repartitioning remote machines is kind of exciting

#linux

there are a lot of different kinds of people on #Mastodon, we don't agree on everything

but we all at least care about the difference between "good" and "bad" social media

that's pretty cool

@aral are you running concurrent processes to consume the queues? default is 1 for all queues.

@mario I've had similar experiences with an entirely different domain of knowledge - I think it's a useful tool for "provoking thoughts" around an area you have knowledge

like if I want to generate some ideas for a video game, or figure out why some code doesn't work, even ChatGPT's wrong answers will get me thinking in a way that can be helpful - but I do think it's important that the person using it is qualified to detect BS

@evan here's an hour lecture of Tim Wu talking about it (not familiar with Tim Wu, nor have I watched this yet) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVZLl4EKQis

I unfortunately read pretty seldom now, being addicted to multi-media and constant stimulus. I can hardly just watch a video anymore, gotta do two things at once.

@evan what do you call that coffee maker? I have a bit of a collection of different ones but nothing quite like that!

I think I might use a moka pot this morning.

@evan I set one up for Atlantic Canada, but mine isn't the only one! There's at least one for Halifax too. Didn't know about the Fredericton one mentioned above.
