In your experience/career, what were some things that you have taken note of from various managers/leaders, that made you feel comfortable working there and providing solutions for the organization as a whole?

When questioning your intentions as arrogant, entitled, immature vs confident, moral right, correctness. Or even questioning if the Duning Kruger effect is at play.

What process do you incorporate to back-up your self-judgement or in identifying your decisions/choices are in-fact "correct" in online discussions and/or personal life with friends/family.

How do you remove "self-doubt"?

Yeah noticed it too. For some of them. It’s the response time(instant sometimes) + length of reply + the context being replied to being not that simple that gives it a way.

Bowling Alleys (some), late night museum tours, late night roller skating.

They all have exposure to alcohol still. But can be enjoyed sober.

Instead of complaining about the public educational system. How to improve on existing methods to spread ideas of curiosity and learning methods/mechanisms through FOSS means.

I feel it's a good idea for those building native clients for Lemmy implement projects like these to run offline inferences on feed content for the time-being. To cover content that are not marked NSFW and should be.

What does everyone think, about enforcing further censorship, especially in open-source clients, on the client side as long as it pertains to this type of content?

Edit:

There's also this, but it takes a bit more effort to implement properly. And provides a hash that can be used for reporting needs. https://github.com/AsuharietYgvar/AppleNeuralHash2ONNX .

I'd like to share the TestFlight in this community with a possible listing on other resources for Lemmy federated clients that are being actively supported.

Testflight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/owwIagmV

Feel free to use the https://lemmy.world/c/loom community to post concerns, suggestions, bugs, and I will tend to them promptly!

macOS clients are always released via Github as notarized archives. Or, you could build it locally on your own.

Known Issues:

  • Scrolling stutter
  • Registration is not functional
  • macOS (intel) optimizations
    • I do not have an M-chip, so may be missing more macOS related bugs that need to be fixed

List of some major features are below:

Looking for a good README editor. With maybe git functionality, but not necessary

  • Like adding shields/badges/assets within automatically

  • managing a directory like structure by generating new MD files in a directory like folder structure.

Essentially an IDE like environment just for markdown file management and a WYSIWYG editing experience

Accessing a url with .local or 127.0 in the domain seems to be requesting this access. I have disabled setting such urls. This is just for the Testflight. Otherwise you can build the iOS/macOS client locally and allow for localhost access

Another area this can occur is in Search. I am still investigating why/how a request can push this modal through.

I have tested the API endpoint with local as a query since posts can either be federated, local or subscribed for instance, but that wasn't causing it.

I am prepping a larger overview to cover all the changes made in v1.0.3b, but it is kinda late and still would like to share a quick update.

I feel very satisfied with how all of the underlying packages supporting Loom have gained lots of needed robustness all around. I view this to be close to the real beta. Probably should have called v1-1.0.3b Alpha.

This week, expect lots of refinements that will be much more consumer facing/front-end.

Details:

iPad and macOS versions will be ready by v1.0.4b (2). Still some things need to be revised.

Community info view (which triggers subscribe) will be functional again in v1.0.4b(2). It is inactive for this version.

  • Share screen shots of comments and posts, auto-generated
  • Slideable menu on the main feed
  • Keyboard toolbar for quick markdown shortcuts and other quality of life needs. A great little feature to keep adding to in the future.
  • Improve speed of modals appearing and navigation overall
    • Granite has been updated with a custom navigation stack. I am working on documentation to help share how to utilize this for your own applications. When working with multiple form factors and or client types (iPad/iPhone/mac) I found this solution I incorporated to be simple and powerful.
  • Names of Looms are editable again
  • Content actions revised and hooked (there's many ways to do things, so I am still making sure I get them all)
    • Edit
    • Viewing Post content
    • Block (Feed)
    • Share
    • (There are others being worked on or checked for completion, like Report)
  • Fixed image uploading, compression occurs prior. This will be customizable in a future update. It is currently targeting 100kb.
  • Lots of nitpick adjustments to design overall

Major Known Issues:

  • Login and Add Account modals dismiss prematurely. Essentially one won’t be able to login.
  • Endless spiral for loading collections of any kind, feed, community listing, post content. Simply refresh to fix it. The issue is known, just haven’t resolved yet.

