Cheers to everyone else out there struggling to upgrade from “you guys” to more inclusive language—it’s always encouraging to hear someone stop mid-sentence and self correct ❤️

Curious, what do people use to measure engagements on their personal site/blog nowadays?
Google Analytics/Webmention/other stuffs? Or do you not track at all?
I started switching everything over to Fathom analytics: https://usefathom.com/ref/RQMO0T -

These sexually explicit YouTube bot comments are so out of control that it makes one want to shut off comments or not even comment on anyone's video. It's SO BAD right now.
They're all the same message too, I thought Google was good at detecting spam. -
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.

Let me reiterate that this was indoors. In a well-sealed house. Now imagine the air outside.
thing I learned... a well-sealed house isn’t actually well sealed if you’re forcing air from inside to outside. I woulda had a better day or two if I had not run the AC as much and just let the inside air sit still. -
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.

I wouldn't have survived college without those cheap burnable CD-ROMs. You'd buy 10 packs of Zip drives in bulk and every single one on the pack would fail.
I owned a zip drive for a hot second. CDRWs ended up being far cheaper and better. -

You've got to be kidding me. Deleting @AppleMusic didn't solve the problem! WTF! Is there no way to NOT be profiled?
Hey @tim_cook, I thought "iPhone IS privacy". What is this?!
#iOS14
whoa whoa whoa. This doesn’t seem right.
although it does seem like they’re probably doing this in the most privacy-preserving way possible? Still monopolistic unless they expose that as an API to other apps.
but still that’s quite some fingerprinting going on wow -
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.
In the grand scheme of things, the CD barely did exist at all -

@aaronpk great stream today - are you going to do an install video for that rasPi Hyperdeck clone - sounds amazing. Cheers.
Thanks! I probably should, but it was surprisingly straightforward so it'd be a short video!
