Yeah, I am familiar with Chris. He is the one that developed a popular application for someone else's platform (Reddit) and was rewarded by it by getting the CEO accusing him of extortion attempts. Then, after realizing that Reddit&#x2

It definitely does for canceled/delayed flight tickets. Some years ago we had a flight that was canceled in the last minute by TAP and we missed one day from our trip. We got 600€ back from each ticket just by signing up to a website a

This is one of the many things where I have a good chunk of the backend code already written but couldn't find the time or urgency to work on an MVP. Should I make a mock system, see how many people would be willing to sign up and make

My idea is more about a system that can track and mediate support for the pro-FOSS than anything. For the pro-commercial side of the bet, showing ownership of the shares would be enough I guess.

A bit off-topic, but I really wish we had a system where we could make bets to pit public companies that develop closed source software against its FOSS alternatives. In the example here: people would bet by either buying $100 worth of Figm

ActivityPub just needs a few tweaks, none of them difficult to implement: 1. Adopt some DID method for actor resolution (to make it easy to port identities around) 2. Add a "strict mode" where documents are only accepted if proper

There is no snark. I'm just genuinely trying to warn you that you seem to be going down a rabbit-hole. You seem to be more enamored by working on your solution rather than solving your problem. For you, it might be that exercising your

Do you must have banking apps in your phone? And even if you do, do you need them so often that the apps must be installed in your daily driver?

I am not disagreeing, and I am not arguing for AI. I am just saying that the perverse incentives already exist and that in this case AI-assisted evaluation (which defers to a human when uncertain) is not going to make it any better, but it

If I were really splitting hairs, I'd say that the "rendering" (i.e, transforming the encoded data into its visual representation) can only happen in the client. But anyway, regardless of what you want to call it: this whol

By that logic, a static site generator is "Server Side Rendering".

It is not just the CPU. The camera was sub-par, the display was just okay, storage capacity is always important if you are like me and don't want to be dependent on the cloud... all those things can be improved independently, and consu

We should be able to do a lot more than that. I for one would love to have UML as the basis of for system design and architecture, have "pseudo-code repositories" that can be used as a "pattern book" and leave that as
