It's possible that the company could be converted into a worker cooperative, which wouldn't be much of a stretch given their current (largely hierarchyless) company structure. There is no reason it wouldn't work.

The Rust bindings (crates gdnative for 3.0 and gdext for 4.0) also are pretty great. I've only used them a bit so far but once I got the hang of it it works well. They don't seem to teeth badly with Rust's ownership semanti

That's somewhat misleading though. It's not really a pixel in that there's much more information available than, basically, 3 integers between 0 and 255. There's 4 instruments on the telescope that collect 4 different

This feels like a large portion of the criticism. I thought this article was going to be more about how the async transformation gets in the way of a lot of transformations that the compiler could make in non-async code. The point about wr

That's an overly rosy view of what markets are capable of self-regulating in a situation where network effects are very strong and it's difficult to stop being a customer once you are.

Went to this place a few months ago taking one of the intro classes, the guy that ran the class is super nice and has a very fun teaching style. You man the forges in pairs so it's a good idea to take the class with a friend.

Presumably they'd remove the auto-update functionality before releasing signing keys and require that it be physically loaded by a user at that point.

Yeah if companies that make IoT hardware complain about the costs to keep old devices updated then they should be required to make them more user-modifiable and release source code / signing keys when they're abandoned by their ma

Google created it for novice programmers, mostly fresh out of college, that they wanted to be able to fire easily. This is a stated reason from the early discussion about design rationale, and is alluded to in the OP. There's also

It disgusts me how much duplicated effort there is with services like these. We can debate about the merits of market competition but what are they really competing over? The controlling factor is parking availability, there isn't re

Do these customers spend >$100/mo plus enough to cover other expenses? If not then it's not worth the ad spend.

Your torrent client probably uses UPnP to have your router selectively open ports to your machine for the duration of the session.

Syncthing is partly in this direction.

If the cost to help maintain the thing is something nominal (say, $20/mo, even as much as $40/mo) to maintain, then I see it as as form of mutual aid and am happy to pay it to support my friends and friends-of-friends.

Many of these devices will run Linux though, and it's becomming increasingly more common as even the low end chips are pretty capable nowadays. It could be worthwhile to build some lightweight alternative to UEFI that just handles dis

Anecdotal but my otherwise-entirely-remote (small) company just finished a 5 day week of all-day in-person meetings and did an incredible amount of planning for the next ~year that would have otherwise taken at least a month if we tried it

It's entirely plausible this is true just one layer up, where major partners at SF VCs are separarely invested in real estate investment firms without actually making that part of the VC strategy.

The term "small web" refers specifically to the old style of small handcrafted websites. But that would exclude Mastodon which is actually fairly heavy to run if you don't use a dedicated client and use the main browser app.

The impression I got from using Ruma's bot SDK library was that bot clients needed to keep around a lot of state involved in syncing the room to handle new messages properly. Which largely lines up with what you said, although maybe i

On Mastodon's interface if you see a foreign post locally on your timeline can see the poster's profile from there and follow it there. But all this is really a limitation of the web interfaces. There's extensions to assist

What would you say is your biggest frustration with Matrix's design as a protocol ? I have some of my own opinions writing bots and such but I'm curious about the perspective of a homeserver implementatiom maintainer.

The distinction is important in my opinion because it means that our technology stack isn't necessarily captured to the root by hostile interests. In these respects, a better world is possible without having to dig everything up and

This proposal only impacts "the web", which has already been going downhill for years now due to unsustainable ad-reliant business models. The internet is fine.

There are some tools to index the DHT, although it's limited. But that's more of a result of the regulatory environment and that it's hard to have decentralized search that works well. There is a spec for updatable torrents,

You still need downlinks with this. You could have some base stations run by amateurs, but that paints a target on their backs in a similar way running a Tor node already does.
