The patrons of creative commons are by no means free loaders, and that concept being injected belittles a lot of the point.

>Do you hate Wikipedia's politics...

That's exactly the point, how would they know? What if they know they dislike the politics but wish to continue to support infra costs and the like because of the real value Wikipedia offers the world? No option.

Surely this list isn't accurate?

"Motion picture projectionist" is one of the top 5 occupations with the highest projected growth..? In 2023? Color me doubtful!

Both lists have items that really make one scratch their head. The movie one specifically really feels like someone started plotting a line from 2020, during the height of the pandemic, to right now, with Barbenheimer, and is treating that tiny window as the trend line representing meaningful growth (rather than looking at theater performance as a whole, which is still about half of what it was at its peak in 2018/2019.
> This is similar but not quite the same as Server Driven UI1. Perhaps we could call it Server Informed UI.

I think we should just move back to server side rendering, JSP and even ASP were great, plain HTML, some JavaScript where desired since we can't seem to get away from JS.
Kris and I got to know each other a bit over the years. I still remember our first meeting vividly. We met for dinner at a Mexican restaurant in Capitol Hill and spent the evening talking containers, Linux, Kubernetes, and Open Source. This is a tough loss. I will take small in the fact that it happened doing the thing she loved.

Bryan Lunduke has kind of gone off the deep end the past few years. It does always seem bizarre that Wikimedia alone gets called out when companies like Apple alone have enough in just cash to fund Wikimedia for the next 1,000 years.

Unless you believe that any cent over the cost to do business is unethical to collect, why should Bryan Lunduke be any more qualified to be able to determine that Wikimedia is misusing their money than the people running the organization. I am assuming here that he is okay with private property rights.
I agree. I'll just stop donating money like you suggest. But if you're wondering what the purpose of the article was, it was to inform people like myself who didn't know their regular donations weren't actually paying for wikipedia. It seems best to just contribute article fixes, wikimedia images, etc, and direct support of the actual wikipedia/media projects going forwards. Not money.

I don't understand the comparisons to megacorps. It's not like anyone is donating to Apple or the NYT.
Politics aside, I do think it's an incredibly bad look to regularly break out the sad eyed Jimbo Wales banner begging for money to help keep Wikipedia running when they're so far away from a shortage of funds that they feel they can give part of the donations away to other organizations.

When you accept charitable donations, you have a duty to use those donations for the intended purpose. You aren't legally required to do this, but you're expected to do it. If you don't do it, or misrepresent what you're asking for, people will get upset. They will feel like you squandered their donation. They will write about it, and tell their friends.

I don't think this is strange at all. WMF has a reasonably good name due to the value and popularity of Wikipedia. Reputation is fickle though. It doesn't take much before WMF becomes that organization that said they needed money, but gave away all the donations (even if they only gave away a small portion; but that's public perception for you).

It's also important to emphasize that for an organization like the WMF, reputation is everything. You can not do donation-based charity work without a good reputation. The entire model hinges on the organization being trusted.

Sounds like your message implied that being autistic meant being an asshole, which categorically isn't true.

You can be accused of being an asshole, it doesn't mean it's because of your autism though - and going "autistic = asshole" is absolutely worthy of a ban.

Maybe don't be so quick to portray your own experiences onto autistic people as whole. If you wanted more specifics about what Kris meant by "don't be an asshole," you could've asked her (or any Hachyderm staffer).

You are not every autistic person, and not every autistic person is an asshole.

Portraying all autistic people as assholes - or implying that by virtue of being autistic, they can't not be an asshole - is incredibly ignorant and ableist.

While I sympathise with your struggle with intent or clarity, it does seem that you were an asshole, and your projected assumptions about autistic people because of your own experiences are harmful, not helpful.

RIP Kris.

She was one of my favourite people to follow on Twitter, and for understandable reasons she left there to start the mastodon instance but I didn't really use it much.

Really shocked to hear the news, she was very influential.
That's brutal because it was unexpected, and her loved ones could not say good bye.

You've summed it up perfectly: "40 billion would probably get SpaceX to Mars."

It's taken a lot of effort for me to adjust my communication style to avoid those situations. Happily it's mostly paid off, but I'm sad that my son will likely need to walk the same path somewhat.
It's not. The whole thing is a joke.
You chose quite the counterexample. Siddhartha Gautama was royalty before he became the Buddha. He pursued yoga for six years after having been married and had a child before he sat down to do nothing. He was an introspective rich kid. He was not a laborer at any point.

