Weird is derivative of Wyrd. So yeah, it’s a fate.

There is nothing pacifist with letting russians genocide Ukrainians freely. We already saw what happens when USA stops military aid, russia goes on offensive emboldened by such actions.

Fuck Ben & Jerry. They were bankrolling campaign against supply of military equipment to Ukraine.

I’m 10+ year software engineer and I completely agree. Writing the text of the program is the most boring part, it being automated is great.

Huh, I’m using Voyager on Android, am I missing anything useful?

You need support from parliament members to run for presidency. That’s political suicide.

I probably was in a wildly different circles. Most people I knew didn’t want to start em due to size and pace. Single digits watched both.

You can sub to see. With algorithm, you’ll see unsubbed content above subbed.

Algorithm isn’t that. It’s not just a block.

I don’t think anyone here did create anything like that that isn’t some simple formula that accounts for number of likes, date & number of comments, converts that to a single number and sort by that. Plus, there is a way to sort differently in many ways.

Algorithm will not completely prevent you from being in the feed. But your visibility drops thousandfold. Posts that previously would get thousands of likes get 20 views.

Same way they create popular political figures and newsfeeds out of nowhere. Just ramp visibility in the algorithm to the target groups.

Algorithm is a blackbox that is unpredictable to the end user by design. The idea is that algorithm learns what you like to read, what are you interacting with, so it feeds you the content to keep you engaged to the max. The parameters by which you see some post but not the other are not decided by some clear sorting rule. Each user would have lots of hidden values which impact the sort order.

While being generally useful (despite the hate, people love to be engaged with content they like to see), people also don’t notice that they are being fed/denied some content because they are used to their feed being a black box.

Did you really need to compare it to animes with the slowest pace possible?

Is it really a thing? I don’t mean defederation, do threadiverse instances use custom algorithms to provide content to users custom-tailored to them?

Idk about the elections, but as a Ukrainian I’ve seen the stark difference in about a half a year since he bought twitter.

He manually switched off visibility for NAFO. Like as if they became shadowbanned, invisible to the “for you” feed.

He made it so big Ukrainian accounts are mostly visible to Ukrainians only. This was enough not to make them leave the platform but silenced their voices to the outside world.

It’s quite obvious we were just the testing grounds, USA elections were the real deal.

Good riddance.

Eh, not really. I mean unless episode sucks. But I’m mostly having issue with unfinished stories rather than episodes being bad.

Like I’ve watched multiple 20-40+ episode titles that about ran to sorta culmination point… so I’ll have to wait like 3-5 more years to see how they end.

I like when a season actually has a finished story. Even if the next season would use the same characters.

I’ve had long break (I mean like 7+ yrs) from watching animes and recently started watching new stuff in my free time.

Honestly it’s not bad, but the hell with all of them having such a slow pace. Literally none of them have a finished story, all in long ongoing phase with plans to run for ages.

What does it have to do with lisp?

Sure it’s not like it has no uses, but it’s something languages have built-in as syntax sugar or operators, and you rarely need to built your own macro for anything.

The most interesting part about Lisp is homoiconicity:

(+ 1 1 2) is literally a list with symbol “+” and 3 numbers.

Which allows to build the most powerful macro possible, manipulating code (with data as a tree-like structures) and changing it into whatever else at compile time.

Now if only there was any good use for macros, this would be the best language 🙃

Where is this message? Who will use the force on who?

Defending your own country from drones that could’ve carried lots of explosives isn’t an answer, it is a responsibility of the country. Bare minimum.

Besides, NATO is not just Poland. What is the response of the Alliance to russian drones invading Poland?

They are being pushed around though. 8 drones entered the Polish airspace at the same time. This is an act of aggression against NATO.

NATO is being tested. The response is nothingburger.
