👨‍💻 William Young This is something that really resonates with me. It's s paradoxical problem for someone making a social media of trying to make something that is healthy by not gamifying it, but at the same time generating a network effect by people returning frequently. A great example that has tried to find this balance is BeReal.
🐓 Mega What's interesting with BeReal is it's probably the most gamified social media, yet it's one where you essentially cannot doomscroll. It kinda baffles me that BeReal is able to find a balance that still keeps it entertaining and capable of keeping interesting content without needing constant sustained interactions from both the creator and consumer sides, but I'm definitely not upset about it. BeReal's a really interesting case that has struck all the right chords of a social media, in my opinion.

🦿 Lucian Marin Why I changed the sidebar design? To improve one hand usage on mobile devices, especially on the Android app (play.google.com/st...), to reduce the gray color in design and to make sure content stands out and doesn't depend on sidebar layout.
🐓 Mega I kind-of miss the gray but do what you think is best.

🦿 Lucian Marin Try Washington, United States. It works. I will try to match location by city name alone.
🐓 Mega I just edited my post saying this lol. I could do that but it's not really the same. I guess I'm just picky.

🐓 Mega Tried to edit my profile; I don't think I can set "Washington, DC" as my city, how would I do it? (I guess I could just put "Washington" but it's not really the same since it's in the District of Columbia.

Zero Edge Just fyi, from an employer: If you have no work history from about May 2020 - September 2021, you look like a lazy who sat on the sidelines while the majority of us worked our butts off. Gives off a bad impression. Probably better to make something up for those dates..
🐓 Mega "Worked on personal projects" lol

☝️ Jean-David Moisan I'm using it for my game, the controls are like StarCraft or League of Legends where you click somewhere to make your character move there. --- Here is how the algorithm looks when it's searching for a path. gfycat.com/wellgro... This all happens instantly.
🐓 Mega That's really cool! I'm looking forwards to seeing more on this :)

☝️ Jean-David Moisan I've been recoding my free space pathfinding algorithm. It's so cool! gfycat.com/unhappy...
🐓 Mega That's really cool! Are you going to use it for something or is it just for fun? Also, can it go around both boxes at once?

🦿 Lucian Marin Tesla Bot is a genius AI pivot from Elon Musk. A self-driving car has unlimited degrees of freedom and the only way to reduce them is to have smart roads. Where robots can be trained to replace all workers in a warehouse for exemple. This way you keep adding specific degrees of freedom you train robots for. Also, the Bot will increase entropy in the AI field more than a fully autonomous car.
🐓 Mega I think that I agree that it's going to help more than harm, but dang is that this a bit creepy. Thankfully it's not uncanny valley creepy and more just.. ominous.

Zero Edge If you buy crypto for "short term gains" you are the greater fool.

🐓 Mega Is there a way to change what your little profile button is? Mine just says "meg" and I'd think it would be cool if it could be your chosen emoji.

🦿 Lucian Marin So if user.emoji: logo = user.emoji else: logo = user.username[:3] but not sure everyone would like it.

Cole Hudson Why does nearly every business announce via Business Wire? Why not a normal blogpost? It's unclear to me what it's distinguishing attributes are, perhaps a direct feed into newsrooms?
🐓 Mega Might just be easier/get out to more people. I feel like people would actively look for a blog post while Business Wire would come to them (in a way).
