I was very surprised by how many people would follow the CEO out like that. The board really failed to represent or listen to their workers.

Not-for-profits I feel tend to have this alignment issue...

Libre Software was/is the best strict definition of this to me.

Near-Future file type concept "Digital Memory" in c/technology@lemmy.ml

I like the idea. Basically turning b Roll and background info into reproduceable info. So you could for example get a pixel perfect 8k view of say the main subject and edit around that instead of needing actual 8k of unimportant background scene.

I think an added one would trying to explore more with latent space to see how precise would might be able to get with the AI compressed details.

Does this mean anything to anyone else? I just see question marks (on Lemmy and Fenic)

Really great read! The fact that it runs lean makes me wonder if a CI pipeline would be reasonable for some folks to do

I was a computer enthusiast on a budget, so trying out new software to tinker with and rice my desktop was pretty limited until I really got into Linux. Which I started to feel I had to when I hit more and more limits on windows.

Proton Mail CEO Calls New Address Verification Feature 'Blockchain in a Very Pure Form' in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

It's the coordinated decentralization that really defines web from web2 and 1. Cooperative vs competitive coordination is just a sub strategy within that, but I don't think either strategy is always best for all problems.

I like Dan Olson's video but I don't think it's truly unassailable. There is some real use cases for block chains in low trust networks. One of those being global monetary policy. Another critic is that web3 applications (like Mastadon and Lemmy ..) I think is moving forward even more so as the age of easy money comes to a full close.
