fedbook··on Ask HN: Why would a city on Mars avoid Armageddon?
Exactly. This is why I am pro exploration but not colonization. At least not until we can terraform. Colonizing mars now would be a huge waste of resources.
fedbook··on Perfect time for Apple to license the mac?
I’m a datacenter tech. The amount of dongles and outdated drivers required for simple serial connections or vga connections wastes tons of time. Licensing out the M1 would allow for a company to make a MacBook like laptop with every port! Perfect for technicians.
fedbook··on I Miss the Old Internet (2019)
Just beings a devils advocate for a second - People exposing personal details to the public can be very bad and make them victims of untold numbers of what should be crimes. We know this from just the data and privacy nightmare unfolding before us. It's normal to romanticism the past, but there's a certain comfort in security with less of clear open blogs.
fedbook··on Will Truth Social help the web?
Then call it what you want. Organized crime. Whatever.

It’s a compromise. You can’t have your cake and eat it too. If we are to make life easier in some respect, we suffer in another. Over time we might find solutions which will only yield alternative compromises.

I like coffee but it yellows my teeth. Wah wah wah…

fedbook··on Statement from Mark Zuckerberg
They do a lot of good bringing people together, but it’s a double edged sword with massive potential for abuse. It’s not up for debate that Facebook causes harm. The only question is how much is too much? At what point do we step in, tell them their mitigations are ineffective, and break up or regulate their systems?

Open to all of the above.

It's an experiment. Had the project for so long that I opened up to .edu as well because I'm not getting any users.

I think it would naturally become safe from being a cesspool because the ideal platform will force real identity.

This is my website I am working on. While not technologically advanced, it's basically MVP stage. Looking for anyone interested in trying it out.
