I see, thanks!

Interesting. Is that a programming language/file format that LLM implementations know how to interpret?

np! huh, seems to actually have done it in one go github.com/imax9000/blu...

Done bsky.app/profile/did:... It might need a few runs to populate completely, if it hits the rate limits.

github.com/imax9000/blu... It doesn't track firehose/jetstream, it does a much simpler thing: runs periodically and reconciles a given list with a defined set. I can add a list for JD Vance there too. Is it this account? bsky.app/profile/did:...

(For his 3D printer.)

Yeah, that's what I ended up using and actually completed the model. Fusion 360 could have been a viable option too, if they weren't hiding parametric variables behind a paywall.

And no amount of headbanging has helped me figure out the difference between circumstances when the operations work as expected and when they start doing wild shit like this.

...while you can reverse the direction, sometimes(!) it clips the result at the sketch plane, meaning that you either get a pad of the correct length in the incorrect direction, or a pad in the correct direction but of zero length.

thx! Turned out to be not too bad: bsky.app/profile/subo...

Ah, that sucks :(
comment in response to post
Hm, can you please elaborate a bit more? I'm genuinely curious how it got worse for you. If we're talking about this www.theverge.com/2024/9/11/24... - I took it as a substantial improvement over the previous family sharing stuff.

(Editing huge piles of YAML is horrible, so I'm moving towards generating manifests from a more sensible DSL. Which, in turn, creates a need for comparing generated outputs.)
comment in response to post
I might end up doing that for diffing against the live state (with a caveat that it will ignore deletions). But while working on a change I'm usually more interested in a diff against HEAD.
comment in response to post
Does it match corresponding objects on both sides well enough?

Also, relay mostly focuses on subscribing, rather than polling, and on the basis of the whole host (PDS) rather than individual account. So that would be a pretty dramatic change.

Sadly, 0.00005 nanoseconds after that AP/Mastodon people will show up screaming "scraping!!!!!"
comment in response to post
That's the smaller part of it. Bigger part is to make them meaningful, i.e., resolvable and fetchable, so they don't end up being just dangling links. For that you'd need to partially re-implement @ap.brid.gy.

Mapping interactions (replies/likes) is going to be non-trivial, because the target wouldn't have a meaningful ID in the other protocol
comment in response to post
Very curious what level of interop you'll reach 🙂
comment in response to post
So there probably are other factors that influence the coincidence rate.
comment in response to post
What I want to focus the attention on is the strong correlation between communism and authoritarianism. I don't think that a violent revolution alone is an exhaustive explanation for such link, since there were examples of revolutions that did not result in authoritarianism.
comment in response to post
But the focus of my original post was establishment of authoritarian regimes, and how declaration of building a communism seemingly always leads to that. I'm not saying that capitalism never does this - that is obviously not true.
comment in response to post
Now to your initial reply: I fully agree with you that in many cases regime change cannot be done without a violent revolution, and it's not something to be considered lightly. Violence always causes a lot of pain and suffering.
comment in response to post
getting into comparing communism and capitalism is too likely to devolve into shit-throwing, distracting from more complex aspects.
comment in response to post
As for this discussion, I'd prefer to keep capitalism out of it. Both to reduce the scope to allow more in-depth examination, and avoid "but at least it's not capitalism" being used as an argument in favor:
comment in response to post
Okay, to establish a baseline: I think that unrestrained capitalism is horrible and results in misery for almost everyone. US Republican party is a fascist party, and the current US government is extremely fascist. That is a vast topic in its own right.
comment in response to post
Thank you. It's time for me to sleep now, but I'm still very interested to understand your position better. I'd be very grateful if we could resume the discussion at some point, and preferably not in an antagonistic manner, but trying to enhance each other's knowledge.
comment in response to post
I'm trying very hard to avoid ever telling anyone what they think/feel. That wasn't my intention and I apoligize if I crossed the line.
comment in response to post
I understand what you're saying, and I don't think it holds water.
comment in response to post
I never said that, and I don't think that. Both options fucking suck. And you clearly have no idea of the realities of USSR if you think that what's currently happening comes any close to it.
comment in response to post
That I agree with.
comment in response to post
Just because it's what's happening right now?
comment in response to post
Then why did you bring capitalism specifically into the discussion?
comment in response to post
I'm very much not. I grew up in a country that was trying to raise from the ruin brought to it by communism. Do you believe that communism is the only alternative to capitalist authoritarianism? If so, why?
comment in response to post
And what I'm not getting is how do some people believe that communism is a solution while in practice it's going to get to authoritarianism a lot faster.
comment in response to post
I am. I'm not in US though: I have the luxury of observing that particular clusterfuck from a distance.
