de6u99er commented on Scientists No Longer Find X Professionally Useful, and Have Switched to Bluesky   academic.oup.com/icb/adva... · Posted by u/sebg

I registered a Bluesky account not too long ago and noticed shortly after a regular appearance of gay and furry nsfw content. The NSFW setting was turned off, so these accounts are for whatever reason neglecting to tag their content properly.

Telling Bluesky that I'm not interested in "this type of content" didn't help remove the problem. Blocking/Reporting the accounts is futile, as they are so numerous. Moderation lists for LGBT/furry content seem to be nonexistent or unlisted from public modlist sites (maybe they are considered to be "homophobic"?)

Anyway, Bluesky does't seem to be safe-for-work, so it's hardly a proper replacement for Twitter. If this is fixed, then that would be good.

Since I started reporting them ad "Unwanted sexual content" I am seeing significantly less half naked persons desperately begging for sttention. But there's still the issue of all the comic and manga crap labeled as art. Bluesky needs to correctly identify and relabel those as comics and manga.

Would be nice if others would report them too, because there are kids on BlueSky and they don't need to see their uncles/aunts or neighbors sticking their butt into a camera.

It's solved, full write-up here: https://www.reddit.com/r/MinecraftUnlimited/comments/1cvo5py...

Tl:dr; It was a release file for their Minecon event. It was never meant to be public. Obsessing over a password protected in a company's S3 bucket is weird and crosses many limits.

Ouch

SQL shows it's age by having exactly the same problem.

Queries should start by the `FROM` clause, that way which entities are involved can be quickly resolved and a smart editor can aid you in writing a sensible query faster.

The order should be FROM -> SELECT -> WHERE, since SELECT commonly gives names to columns, which WHERE will reference.

You could even avoid crap like `SELECT * FROM table`, and just write `FROM table` and have the select clause implied.

Never mind me, I'm just an old man with a grudge, I'll go back to my cave...

You can always start with the FROM clause and then add the SELECT clause above it if it's a out auto-,completion.

I usually start with: ``` select * from <table> as <alias> limit 5 ```

That's great. How does Whisper compare to Google Gemini's transcription capabilities?

Thank you for sharing! This is one of the coolest articles I have seen in a while on HN. I did some searches and I think the search results looked very useful so far. I particularly loved about your article that most of the questions I had while reading got answered in a most structured way.

I still have questions:

* How long do you plan to keep the live demo up?

* Are you planning to make the source code public?

* How many hours in total did you invest into this "hobby project" in the two months you mentioned in your write-up?

Isn't this just a tax which Chinese customers will end up paying for?
de6u99er · 15 days ago
It's a tax which American companies are paying. You are asking if they will forward it to their Chinese customers.

Pay phones might become a thing again, with governments pushing to end of E2E communication.
