Since I saw a report about 1984 (because of a new audio version done for motherfucking Audible!) with the same talking points, here's the usual correction:
1984 is not a book about total surveillance. It's a book about how to ensure the middle class will never stand with the lower classes against power. It's about how to destroy solidarity. In 1984 only the middle class is surveilled, the lower classes (proles) and the upper class (inner party) are not. It's a book about power and class politics that is more relevant than ever - but not "because our phones surveil us".

What if businesses could solve one of their biggest challenges - finding skilled workers - by tapping into a resource hiding in plain sight? Apprenticeships offer a proven way to bridge the gap between raw potential and critical roles, especially in industries like cybersecurity.

I'm very happy with my audio now, multi-track, filters, all that jazz, but the visual (without eyes of my own) is proving convoluted.

Is there a math concept that never made sense to you? Which one or ones do you wish someone would explain in new ways?
If none of these come close you can mention something as a comment.
- fractions (6%, 3 votes)
- the derivative and rates of change (45%, 22 votes)
- conditional probability, sample spaces and such (54%, 26 votes)
- AND, OR and other logical operators (4%, 2 votes)
I got a pretty decent maths background and I can do derivatives and integrals and things, but I don't get limits very well. I sort of get it conceptually (something gets closer and closer to x when y grows) but I don't get how you can operate on those. Like the typical f'(x)=(f(x+h)-f(x))/h when h tends to 0... How can you possibly get anything out of that... when there's a tends to above and below, it's like you can kind of use them as real quantities but they're not?
And yes, I am mildly embarrassed about admitting this.
I was too busy last year, but this year I finish finals just in time to have fun with #AdventOfCode! Now, the question:
- do I stay in my comfort zone with Haskell (and finally learn string manipulation with it where I’ve just used c ffi before), or
- expand my low-level Rust knowledge by writing and optimizing the solutions?

#TIL I learned that German cities used to have a "Bettelvogt" or "Armenvogt" - a minor official whose job was it to "control the behavior" of beggars and other poor people.
They were explicitly tasked to _control_ beggars, and not help them in any way. Which just goes to show that shitty behavior towards poor people by the authorities was well-established long before the advent of #LateStageCapitalism .

INXS: Never Tear Us Apart
Prý nejslavnější hudební klip natáčený v Praze, a to ještě před pádem komunismu, v roce 1987. Prý se jim líbilo, že je to všechno "netknuté" a vypadá to středověce. Každopádně, až se nechce věřit, kolik klipů se v Praze natočilo (a na kolika z nich je hlavní nádraží).

110: A very 'odd' race | Lateral with Tom Scott
Comedy panel game podcast about weird questions with wonderful answers, hosted by Tom Scott.Lateral with Tom Scott
There is talk about about re-layering the transport parts of HTTP: provide a common multiplexing, streaming protocol that works over TCP as well as QUIC.
Motivations are twofold:
- extending HTTP now requires double work or breaks at CDNs (they talk QUIC to clients, but not to backends)
- TCP will not go away and HTTP/2 is weak in regard to DoS handling. No one wants to put more effort into extending h2.
So, there might be a HTTP/5 coming on top of a tcp/quic multipleXing thingie (TUIX?).
@bagder was t SPDY supposed to be a test to see if it was worth the effort of wildly deploying a new IP protocol beside TCP, UDP, and ICMP?
Didn’t SPDY work out well enough to prompt further research resulting in QUIC?
Can we move forward with the new protocol that rides on IP and fix this properly?
Why the layers on top of layers on top of more layers?
Entonces, Bluesky es "tan bueno y descentralizado" que ante la avalancha de usuarios han decidido realizar mejoras en su relay y han dejado de indexar los datos de los PDS federados desde hace mas de 24 horas dejándolos inutilizados.
Las cosas que pasan cuando una cosa descentralizada en la práctica no lo es. (Y no, la gente no va a montar relays porque es insostenible económicamente para personas normales, por lo que Bluesky va a tener siempre el control de la red)
