  • I work in a company with other people. it’s not a good idea to have an idea where you have to specialise in a range of things to be successful. I specialise in programming.

    also, those benchmarks translate to better user experience which means they actually use our product, and lower hosting costs.

    frameworks and patterns reduce bugs and let us create features quickly. it’s important, if you think it’s pointless maybe it’s not for you. if you want to go do a startup instead, good luck.






  • I can’t find anything like what you’re describing - my instance has a legal notice which is just a disclaimer saying they can’t be held liable, lemmy.world has a fair use and terms of service which are 404s and their privacy policy just says they won’t sell your data (but might use it for internal research) - can you tell me what you mean?

    if they run a mastodon instance, you’d be federating with them just as much.

    are you sure these comments are somehow protected by copyright and they can’t use them? when I post publicly like this I have no expectation of control over use.I’d be very surprised if I could somehow sue a company using this comment to train AIs.

    I’d also be surprised if that status changed somehow if the server was then connected to threads?

    they can already download what people are sharing. that’s not what this is about.

    if they want to train AIs on your data they can scrap it from the regular feed without any integration. If they needed federation to do it they could just set up a mastodon instance to grab the data - but they don’t.








  • I played it cool for an entire uber ride home at 7am and walked inside feeling like I’d totally gotten away with it.

    Went to brush my teeth, looked in the mirror and and remembered there was a facepainter at the event and I looked like Ziggy Stardust.
