    Should I do a podcast reacting to Dark Angel, a 2000 show set in 2019 post-apocalyptic Seattle in deep recession where gov’t corruption has gone wild but an independent video journalist & genetically engineered bike messenger team up to expose bad actors? (Everyone uses pagers)

    Know what’s going to be popular this week? A7Siii. Know what should be popular this week?

    Lighting, and to the same extent, Grip: a 15 year old used C-stand will still sell for almost the same price as a brand new one. They don’t change. They work. And they deliver value.

    I was pretty fed up with the behavior of 'df', so I wrote my own diskfree tool.

    It's called 'duf', it's written in #golang, and you can get it here: https://github.com/muesli/duf

    On ArchLinux, you can simply install 'duf' from the AUR.

    Indeed. Especially as they've taken such steps to limit third party ad tracking, it seems that they're still doing fraud-preventing device fingerprinting... which smells fishy and inconsistent.

    possibly we should stop saying “the algorithm” and start saying “the way people programmed the app”

    Code reuse reminds me of trade. When we reuse other people’s code, that frees up our time to focus on our own. We can then make our own available for reuse, which completes the cycle. Specialization, division of labor, comparative advantage, raising everyone’s quality of life.

    How far can we take the analogy? Which deeper economic principles based on trade might apply to code reuse, package managers, etc? I doubt it’s an original idea, but it’s hard to Google.

    This seems highly suspect and monopolistic.

    I don't use @AppleMusic and yet it gets to pop up this privacy alert telling me that the number of calls I make will be used to create a trust score for my device.

    Do other music providers like @Spotify get to do this?

    In 1982, the Commodore64 cost an inflation-adjusted $1,600 - and had 64KB of RAM.

    A compact disc outputs 176KB. Per second.

    The CD is basically a temporal aberration and should not have existed at all.

    For me it’s a few things.

    Screenshots are easier to take and archive.

    Files are easier to transfer between devices.

    iMessage means I don’t need to check my phone.

    Screen recordings are MUCH easier to do.

    I had tweeted in 2019 about @Twitter cropping #womeninAI headless while cropping men correcting. When I raised this, many men in field accused me of making up a non-existent issue just to gain attention. Sadly #AI #bias is not yet fixed.
