@thealexknapp Well, yeah, guns are tools of the trade in rural areas.
Less development means more wildlife means more predators means people need to be able to defend themselves.
That's not a US-specific phenomenon either, so framing it as red-vs-blue is hardly telling the full story.

Got some sushi for lunch and they forgot the wasabi. So, I pulled out a tube of the stuff that had been in my fridge for ages.

The good news is that my sinuses are now very clear. The bad news is that I won't be able to taste anything for the next week or so.

It's crazy how much most restaurants water that stuff down.

@mzedp @ct_bergstrom @emilymbender Right, but a common use case will be replacing customer service phone banks with AI. If an AI offers one customer a discount, but not another, wouldn't that have strong potential to be discriminatory?

@SecurityWriter Isn't it safe to say that most security audits happen because companies know they're terribly screwed, and are finally spending the money to find out just how screwed?

You may just be a victim of sampling bias.

@freemo Not familiar with Elixer, but Python seems like the only reasonable answer there.

That said, I'd vote for C# with ASP.NET. The modern framework is portable and has much stronger language features to help prevent bugs up-front with less debugging and testing down the line, plus Razor Pages offer an elegantly simple solution to the model-view conversion.

@ct_bergstrom @emilymbender That's going to open up a whole new cottage industry of "AI Breakers" who learn how to prompt AIs to break their limitations and make discriminatory statements just to sue... The lawyers are gonna be so rich.

Took my first ground school lesson today and got my FTN number!

Finally on my way to being a pilot, which I've wanted to do since I was a kid.

@mike @cgerrish @shoq The biggest difference between ActivityPub and email, in my mind, is that the former encourages wide casting of content, whereas emails have far fewer recipients, by design. That contributes heavily to the network effect of content bloat.

@pixelpusher220 @shoq Right, but the best way to do that... is centralized caching infrastructure.

@freemo Right, but many of those existing services distinguish themselves by serving different types of content.

So, any new players need similarly distinguishing features to rise from obscurity.

Modular design could be that feature, but ActivityPub itself is pretty open to modularity on its own, so I wonder what the added value is in Bonfire...
