Really strange Eloquence/NVDA anecdote: while reading a website, if I use ctrl-arrow down to move through paragraphs, a question is read with lowering intotation and the end, whereas if I use ctrl-up arrow to go up paragraphs, the question is read with rising intonation. The question is: Why would you want to look at those?
Very odd!
Each day, I am constantly amazed at the amount of information you send out both here, on other social platforms and via email. thank you. I obviously don't read all of it, but there's plenty that interests me so I'm very much appreciate your post. My real question though is, when do you sleep? Lol!
In all seriousness, getting a good amount of sleep is a major priority for me and, more often than not, I'm generally successful at meeting my sleep goal. With a good RSS reader, having good computer skills and using a few Leasey shortcuts when I'm on my Windows computer, maintaining the Tech-VI list and getting material posted to Mastodon and LinkedIn takes less time and effort than you might think. Also, I hardly ever post to X and Facebook unless I'm posting announcements about the BT Speak representing Blazie Technologies. For most announcements, I stick to Mastodon. There are definite benefits of having an X account but I rarely post non-work-related material to that platform. If more important things demand my attention in either my personal or professional life, then I prioritize on those things.

Permissions-Policy header where people started to notice and cite it.
lots of complex software has test or example variables, functions, and constants. Chromium has a test permission called βfrobulateβ that doesnβt do anything but trickled its way to the Permissions-Policy header where people started to notice and cite it.
Thatβs my guess.

Ach, Mensch, #friedlicheRevolution, #FallDerMauer...manchmal kann ich's nicht mehr hΓΆren...
Den Fall der Mauer habe ich verschlafen. Wir lebten damals im #TalDerAhnungslosen...
Aber auch am Tag darauf sind wir nicht nach Berlin gefahren. Unser Ziel war es doch nicht in den Westen zu kommen, sondern zu sehen ob und wie bzw. was von der Utopie verwirklicht werden kann.
Doch allzuschnell traf der Konsumrausch aus dem #Osten auf den sich entfesselnden Kapitalismus aus dem #Westen und erstickte ganz schnell die keimenden Pflanzen.
... ja, es geht schon wieder π
Da gabs Utopien? Echt?
Ich dachte die einzige Utopie waren Neckerman-Pauschalreisen und D-Mark Konsum? Von was Anderem habe ich damals nix mit bekommen, sorry.
Und ja, ich wollte als Wessi auch nicht nach Berlin zum feiern. Mir war nicht nach feiern zumute, jeder mit ein bissle Ahnung ΓΌber die Kohlsche BRD ahnte doch was da kommt.
Bin dann 2 Jahre spΓ€ter nach Ostberlin und habe mir an Silvester dann die mittlerweile eingetroffene Misere angeschaut.
Fun fact: everything Elmo has done to reinstall That Man in the Whitehouse was enabled by software developers.
Sleep well.
Great. Fascist US will be blackmailing & bullying the world.
I hope our collective countries unite and tell US to screw off.
The fact that a government would be threatening retaliation for implementing rules for a bloody social media company...time for the world to ban Twitter. It's only purpose these days is propaganda and subverting democracy.
Imagine an autocorrect that would always replace certain words by others. Imagine this come from law. And LLM with never output these words either.
Watch it fucking happen.
(if you wonder which words, use your imagination, I'm sure we can compile a list based the book burning)

Today I saw a MAGA post about "your body, my choice" assaults on women.
- Half of the comments were saying nobody ever says that.
- The other half of the comments were saying it.
This is how MAGA operates, in a nutshell, and more broadly speaking, how all fascist movements operate. They simultaneously do the horrific thing while also denying any instance of the horrific thing.
Welcome to new people joining from π!
Remember, posts are called toots here, likes are called florps, retweeting is technically a cross-account posting exploit that they can't fix because we're using it, and our version of Grok is called Garfiald.
There's no algorithm here! Literally none. There is no computer code behind Mastodon. Each http response is typed out by hand by your server admin in real time. Sometimes this means you won't see replies from other servers, but that's ok, other servers are full of losers anyway.
People here make a point of using alt text β if you can't find an image you want to post, just post a picture of your cat and describe the correct image in the alt text. Nobody will notice, or at least nobody will mind.
The first thing you should do is make a pinned toot with your pronouns, political affiliation, and favourite Linux distribution. Cisgender people are welcome on Mastodon but aren't officially supported, so some features may not work properly.
But most importantly, have fun! Users found to be not having fun will be given a written warning in the first instance and banned if the behaviour continues.

My Fediverse Advice:
* Follow more people. No, even more people than that. Basically, if you find a real person and their posts are good follow 'em
* If you get a good reply to a post boost it. If you make a good reply to a post boost it. Replies are not visible in the feed unless you do this. As long as the post is an OK start to a conversation or interesting boost it.
* Write thoughtful replies. And if you put effort into a reply boost it or probably only the people tagged will see it.
Once, I was a young girl. I was living life as we all do. But attention was missing from my life, love was missing from my life. I was alone. I had my mental issues, and my disabilities, as I do today.
But there was one thing I had wrong, which I realised while I was reading the book I started reading yesterday.
the grasping mind.
the mind that, for all intends and purposes, wants more, craves more, grasps for money, power, wealth, even love. A mind that is not content with what it has. Such a mind, I understood, suffers. Not because it exists, not because it is there, but because of not appreciating, not being contend or satisfied with what it has.
I looked for attention, love, validation. These things never came to me. I craved them, I grasped for them. Money came, material wealth came, but not these things. Why?
Because craving them, grasping for them, is what caused the suffering. The suffering in me, which went away only when I let go of grasping, of craving, of desiring. then my mind learned to appreciate what it has. I understood that I didn't have to go through what I went through, while I grasped for these things. Through all the fakeness and the hardships my own mind and suffering deluded me to believe were true. I simply had to be patient, I had to learn to let go, I had to learn to appreciate. To me, material things were never an attachment, but people were, feelings were. They were not real, they were attachments. And when learns to let go of attachment, one realises who had true feelings, who wished to be there when you suffered, who stayed through the times when you want to express that you suffer, through the times you change, and then heal. through the times when you want to be you, to live, free from all the suffering, free from all the delusions your own mind puts you through, and when you want to change, when you can no longer bare it, the universe, life, destiny, however you wish to call it, will show you the way, whether through someone, or through something. Your guide will always be there. Your guide will make you aware, without lifting a finger, to what true, unconditional love is, and what attachment is. Because it's all you, they just show you what you have missed, what you have not considered.
The moral of my story is, do not seek, do not grasp, do not crave and desire. Let go of what the ego puts you through, do not harm yourself. Through harming one's self, we are able to harm others by harming our own selves, by suffering, by losing awareness, and by living in the delusional reality our mind sets for us. We can change our mind, it's not impossible. We are not born one way, we can change, we can develop, we can learn. I have accepted my past. Even if people hate or dislike me, it is their choice to do so. I have already forgiven myself, forgiven others. I only hope that if another I know goes through the same conclusions, we'll meet one day, and talk again, already changed, already having acknowledge suffering, let go of the grasping mind we once had. I hope this messily written story serves as someone's inspiration, because it could apply to money, to relationships, to people, to everything. thank you for reading, stay safe, be understanding and compassionate, love yourselves and others, the planet and the universe.
Does anyone know about Helmholtz machines, or similar, and would be open to me asking a couple of questions?
I do experimental cognitive psychology and they're outside my expertise, and I think my questions are the type that are hard to answer through reading individual papers myself but should be simple for someone who is familiar with the higher level assumptions and norms of the field.
Thanks!
