Why are ethics questions always like:
"is it ethical to steal bread to feed your starving family?"

And not:
"is it ethical to sell bread when families are starving?"

OMG what if twitter started paywalling tweets lime those online newspapers do. First three tweets are free, then you gotta pay for blue with an annoying banner all in your face

I'm legit so happy that the latest version of Node.js has support for global `fetch` and all the APIs that depend on it (like Blob, FormData, ReadableStream).

Makes implementing fancy protocol handlers and doing HTTP requests way nicer.

Tech is the funniest industry and it always will be.

It's a bunch of people who think they are creatures of pure logic, but every problem they try to solve turns out to be a human problem that is inherently illogical.

The results are endlessly hysterical.

I’d been hearing about the coal-mine protests in Germany, but this photo by Sean Gallup is the first that gave me a real sense of the titanic size of the thing and what’s being protested. Just… unreal.

That's right. I tied a badger to your desk.

@andrew_chou Yeah, also just setting it up can be a pain in the ass. I tried to self host a bunch of times before I gave up and paid etke.cc to do the setup on my own digital ocean droplet

@andrew_chou I think my main complaint with Matrix is that it starts getting super slow as the number of chats you enter and the number of people in those chats grows. Having hudreds of channels with thousands of participants means that Element takes like 20-30 seconds to load and freezes the page while it does so. :P

Probably optimizations that can be made to improve the situation, but it's not great by default.

Fluffychat is a little faster, but can still end up waiting a few seconds to load

@andrew_chou I really enjoy matrix for the bridging aspect personally. I have all my slacks/discords/signals bridge there and then I can organize things into spaces based on what's actually useful.

Defs not a perfect tool either.

Hypha mostly uses Matrix and Slack with focused channels that people opt into which has been convenient.

Open source isn't perfect, but I really appreciate having the option to contribute a fix for bugs when I run into trouble.

I can't even imagine having to rely on proprietary APIs for everything anymore. 😱

you know how when somebody says "the cloud" it actually means "other people's computers"? and how "the economy" really means "rich people's yachts"?

in a similar way, when a company's marketing department says their product is "the first of its kind" - it almost always means either:

1. "we don't know enough about this field to know that somebody created a working solution 30-50 years ago"

or

2. "our competition has already done this but we're willing to bet you don't know that"

Last year, we began an effort to get a #TFLite model running on a VIM3 NPU using Etnaviv & #OpenCL. Our goal? Getting a machine learning workload running on a fully open-source/upstream solution. Here's the latest: openfir.st/mletnv #OpenSource #TensorFlow
