The AMA with u/spez has started. Get your popcorn ready. It’s already been a good start

”Meta will be…”

NO!!!!

Federated is the way that Reddit needed to go, so the transition from Reddit to Lemmy is just what we needed. Now, whoever wants to create a community and moderate it according to their own rules can do so.

I don’t think so…

It’s a good analogy for how accounts are created, but the analogy breaks down when considering what happens when you send an email. When you send an email, you send it to specific people on specific domains. With the Fediverse, you post it to your domain, and anyone who wants to take a look, can.

I created an Obsidian community. Obsidian is my life now after adopting it as my Personal Knowledge Management System several months ago

Getting in early to prove my dedication

This must’ve been at Tesco, since Every Penny Counts

I like that it’s still so small. None of this karma farming just diluting from high quality content and conversations

Oh, I wasn’t stating that as fact, or ever intending to. The fact of the matter though is that more than 90% of car accidents are caused by human error. If we can eliminate the human error, then we’ll have far fewer people hurt on the roads, even though that means that self-driving cars are going to hurt people. This is merely my point, that we can’t expect self-driving cars to have 0 accidents, but once the tech is good enough (and I acknowledge that it’s not even close yet), we need to be ok with that hard truth.

I’m failing to see how this is really any different from either Twitter or Reddit, where you would be expected to post some relevant information along with a URL

Yeah, this article is ridiculous. Self-driving cars are FAR safer than human drivers. The number of accidents is minuscule compared to what would be expected if the automated features were absent.

We run the real risk of screwing this up if people insist on an automated car never causing a crash, or never hurting anyone. Even if they hurt someone, the point is that it harmed maybe 0.1% of the people that would have been hurt in traditional vehicles.

”Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good”

I created shortcuts and added those to my home screen. That way, if I quickly want to add a new task, or jot down a note, it’s but one press away.

Agreed! Reddit was just becoming a karma farming center. Honestly, it’s been nice to burn it all to the ground and start over

It’s changed my life. Everything goes into Obsidian now.
