it so frustrating that seemingly all of the negative coverage is ill-informed; I would love to read some informed criticism!

Just some simple examples:

> Imagine that your digital identity has been lost in some way — shut down by authorities for non-compliance, or otherwise blocked. With traditional cash — and other cryptocurrencies — you can always make a new wallet and stash some fresh coins in it. But this isn’t Minority Report, and you can’t get a new iris from your neighborhood surgeon.

You don't need to walk up to an Orb to create a wallet. You can own and transact worldcoin without ever showing your iris to an orb.

> When your immutable digital identity is locked — imagine merchants who won’t take your coins from you without a digital signature announcing your World ID — it’s over for you. No old account. No new account. No soup for you. You just lost your digital personhood.

This is also possible... with every other form of payment? Imagine merchants who refuse to accept cash. Once the government locks your credit card you're out of luck. Imagine a world where you have to sign in with google before you can pay for anything (why is the worldid dystoia apparently so easy to imagine, while the google one seems silly?). Once the government locks your google account you're out of luck. A dystopia has _many_ levers to pull and refusing to deploy worldcoin is not have any impact on the success of that dystopia.

There is really so much that it's not possible to clarify "exactly" what others aren't getting in a single comment, there are a dozen different misconceptions, if you have specific concerns I'm curious to hear them and attempt to reply to them.