Further, Buddhism originated in temperate zones where asceticism works and originated separately because you can easily survive outdoors year round and eat very little (that is not naturally provided) because of low thermal demands on your body. You don’t see very many ascetics very far from the equator.

You mistakenly equate lack with poverty, which is the point I was trying to make more subtly in my earlier comment.
I am the target audience.
False; there are plenty of opportunities for him to contribute. He could be an editor. He could write and run bots. He could design and build tools that run on WMF's cloud platform. He could help develop the MediaWiki software itself. Myriad opportunities to contribute to a free project.
Largely because (as I have said over and over) it is not a "Tesla problem" is a problem with where the industry is moving. Tesla may be the most famous for these things, and they often get more attention here simply because of their polarizing owner.

However Ford, GM, and many other Manufacturers have expressed the desire to move to a more Tesla style sales for their EV's, Ford for example reorganized the entire company into 2 divisions to support some of these sales method changes.

>>I actually doubt the claim that you would order a Tesla and then refuse it on delivery if the driver isn't carrying the paperwork,

I absolutely, 100% would, as I would have insisted that I have said paper work before delivery, and the transaction would not have proceeded with out said assurance so if we got to the point of delivery and I still did not have the legal paperwork then I would not take delivery as I would have no proof of ownership.
Skinwalker Ranch is one of the most famous sites in contemporary parascience, and Bigelow has been involved in it since long before AATIP (roughly since 1995; Harry Reid may have been on board with the project that entire time although it's difficult to say for sure). Colm Kelleher has also been involved in Skinwalker Ranch since the start. So I think it's important to understand that this is not a case of the DoD taking interest in Skinwalker Ranch, but a case of Bigelow directing their interest there.

Despite occasional claims by Bigelow, Kelleher, and others, paranormal phenomenon are not clearly documented at Skinwalker Ranch prior to the ownership of the Shermans in 1994, immediately before they sold the property to Bigelow. The exact details of this transaction, how Bigelow became aware of the property, etc., are opaque, but it presents a substantial possibility that the paranormal history was fabricated by the Shermans to motivate the sale.

Bigelow and his various organizations (NIDSci, a more genera parascience and paranormal organization, and later BAAS, his aerospace company) have owned the ranch and been conducting research there for 27 years, and yet they have failed to produce any reasonable documentary evidence of the phenomenon. What they have produced is innumerable stories like this one, full of intrigue but absent of evidence. Some might see it as too dismissive to suggest that there isn't something paranormal at Skinwalker Ranch, but at this point people even in the UFO community are inclined to agree that Bigelow has made a huge effort and doesn't have anything to show for it.

Bigelow's decision to completely close the property to entry by other researchers, and hiring a small security force to keep people out, has been taken as a bit of an affront. This coincided with his signing a number of media deals including a "Curse of Oak Island"-esque History Channel series, creating the appearance that Bigelow is more interested in finding funding and press than finding the truth.

I have previously expressed my belief that Bigelow's involvement in DoD UAP programs, facilitated by Sen. Reid, was primarily an effort to obtain government funding to continue his Skinwalker Ranch pursuits. This article seems to support that perspective.
https://www.accountingtools.com/articles/functional-obsolesc...

The economic incentive for OOP is absolutely gone and cannot be recovered. The technical purpose of OOP is mostly gone and no longer desirable. The continued desirability of OOP is some variable combination of aesthetic and social. While those qualities are not without value they aren't functional, thus OOP remains popular but certainly not for reasons of utility or necessity. Other approaches now achieve superior desirability when considered only from a utility perspective. That means OOP is functionally obsolete.
I don't know that I buy it because the Nazi and German Communist movements had their roots in the defeat of WWI, a monarch who resigned, radical changes in government, and the hyper-inflationary period of the Weimar. It was even predicted that the Treaty of Versailles would be ruinous. Although I am sure someone will disagree, it's hard to see how there were many improvements to life prior to about 1920 for German people that would cause frustration in the way described. I think it's still possible some movements are directly a result of lack of improvement.
> The smartest people are the ones who know the limits of their expertise and say so.

No.

This is the most common mistake the anti-Musk crowd makes. They fail to differentiate between a person being intelligent and having good self-control. They are not the same thing.

Musk failing at Twitter doesn't make him stupid. Musk having poor impulse control does not make him stupid. What you see in the Musk detractors is their own idiocy and or poor impulse control on display, in the way they go after him by proclaiming that he's stupid or the equivalent, it shows off their inability to think deeply and to control their own emotional impulses (to lash out; a failure to think rationally, a failure to be able to dissect a topic dispassionately). It's rather interesting that Musk's poor impulse control lures the same behavior out of his detractors (which is exactly what Trump's wild behavior did to his detractors, they have been wildly rabid for seven years non-stop; Trump acted wild, they reacted wild).

