spixy··on Discord will soon let anyone find public server messages through Google
Not quite. It has higher friction than forums.

Most of the forums I can read when not signed in, with Discord I need to:

1) sign in to Discord

2) join to specific server

3) read and accepts all its rules, tems and conditions

4) optionally leave the server after I got all the information

spixy··on UUIDv7: Timestamps aren’t time-ordered and other oddities
So when public APIs use uuidv4 to fetch item, those uuidv4 still need to be indexed...
spixy··on Docker is weird
Also first part "Containers aren’t real" is not quite true in Windows when using (linux) containers...

Agree. Teen suicide rate correlates with Instagram marketshare and sadly nobody has a solution.
spixy··on Mistral Large 4
Yes, GDPR.
spixy··on PipePipe: NewPipe hard fork implementing SponsorBlock
Are you saying that p2p was fine in 2000s, but in 2020s with 10 times faster upload, it is suddenly not fine?

I even got 100 times faster upload than 20 years ago...

spixy··on I said no and Apple said yes
On Windows/Android I certainly have more choises than on MacOS/iOS.

I am satisfied with current set of choices on my Win 10 & Android 13.

spixy··on GPT-6 Sol and Luna
Industrialization took decade or even more, AI took just a few years. AI is a quite a shock for our economy.
spixy··on Flutter 3.47
Reminds me of Microsoft where Windows team doesn't acknowledge C#...
spixy··on I'll be stepping back from leading product for X
You cannot, can you?
spixy··on John C. Dvorak has died
quick search shows that .pyf is some Python file (interface between Python and Fortran) so it was a joke I guess
spixy··on The bottleneck might be the air in the room
Not useless.

You cannot solve a problem when you don't know you have a problem.

spixy··on Espionage Against the European Parliament
Which is difficult since smartphones are used as 2FA, and not every service has web interface, only mobile one (some banks, chats, dating, uber, etc..)
spixy··on Volkswagen started blocking GrapheneOS users
So is this problem of german (or EU) laws?
spixy··on Can we have the day off?
Maybe don't force how many days people should work. Force number of hours (32) and let people decide, how many days...
spixy··on Deno 2.8
Because I don't care about that permission system. Server will run in some container or k8s anyway.

And node / bun development is much easier because of many many npm packages.

spixy··on Eric Schmidt speech about AI booed during graduation
health - issue detection, cancer treatments, new drugs creation, etc..
spixy··on EU Parliamentary Research Service calls VPNs "a loophole that needs closing"
DPI = Deep packet inspection?

Austria is also trying to block nuclear, at least in Czechia and Slovakia.
spixy··on If America's so rich, how'd it get so sad?
Necessary stuff (houses, healthcare, education) have outpaced CPI, and generally it is becoming more expensive.

Unnecessary stuff (electronics, appliances, other tech) did not, and generally it is becoming cheaper (Planned obsolescence is another topic though...)

spixy··on Claude mixes up who said what
But there is no fixed input-to-output mapping in current popuular LLMs.
spixy··on I won't download your app. The web version is a-ok
Why do I prefer app:

- just click on the icon, no need to type to address bar or search in bookmarks list

- faster to load - no need to download JS/CSS, also my credentials are remembered so no need to login

- biometric login, no 2FA (finance apps, etc.)

- notifications and their customization (browsers only have on/off)

Why do I prefer mobile web:

- I need multiple instances (tabs) of the website

- I need to know URL of the specific page

spixy··on Oracle slashes 30k jobs
Java and VirtualBox. But both are free.

"Updated: Microsoft has done a 180. Following backlash from developers, GitHub has removed Copilot's ability to stick ads - what it calls "tips" - into any pull request that invokes its name."
spixy··on Axios compromised on NPM – Malicious versions drop remote access trojan
comparing to Node, .NET is batteries included: built-in Linq vs needing lodash external package, built-in Decimal vs decimal.js package, built-in model validation vs class-validator & class-transformer packages, built-in CSRF/XSRF protection vs csrf-csrf package, I can go on for a while...
spixy··on How to talk to anyone and why you should
"You don't know what to say. That's fine."

Well if I don't know what to say, I either don't start a conversation or I can use some opener like "How are you?" and then end the conversation (because I don't know what to say). But then what is the point?

spixy··on Israel Is Attacking Iran
I hope Iran government will finally fall, and those 30,000 dead Iranians will get at least proper burials. And that war won't spread into other countries like yours.
