I'm wondering if he really wants to make Twitter open [1] or this entire thread and twitter-related surveys on his profile is just a justification for taking over this platform. I mean, Twitter is one of his most vital way of promoting

What I always missed when dealing with i3 is sane defaults. i3 right after installing is ugly and needs small tweaks in config to fit to my needs. Regolith is exactly what I needed: you install it and it's usable right away. Too bad it

Can you share some recommendations of where to begin? I've always wanted to try it, yet when I did it, I was kind of overwhelmed by amount of options you have (clients to choose, servers to join)

Actually, I would really want something like that to happen sometime. There was a really fun April Fool's experiment on Reddit a few years ago called Robin. Gathered bunch of people in small groups, active groups would then merge if pe

It's too late to capture mobile platforms, not only because the market is stabilized but most importantly: computing moves to the cloud, where Microsoft is already a big player. IMHO there is no point for them to do that.

I'm Firefox user, but those arguments are ridiculous for me, it almost sounds like conspiracy theory. You just keep convincing people to use software not because it's better, but because of some blurry ideological reasons. I keep

Shooting down satellites might be the same kind of threat that dropping nuclear bomb was during cold war. Technically they could do it, but potential consequences to everyone on planet are so devastating, no one would make such move. It wou

The question is: should we trust small, underfunded, hobbyist servers more than large corporations that have a money-driven reason to maintain high quality of services?

From what I see it's the kind of library for people preferring usability over good looking appearance. Of course you can make it "look like anything", but sane defaults are also important for rapid software development and th

I imagine that this is how social media platforms create "information bubbles". In terms of politics it won't work: people that agree with your political views would get more "trust". Is agreeing with your views an

The biggest issue with it is a really large binaries that have to be downloaded on page start. So it isn't necessarily suitable for use cases where speed matters. But at the same time, it's perfect for dashboards, I really like to

You are assuming that AI will magically appear in one hands only. We can prevent that, as developers we can make AI research open and provide AI tools to masses in order to keep "balance". If everyone had the same power, then it w

From my observations, people that don't act certain are not necessarily respectable among other people. I mean, I agree that saying "I don't know" is morally correct, but in practice, in real life, it's not the best

I've never encountered with "improvisional theater". How does it work? What practically is "performing without a script"? You stay on stage and say anything that comes to your mind?
