@lucid00.com There's still pockets of folks working on standards outside of the NFT/Corpo co-opting of the idea. https://omigroup.org/
Lots of neat stuff happening in the Godot and Blender space for example.
The appeal of machine learning to me is how clean the actual structure of models can be once you split it up in the right layers.
A lot of "application" code is a tangled web of dependencies and small independent or coupled bits of state that you need to coordinate in bizarre ways to account for the difficulty of state management in distributed systems.
ML on the other hand needs maths knowledge but the blocks fit together in a nice clean linear way of input to output.

I'm seeing a lot of folks making the same suggestion, and now I'll say it too:
Use Amazon like a catalog you browse.
Find a thing you want.
Go to the manufacturer's site (NOT their Amazon "store!").
Buy it there. Often you'll find coupons or discount codes NOT present on Amazon.
[Edit: I live in the so-called UnitedStates. You may not. Even if you do, your experience may differ from mine. Use what you can/choose to from the suggestion and ignore the rest. This is about doing our best, to the best of our ability, under what are becoming uncertain and possibly extraordinary circumstances.]
In manual memory management, the garbage collects YOU.
Found this #techno banger via tiktok. Very cyber.

@Alice I love seeing a good spreadsheet NGL.
Looks like the emails used to register for fediforum have either been leaked or scraped or something because I've been getting spam on the one I created just for the event. 😿
Hard to find time to become transhuman while I gotta do my tasks. Luckily humans on average have a decent lifespan to get stuff done in.
@tinker Kinda like how mRNA vaccines can be used to get the body to attack arbitrary cells by provoking the immune system

Don't forget to eat your clocks this weekend. Completing the Sisyphusian cycle of how time consumes us.
Being a mortal is kinda frustrating at time.
A/B testing with zero user consent or disclosure is messed up. It's gross how tech people treat users like fodder with little care for their agency.
Code refactor? I hardy know her!
@cblgh Using it for the Save app from OpenArchive https://github.com/OpenArchive/save-dweb-backend
Combined it with Iroh to do private blob exchange
Updating my code to the latest version of #veilid
Hopefully the route instability stuff will be fixed now!

it's ridiculous how it's now normal that computers are adversarial to their owners and using a computer now means to be working around constantly hostility of software designed specifically to not help you, and this is accepted enough that for young people that's their whole idea of what a computer is, a sort of scammy robot always trying to pull one over you

Fascinating practical networking research that exposes the gap between networking theory & real-world implementations. Valuable for security researchers, network engineers, and anyone building custom network protocols. https://github.com/Hawzen/hdp
