Good point. I wonder if there was a way to like auto-transcribe these voice/video comments and automatically embed them in the source code so you have like a written-out comment that people could read.

This guy embeds TicTok URLs in source comments followed by long strings of emoji

So happy you found it. Thanks so much for letting me know.

You’re assuming too much of Americans. We exist in late-stage capitalism and are desperately trying to survive.

I used to be the second guy, and then realized the system I was working in. America can fuck itself (and it is), I’m off to Europe later this year.

Steve looks forward to the hell of interfacing with shareholders, which makes me giddy. Reddit is now a money machine and no longer a community. The enshitification is well underway.

Seems related

What about a picture of a resigned person at an Apple store?

How much bread do I have?

And the Lord commanded, “Your cart ride to the infirmary shall be charged at 100 times the cost of service,” and it was so.

Those eyes are lethal

I just assumed it would be terrible because it’s a hard problem to solve generally, but like 98% of the time I don’t even realize it’s on (and it’s really easy to turn off). It’s seriously incredible.

People don’t understand that the average programmer’s EQ is in the top decile because they’re forced to work through the stages of grief several thousand times a year

Yeah, or batching changes and confirming receipt with a hash, or doing pull instead of push. From what I’ve been reading, the design seems a little janky.

Scalability does mean favoring monoliths because it costs money to scale and scaling here isn’t proportional to your instance’s users, it’s proportional to the size of the entire network.

60k users is today, not tomorrow. I’m thinking forward to 6000k users.

Extremely well put. Not the customer or product but the citizen. And try paying taxes if you’re able. This is a FUBU type of thing.

When the protocol favors monoliths, we’re right back to the Reddit problem

Interesting. Curious if you have a better understanding of ActivePub - do you happen to know if the protocol guarantees synchonicity and what mechanism guarantees it?
