My best recommendation is a good git GUI. I really like Gitkraken (proprietary & freemium unfortunately, but a pretty generous free plan). I'm now more advanced than many of my coworkers because it helped me form an intuitive understanding of git.

~~Game mechanics can't be patented, only game assets (character models, etc)~~ I'm wrong!

I did one similar! Used autohotkey to hide the task bar at random intervals and pop up a warning that said "system out of memory". Only way to get it back was autohotkey or a reboot. It would restart daily and on login so it would keep happening. And I hid it as "Nvidia game scanner service.exe" in the Nvidia bloatware folder so it looked innocent. Had a good laugh about that one

The WinAmp maybe sorta open-sourcing is interesting. I've never used it (aside from downloading it to get MilkDrop working in Foobar2000).

Yeah exactly, but to get to that point we needed to message it to consumers as such for ~20 years. Similarly, in OPs example, the 20mg feels similarly to a 40mg, but with half the nicotine - clearly the measurement on the box is being used as a proxy for "how does this feel" (no clue if that has a measurement/is measureable) but could definitely message it similarly

That's when you take a page out of the book of lightbulb manufacturers. On the box, CFLs and LEDs don't show their actual wattage on the front, they write "100w equivalent" because that's how people are used to measuring luminosity.

That's what NEET technically means, but it's taken on a greater meaning (especially on 4chan) of "person who lives in their parents basement well past the age it's socially acceptable, has no social skills/is actively antisocial, has poor personal hygiene, and rarely (if ever) leaves the house".

That was great, thank you for linking! I expected to just skim it and ended up reading the whole article and the follow-up

Not my website. Interested to see how this will play out though!

 

As a long time follower, this is pretty exciting! I've definitely been looking for something along these lines.

I heard about this project years ago. Cool concept: standardized, interchangeable storage + identity that can be plugged into arbitrary apps. The idea is that your identity is tied to your data, and your data can be hosted anywhere so you can retain control over your data or use a simple provider. It was also created by Tim Berners-Lee, creator of the web.

However, it doesn't seem to be gaining traction anywhere, even in the already-niche self-hosting community. From the GitHub (which was hard to find on the website!) I could see that it's being actively developed, including a new website redesign, but everything else seems stagnant. Their newsletter has no updates since 2021. There are only a small handful of apps listed on the site and most of them haven't been maintained since 2019 or earlier, and a lot are just things like "solid pod explorer" or "demo app".

Anyone had any experience with it? Or know more about the situation? I would love to see this become more widely used.
