The first thing I noticed was that the pain was gone. The tall, thin, hooded figure let me bask in that for a moment.
IT IS TIME
"Oh," I said, looking down at the frail vessel I had inhabited all my life. "Right."
COME
"Do you remember," I asked as we walked, "everyone you come for?"
YES
"Fondly?"
I DO NOT JUDGE. AS A RULE, I SPEND LITTLE TIME WITH PEOPLE AS THEY LIVE
"No, but you spend some time with them after, like now."

Further proof we are in the stupid timeline:
It should not be possible for a simple on-off switch to crash and refuse to disconnect the power.
One thing many software developers, especially web, seem incapable of understanding is that a tool can provide a productivity benefit to the dev individually—improve the developer experience if you will—while at the same time having a catastrophic effect in the software product as a whole.
Devs didn’t learn this with React and I personally doubt LLMs will be any different.
They also often don't understand that some tools take a few days to setup but can ease a lot of stress and improve productivity a lot.
I worked at a terrible startup. Our CTO and frontend devs would constantly interrupt us asking us to change api responses. "I want this feature and for this demo." etc.
I proposed we set up graphql so that they can get whatever they want from the db. They were like "nooo but my precious demos. Our vcs will not like it if we don't show anything for a week. "
It's the same "we need to keep shipping" mentality that is responsible for devs and companies abusing llms.
Is Concern Over Security Overrated?
The average user may believe that all the hype they read about security on the internet is overrated. To be honest some of it is and some of it is just to sell you a product you do not need.
In the case of Internet Facing Services this is not the case. If you have an internet facing service then you have to be sure your server is secure. This is why I insist on SELinux on my servers. AppArmor is easier to configure though not as configurable as SELinux for as many cases. I would also strongly suggest you never disable SELinux (or AppArmor if that is what you are using) to ease installation and implementation. It is not worth the risk. Just learn to use your Gnu/Linux Hardening system to its fullest extent. Do not disable it.
I have attached a screenshot of an ssh session to my VPS. As you can see every few seconds an attack fails. This is why the security is required.

Yes, I kind of figured that though I do not see the point of running both a friendica and mastodon instance. I cannot afford another VPS and I would rather not divide up the resources further than I already have. Friendica really uses a lot of memory too.
Tariffs are bad for business, and worse for consumers.
We regret the unjustified 25% tariff on steel and aluminium imports imposed by the United States worth $28 billion.
We are responding with countermeasures worth up to €26 billion.
Nobody needs that – on both sides, neither the European Union nor the United States.
In a world fraught with uncertainties, it is not in our common interest to burden our economies with tariffs.

@omegaprobe @pluralistic Interesting, thanks!
The conclusion is at the end of the article. TL;DR: EU Copyright Directive was passed because it then US wouldn't put tariffs on EU goods. Its article 6 prevents jailbreaking iPhones and Teslas, cracking DRM, etc. Abolishing it costs us nothing, but it would hurt the intellectual monopolies of US and unleash a new wave of creative companies.
As an American citizen, I'm begging Europeans to stop respecting US IP law.
One sure fire way to galvanize more of our corporations against this stupid trade war.

nice, works. I'll be using this to share sounds of nature that I record with my sound equipment while I am out hiking. This will include birds, river sounds and other forest sounds of interest.
I may even try and combine sounds to make relaxing meditation sounds for sleep or even light music.

While Loops is open source, a lot of the recent updates haven't been published yet.
I will fix that. It's not that I'm trying to centralize or control everything, I just struggle with imposter syndrome and my code quality.
This is why it's taken 4 iterations of the Pixelfed app before it was open sourced, but now I'm more confident and continue to grow and evolve as a developer.
I will do better, I promise!

Nothing beats an unexpected DM full of advice from one of your heroes.
I can't believe they even know about me, and yeah that wisdom they so eloquently advised was so on point.
They advised me to develop Loops and Sup in the open, and gain trust by showing my work.
Despite my imposter syndrome, I know I can do this and be better.
So I will 💪

One thing that may help with your impostor syndrome would be to be sure you setup GitHub to allow you to sign your commits. You have to create a gpg key and then furnish the public key to them. The instructions are online. In this way you can prove your code is yours.
I have attached a screenshot that shows you were in your setting that you can configure this. They have very detailed instructions on how to set this up, just click the link below the GPG section.
