People are so soft now. Back in the day, we'd line up to see Harrison Ford do it; sometimes multiple times!

Snowflakes, man

Wait, you are saying that people with more capital have more power under capitalism?

They run great on arm, too! I got a raspi 4 running everything smooth as butter. The most problematic aspect is interfacing with the usb drives; I eventually had to move them to a powered hub to get the required current.

Celery Beat is pretty good

People who mainlined lesswrong think this.

What does that mean? Like a single domain that randomly routes to different sites or?

And where would the database live?

I have it open on another tab, I use it pretty much every day. I've built incredible friendships in there; And when I started I knew nobody on the protocol. A lot of the people I am mutuals with aren't even on the same instance as me; and yet, somehow I was able to find and connect with them. When they post things, I see it. When I post things they see it.

Like, what you are saying is so nonsensical as to be not even wrong.

I /think/ you are trying to say something about discoverability, but like, it's not really that hard. You can just watch the local or federated tabs, and if you see anything interesting check it out. If someone seems alright you might even reply to something they post. Pretty soon you are having conversations, and the people you follow are boosting other nice, interesting people onto your home tab. Next thing you know, you are part of a community. It's great!

And all of this happens without the need for some weird corporate overlord to try and mediate the experience by way of manipulating you in order to keep you online longer so they can steal your data and shove ads down your optic nerves.

It's federated, mate. You don't need to be on the same server as your friends to talk to them.

Yes to all of those. The only issue is some smaller instances with limited admin bandwidth might only federate automatically with larger, well moderated instances to help reduce their own moderation burden.

If you want to be well federated even with the smaller instances, you need to hang around for a while; build connections within the larger communities; then ask to federate with any smaller instances you want to connect directly with.

Its the same thing. Rises on the network effect, falls on the network effect.

The value of these no-code solutions is in letting domain experts workout the requirements and prototype workflows to their own problems.

If it stops scaling; that's a pretty good sign engineers should start actually building the thing

Can you do SSL?

A wallpaper generator could be a rad application of this, actually. You could feed some random poetry into gpt and the outputs of gpt into the input of this, randomly pick an output, and everytime you login to your computer some surreal, never before seen image.

I'd dig it.

Yea, I was wondering about that; but the risk feels similar to a browser RCE to me. Maybe it's higher because browsers are more widely used/analyzed; but then again, a browser RCE has a much wider range of targets with more opportunities to exploit

What security implications does running curl have that wouldn't be present in a browser?