Intelligence is no guarantee of self-control, discipline, focus, integrity, work ethic, et al.

Smart people can be cruel. Smart people can be very lazy. Smart people can be liars. Smart people can be x y z. And in exactly the same way, smart people can have poor impulse control, behavioral disorders of all sorts, or just be lazy and not develop their work/task focus capabilities throughout adulthood.

There is also an interesting difference between smart/intelligent and wise. Musk is very intelligent, he may not be particularly wise. Knowing, understanding and accepting your limits is generally an area of wisdom rather than smartness. Properly acting on your acquired understanding of your limits would be maturity / personal responsibility (integrity is typically a major factor in that mixture). I don't think Musk is a very mature person, and of course his tweets have put that on display for many years now.

Have to disagree with this. API is not always for FE. It can be consumed by other service, or a script. Making generic API helps reuse of common API across web pages. For example notification, user profile.

Truly stunned and saddened to learn of her death. By happy accident I discovered Hachyderm soon after I started really using Mastodon. I was very impressed with the space Kris created and the community she fostered there.

My heart breaks for those who knew her personally, and for her family and loved ones.

RIP Kris
In general the left assigns a mortality to an issue rather than view something from objective viewpoint. Are trans rights a human right or an objective idea to be discussed by anyone? If a person can choose a gender identity why isn't it rational for someone to be able to choose a racial identity?
> And doesn’t reward them for their contributions, thus, removing the “feeder” creativity. Soon, schools stop teaching art, because no one wants to become one, and the algorithms end up using the output of other algorithms as their input, and original creation dies.

This implies that without a support structure, people are not interested in creativity. Which is absurd. People are still interested in creating even if they're not compensated for it. Many people are proactively creative at great personal expense.

People painted long before it was taught in a formal setting, and people will continue to paint even if they can't use it to pay the bills (as - quite frankly - most painters do)
Netflix extra DVD offer ahead of service shutdown confuses some customers
They are confused, and seem not to realize that ABIs exist, and often specify alignment requirements. They seem to believe there are just ISA and architecture specs.

When you compile for Linux x86_64 ABI, gcc assumes that the stack is 16 byte aligned because it’s required by the ABI.

Regardless of whether the ISA needs it.

If they want the compiler to make no assumptions about aligned accesses, they would need to define an ABI in GCC that operates that way and compile.with it. They were historically supported (though its been years since I looked)

Tweets are embedded in tons of news articles as primary sources, and often require the image to make sense. Like it or not, Twitter is a primary source for a significant proportion of history worldwide, as it contains a lot of first-person reporting and evidence.

Twitter's not just about documenting what you had for breakfast; it's also about documenting civil war atrocities.
For whatever it's worth to you, I don't think of myself as easily impressed. I saw Ted give that demo at a small conference around 10 years ago. I was impressed.

Whatever part you played in that, well done, and thank you.

I got to speak with him briefly afterwards, and to say that he had a chip on his shoulder would be putting it too strongly, but there was definitely some kind of an 'edge' there.

You forgot about bandwidth costs. The entire benefit of a CDN is moving data closer to the user to not only speed up access time, but cut down on data transfer fees. So you can either replicate your entire database across all CDN nodes (and pay more for duplicated storage), or you can have cold storage in one location (and pay more for transferring the data).
I don't get the contradiction. Are you implying that security update don't 'just work' or that Debian doesn't push security update?

The kind of 'just works' that most refer to is that they turn their computer on and start working, rather than turning their computer on, being forced to login to a net account, being forced into a tutorial dialogue for a newly added feature, and then realizing that BigCo deprecated your file format support last forced update because they replaced it with TheNewWay.
At a point of sacrifice I would put breaks and evaluate utility and future of relationship. If we have reached a place where I am expected to be on negative return, hm it requires some roadmap.

Overcoming systemic bias is critical for a global democratized information platform like Wikipedia, ensuring that all cultures, languages, and histories are represented fairly and comprehensively. This isn't merely a 'political' stance but a necessary step in ensuring the inclusivity and universality of knowledge.

Also, comparing the costs of the "Knowledge Equity Fund" to just server expenses is an oversimplification. The intricacies of verifying, curating, and representing diverse knowledge sources can't merely be equated to server space costs. Such comparisons seem more than a little disingenuous, given the complexity and importance of the work involved. What's the point of running a $2.4 millions server full of garbage?