Lot's more to cover. Wanted to get this build out and start the v1.0.4b journey, as I felt the quality has increased by quite a bit since the initial v1.0.3b.

v1.0.3b (build 13)

What’s New

  • UX changes for the Loom UI + Creating Posts
  • Setting custom Instance URLs
  • Editing posts/comments (only when viewing posts or within profile)

macOS build will be available soon. iPad-specific optimizations will be addressed in (build 14)

Changes

Loom UI Moved
Image The Loom interface moved to the view that was meant for composing posts. Creating posts has been moved to a modal format, triggered by the Loom logo button on the front page. Essentially switching spots.
Set Instance URL
Image Tap the “Front Page” header view text and/or the domain above it, to trigger the set instance url Modal.
  • You can now edit posts and/or comments when viewing a post or in your profile.

  • UX / design tweaks and nitpicks in various places

  • Further optimizations around state updates, bookmark component performance when switching tabs and settings component’s ability to update profile settings when logged in.

The next major update will be set for Friday and the same cadence will be applied for major updates per Friday.

Expect smaller updates throughout the week to focus on various bugs and improving performance on all platforms, macOS + iPad especially.

I will primarily use the Changelog to communicate update details.

Secondary Changelog: https://neatia.xyz/post/281

New post updates will only be made if there are Major feature changes/entirely new features outside of the current feature-set. Major feature changes means, entirely new flows to execute an existing feature.

Known Issues:

  • community list syncing on macOS
  • certain micro-interactions
  • localization of lots of recently added strings

The last major feature for the "base functionality" build, is mod view. This will turn the interface into a "Mod Mode" where actions on posts/comments/persons/communities will have an additional control panel to apply mod actions. The date of this to be completed, is undecided as I'd like to review the performance around all of the base functionalities again this week.

Registration/uploading JPGs or HEICs is a bit finicky, this will be looked at this week as well.


When it comes to features outside of the "Base Scope". I am excited to get to this feature that has been on the GitHub for some time, Engravings. This will allow people to "invisibly watermark" their content. Allowing you to verify what content is yours. There are other applications of it, I'd like to experiment with such as creating shareable cards of a user's community, loom, profile, etc.

Ah yes, you have reached the Loom. The hidden gateway into the threadiverse. One must strum the threads to the ballad of federation to find the hidden nymph, Lemmy. Guiding one towards the oasis of

And Creative Commons. And SOPA. And WIkiLeaks. He was an Open Access civil servant in its true form.

[-] pexavc@lemmy.world 74 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Back when "reddit.com" was a subreddit. I remember the thread (you can still visit it today) regarding his early departure. And how Aaron and spez didn't really want to disclose the "real reason". But, it saddens me how the public viewed his contributions as complete nil in result of no full disclosure (Aaron did simply state corporate life (post acq.) was not for him, but everyone says that).

Especially during times like this when the same batch of Aaron's year (Altman, Huffman, etc) are pushing closed source thoughts. We need Open Access civics, like Aaron again.

[-] pexavc@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

I don't understand the reason behind this. The consistency is all over the place behind the brand. Is this a lead-in into a larger idea? that will "connect all the dots". Or are these literally off the cuff changes? The creator payout for ads, seems like the only positive update that made sense recently, along with subscriptions, although those didn't really seem to affect the smaller accounts with <100k followers etc.

[-] pexavc@lemmy.world 25 points 1 year ago

As the internet becomes more available, mass adoption leads to communities that are very unbalanced. And, more often than not, leaning towards personas we tend to avoid in real life. Reason being, the barrier to entry is not as high. Curiosity is a byproduct of education/environment and lead people to apply resourcefulness to uncover sites/forums/messageboards with like minded people. Yes, echochambers in a way, but these echo chambers were not driven by political beliefs, but rather simple mannerisms and etiquette. Toxicity on sites like Youtube, Reddit, Threads, Twitter, have increased, because Curiosity didn't drive discovery/account creation, ads or fomo did instead. Mastodon/Lemmy (Fediverse) communities, in my opinion, are still driven by curiosity. For how long, is the question I'd like to impose.

EEE, Embrace, Extend, Extinguish. Meta may very well be embracing federation concepts to eventually return back to their former selves.
