@Science

"“It can scarcely be denied that the supreme goal of all theory is to make the irreducible basic elements as simple and as few as possible without having to surrender the adequate representation of a single datum of experience.”

-- Einstein

(The origin of the following psudo-quote most likely)

“Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler”

I'm wondering if the EDPB shouldn't intervene with an official communication against #Microsoft as they are once again misleading the public, first with their invalid SCCs and now by stating they comply and exceed EDPB's recommendations.

There is absolutely nothing in their blog and attached document that resembles any of the additional measures required to comply with EDPB's recommendations but it seems like it doesn't really matter to them.

Ugh, @GitHub waking up, reminding me that I already had a #YouTubeDL fork I forgot about.

Sorry but no, erasing it and forking again is *not* an option, this is rewriting history to please @RIAA. 😠

I did nothing wrong, nor @YouTubeDLTeam. Just put it back and I'll push to it.

And it's specially ridiculous considering I didn't push to this one for years and it only has like 1 commit from me.

Hi #fediverse

I created a new variation of our Pyramids of Humane Technology that depicts the two opposing pathways we people might walk together:

- A path of awareness and building humane technology solutions: A path towards Flourishing.

- A path of ignorance and increasing Big Tech domination and harms: A path towards Dystopia

@Electronics

I wanted to share my favorite circuit simulator to the electronics group. It isnt the most advanced and it wont replace professional tools. But its great at modeling semi-ideal components with an epic way of visualizing current and voltage that just makes it an amazing tool at getting a feeling for how circuits actually work.

Everyone should check it out and play with it, you wont regret it.

Unpopular opinion: i64, int64_t, Int64 and similar types should be named according to their actual meaning, Ring64.

Even better, all programming languages should have a Ring[N] type that provides unit, zero addition and multiplication over a domain of N-bit strings, with the compiler applying proper optimizations when available (and requested).
