    @inthehands didn’t we already have a problem with more and more programmers avoiding that kind of wrestling? Between the hype about high paying jobs and the economic context squeezing everyone harder to the point where an ordinary job can barely support a single person, my sense of it has been that what was once a small group of people inclined to focus on that part has been overtaken by a much larger group more interested in a better wage, whether by necessity or by disposition

    @inthehands I dunno, I think we just gave away the role of managing the word’s reserve currency. I don’t know what will happen next, but I think it will resemble one of three things:
    - Some other currency ultimately replaces the USD, tho it will take a few decades for for that to emerge
    - We stop having a single reserve currency for the world and and up with a handful of regional reserve currencies
    - After a period of diversification and uncertainty it eventually returns to the USD

    @inthehands @Rycaut right, I made my comparison public - https://mastodon.social/@ShadSterling/110763753963099232

    Didn’t actually compare on how much I like the web interface

      After a windfall in 2021 I made a lot of small investments while trying to figure out a proper investment plan, and eventually made a spreadsheet to compare accounts. Here is a link for anyone else making similar decisions who might find my comparisons useful: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14tuJTcBN0zGd_tnGPGltQaKaxohJX8c7ItIlugd969s/edit?usp=sharing (1/2)

    @inthehands @Rycaut huh, I tried out I think 6 different brokerages, and decided Fidelity was the best. There’s a few things Schwab does better, and it was a different one that allowed buying mutual funds by shares, but it was way better than most of the web interfaces

    @inthehands what’s this sniper story?
    My quick search only turned up more comments with the claim that he said that, no good sources

    @inthehands maybe make plans in advance to safely dispose of the wreck afterward. I don’t know what’s involved or how hard that is, but having a smashed up car with live batteries and connections in unknown condition and no plan for what to do with it doesn’t sound great.

    For extra fun, remove the batteries first and rent a jackhammer or two

    @xgranade I wish it were new. I mean I think it’s new from him, but there have been others drooling over the land grab the whole time. Another layer of disgusting on top of all the horrifying

    @inthehands the basic problem with that kind of “encrypted” “email” is that it’s only one of those at a time; it’s either encrypted end-to-end and delivered some other way, or it’s encrypted per-hop and delivered as email. None of those services do both at once. It should be possible to do both at once using GPG or S/MIME, but for that to actually work every provider would have to handle it well, and AKAIK none do.

    It still baffles me that banks haven’t been pushing this

    @inthehands while that update is an improvement, and maybe better than some other orgs, I wouldn’t go so far as to applaud. I can’t quantify how much the bad post decreased my perception of how much good they do, this followup has increased it from there but not as far as back to where it was

    @eff moving their moderation team into a jurisdiction that intentionally endangers the lives of cis women and all trans people warrants condemnation, not applause

    @Virginicus @nebulos @futurebird that’s like an extension of “It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it!”

    @inthehands @mcnado my only concern with this approach is that if he does issue a pardon and the CEO assassin is released then we’ve expanded his authoritarian powers

    @mkj @Owlor @mcc I always hate these “you must sign away whatever we want or you can’t do this” checkboxes, especially when “do this” amounts to “have a job” or “get healthcare” or “use a bank”. The lack of protections for people to have necessities under fair terms is a scourge on our society

    @mekkaokereke @Okanogen @luciano I remember that statement from news reports at the time, but didn’t see the connection to insurrectionists until now. Are there news outlets that did make that clear? I’d sure like to follow them

    @inthehands @atrupar @LizDye saw a news report the other day that talked about how white women are angry about overturning roe and have made videos about cancelling out your husbands Trump vote a thing on TikTok, and said early voting so far is 53% women. I hope that’s a good sign, but I don’t know of a way to tell. I don’t know who put it this way first, but the stakes being what they are and having unclear signs like that have me “nauseously optimistic”

    • Carly Sagan

    @carlysagan I went back to college inspired by the possibility of dramatically increased computing power to improve physical simulations, ultimately completing a triple-major in CS, physics, and statistics. Afterward I haven’t been lucky enough to do that kind of work, but I know a fair bit about doing physics on a computer, and the statistical underpinnings of ML. From my perspective, this prize is a betrayal of everything that made the Nobel prize worth aspiring to.
