I don't see it the same way. I see it as akin to building a machine which can do the cooking for you. There is a lot of experimentation in terms of how you can construct that machi…

at this point, what's the advantage of this setup vs something like hermes?

No obviously we can just require that drug dealers make sure they distribute cocaine in packets that only open for adults.

I'm genuinely considering whether the people replying to you are bots now.

"everything the author mentions" I wouldn't say this is totally accurate. There are no swimmable lakes in the central part of the city for example. Certainly there are parks that h…

I suppose because, inflation is down, and additional interest rate hikes are looking less likely.

I would love it if I could disable bluetooth on the TV. I have never connected it to any network and its still blaring "HELLO SOMEONE NEARBY HAS AN LG TV" to the entire neighbourho…

No blockchains here. Nostr is just a standard signed message format being relayed by simple store and forward relay servers.

Sadly many of those countries are now in the EU which will force them to adopt similar legislation

seamlessly jumping from local to remote sessions is something ive been hoping for in zellij for quite a while so if herdr supports this it could be interesting. Until I try it, tho…

They are talking about mandatory on-device scanning. E2E doesn't solve this.

I'm not certain that local police forces are always consulting the NSA or Palantir to find out who is behind a particular account. I would guess that the vast majority of arrests f…

The biggest angle for me is censorship. You associate your online identity with your legal identity, there is no longer any recourse if you are banned from a platform. You could ea…

Doesn't _have_ to be except not enough voters can tell the difference which is exactly the goal.

You could implement it this way: - the first time you select a directory it must be empty - you can drag files in there afterwards - the directory gets whitelisted for future use P…

Considering the Trump administration's policy on Isreal / Palestine / Iran seems to be a direct follow-on from the previous administration, I'm not so sure about that assertion.

In a two party system, do you vote for the party that promises small government and never delivers, or the party that promises bigger government and does delive?

I can't find a Pi Zero 2 W for sale anywhere that will deliver to me

Free speech doesn't mean that we don't desire filters. Go check your gmail spam folder. Twitter would look identical to this with filters at all. What we really want is: * transpar…

So in future we will have "retro" streaming platforms that buffer with the spinner a random times for nostalgia and have menus full of promotional material that are impossible to n…

You're assuming a file containing a statistical model that exists on your hard drive has agency. It doesn't. You as the user have sole agency and what you use the statistic file fo…

You could say it's more akin to if we have all been writing in a assembly and suddenly we got access to compilers and high level languages. Would we all be complaining that every c…

It's hard to avoid the topic when it literally redefines what it means to create software. If I'm using it to create some piece of software, then I turn around and say "I wrote thi…

I'm someone who makes extensive used of LLMs and agents for daily research, and I 100% of the time ignore the AI summary that google gives at the top of the page. If I am performin…

I imagine something like 98% of articles also get less than 100 views. So the question is more about the articles you're reading rather than articles in general.
