Reroute where? Nonsense. If that was the case then the tensions wouldn’t be this high.

Got it a few years ago. In my 30s as well. God how it used to bother me, i’d have the whitest noises to the point where it depressed how loud it all was, white noise included.

Went to the doctor, did all those rounds. Once I saw the endemic existence of CBT and other psychotherapies as treatment it dawned on me that I might have to reconsider my relationship with this.

In reality I just got used to it and live with it. I have a tiny white noise sound that is always on my headphones while i work that is just enough and that covers me most of the day, but honestly even if I sit in an electric car that is fully stopped and it’s as loud as it’s gonna be, I notice it, absolutely, but it doesn’t really cause distress anymore.

I don’t think that is a an accurate depiction of ClickHouse. I don’t think they’re pivoting from their main data warehousing product at all. Probably making their cloud offering more competitive with other providers.

True that. I went to a building in SF that dedicated floor space to every adjacent field like robotics, AI, crypto, etc. Zero hacking or even cyber related space.

It made me feel kinda sad for a few days.

Have had the family plan for over a year. Worth it for me. Just so easy to customize.

agree on single instance, but for hetzner, I run 100+ large bare metal servers in hetzner, have for at least 5 years and there’s only been one significant outage they had, we do spread across all their datacenter zones and replicate, so it’s all been manageable. It’s worth it for us, very worth it.

I’ve been using “The Notioning” for the last few years to refer to the convergence of tools like slack adding notion like features, clickup adding notion and slack type features, and so on. There seems to be a stable set of features that retains teams in an org

Yeah it’s all the punchy mini paragraphs.

Just one sentence here.

Then I realized.

That another sentence came after that.

Are you saying they REMOVED functionality that was previously in place? That is indeed spiteful if so.

It does read the way you describe in your question. My interpretation of OPs example is more about the asymmetry in how much more (relatively) feasible it is for one party to re-introduce a vote for something than it is to rally political will en masse in a way that reflects what the electorate ultimately wants.

An example that comes to mind is the string of legislation like SOPA that despite having lost, the general goal continued to appear in new bills that were heavily lobbied for.

This website looks like they’re gonna tell me I can use Zapier to get whistleblowing alerts in Slack. Truly bizarre presentation.

Mark Fisher describes this as precorporation in Capitalist Realism. The idea that at a certain point capital will anticipate and ahead of time incorporate the behavior, thus absorbing it into the overall mechanism.
