@tuban_muzuru why do you think this is a useful observation? What do you picture the summary might contain?

@cwebber let's list the factors:
- something you know
- something you have
- something you haave
- something you haaave
- something you haaaave
- something you haaaaave

@cwebber @unlofl @demiurg I said something to them like "I have to admit, I thought you would be one of the few vendors on the floor who wouldn't be doing an AI demo" they were like "[genuine] oh why is that?"

You know who was the only vendor there with zero AI marketing? Hashicorp. (They just weren't ready, they're all in on AIOps now that they're part of IBM.)

@demiurg @cwebber I talked to their team at Google Cloud Next when they announced this feature. I said, "somebody's going to sign based on your summary, regret it, and blame you. you're not worried about that?" and they were like "interesting, nobody has brought that up, email us and we'll get back to you"

@mattl @rl_dane @4censord exercism is free software, content is freely licensed & it's community funded. Definitely an exemplar of what we want to see imo. If you like it & you're able, kick them a few bucks.

@aral congrats! Can you say more about what you gain by having this be a dynamic site? My bias for the last ~10 years has been towards "make it static if it possibly can be," but I'd be interested in hearing a vigorous defense of dynamic homepages if you have one to offer.

@dalias apologies if this is 'splaining, but in my experience a lot of people who say some variation of "just send your own outbound email, you don't need to pay a company" don't realize the risk their advice carries.

@dalias @lanodan all the research I've read on deliverability comes from interested parties, I'd love to discover publications from independent researchers or labs.

@dalias this is a reasonable stance! However, in a thread about affordability of infrastructure for a paid newsletter, it's worth calling out the potential hidden costs of establishing email reputation and keeping a lawyer on retainer in case of delivery list ransom. I think we want people to be clear-eyed about those risks if they're staking their publishing income.

@dalias not sure how much you know about email deliverability, but in general it's not this simple. Email servers that send a lot of good non spammy email are treated as reputable and its emails will be more deliverable. Servers that send low traffic overall are treated as suspect, even if there's no spam reports, and a single report can sink you. For a self hosted paid newsletter, sending email from your own vps for free is likely to expose you to a lot of risk.

@nev @aparrish @mcc biblically accurate ratio

@dansup that's great news that you can use an existing account!

@infobeautiful you missed in your alt text that the Philippines is also marked as using US Letter paper! 🇵🇭

@Gargron @heinragas @baiteh @fesshole family members can choose to move away

@aral it wasn't shipping Wayland at all when you published the piece about accessibility, though. Of those on your list, elementary held back from shipping the busted experience. That seemed to be worth noting!

@aral I followed that whole saga, it was dismal. Glad the Mac is working better for you.

You should fix the note in your post that elementary is broken, because it still uses accessible X11 by default (Wayland will be an option in the upcoming release, but will not be the only option until accessibility features are mature there.)

@aral nice! I've thought about building a PC in that case but don't think I really have the space for it. Hope you find a good buyer, and condolences on the Mac!

@dansup how come I can't join with an existing fediverse identity? Is that on the roadmap?

I have a Mastodon account and a Pixelfed account, but I have to create a new one to try this? Feeling like we lost the sauce from the OpenID days, lack of federated identity doesn't feel good.

@mattly so fuck anybody who'd ask you to take basic table-stakes measures to secure your account? 🙄

Delete your account

@aral you wouldn't normally use a server side framework for something like this react kawaii app, right? I guess that put me in the frame of mind to be surprised. Could be an interesting area to improve on the state of the art.
