I suspect there's a simple explanation. Sometimes people go on massive subject binges and there's likely certain videos that are more likely to trigger this than others. If you watched one the youtube algorithm is basically asking

It'll get worse. Being on reddit anchored them to a wider community and gave them rules to abide by. This meant the true nastiness wasn't on display only hinted at. People drawn in by the memes from wider reddit weren't immed

I don't honestly think I'd mind. I think they should prioritise physical controls for stuff you use regularly and I'd be happy to have voice on controls for stuff I use very infrequently. Like putting the rear window wiper on

Everyone decided to wait to upgrade till the new gpu's were announced from what I can tell. I upgraded my mobo & cpu in october and the same cpu (ryzen 5 3600x) is about £50 more expensive and there doesn't look to me that man

The general public are reddits audience now not "early internet adopters". I know from running a geographically based small niche subreddit that users and post volume have gone up dramatically in the past 1-2 years. The people who

The people who still have their jobs, but have had nothing to spend their money on for 8 months probably will.

yes, you've articulated it better than I did. It took me a long time to come to shift to this way of working and it made a huge difference to my productivity and stress levels.

I used to be a "grand project dreamer", believe me I know the feeling. The feeling of reluctance I think is from your subconscious questioning whether half the stuff you think you need is actually required and then you're stu

This is self correcting. The mod will see the inevitable shit storm and ban anything that looks remotely like it in the future. The filter bubble of amateur taxidermists will filter it out in the future. "Statements like that need to b

People like their own online bubbles in much the way they like their own offline bubbles. If you're sick of hearing the shit some people spew in the real world you don't go out of your way to be in the same places as them if you c

I think instead of deplatform them, it's trying to force them off onto their own platform. When racists (or similar "undesirables") share a larger platform they've kinda got to be on their best behaviour, they can't

I really like Roam, it seems to be made by people who're thinking deeply about what a note taking system should be, I don't mind paying for that reason. I think there are a bunch of alternatives out there, just googling roam resea

I agree. This is one of those laws on the books to punish people who the EU (or relevant national government) think needs to be punished. It's end result is just endless fucking annoyance to use any website and from every one of these

It's not really propaganda, it's a demographic shift of who uses the site and especially the major subs. Reddit always had a monoculture of sorts in the major subs, it's just new users who have a new monoculture have started

My system as of right now... Todoist on my phone for tasks. I like todoist because it's got a nicely polished interface and an excellent API. I use an AWS Lambda to define and push repeating tasks into Todoist at set times, it also mov

When you can effectively spawn a new server with a command line you've got saved in your notes... it kinda feels a bit inefficient to be physically building and deploying them yourself. It's also really pretty amazing to be able t

My suspicion is that Google employee's were seeing their dns fucked with at public wifi hotspots (something that was happening at the time) and decided to build their own dns for their own security. Being Google and having boat loads o

Basically. If you go down you're probably in the company of half the fortune 500. And of course AWS is a legitimately capable and useful platform that does remove a lot "ops" although it probably frontloads a lot of "con

by dageshi 6y ago
In some sense I suppose if AWS goes down in some fashion it's kind of like an act of nature. There's nothing individually you could do to prevent it. On the other hand if you self host and there's an outage, the buck stops wi

Headlines shouldn't be manipulated to make life easier for politicians... Also, the issue will not be which vaccine is chosen, but above a certain percentage of effectiveness who can even supply enough of their vaccine to meet demand?

by dageshi 6y ago
Better that than to be seen to overstate its effectiveness. The worst case scenario is people refuse to take it because they think they're being lied too or manipulated in some way.

To put it bluntly, who wants to give anti-vaxxers more ammo to make noise with? "They're lying to you, they claimed it's 90% effective but actually it's 70%".

Once upon a time Google would've been applauded for forcing people to improve their security. Like when they made https a ranking factor for sites and overnight forced all the laggards to move off http. Now, people just scream "mo
