       If there's anybody out there running a large (*) Mastodon server and needs help/advice scaling, hit me up and I'll help if I can. Please contact on Twitter or LinkedIn as well as here. I'm not confident in my notification settings. Feel free to RT (I guess that's reToot) for reach.(*) I.e. if you're just struggling to get one running for you and your buddies, that's not what I mean. But if you're suffering from thousands of new users driving up load, I might be able to help. I've dealt with one or two scaling issues in my time...

       @boilingsteam @fribbledom I worked in computer graphics in the late 80s/early 90s. We called that anti-aliasing through NTSC video.

       @simon Do you follow Emily Bender or Gary Marcus? They both have interesting things to say on why it's not possible.

       @simon I'm surprised that the map doesn't surround the array manipulation. I would have interpreted what you have as producing just a single item. Clearly need to brush up on my jq!

       @grammargirl When I was in eighth grade, our social studies teacher showed us old footage of two films made during a protracted strike, like from the 50s. One was made by the company and used actors and one was made by the union and interviewed the workers, though we didn't know the difference when we watched. At the end, we were asked our opinions.I, like most of the other kids raised my hand for "the company film was more believable." The teacher asked me why I thought that, and I said something about people being more confident or whatever.He looked me straight in the eye and said, "Exactly! That's why they used actors. The other film was regular people trying to tell their stories."That has remained with me for almost 40 years now.

       @simon @zkat When I set up my wife's business site I figured it would be simpler to just go with Domains since we were doing Workspace for email, etc.I guess I'll move her over to Gandi with the rest of my stuff.

       @tek when I came across this, I did a double take. At first I thought it was a video of my dog!
