Agree, really thankful for those

Love it, you’ve got to do 132nd street next. Trying to exit south bound during rush hour is delightful

I always think as an individual I would like this. But at scale I worry it would incentivize each department to advertise themselves to the public, which seems to me like a waste of funds. I already dislike the reelection cycle (politicians incentivized to always be fundraising) and would hate to see that happen per department.

(1) playing with godot and building a Polynesian sailing rpg where you navigate waters by reading waves

(2) setting up MCP servers for Spotify and Substack that can pull what I’ve recently read / listened to. I want to try pulling transcripts and guest information to build myself a recommendation/follow system

(3) raising the sweetest little 5mo old

Interesting, where would you suggest someone starts if they’ve never seen that side of the sport?

Direct Air Capture is slow, but I think is a better solution than the "don't cut down trees" offset that we've historically seen. I hope that continued investment in DAC leads to new solutions to make it more effective.

I thought the StarWars telnet went offline? :/

I had to do similar things while in Canada. Trying to get HBO was impossible for someone living in a dorm.

Facebook and Twitter do not have the violent posts solved by any measure. But at the very least they make the gestures and put money towards trying to fix it.

Parler has been vocal that they have no plans solving it. If they had at least showed some vague plan to resolve it, they would have earned some sympathy.

(In US) I agree that business owners should never refuse people based on political opinions. I would be firmly against AWS/Google not willing to work with a company because it has conservative views.

In Parler's case, the issue isn't that they are conservative. The issue is that they refuse to take any responsibility for the hate and violence on their platform. John Matze had every opportunity to take responsibility for the content, but he was vocal that he would not do anything about it.

If I were running a cloud provider company, I wouldn't want anything to do with this behavior either. Who cares whether the users lean right or left - hate and violence are unacceptable.

Sounds interesting, but could you explain to me why I should use this over something like Azure KeyVault?

Those are very small sample sizes to make any assumptions from. 11 clicks for their test, and only 256 clicks for the larger referenced test. The larger test then makes a huge assumption in user behavior:

"So, arguably, a user who sees this ad and clicks legitimately on it will be looking to get a demo of the analytics tool we were marketing"

Uh, no. Just because the ad brought them to your site, doesn't mean the user wants to interact with your video. You got them there, you have to work to keep them.

Sure the tech isn't great, but you've made a really great community with great content. You shouldn't be ashamed of choices at all - tech doesn't have to be perfect to deliver on its goals.

Shh, they might find us.
