doesnt france have laws to undermine cryptography? i seem to remember something in this direction

what is your point?

the app store claims data is not shared with 3rd parties, yet they use twilio to "verify phonenumbers"

how about verifing them yourself? to expensive...? so twilio does it for free for you? what the fishy fuck is going on here?

sure they do mention verifying the numbers with a third party in their terms & privacy policy, but the rest of their communication/advertising just very misleading and fishy, claiming they dont keep any data on you.

i never liked or trusted signal, especially not with marlon"no federation for u"spike and not with auntie "i used to work for the FTC" either.

though you will need lotsa RAM for federation if you use synapse (mine keeps bogging down now after a year of mild use (could also be a bug idk, it allocates all the RAM and then nothing goes), now im waiting for the new server software dendrite to be able to migrate from synapse... allthough i wouldnt lose much if i just nuked the synapse instance)

having a job is nice and all, but when you can just do ~whatever~ instead, innovation-magic happens.

coupling clojure with python sounds like a drag, even using graal i dont think this will be easy. but janet you could bind as a dll and eat your cake while having it as just recently FFI was added. if you are interested, i can probably help a little as im working on an integrated (game)development repl myself. not sure how to classify what im working on but i think its close to your domain as i want to change my hotloop during runtime from the repl and from inside the running game. i just wrote you an email.

EDIT:

ah, just now read that you want to make this a webapp, in that case being closer to the metal isnt really helping, so nevermind ^^

> "Stop wasting your time on programming languages"

"stop trying to fasc us out of having fun while being productive!" is my reply.

there are already enough people trying to improve software quality using rusty shears, let me use my fusion powered laser cutter if i want to!

but with the uint63_t i dont quite see the point but admit it would be neat having an unsigned int that cant overflow

or about the bullet you just dodged...

if someone connected django with number theory in their head and assumed everyone else can see the connection just as spontaneously, i'd much rather leave than try to handle that arse.

if i were to bet, it'll be on a different continental plate

> "Based on the board's understanding of Rabbi Rob's work with Team Cymru, the board has not identified any conflicts of interest."

WHAT?

i was patiently reading the whole paragraph, expecting Bobby to be redeemed only for my gut instinct to be right?

what do you mean i messed up the context?

> And as the sleeping soldiers in th’alarm

> Your bedded hair like life in excrements

> Start up and stand on end.

i read that as "your hair is standing up as if made sticky with poop"... "life in excrements" here sounds like it means "covered in".

i checked out that "open chat window once someone starts typing" once out of novelty value... but it felt to stalky to keep it active, and wasnt really handy at all. sometimes ppl misclick and open the wrong window and realize later, others are reading past discussions... really not that useful as a feature

i havent released much. and the quality is questionable. but i totally get it.

me and my SO discussed this briefly, her suggestion is to only do things for yourself.

my thoughts to that: yeah, sure. but working a dayjob _and_ working the dream, who is going to cheer me on? im bad at multitasking, so after a day or two of spinning my wheels i will most likely loose all drive, because i can see that i wont make it in the near future to the finish line. Also, nobody except me cares, but do i really care? there are projects i do care about a lot, but because i care so much i havent really put any deliberate concrete planing into it as to keep anything possible. this way i pick up small projects left and right, turn them over a couple of times in my mind and then drop them. big ones i just dream about ad infinitum... i hate it but i havent found the jenesaiqua to motivate myself to do anything really. much less so if i only do it for myself.

being cheered on by family always feels like "oh wow, that is a nice cat you drew" "its a horse" "oh yeah now i see it...(they never did)": empty encouraging words. blind eyes appreciating art. deaf ears praising the timbre of an instrument. v_v

at least when i cook a meal i can eat it and experience whether or not it tastes good. but with software? what am i supposed to make that will make my life a bit better: an automatic doomscroller? scoffs

I wish you well, lurkars, may your projects gain the recognition they deserve

why the plural? it has been this one singular dude for quite some time XD and that contradicts (i mean, not contradict, but like... who are you talking about?) your "not known for being long-term thinkers". i dont think we know what putin is scheming

i admit that my what-if-s are not helpful, but it doesnt look to me like he is concerned of global warming at all. and this article here makes me think that might be no coincidence.

> Ford’s 1941 bioplastic Model T was made of hemp, flax, wheat, and spruce pulp, which made the car lighter than fiberglass and ten times tougher than steel, wrote the New York Times on February 2, 1941. The car ran on ethanol made from hemp or other agricultural waste. Ford’s experimental model was deemed a step toward the realization of his dream to “grow automobiles from soil,” wrote Popular Mechanics in their December 1941 issue and reduce greenhouse gases—already known to occur by then.

well. what if the plan to warm the arctic was never binned?

there is data that shows a correlation between modern wars and CO2 emissions.

What if russias big game is actually to change the climate enough to make siberia hospitable?

but perhaps that is not enough. perhaps the scope needs to include production of wares: i dont just want inferior wares to not be advertised, but rather not even made. time, effort and resources wasted on trash products are a shame we are going to feel painfuly in the coming decades if humanity ever wakes up from the capitalist dream

sure they are creating a space without taking away volume for other people to build there, but nobody will care about the other things because a proper map of the internet is not concerned with what is there, but what a given user spends their attention on.
