Yes! Oh my, I’m silly; that was precisely my point and I managed to mess it up 🙃

Thank you for the correction!

As others have also mentioned, Minoxidil can be effective at slowing or stopping balding, with daily application, though it isn’t immediate (may take a couple of weeks to start showing results). It can vary a lot from person to person, so give it a shot for a couple of months before deciding whether to commit or not.

While the issue of the inter-server protocol being overly chatty is very much real, putting the burden on the users isn’t a good solution.

The focus should instead be on improving the protocol itself and its implementation with better algorithms, batching, etc. I’m not super knowledgeable about the inner workings, but I feel like there’s still some relatively “low hanging fruits” in the protocol design (are activities properly batched? are they sent as linear broadcasts to all federated instances? could we use some alternative broadcast distribution, like binomial? etc) and implementation (is the data model leading to some expensive operations? are the SQL queries well written? could we speed them up some other way?).

I say this as someone who’s been running an instance for many years now, and can tell you for sure it has been a rather bumpy ride, as a small server. Running a good and fast server with lots connections is not cheap; not as much as it should, at least imo.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compose_key

It’s a key that makes the next 2 or more keystrokes be dead key inserts that combineinto some character otherwise impossible to type.

In my case, my keyboard had a ≣ Menu key which I never used, so I remapped it to Compose.

You’re correct, but that’s like saying along the lines of manufacturing a car is just bolting and soldering a bunch of stuff. It’s technically true to some degree, but it’s very disingenuous to make such a statement without being ironic. If you’re making these claims, you’re either incompetent or acting in bad faith.

I think there is a lot wrong with LLMs and how the public at large uses them, and even more so with how companies are developing and promoting them. But to spread misinformation and polute an already overcrowded space with junk is irresponsible at best.

I’ve been getting into the habit of also using em/en dashes on the computer through the Compose key. Very convenient for typing arrows, inequality and other math signs, etc. I don’t use it for ellipsis because they’re not visually clearer nor shorter to type.

That is not really true. Yes, there are jump instructions being executed when you run interference on a model, but they are in no way related to the model itself. There’s no translation of weights to jumps in transformers and the underlying attention mechanisms.

I suggest reading https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformer_(deep_learning_architecture)

This. And to add to what other commenters have said, by using Bitwarden and paying for their Premium plan (very cheap, just $10/year), even if you don’t use all their features, you’re supporting a good project. It’s critical infrastructure, I think the price is more than fair.
Either way, you should always make periodic backups from any cloud service you use, encrypted of course.

Subscrevo. Estes projetos são importantes para mostrar o descontentamento com a evolução da Mozilla, e sem dúvida que um pacote completo que trata de tudo é mais cómodo que andar com scripts, especialmente para pessoas com menor domínio da tecnologia.

Agora, não acho bem as pessoas que incentivam a que se “abandone” o Firefox em prol do LibreWolf ou outras variantes de natureza semelhante. Não é sustentável. Os responsáveis do LibreWolf não desenvolvem nada em comparação com os esforços da Mozilla e contribuidores do Firefox. Se o Firefox desaparecer, o LibreWolf irá atrás.

Projetos como o Servo ou Ladybird são efetivamente mais interessantes nesse sentido, e espero que consigam ter sucesso no futuro. Mas, para mim, o ideal era que se conseguisse de alguma forma reavivar o desenvolvimento do Firefox, desligando-o da Mozilla (de forma sustentável, claro) ou “corrigindo” a Mozilla em si (não sei bem como).

Enfim, para ser realista, a supremacia do Chrome não vai a lado nenhum enquanto a Google tiver o tamanho e presença que tem, não nos iludamos. Chegaram a onde chegaram de uma forma muito clara: usaram a sua posição de líder em pesquisa, e-mail, vídeos, SO móvel, etc, para descolarem. O mesmo acontece com o Safari e Edge, apesar de em escalas completamente diferentes.

Apesar disso, acho importante continuar a lutar por mais e melhores alternativas. Ser derrotista também não leva a lado nenhum.

uma espécie de nacionalismo informático.

Sem dúvida. Mas ao mesmo tempo, a Europa tem a capacidade de poder fomentar uma visão bastante consensual, não deixando de ter como base uma malha de culturas diferentes, bastante rica.

Agora, como já outros disseram, tudo depende de como o software for desenvolvido. Código aberto em primeiro lugar.
Países da UE para os centros de dados? Sim, principalmente devido às leis mais pró-utilizador.

Excelente site :)

Foi aí que descobri a Scaleway, que já usei para várias coisas da instância (atualmente apenas uso para o envio de emails “transacionais”, e.g. confirmação de registo).

Not to the point of crying, but I’ve got really shaken by the deaths of strangers and public figures before. In general, any death moves me, it’s a very natural and human reaction. Unfortunately, some farther ones or those that happen often enough to get me numb don’t strike me as much.

An example of a fairly recent death that shook me and large amount of people too, was the death of Rick May, an immensely talented actor, drama teacher and more, that voiced the character “Soldier” in Team Fortress 2. His iconic and charismatic performance for that role is just indescribable, and a significant part of what made the character, and by extension the game, so good. His loss was so big that Valve added an in-game memorial statue, so that players could pay their respects. The fan community really grieved together. He passed away due to Covid-19 complications in 2020 at 79 years of age.

Very useful, even for someone who has been using Linux for many years. Sometimes you just forget or need that tool you rarely use. tldr can be much handier than parsing a man page when you’re in a pinch.

I use the tealdeer implementation, but any is fine really.

Never knew about prelockd, seems like a pretty neat and useful idea, thanks!

I’m either being very dense right now, or I don’t have that o.I How is it called, or where is it located next to?

Wait what? Was there ever an option to open a private tab as a normal tab?? 🤔 I’d love to have that, but thought it would never get added. What version were you on before (and in which one are you now)?

Finalmente!

I still don’t think it’s there, but development hss been fast, so a lot has changed and improved in the last couple of months.

lol era! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Usenet_newsreaders
