If you've been putting off buying a smol retrocomputer then now might be a good time to look again. I'm clearing out most of my shop and everything is priced to move. In the name of space I don't plan to restock some of the items like the Micro Osborne Ones.

@h_thoreson insulting junior people is terrible. We need to be lifting each other up regardless of where we are in our careers. There's always something we don't know no matter how long we've been working.
Also, I completely agree about your observations about the state of software engineering. It affects us all.

This screenshot shows the app analytics data sent by two different #iOS apps: Duolingo and Tinder. What's the likelihood that both apps are installed on the same device? 💯? 🤯
Both apps use Unity Ads. The data in the screenshot is collected by the Unity Ads framework included in these two apps, and any app that uses Unity Ads. The data is sent to the same Unity server. As a result, Unity Ads can easily fingerprint users and track them across different apps.

What Meta’s Fediverse Plans Mean for Threads Users | WIRED https://www.wired.com/story/meta-threads-fediverse-interoperability-rachel-lambert-interview/ :
> “It really does feel like we're kind of on the verge of this new era of social media,” Lambert says. “We have some ideas of what it might look like, but there's still so much for us to learn.”
This idea #Meta and its affiliates push that Zuck is kinda just winging it with some napkin thoughts is very very silly.

"Write code for the web" by Manav Rathi https://mrmr.io/apple
This is from an iOS developer, but as an Android developer, I came to basically the same conclusion 10 years ago. The web isn't perfect, but it's a near-universal platform not owned by anybody.

Netflix Architecture: How Much Does Netflix's AWS Cost? https://www.cloudzero.com/blog/netflix-aws/ :
> Netflix uses AWS for almost everything cloud computing. That includes online storage, a recommendation engine, video transcoding, databases, and analytics. So most of the $1 billion Netflix plans to spend on cloud services will go into Amazon Cloud Services.
If a #FAANG company uses #AWS, surely there's a market for social media cloud services. #Meta

That combination leans heavily on machines is my guess. Also, these articles rarely identify which platform the person was radicalized. Why?
