I think the equivalent is actually Amazon’s main website sharing to friends your Audible purchases in the hopes it can get you to join Audible

The layer of disassociation is present w/ humans speaking different languages too though, right? My point is that once we can understand each other, we are all building on what already exists

This was actually the least-biased coverage of the day:

Curious to hear more opinions. I think there are technical nuances that I don’t quite understand based on reading this comment (& subsequent replies)

they are appropriating what already existed and saying it in another way.

Isn’t this humanity in a nutshell? Standing on the shoulders of Giants, etc.

I quit my job to start the year and I’m currently doing a sabbatical year. I’m apathetic about the idea of eventually honing in on a specialty to learn when I re-enter the workforce because I’m unsure how sustainable the skills I learn will be in demand for.

The only thing I can think of is expanding my base level understanding of LLMs. My bet is that they will become the foundation with which future projects are launched in the same way that elementary school is the foundation for basic reading/writing/comprehension skills.

Yeah I like it over Mastodon as well. The UI/UX feels more modern. The only downside is that the majority of the Twitter-alternative fediverse is on Mastodon, so I have to run 90% of accounts through ‘search’ to follow them.

The article does touch on some of the main instance’s issues towards the bottom too I just found out.

I’ve used it for a few months. I enjoy the idea of updating my progress after each reading session, so that hypothetically, I can see how fast I read.

If nothing else, the article is great for a breakdown of the features of Firefish. I’ve been a user for 2-3 months and didn’t know a lot of the info covered.

On a related note, I was on firefish.social but it was very buggy for me after a while. Thought about throwing in the towel but eventually realized that it was instance specific.

I have since migrated to calckey.world (Calckey -> Firefish instance that didn’t change its name) and the experience has been buttery smooth.

Very familiar UI over there. Creating an acct now

Convenience is the main issue. AFAIK, as long as you secure your device, it’ll do the job

The scratches during the review period makes me nervous. I walk into walls all the time with my watch so that’s a no go.

I’ll wait and see if it’s more widespread and if there’s any xmas discounts before I potentially pull the trigger

I agree with you and was also thinking that maybe waiting X days/weeks before publishing would be the solution.

What I don’t like about the article is that the phrasing ‘paying off’ can apply to making investors money OR having worthwhile use cases. AI has created plenty of use cases from language learning to code correction to companionship to brainstorming, etc.

It seems ironic that a consumer-facing website is framing things from a skeptical “But is it making rich people richer?” perspective

Skimmed as well and must’ve skipped the paragraph that had that sentence 😅

If the Circuit Attorney says that he’s on a list where he can’t be trusted to bring cases to court, then why is he still prosecuting criminals if the case will fall apart in court?

I don’t understand why he still allowed to operate as a detective.

Positive psychological impact of sunlight is my guess

lmao

To me, it feels like the final frontier for phones before a pivot to virtual/augmented reality becomes more tangible.

Got rid of my GV # after ~10 years w/ it so that I could use RCS. Not a vast difference tbh but feels a lot more modern
