Same here - simply cannot fix it, and it's somewhat annoying that it talks about Yubikeys when I'm only using on-device security keys instead. Must be very confusing for many others!

I've been self-hosting a Unifi controller (now called 'Unifi Network') for years in a Docker container, and before that I'd run it on a Windows machine whenever I needed to make changes to the configuration - I assume this pivot to call the self-hosted version 'UniFi OS' implies a future where more than just the Network application can be self-hosted.

A genuine confusion for me - as a visual artist - about how two things can be true: this can be a great love letter to such an iconic and brilliant song, and also why generative AI was used to create accompanying imagery in this article. I don't see how an piece about the 'joys of music production' - aka, creativity - should also actively be anti-creative. To me, those two thoughts seem completely opposing.

At $50 a year (equates to $4 a month if paid annually), this is - albeit a subscription model - so much better than Adobe's £20 a month plan for just Premiere (obviously to get you to go for the £50 a month plan). It's a much better plan and I hope things like this make Adobe consider their costs. It's a big ask and I know they won't... but you can hope.

If its that important to your grade, could you not shell out for the paid service until your project is completed? I'm assuming this is a semester project of some kind, and probably not terribly high-traffic, so it shouldn't be too expensive. I know it sounds like giving into extortion because it more or less is, but at 40% it sounds like a serious chunk of your grade that it might be worthwhile if you factor in the cost of learning to not rely on someone else's charity.

The last part isn't meant to chastise you. Twitter's API has long been free to access so it wasn't unreasonable to assume it would be so. But it has been true pretty much forever that you should not rely on someone else's goodwill and charity for a critical part of your project or business.

(None of this is to say that this change isn't being badly managed, just that I think you still have options here, despite being somewhat unpleasant.)

Agreed, I'll be waiting for more information - but it's even more mad that I have to wait until 'next week' for that, a mere handful of days before the shut off date as well.

> Google Classroom has a lot of users in the ed tech space.

As a parent of a kid with ADHD and a Chromebook, I'm appalled at how wide open access to everything on the Internet is on Chromebooks. Trying to keep him on track when there's the constant temptation and ability to alt-tab over to YouTube means my wife and I have to be ever vigilant that he's actually working.

No, his ADHD isn't Google's fault, but they're designing and deploying tools for lots of kids who have impulse control issues.

I'd argue that's not really something Google have wrong - parental/education control blockers aren't few and far between.

Is there some specific advantage gained irl by hugging the wall like this? I can’t tell from the video what he achieved by it.
dan_pixelflow · 3 years ago
It was the last corner of the last lap - hugging the wall damages your car but because he didn't actually need to tap the brakes he just kept on going, round the wall faster than the others.

I assumed this was the UK, because our rail network is the 'National Rail' network. Could the fact it's the US be added to the title?

Edit: It's not just the US (!) Maybe a 'North American rail network map'?
