Ironically enough I know of a family office for who the most accurate information was a reddit post. It was from some rando on the other side of the world who spent a few months stalking peoples 15 year old facebook profiles to find the connections between them.
It was astonishing that someone who by their own admission was working part time at a gas station making less than minimum wage did more due diligence than anyone they had worked with including a number of three letter agencies.
The post has since been deleted and the account banned.
>It is kinda like talking about Schrödinger's cat. With a game of telephone people think the cat is both alive and dead and not that our models can't predict definite outcomes, only probabilities.
It isn't just our models that can't explain it, there are real physical limits which mean that _no_ model can predict what state the cat is in.
The only reason why cats are a more outrageous example than electrons is that we see cats behave classically all the time.
The only vaguely plausible explanation why cat states are impossible in general is that large quantum system become spontaneously self decoherent at large enough numbers of particles.
I have a number of Dasung products and the results are spectacular. I can code for hours on end with no eye strain and my sleeping schedule is normal for the first time in 15 years. The lack of flashiness on the screen also lets me think more about what I'm doing.
> A positive about that whole experience is that it's made me way better at clickbait, which seems to have worked because you've been interacting with my content at all.
Sure, it's also made me less likely to install NixOS.
Funny way to try and help a project, but what do I know, I haven't been in a cult and I'm terrible at clickbait.
Talking about technology as though it has any moral imperative other than "make more money" in the West is naive at best. At worst it is not only boring to anyone over 21, but it's counter productive to improving the world. Our newest toys are there to distract from the woman behind the curtain.
In short: let me read what I want and save your moralizing for the people who actually make decisions. None of which are technologists (any more).
The difference is that software projects are always hot garbage that barely works. So long as end user functionality doesn't change this is at worst benign.
UI changes on the other hand are always detrimental to users who have spent the time learning how to use the software.
I have Crohn's disease and I get extremely sharp depressive symptoms up to a week before a flare up. The longer the lead time the worse the flare up. It's rather interesting to have depression re-framed as a symptom rather than as a disease. It does make me wonder if in the future we'll be looking at the treatment of depression today like we do at the treatment of fever with leaches.
>As bad as it is in the short term the only way we'll see long term change is to keep the friction on. It's this friction that forces the change of habit to support manufacturers who open their firmware. If it's seamless then there's no incentive to seek out the open option next time you buy.
The only friction you're causing is to Debian users. My current laptop is Arch after 5 laptops that ran Debian. My Debian desktop is barely functional with the friendliest AMD GPU to Linux I could find.
By my next update cycle I will be Debian free for the first time in 20 years. Debian needs less friction if it wants to keep me as a user.
