It’s not too much of a wish to break up these massive fraudulent companies that serve no one except scammers and ad agencies pushing products that are broken by design. They should…

Why the hell was this flagged? It’s an excellent and funny read that finally makes an original point regarding the decay of academia and great outlook how digital media and LLMs wi…

I commuted once per month by train (meaning I took the train once per month to work in office for a week) and it was fine - most of the time wifi works and it’s reasonably comforta…

Damn and I thought I was the only one who had this genius idea…

Which means?

Strange as hell. No job is worth this - I would rather cleaning toilets in some shithole than spend all my time commuting

Interesting, which ones would be notably good in your opinion? To be fair we don’t have many fast food pizza chains in my country, it’s mostly dominos and a few small ones (with ab…

Dominos has the best checkout experience I ever experienced online. Nothing can beat it IMO, at least nothing I came across. Now they only sell (arguable mid) pizza, but when I ord…

As someone who worked a long time in service (not in America, in the anecdotally much more socially cold Germany) I was friendly and welcoming to all customers (unless I had a real…

I agree that growing equality is a problem but the farmers are far from poor. In fact they had rising profits for the last decade or so. There is some interesting data here - by th…

1. Discourse. Might be different for others but I had 0 time to manage the deployment, and upgrades took a lot of time. 2. I used https://www.linen.dev/ but I think there are other…

Fair enough it was a couple of years ago when I last evaluated it. But in our case the server would be public, so yes anyone can raid it because there are no barriers for entry. No…

Slack was the alternative. We use a service that creates a static page from all Slack conversations so this way we have a searchable index and can work around the messages disappea…

Not in my experience. We spent a nontrivial amount of time on running and maintaining our discourse instance - dev time that is very costly as a small company. Might be different a…

Speaking as someone who had to maintain a Discourse instance for two years: It’s mature and proven but still a lot of work to maintain. We went away from Discourse because it was n…

Discord is much harder to manage, has many security risks, kids raiding your server, exposes emails from every user easily, and has a very shady business model. I would never use i…

We did I this before at my company but running, maintaining and keeping the forum up to date turned into a lot of work over time - so we switched it off and went back to Slack. Sur…

Oh yea, I would love to be wrong- and if I can’t change my mind about something then I am as good as dead. I believe we will sooner solve the electricity problem with renewables th…

Everything just gets worse as you age. Sure, my dad said it too back then, but he just didn't get how the world moved on and improved. This time around though it's real, everything…

I guess you wanted to say forgettable, but just to expand on that: I recently read the book and I couldn’t even remember the character now and had to look up who was meant. Maybe t…

Working on yourself / mental health is not working on nothing - it’s probably the most important, hardest and rewarding work you can do apart from recreational work. Recreational w…

While this is pretty cool I believe generalist robots will not have a fraction of the skills an average human has , at least not within a realistically foreseeable timeframe, let’s…

How does locking away most of the knowledge, research and learning materials in the private vaults of a few publishing houses for their personal profit promote the progress of scie…

How does it protect a small artist against a large corporation profiting off their work? I don’t even have the means to start litigation, let alone see it through. It only protects…

I would argue it is a very good thing. Most “bad” things historically have been created by those clamouring for progress and justice. Like Bukowski said those who preach peace do n…
