Yeah this is a great writeup. First time I noticed it. I’d follow your blog on RSS for sure.

Yeah. For them the American dream is about the access to cheap labor.

I agree. E-mail is the original federated service. And 50 years later, e-mail spam remains a big problem. I hope Fedi projects can get spam mitigations on-par with email, before spammers start getting serious about this place.
- Comment on Linux royalty backs adoption of Rust for kernel code 1 month ago:
Moving from C to C++ would also not solve any real problem. C++ of course adds OOP which I think can be nice (not everyone agrees with this!) but it also adds an insane amount of language complexity and instability. Mentally reasoning about C code is hard, reasoning about C++ code is nearly impossible.
Rust however brings a novel solution to classes of problems like ownership and mutability with the borrow checker. It’s now accepted to be a great tool for writing high performance code while preventing a substantial amount of common, but often subtle, bugs from slipping through. It’s not arbitrarily the first non-C code to be accepted in the kernel. And it’s used in other operating systems like Android and Windows already.
- Comment on The US, for being the greatest pusher of capitalism around the world, has the most socialistic policies for its major sports leagues 1 month ago:
“The problem is that we all too often have socialism for the rich and rugged free enterprise capitalism for the poor. That’s the problem.”

- Comment on Is PeerTube dead or is discoverability bad? 1 month ago:
Yeah, that must be it. It’s a real shame because the core technology seems to be solid. Streaming 1080p videos from other instances just works. But finding channels to follow seems impossible.

I was about to leave a snide “Eww, crypto” comment here, but this “Interledger Protocol” seems like the most good-faith approach to digital currency I’ve seen yet? I’m not knowledgeable enough to fully understand it, but I hope it will actually turn out to be a good thing.

It’s basically an NEC VR4300. Produced by NEC based on a MIPS R4300i.
