Dorsey's response has to be the funniest; showing folks countervailing views in their feeds via sentiment analysis is a hysterically funny move, equivalent to trying to put out a fire by spraying it with gasoline. I can't wait to

I'm sure it does. I was not replying to Mastodon-the-platform, I was commenting on the cognitive bias present in the OP. Mastodon may well be the cat's pajamas, but not for the reasons given; namely, that centralized social media

What I find amusing about all these "solutions" to "online outrage" is that they are invariably made by comfortable centrists, with a smattering of libertarians. I can say this with some authority as both of these terms

Ok, but can it run Ubuntu 18.0x? Could someone who knows their chipsets please hazard a guess?

I really appreciate that an honest answer to this question gets instantly hammered with -4 points and dropping. Guess what? This space isn't friendly either, and it itself will erase all evidence of that. Just like most companies.

Everything else is just causistry and tactics, and must be tailored bespoke.

There isn't one, at least not straightforwardly. There's a meta-hack, of sorts, however, that is : "You don't have to be this way, and you don't have to do what others expect of you. You can change, and you don&#x2

'The powers that be'. Even the abbreviations we use these days are different. :) Younger people don't understand me when I say 'IANAL' or even 'IIRC', which is a shame, IMHO. Hot grits and Natalie Portman

The preëminence of the Unix Way did not arise in a vacuum. It arose by Unix winning out, again and again, against better-funded, more 'modern' solutions, each of which has aged a lot less well than Unix itself. Simplicity is a pos

This is a fantastic sample of the sort of romantic philosophizing that animates the technosphere. It elides from some reasonable, nineteenth-century claims about atheism and materialsm to full-on AI worship without a moment's hesitatio

Yes, that's why I bought it! But it's still proof-of-work-based. The future is proof-of-state. I know folks are trying to retro PoS into Ethereum, but I'll believe it when I see it. Many others are already there. I'd say

Hmmm good points. I'll have to think about that one a bit more. Cardano and Monero are both friends I would go to the wall for, though :)

A lot of the chatter in this post is about the underlying value of Bitcoin (and blockchain currency generally) as an asset class. I keep telling folks: yes, it absolutely does have value apart from sentiment; holding a blockchain currency g

"Go, Visual Basic, Perl - all these are great, commonly used languages - are they dead or dying too? There’s no reason to think so." Go is fine but yeah those other two are, uh, well.

Good lord. This comment of mine is probably going to get deprecated down to -1 and beyond, but it needs saying anyway: We already have a perfectly good technology for combatting poverty. It's called socialism. How many people read this
