Sounds sensible. A pain for the social tools to implement, but could work well in the end.

I tried mastodon last year, but the federated timeline is still very random. I wonder how to find good people to follow :) @f055@mastodon.matrix.org

What about social media marketing? Services like buffer and hootsuite, or enterprise solutions that many tech companies use? Plenty of them have multiple accounts (like Twitter, Google, Microsoft, Apple, Facebook and more...) and share simi

Yes? Almost all top tech companies have multiple @accounts, even Twitter does! I've seen multiple times how these companies post same announcements on multiple accounts. Even Twitter sometimes does that, for example when announcing som

Doesn’t this imply the end of any usefulness of twitter for business and marketing purposes? Big companies have multiple accounts and no one is tweeting directly, it all goes through some central tool in marketing dept. Weird move, twitter.

I'm 34 and Facebook lost me as well. I can't remove my account as I need to use as a developer, but I unfollowed everyone and my newsfeed is empty. It's a bliss. Funny thing is, it's all Facebook's fault. Back in th

Well that's not a first in "misinterpretation". Nuclear disarmament of Ukraine after the collapse of the Iron Curtain was accompanied by a guarantee of Ukrainian borders from US, UK and Russia. [1] But what the fine print did

Hmm I use a browser that disables auto play by default. I bet there’s an add-on for that.

I had high hopes for oko.press but since they seem to have 3/3 negative coverage of the ruling party, and not in an investigative way, but kind of sensational in headlines, I got disappointed. But Angora is an outlet I forgot about but

This. Years ago it was obvious to most newspapers that paid subscribers are their lifeline. Advertisers come and go, daily sales come and go, but long-period subscribers keep you afloat. Somehow, when the respected newspapers moved to the w

I don't know why, but nowadays more often than not I see people ostracised and punished for different beliefs rather than discussed and argued with. I know firing and shutting people down is the easier thing to do in the short term, bu

I didn't get a paywall - maybe try a clean browser? Unless the last sentence is not "When the crash comes, and it cannot be too far away, it will be dramatic." But up to that point the article is weak, and these last words ar

I know RT is not very trustworthy, but let me get this straight - Twitter was inviting RT to spend advertising budget during the US elections, like any other ad sales team would do (Facebook, Google etc.). Twitter got the budget, and RT sta

I believe the assumption that to be really good at something you have to focus 100% on it is fundamentally flawed. It only applies to people with limited capabilities, I guess. I've seen people gaining proficiency in a fraction of time

My take is that full-stack devs are proficient in frontend, backend and sysadmin work. Therefore they are well equipped for either of these roles. To convince the potential employer, I would focus on describing the specific part of my previ

I remember having the same idea, but I always thought the password dialog is distinct from any other dialog available to the app developers. Guess now it all looks the same :P

More often than not simple incompetence is a far more reasonable explanation than complex schemes.

Why? High IQ means you are very good at solving the IQ test problems, not that you are intelligent or genius. I don't think these problems represent anything else, or if there are examples of high IQ people that made actual, genius con

If you knowingly join a ponzi scheme, it's pretty much like a casino - you go there knowing there's a pretty good chance you will loose your money, and a slim one you will win some. Some people like the rush.

The OP explicitly mentions a "Mobile - Emerging Markets" speed test, which is a nice benchmark. I sometimes try to browse the web on EDGE or weak 3G, and 99% of sites do not load in reasonable time, or at all. The old-wide-web of

There are several things at play here. First, it would be great to find a century-long study on the number of millionaires by year. From little I could find it seems their numbers fluctuate like a sinusoid, especially after bubbles burst, m

Maybe sacrifice is not a perfect choice of words on my part, but what I mean is some parents chose to sacrifice consumer goods and instant pleasures so their kids could have it better in the future. You are correct that something is lost he

One thing often omitted, or taken for granted, in the "rich parents" discussion is the curious question of "How did the parents get rich?" Did they have rich parents too? Or did they actually started from very low and go

Hmm, Little Snitch, if configured properly (ie. you allow the browser to only connect to ports 80 and 443) will alert you if a site wants to connect to something weird like 3306, 9000 etc. Then you can kill the packet and nothing happens. L

It seems like a pattern with Bitcoin platforms: 1. Start an exchange 2. Get millions in assets 3. Claim a hack 4. Profit I'm surprised the Nigerian prince didn't jump on this one.
