Honestly Daylight Saving Time is so emberassing. My colleagues on one project are mostly in countries that don't deal with it and I have to shamefully be like "Yeah my whole country is gaslighting us about what time it is so now the calendar shifted our usual meeting by an hour"

No, I don't think this had anything to do with startup equity. This advice has cropped up in every industry. I think the job hopping trend is a direct response to growing inequality and companies taking employees for granted. Stagnant wages, erosion of benefits, pushing for longer work hours. The social contract with work is broken. So people are looking out for themselves.

After about 8 terminal tabs some 3 shells deep we now have new account announce working in the social inbox. With this we can have better discoverability where new accounts can opt into being announced so that others can find them.

i usually like to say the original sin of the internet was putting trust into companies.. but i think even more precisely it is that we decided that corporate search engines were fine .. search is a foundation of the internet and until we have credible foss alternatives we will forever have a castle built on sand..

it is pretty interesting that while there have been attempts at foss search engines , none of them can compete with a corporate search engine ,, even after decades!

❌ "The middle-class is shrinking."

✔️ "The working-class is getting poorer, while the ownership-class is getting richer."

Lower, middle, and upper class definitions simply divide the working-class into income levels, focusing on how much they make rather than how they make it.

This does nothing but divide workers and distract from the real issues of how they're exploited. There are two classes that really matter: the working-class and ownership-class.

Solidarity to ALL the workers!

In 2024, $.32 gets you a Cortex M0, 4kB RAM, 16kB flash and a built-in 24MHz oscillator. All in a package that's terrifyingly close to being accidentally swallowable.

Sushi breakfast to get my code on. Gotta release a WIP branch to staging and do some testing, then continue adding some data discoverability tooling to my DB, then work on the spec text for this FEP which adds p2p linking to ActivityPub. And just two meetings to interrupt it.

Leter gonna pick up a pal from work and go thrifting.

@talon @chockenberry @simon @jscholes @NoahCarver @Iconfactory I’m not sure about deaf blind, that might be harder yeah. But for understanding data like this with sound, it’s actually not that hard. I don’t know if you ever looked at Apple’s graph accessibility API’s, but if you go into the battery settings with VoiceOver on, touch the battery percentage graph and then double-tap and hold and move your finger around you get an audio representation of the graph where the pitch represents the value. For Talon’s audio CPU monitor, we did something similar except using much less shrill sounding sine waves. So roughly, imagine 50% CPU usage is a middle C, 0% is an octave below and 100% is an octave above. Each core/thread had its own sound panned in stereo, so if you have a quad core processor core 1 is on the very left while core 4 would be on the right. Then for memory and disc usage the idea was the same, but the sounds were different and even lower in pitch so they could be heard even with the CPU sounds. That’s the sound theme which is set by default, which is very utilitarian, but we also had a few themes which could be used as relaxation - IE a water one where the CPU could either sound like a soft lake at 0% or a roaring waterfall at 100

@andrew_chou isn't it better for the OS to switch the theme instead? This API feels like it'd only be used for tracking

Thinking of the "trusted compute" stuff that's been getting more widespread and wondering if it'd lead to users having less agency over their devices a la Verner Vinge's Rainbows End where all computing has to be approved by a central authority first. :P

A big caveat is the data should be queryable. I feel like GraphQL made some progress back in the day but there wasn't enough standardizing on UIs and reusing schemas. It ended up just being used by servers and single app specific UIs.
