Ventura, Ventura, Spaceship People!

Never meet your heroes

That’s good to know. Thanks!
- Comment on The Google Pixel 8 is official with 7 years of updates 1 year ago:
What’s happening with hardware replacements? I’d be shocked if batteries lasted seven years.
I saw something about partnering with iFixit. Is there gonna be a program where we can get a certified battery installed in four years time?
- Comment on Is there something better than SQL? 1 year ago:
We’re replacing protocols with Rust now?
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
Not for me. Last.fm knew my tastes perfectly. Spotify just craps the same dozen artists at me.

Stroking intensifies
- Comment on What if public transit was like Uber? A small city ended its bus service to find out 1 year ago:
I’m not sure how I feel about this. On one hand, access to transit is great. On the other hand, I feel like the greenhouse gas reductions would be minimal.
- Comment on What is your current read? 14 September 2023 1 year ago:
Looks cool. Thanks for the tip.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
I’d worry more about content.
If the amount of non-bot posts/comments per user is falling, then there may be a health issue.
But I’d wait a bit longer before freaking out.
- Comment on The End of Airbnb in New York 1 year ago:
Airbnb prices are approaching that of hotel rooms. You typically get a kitchen at an Airbnb, but the price argument doesn’t seem accurate from the listings I’ve looked at.
- Comment on What's stopping WebAssembly from effectively replacing JavaScript? 1 year ago:
This is it.
WebAssembly AFAICT is all about making existing code runnable in a JavaScript environment. JavaScript isn’t great itself, but Chrome provides pretty amazing tooling, so it’s good enough.
Add to that: if you want to write WASM in a strongly typed language, you need support libraries that define all of the browser primitives. If you’re an accomplished web developer, it’s more effective to stay in js.

TIL PayPal still exists
- Comment on On the future of Lemmy vs reddit 1 year ago:
Keep in mind that Lemmy users think Lemmy is a real alternative.
If someone asked me to choose between the two sites, and there was no baggage, Reddit would win hands down. The Reddit user base is huge, meaning even small towns have active subreddits. Here, not so much.
- Comment on On the future of Lemmy vs reddit 1 year ago:
It was fine on June 12. It didn’t have the polish that decade-old Reddit apps had, however.
I’m guessing Jerboa development has kicked into overdrive and it will soon catch up.
- Comment on [HN] When seat belt laws drew fire as a violation of personal freedom 1 year ago:
Dole issued a rule in 1985 that required automakers to install driver’s side airbags in all new cars unless—and this is the kicker—two-thirds of the states passed mandatory seat belt laws by April 1, 1989. Dole’s rule was so politically adroit because it looked like a regulation, but was really a gift to the auto industry. Cars already had seat belts, so all Detroit had to do was convince states to pass mandatory seat belt laws and it was off the hook for installing expensive air bags or automatic belts.
What a messed up country. When presented with a technology that can cheaply save hundreds or thousands of lives a year, legislators need to resort to stupid tricks to make it mandatory.

I guess they had to grow vegetables themselves? Damn.
- Comment on AI might be able to prove it has sentience if it uses one time pads to encrypt its thoughts 1 year ago:
like what does encrypting a signal prove? and why does it have to be a one time pad?

thank you
- Comment on Samuel L. Jackson Claims Strange Film Editing May Have Cost Him Academy Award Consideration 1 year ago:
Ironically, it looks like this article has been edited to make seem like SLJ is angry, but he understands the decision:
But, he said, “That s— is not in the movie! And I know why it’s not. Because it wasn’t my movie, and they weren’t trying to make me a star.”
Tone is important, so maybe he was frothing at the mouth when he said it, but I read that as him disliking the decision but understanding it.
