the corners are banked, but they’re too sharp so you need to tilt even more to get through comfortably at high speed.

so jump head first

also if i literally got paid for by appearance

tl;dr: it uses stripe

the platform is still too small for it to be a problem.

it’s called “rambling”.

also, it’s about perspective.

the reasoning given by the voyager dev is that it’s trivial to impersonate people using display names. which… yeah, it is. if account migration was smoother it wouldn’t really be a problem, but considering the audience you’d really think deadnaming was a known issue.

then again people my age were told to never use names online that can be traced back to us, maybe they assumed that would hold.

yeah it’s almost like there as already a system for this in place

it’s buzzword speak for “connect chatgpt to your editor, tell it what you want, and blindly accept the answer”

some clients don’t support display names so i’m not surprised people don’t know :( voyager for example hasn’t got that functionality

some clients don’t show display names. the web client shows them, but some mobile ones like voyager don’t.

now calculate how much power this meme took to make. or how much power all the page views take.

the easiest reference for this stuff is how much more efficient a thing is compared to an old-fashioned lightbulb. The standard lightbulb is 50W, which means leaving it on for an hour consumes 50Wh. so with that amount of energy, you could do 15 chatgpt prompts. or 150 regular searches. or run your (1500W) vacuum cleaner for two minutes. or rev your car for 1.8 seconds, assuming your engine is around 130bhp.

yeah i think that’s about the same time. there are so many versions at the same time that it gets confusing

random searches. they stop the trains in the middle of nowhere and armed police walk through to check the passport of anyone they deem suspicious.

at least that’s how they did it in germany. in denmark the old mustachioed conductor did it with the ticket check as the train was in motion. much smoother

I’m no accountant but surely if they were being profitable it would sound better to say something like “We’ve remained profitable throughout and our earnings per quarter are on par if not greater than before.”?

no, because profitability isn’t the key figure they are interested in. it’s growth. i recently got fired because of disappointing growth; e.g. the increase in profitability was not as large as they expected. which means they still made more money than last year.

this is why expenditures get relegated to “externality” status; because otherwise projections would make it look like a company can not grow infinitely large, and surely that’s not true

platypodes nuts

they just want all text

as i read it it wasn’t immune, it just took longer.

considering that “web 2.0” is widely accepted to be “the social web”, where the focus was on user contribution and interoperability… no.

i mean, the web server in question is the Go standard library. if there is a vuln in there we have bigger problems, considering it’s also used by the docker binary.
