Yes but we're also more mastodon less bluesky. If a bluesky-esque clone of Reddit comes along with better UX and paving over the issues of federation then it will win, the way Bluesky has beaten out Mastodon as the Twit alternate

The choose N heroes things is also in deadlock. They require you to choose 3 and you're given 1 based on preference and queue time. Can't be a1-trick but you can usually get the same hero each game

I've been an android developer for a decade at this point, I'm aware of how app deep links work.

The comparison is not "what LOE is call linking from scratch" but rather "how does call linking meshing into existing production codebases across all platforms compare in LOE to 3 buttons?" And the answer is self evidently more.

You're minimizing the amount of effort and we're comparing it to buttons. Adding "a few buttons" is very different than setting up 3 platforms to all use a new protocol (calls from links will require new handling - previously all calls were just based on authenticated users being allowed into webrtc calls based on their tokens. Now you have to have a new handler which joins a call with the token in the URL - that can't be handled identically). Then we get into the Android app, much of which is still in Java, which uses multi-activity-srchitrcgure meaning you've gotta pass data through each layer manually, rewriting each of these activities to accept the new deep link and route to the right end.

And then you've got to be sure it all coordinates across iOS, Android and your backend.

It's not hard but it's not "a few buttons". It's probably 2 weeks of work for skilled and competent engineers, 1 per platform.

Do you actually have any experience in Mobile dev? You sound like a fresh outta college junior eng - cocky and confident that everyone else is wrong, making it harder than it needs to be etc.

Just like that cocky junior eng you're too unaware of what you don't know to realize you're wrong. Wade through the grass a few times and you'll realize the flowery meadow is full of snakes.

Call links are a lot more work than "a few buttons"

I heard rumors someone burned his house down. No idea if they're true or not.

PLA is widely used as a medical plastic and its normal decomposition is into lactic acid.

Even if it is just being atomized down into smaller and smaller particles it's safer for you than any other common plastic.

The colorants added are the only risk

My point is that it was foreseeable and it was her goal. She never wanted congestion pricing, she wanted to run on it because it was popular and then tank it in a way that won't hurt her reelection.

This is calculated.

She's moving forward with it so that Trump can block it. Then she'll say "look at me fight trump" and also "nothing we can do sorry"

I'm pro nuclear as well but we absolutely can maintain this level of energy consumption on renewables alone.

The question is cost and risk - I'm for diversification of our grid which includes nuclear.

But it is getting to the point where renewables with backups will be cheaper than coal. That's absolutely something you can run the entire grid off of. You can balance storage requirements with excess production capacity that gets shuttered over the summer etc etc

It is my understanding that the fundamental architecture (the general purpose transformer) is identical between the "AI" used by Black Rock and by OpenAI

If you have some evidence to the contrary I'd always appreciate the chance to learn.

But the transformer based architecture is fundamentally flawed: it will always hallucinate.

The "AI" being used by big corporations is still fundamentally an LLM and has all the flaws of an LLM. It's not a hot wheels car vs a tank, it's a hot wheels car vs a $2 billion RC car
