"If you're under 25 your brain isn't fully developed, so you can't be trusted to make informed decisions"
I'm seeing this a LOT lately, especially today with the Cass Review fallout. And it's utter guff, based on hearsay, misunderstandings of neuroscience, or wilful ignorance.
@elmowilk been following you on this for a while now. Any plans on a native Mac build? (No skin in the game either way, was just surprised at no Mac spec sheet given... Bevy 😂)
Time for another reminder that I am a real human/not AI.
I recently tried bouldering with some friends out in Austin. Am I a giant, do I have miniature friends, or is the camera angle simply playing tricks on us? The world may never know.
Hey 'straya, some good news! I'm doing some early ground work for in-person Rust training (beginner and advanced options). I'll beach the whales if you lock up the dropbears.

@timClicks 🤫 I thought we had an understanding New Zealand. No telling the other countries what we've got going down here... you know how jealous they can get.
@timClicks it's actually not at all straightforward to do from a banking perspective.
End of the day utility grade international transactions (ie I can guarantee this cash has landed in an institution in a foreign country with different laws and requirements, at the rate that I quoted at the start of the transaction and at institutional levels of capital movement) requires insane trust, nation spanning platforms and legal frameworks and the integration of hyper-competitive organisations.
This is so cool! The engineers at MIT discovered that cement and carbon black (paracrystalline carbon) can be mixed to create a supercapacitor that still behaves like cement. That means you can build cement structures that store energy. They estimate that 45 m³ of this material is enough to store 10 kWh (about a day’s worth of energy for a home).

can't emphasize this enough: "parents rights" i use bullshit across the board, but in particular transphobic parents should not have any power over their children
@saddestrobots nope. Educate and support parents so they're better able to raise their kids but the minute you suggest that I surrender my right to educate and protect my kids to, say, Florida you've lost me.
@timClicks@fluke I suppose more seriously consider whether they're doing anything you're not, and if you're pretty much efforting at a similar rate don't charge any less than them because they have dialed in that price based on experience and factoring in a lot of cruft you haven't even thought of. I would go so far as to say pitch yourself a bit above what they're doing because you want to build in that buffer to give you additional room to adjust and dial in what you're doing.
@timClicks yah DRM is great. I'm introducing some DRM into the server software used to manage Googles banking to automatically deduct 25% of their revenue each time they breach someone's privacy without expressed KYC'd and hand written consent.
