Easy read but indeed. That's what I read the article for. I'm very happy with Photoprism but the box is not always on and I'd like to keep a cached set of photos on my phone while also having automatic (multi-user) sync whenever the box is available..

Why not use the POW to help cover the costs? Mine an actual coin (Annubis Coin?) and pay for anonymous infra access with it (or log in and get a certain quota for free)?

Yup. My last one took a rather quick end when a tiny bit of salty splash water got under the screen.. IP rating is only when it's fresh off production. Oh well, still a great phone (thanks to GrapheneOS)

Cool, I like the esp idea but won't you have to walk fairly slowly with a default ESP antenna? High gain might be better.. If you're wearing a cap you may not care as much being seem from above vs from the front. Maybe attach a little windspeed meter to the top of the antenna on your hat too ;)

Honestly I find ChatGPT's voice mode much more annoying with its errrm, yeah, I think, no wait, let me think, yeah... [Actual content]

Not to be overly intensive but people "demand" rectification between rich and poor because they don't see that they have all the tools they need or they want a shortcut to smart/hard work and risk - the US, EU and many other parts of the world where societal discrimination is virtually none compared to previous generations give you what you need. I agree with you in the sense that, life never feels just, grass is always greener on the other side, etc.. Bit it's those that rise to a challenge and stop demanding, make a plan and start doing that change their fate. That's always been history. Check out all societies that demanded riches from "the rich" and ended up communist.. Didn't help most of them for sure. Massive redistribution of riches like high taxes never works long term and sets the wrong signals.

If machines start doing all of the work, even much or most cognitive work, then I think this has to change. Meanwhile look at Nordic countries for example. Not communist, rich, low inequality by design. They were the pioneers btw in social democracy, in which they all live. Interesting, "always been history" is actually not right, or at least, also, it's "not been pre-history" is right because early humans before and up to us as homo sapiens, did indeed from all evidence I've seen have dramatically greater social equality and sharing economies. Our current state is the less "natural" in the sense of being out of tune with our instincts.

Yes, laws are laws but one affects a branch, the other a root.

Cut off enough branches and the roots die.

Argh, that's when I wished for object oriented shells. Powershell sure isn't perfect but objects encoding their own meaning really helps differentiate those cases (but it may not always help the user if types aren't clear to the reader)

I don't think you need object orientation for that. Haskell and Rust solve these problems also just fine, without any OOP in sight.

In this specific case, the oop nature of powershell doesn't actually matter, just the fact it uses structured input instead of raw string.

It's like passing a struct to a function instead of a badly serialized representation of a value

Hmm, not sure I understand. How are those shell based?

I agree that rust and haskell are not your typical OO (or not OO at all in a traditional sense) I guess my poorly worded claim was less focused on the OO nature of psh than on the typization (which both of these also do) - if you knew what type $rev and $path are, it's easier to distinguish intent, whether objects or not.

> Hmm, not sure I understand. How are those shell based?

A shell is just a programming language that's well suited for interactive repl use. Compare https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scsh

Of course, Rust and Haskell aren't typically thought of as shells. Though if you wanted to and felt brave enough, you could use ghci as a shell.

Agreed!

With a nation this far endebted you'd think people might think it reasonable to question billions in grants.. Don't spend money you don't have is one of the best advices my parents ever gave me.

> With a nation this far endebted you'd think people might think it reasonable to question billions in grants..

One might also question the wisdom of starting yet another ongoing war, or throwing piles of money at putting a president's name everywhere it wasn't asked for, or truckloads of money "renovating" national monuments only to have to throw more money at re-doing the job because it was half-assed by an unqualified crew, or literal tens of billions at ICE (kinda sorta) doing their job worse than ever before... Guess how much money's been wasted on all that?

That argument is rolled out every time the Republicans want to cut anything, but then they don't actually balance the books. Trump is responsible for 25% of the national debt and the DOGE cuts did not move the needle at all.

Your parents didn't have the legal authority to print money. It's almost like running a household is different from running a business, is different from running a nation.

Been using GrapheneOS as daily driver for 4 years on three pixels. Problems only start when banking apps start actively sabotaging it by pretending the phone is rooted etc. Normal apps work normally and you get way more control over them. I'll never go back to stock or worse than stock (Samsung) as long as GrapheneOS is around even if they get rid of all security aspects (which of course they won't, I'm just saying security is not the only selling point, de-googling is a big one too.. I didn't de-google but I sure like having the option)
