Same experience. My local machine at $Job is so slow and locked down that spinning up a VM in the cloud + VSCode remote plugin is the only way I can develop now. I would not have switched if I could edit the remote filesystem without syncin

Where do you get the highest quality audio if you want to put in some work? I'd like to jump ship back to a personal library but don't know how I'm gonna extract these 2000 songs I only have 1/4 of locally

Same! It's a field I mess around with a lot as an amateur and was hoping to get a better hang on it for a personal project.

I agree, having a little private intranet is great, it's where I'm at. But losing the interactions that lead to finding those people to share an intranet with that happened more often on early internet makes finding people so time

Using availability as a metric for UI bugs is great. After all, UI is just an API for humans, and it breaking breaks workflows. > These unique kinds of UIs have less convention and unique accessibility characteristics that are expensive

Anecdotally I never found Disboard servers to be of quality (as of 2 yrs ago). The low user count servers were more engaging but there were not a lot of good ones on Disboard. I tried making a web crawler that found invite links in common c

Isn't that the more dangerous space to have a typo? Less noticable and more valuable traffic from the data it contains? Seems odd MarkMonitor wouldn't prioritize that

Love this tool, used it mod a Unity game and learn all the internals to see how to integrate my mod with the base game. Was an invaluable resource. It also taught me a lot about how they made that game (Lethal Company) and how it was truly

Does social search just filter by Reddit and LinkedIn? It doesn't do anything fancier than that? It also doesn't search HN or X?

Do you have any examples of the odious people being banned? It was my understanding that with most social networks the moderation is usually very opaque/can only be gleaned from public comments. Examples would help to understand how Bl

IRL is definitely not fallible but it's better than the internet-only. To my knowledge there's no way to stop a motivated and skilled actor, like a Bernie Madoff It pains me that this feels true as someone chronically online and u

> It seems like the only way to really combat this is through closed / semi-closed trusted networks, This is the only way. The cost of spinning up a new identity on the web (with supporting documents, pictures, etc) is near zero now

What does social search do, and why does it use credits? What index does this search engine use?

It is naive, yet it is still read, believed and scored (and score gives it more trust). The medium still seems trustworthy but the individuals within it are not. And as the internet has progressed, the percentage of trustworthiness has slip

Writing down the simple stuff can be nice if you want to: * Stop doing stuff in that field for months and have previously processed notes to reload in your head when you come back. * Give feedback to maintainers on what worked/what did

The effort it takes most people to write, publish, and share their ideas is already steep. Id much rather this than them not sharing it at all for trivialities such as capitalization.

Will they need a bail out? The lifetime of ad content is so short and is always being replaced such that the quality need not be high. ML can more than achieve it. The code and creative I've seen and worked with on advert sites fits wh

It'd just be nice if it was consensual. It is resource intensive to try to opt out of/avoid the ad-based society. And you never truly can as some data sharing and ad watching is almost compulsory (video/sound ads at gas pumps

There's too many fiddly bits of which endpoints return what data in which shape that requires a custom solution each time. An LLM would probably have a very easy shot at this problem though. It's much more straightforward if you c

I've been in this position a few times now. God is it hard to explain to other people, especially when you know how success is metricized by others and silently judged. But at the same time, the collection of life experiences gained by
