Super frustrating article to read.

A single person being stabbed isn't a "major incident" if you're the chief of police or whatever a prefect is.

Correct.

Suppose you wanted students to upload assignments or something.

I'm gonna try out sftpgo when I have a minute. Docs say it does this.

If only there were some way that the people could kind of ha e their say and direct lawmakers th address some of these problems. The people need to choose some kind of representative that propose and pursue these changes. Imagine if you could just kind of "poll" the will of the people and add up everyone's choices to choose a representative.

Not really. Nextcloud does this. They call it a "file drop".

Like you create a share link for a folder, and then specify that users of that link can't see any files, only upload.

Edit: looking at the docs this one seems quite good. Thanks!

I was looking at this. Best option i found prior to making this post.

That was the first place I looked.

I was more or less exclusively lemmy for a good year or so, up until several months ago.

I would've logged into reddit maybe 3 or 4 times in the last year.

Sadly, I have to admit that browsing reddit with redlib or something is better than lemmy.

Lemmys main virtue is that its not reddit.

There's less content here, and it really is an echo chamber.

I'm a tax consultant, so I see a lot of people's side hustles.

As other's here have said, once you monetise a hobby it's not a fun hobby anymore... just another responsibility.

Take the beads thing for example. Carving some beads to make some cool jewellery sounds like a great hobby, and you could make some really amazing unique gifts for family. However, if you want to make money from it then you need to compete with other etsy vendors - you'll very quickly find the pieces that sell and then it becomes a question of how many of those pieces you can turn out per hour or per day.

Economically, making money requires time, or skill, or capital. The most appropriate will be a mix of all three that fits your circumstances. As a "side hustle" you kinda want a little of each rather than a lot of each. Good examples might be:

• window cleaning - for businesses or residences
• gutter cleaning - get one of those telescopic pole thingies with a camera so you don't actually need to go on anyones roof
• lawn mowing - just a few customers in your street

These things aren't "hobbies" but they will be a lot more satisfying, enjoyable, and profitable than carving beads.

It does kinda say this in the article.

I will add though, the main reason to use a drill press is precision, and it's hard to imagine a 3D printed structure wouldn't flex and warp during use.

Sure ok. If this is some crypto BS then that's reason enough to avoid the platform.

I just didn't think the CSAM angle is much of a criticism, even if they did try to minimise it.

That's i good point i guess.

There's no way to confirm so it's just a rumour.

This seems kinda harsh.

CSAM distribution is possible on pretty much any platform.

As long as the platform isn't obfuscating a user's IP address then I don't see how it's any worse than any other platform.

A few weeks ago everyone in this community was fawning over some dev's new anonymous zero-knowledge file sharing platform and no one seemed to care that it would be overrun with CSAM.

It's a glorified autocomplete, nothing more.

This statement is really just saying that an LLM can not reason about it's assertions.

"Mood swings" are a common misconception of bipolar disorder. Wikipedia says:

Most people who meet criteria for bipolar disorder experience a number of episodes, on average 0.4 to 0.7 per year, lasting three to six months. Rapid cycling, however, is a course specifier that may be applied to any bipolar subtype. It is defined as having four or more mood disturbance episodes within a one-year span.

So episodes of mania, hypomania, or depression occur over weeks and months rather than hours.

I don't know anything about physics and orbits other than what I learned from Simple Rockets on android, but from what I know it's always about how fast you're moving rather than how far away you are.

You're thinking that if you get far enough away then earth's gravity won't effect you any more, but it's not really like that. The effect does diminish as you move further away (inverse square law!) but you're still going to be effected, as in "how far away from this star do I need to go before I can no longer see it?"

In practice, you'll become far more effected by the Sun's gravity than you are by Earth's gravity, long before you really escape Earth's gravity.

That's why the answer to this question is how fast you need to go, rather than how high you need to be. If you could fire yourself out of a canon at 25,000 mph and were uneffected by atmospheric drag you'd leave Earth's area of influence faster than Earth can haul you back - so you escape.

However, if you were floating stationary 25,000 miles from Earth and uneffected by any other cellestial bodies, you're going to fall down Earth's gravity well.

Again, I don't really know anything about orbital mechanics so I suppose someone and their LLM will be along shortly to tell me how wrong I am.

This is the answer.

You can't reason someone out of an unreasonable position.

The only response is to ask them what evidence they would require to change their position.

They'll inevitably reveal that their assertions are merely beliefs because it's not practically possible to prove nor disprove them.

The extent to which that's possible is debatable.

I think it's simply that there's less incentive to find or to host those small forums.

is vibe coding just using an llm to assist or whatever?

This is less applicable to supermarkets a d more applicable to local green grocers.
