There is a whole world of nerds who do this in their job every day. They are fun people.

https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/ has all the papers. To follow discussions, it's probably best to attend the standard meeting online or in person.

If you are waiting for a Rust-like feature that guarantees memory safety - this won't happen. Changes to the language required for this would break too much. Also, existing code wouldn't compile anymore because it contains a ton o

I have discovered that the software is not really relevant, it's mostly the organization employing it that makes a living hell out of teams productivity. Jira can be configured to have 4 simple task states and no required fields. It ca

Wait, did you happen to work at Citrix a few years ago? I ran into the exact same problem, also working on audio processing engines :)

There's a lot of complexity in the stack that makes a web server run. Nobody would suggest designing their own chips to do so. People insist that cloud computing is adding complexity when it often is a useful abstraction that allows co

You can use Debian stable as a base image and run its nginx everywhere where there is Linux. The host OS doesn't matter much if everything is containerized.

Rebase is used for many things in a lot of workflows. I use it probably 30 times per day in my job.

Nice job. In my own usage of state machine libraries over the years I have found that for complex use cases, it's definitely helpful to have event-based transition dispatching be part of the library. The great benefit of FSMs is that y

There's also the opportunity cost of not using nuclear fuel right now, instead burning fossil fuels and incurring all the irreversible long term damage that comes with it.

This is stupid. Battery lifetimes has come a long way (1000-2000 cycles are the norm) and will improve in the future. Devices are much denser and are waterproof. There are trade offs and customers have chosen to favor designs that do not re

The vast majority of power users are not a moderator either (although most moderators are power users).

by jupp0r 3y ago
I can't prove this, but I believe that being an open platform with lots of cool apps built around it used to be what drove its power users towards using Reddit in the first place.
555.
by jupp0r 3y ago
Then why is it worthwhile to alienate all users with these API restrictions just so that users move to in house mobile apps?
556.
by jupp0r 3y ago
Or just invest in building mobile apps that people love to use more than the alternatives.

My best guess is that somebody will write a clone. It's not rocket science.

It's not Reddit's content, it's the community's. It's literally users wanting to access their own stuff in a different way. If Reddit thinks it's theirs, they will soon notice that nothing is left of their busi

Do expensive cars create worse traffic?

Not sure how familiar you are with the realities of driving a car in Lower Manhattan, but as somebody who has visited the place a few times, I can assure you that poor people cannot afford parking there on a regular basis already.

The point is to reduce traffic and raise revenue.

To phrase it more succinctly: it's a stupid idea because a 12 year old teenager will be able to train these models on their phone in a few years. This is fundamentally different from enriching Uranium.

Incentives in this structure go both ways though, ideally keeping everything in symbiotic balance. Companies that alienate their users tend to not do well shortly after.

Wild guess: somebody came up with a business plan to monetize all that data for future LLM usage.

"Why would even a ruthless money-over-everything Wall Street investor want to gamble on that?" I think you are missing an even larger point here. What is Reddit without its communities and users? At the end of the day, if people a

That's the exact reason why I chose Dvorak over Colemak a decade or so ago. Sad to see that this hasn't been fixed yet.
