I saw this too and thought it was amazing! However I also read in response (lost the link) that the real endgame isn't "replace knowledge workers with AI", the real endgame is "use AI as a pretense to fire knowledge workers, then hire overseas workers back in their place for 1/3 the cost"

I don't think it's that far fetched to imagine that Trump truly believes what he told his followers to believe: China pays the tariffs. And no one has had the guts to explain the truth to him yet.

A text adventure game reminiscent of an old green text terminal. The title reads "DADA QUEST System Version 1.0.0". There is a large main area with a prompt and a text box underneath for the player to enter a response. The player is currently on Turn 0 and has 5 points. There are also various icons visible. The prompt reads: "You stand in a cluttered attic above an old shop. Dusty trunks and shelves overflow with strange trinkets-maps, masks, and jars whose contents you can’t quite make out. A trapdoor creaks slightly in the floorboards. What would you like to do?"

My wife started DADA QUEST in a “dimly lit room”… 20 minutes later she was a spy on an assassination mission. Or maybe you'd like to explore the secrets of the Crenshaw Library? That’s the promise, chaos, and sometimes surreal whimsy of this retro text adventure with an AI game master.

I found this diary at the Alemany floral market, it’s full. It’s one year in the life of a teenager (I think she’s 15 or so) from 1971 in the Bay Area. It’s fascinating, gripping and I’m wondering if I can get back to the family? I can’t find anything about her

Hi, my name is Salavatore Monella and you're gonna love my new line of rotisserie chickens, Sal Monella's Chicken!

PyPy (pie pie) != PyPI (pie pea eye)

Nobody forced us to do this. We did this to ourselves.

Just want to point out that while I assumed "PSF" was "Python Software Foundation", the first few paragraphs of your post, and the wiki page linked to (to PSF Conduct WG) define neither the acronym "PSF" or "WG". It would probably be more inclusive and useful to define these terms.

Sequoia Fabrica - Open Collective A 501c3 nonprofit community workshop for makers, designers, artists and craftspeople in San Francisco's Potrero Hill neighborhood.

I've just contributed to Sequoia Fabrica. Consider supporting them too — every little helps! opencollective.com/sequoia-fabr...

Also note that the devs state in this thread (github.com/bluesky-soci...) that the rate limit is not supposed to be user facing, in the sense that it shouldn't limit normal/human activity, only abuse.

I don't use the Bluesky API, but I think it would be something along the lines of reading a header like "X-RateLimit-something" that tells you how many requests you have remaining in the next N seconds/minutes. You would have to refer to the Bluesky docs.

Well, I guess this is goodbye to Twitter then.

Get ready to push your soundcloud, this blueskee is going to blow up!

Here's an actual attempt at an answer. The short answer is, it shouldn't because it only affected a small portion of the API.

The longer answer is, a rate limit is when an API says you can't do something more than N times per X. The good thing is that they are also returning what the limit is now.

This Labor Day, Walmart would like to celebrate the ones who work tirelessly to make everything we do possible:

Thank you to the Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines and Coast Guard! Support our troops this Labor Day!

Just got mine! Thanks so much!

I feel like I got greedy with claiming a bluesky invitation. I've been trying to get my wife to delete Twitter but she's hesitant, and I think I should have given my invite to her because from what I can tell, this place is exactly a Twitter clone. Not judging just saying.

Today I opened my phone and there was a big ugly "X" on the home screen. I deleted and uninstalled whatever app that was.

New user, time for an #introduction post. I can already tell I'm doing it wrong because I guess hashtags don't exist here? Sigh.
