Backlink from a website with no authority doesn't really help you.

The amount of Mastodon icons on that page sadly also confirm my feeling that Mastodon in general is a very "Anti AI" bubble and it became a lot less fun to hang out there if you are even slightly interested in AI or working with i

That's the only issue I have with ebooks and the reason why I would never read a technical / reference book on it where you want to jump around and have your fingers in some pages to flip back and forth.

Building a social network / two sided marketplace will always be one of the most complicated projects as the technical part doesn't really matter so much but the distribution is the only thing that is important and there's no

If you want to start in that niche you really need to double down on a specific subset of that niche to get people to use it. Right now you are not offering much over Facebook Events or Meetup and the tech / design in this case doesn&#

They actually do.

Yep, verifying the IPs is still the way to go. You often see websites that do it wrong when you set your user agent to Google Bot and they give you a different version of the page without validating that.

I use 1Password, RSS Button (To highlight if the page has a feed, so I can subscribe with my own Miniflux instance), 1Blocker (Ad blocking), Tampermonkey for loading userscripts on some websites, Readdeck extension to easily send something

That gives you the extension, but the workflow within macOS for users is still very user hostile. Problem with extensions might be that the training data isn't that great as there's not that many open source Safari extensions.

I wish they would improve the extension support in Safari. I'm on Safari full time but I always dread the moment I have to install an extension. If the extension even exists (Firefox / Chrome is easy, so developers always do that

In theory that makes sense, in practice I've never had any issues with updating on day one and it's often necessary if you want to develop for iOS / macOS anyway unless you have a dedicated developer machine.

I was surprised to see that macOS is 28GB. Is that all the local models that come with it?

So instead of doing the easy thing (Giving your Claude a read-only role, having snapshots etc.) you decided to patch the database which needs to be kept in sync with every PG release and build a landing page?

Or the main topics just changed to something you are not that interested in, there was always a temporary bias to some bigger topics. If I would not like to hear about funding rounds when money was cheap, being here 5 years ago wouldn'

My favorite part of Rails 8 is the focus on reducing infrastructure and just defaulting to the DB for queue (SolidQueue) / caching (SolidCache), such a nice out of the box experience.

If you scroll Instagram for a few minutes you'll see what they have been working on and that are also making a ridiculous amount of cash by selling and serving ads while burning some on side projects like that.

In what way? I haven’t seen someone say “toot” in a very long time. Tweet I did but that was arguably more entrenched in pop culture over the years.

by dewey 18d ago
Mastodon and X both switched to “posts”. Toots was the old name.

by dewey 18d ago
Thats a bit of an odd comparison as they are in pretty different categories and don’t really compete against each other.

by dewey 18d ago
Most people don't care that much. When I read some comments on Mastodon I get the impression that people absolutely hate it, then I'm reading some comments on X and people love it and build things with it. Then I'm talking to

> Or did they just lie out of their ass and leave everyone worse off? This, but I guess I should've been more clear in my parent comment in saying that by "addressing" should come in heavy quotation marks.

That's kinda implying that they only got elected because they had money and a good campaign instead of addressing issues that are not addresses in an effective way by the other parties. This is probably the case of both things being tr

Lots of links that get submitted here could qualify for that, it's often a content marketing blog post or a funnel to consulting / a service but that doesn't mean it can't be interesting to read (Hence the upvotes).
