This is sadly nothing new. The militarization of domestic law enforcement agencies since the 1980s has only made it worse.

I have found myself deep in the Nix and nixOS ecosystem myself.

AI may have its uses, but corporations and big tech have shattered our trust in them to "do the right thing".

Yet another shattering of whatever trust they have.

Maybe best to avoid NVDA if using Linux, entirely.

My next build is going to be AMD GPU and CPU with nixOS. I heard GPU support for Linux is better with AMD cards, but honestly haven’t delved into it whether it holds any truth or not.

I just like the idea that it’s using stalwart as the collaboration server (mail/calendar/contacts) [1].

I host my own personal mail server with it and have had no issues so far.

Honestly, many of my colleagues need to use this instead of the balls of mud they manage to create.

 

I saw “C4 Models” on the front page of HN. Decided to investigate further and noticed it was a recently developed diagramming paradigm.

I watched this talk by the author 4 years ago and was impressed with the ease of use and understanding. As well as the ability to develop your own notation.

I am building another new project soon and will use this modeling system to design the high level overview.

Has anybody tried using this recently? Did other devs or stakeholders easily understand what you were trying to build given these diagrams?

Wow you actually get logs from the other devs? I get fucking screenshots of abbreviated stack traces. Often not even the relevant portion of the stack trace or log.

Long time ago, it was probably due to overcrowding. Very easy to get shit quality of service once it hits a certain time of day.

But with advances in wireless technology (backhaul, 5Ghz, MIMO, …) I think that’s no longer the case.

Probably right for most big box stores or multibillion dollar businesses. But you would be surprised how thin the margins are for local grocery stores. That 3-5% in processing could be used to compete or undercut big box competitors that price in the credit/debit card fee.

I think with the right approach (small businesses first) it could see high adoption. Plus it would make it slightly more attractive in setting up shop in places that wouldn’t otherwise get any attention (ie, food deserts)

In consulting, that’s called “after work”. Got to pump those billables

Honestly though, unless it’s a feature that is completely outside the domain of the application. If you have to re-write your entire app then your app was probably dog shit to begin with

First time user of firefish. Kind of like the UI. “Global” section is kind of chaotic. Guess that’s just the fediverse for ya

I quickly looked through the #news tag, not seeing this. I guess those bots were active at the time?

 

Would be cool if we can upload short videos to a peertube instance and embed them into posts rather than relying on reddit, YT, or Vimeo.

I use the browser versions of lemmy and it’s painful to see some posts link to these sites.
