Is this significantly different from the QBitTorrent search engine?

Maybe I just don’t think “country” == “government”, and I try to be careful with my phrasing so as not to make blanket pejorative statements about people.

India is pretty much a piece of shit country

All while being racist as hell

Cognitive dissonance much?

This makes me so nervous about how AI is going to influence children and adolescents of the coming generations. From iPad kids to AI teens. They’ll be at a huge risk of dissociation from reality.

Agreed.

And sometimes code is not the right medium for communicating domain knowledge. For example, if you are writing code the does some geometric calculations, with lot of trigonometry, etc. Even with clear variable names, it can be hard to decipher without a generous comment or splitting it up into functions with verbose names. Sometimes you really just want a picture of what’s happening, in SVG format, embedded into the function documentation HTML.

What are you talking about? BlueSky has absolutely nothing to do with Facebook. It’s a different company using the open AT Protocol.

Technically it’s an open protocol. Whether or not any other implementations will surface remains to be seen.

My point wasn’t so much that I think RED is shady but that exposing my IP seems like an unnecessary requirement to join. Why can I not have my membership tracked via an anonymous account? If they are concerned about account harvesting or something, then the interview already seems like a good enough measure, accompanied by seed ratio minimums.

There are plenty of good resources online. Here are some topics you probably wouldn’t see in an intro algos course (which I’ve actually used in my career). And I highly recommend finding the motivation for each of these in application rather than just learning them abstractly.

• bloom filter
• btree
• b+ tree
• consensus algos (PAXOS, RAFT, VSR, etc)
• error correction codes (Hamming, Reed Solomon, etc)
• garbage collection (mark+sweep, generational, etc)
• generational arena allocator
• lease (i.e. distributed lock)
• log-structured merge trees
• min-cost + max-flow
• request caching and coalescing
• reservoir sampling
• spatial partition (BVH, kd-tree, etc)
• trie
• write-ahead log

Don’t most YouTubers make more money with their own sponsorships than from YT ads? Can we start the mass migration to PeerTube already?

It’s not harmless. It’s linked to mental illness and increased stress. People need to stop spreading this myth.

EDIT: I know that people are down voting because weed is incredibly popular and rarely does harm, but that doesn’t mean you should propagate the myth that it’s harmless. Your personal experience should not speak for everyone.

Weed can easily cause intense anxiety and paranoia if the user takes more than they can handle. This is just as true for someone who is trying it for the first time as it is for someone with a long history of use.

If you have ever had panic attacks or heart palpitations, the combined increase in heart rate and anxiety may trigger a panic attack. It’s also habit-forming enough that people who’ve had panic attacks will keep using it despite knowing they are risking a really stressful experience.

I love that the EU is cracking down on tech, but I also wish the US government could get in on that awesome rake.

I’m not in the market, but I’ve actually had similar thoughts of building a project on top of NixOS that’s focused on self-hosting for homes and small businesses. I recently deployed my own router/server on a BeeLink mini PC and instead of using something like OpenWRT, I used NixOS, systemd-networkd, nftables, etc.

DM me if you want to discuss more. I think the idea has potential and I might be interested in helping if you can get the business model right (even if it just ends up being some FOSS thing).

Fair, but it’s also limited to the very top of the bell curve at any point in time.

The fastest marathon time for men is 2 hours 1 minute and for women it is 2 hours 14 minutes.

It’s an unacceptable leap in logic to infer (from that statement) anything about populations of men and women. You’ve picked only a single sample from each population and chosen that highly biased representative.

Stop using Brave, people.

Rate-limiting could also be applied at the federation level, but I’m less sure of what the implementation would look like. Requiring filters on a per-account basis might be resource intensive.

Why resort to an expensive decentralized mechanism when we already have a client-server model? We can just implement rate-limiting on the server.

Are sockets not files?
