  • Skip Articles That Use Words Like Performant

    Updated at Jan 22 2024 at the 14th hour

    I have a strong opinion about stupid marketing words. If you use imaginary words, I skip your article, software or whatever. Definitely will make sure to replace your software for adding vague words.

    Do better, be clear and use "high performance" or "average performance"

    Written in 2023 and now its 2024. Still skipping articles that use PERFORMANT as a word. I just tune out knowing the article is just marketing drivel.

  • Social Network/Media Services Can Not Substitute For News Services

    Especially for Investigative journalism and war coverage.

    Did Twitter break the story on George Santos? Fuck no.

    Some might say "legacy news writes about posts with lag time". Isn't it a shock that with the kind of reach and trust that a news outlet has that they'd want to attempt verification first rather than repeat potential BS by bots? News outlets aggregate sources and attempt to broadcast an article or story.

    I read this article (https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-hardcore-twitter-culture-inspires-fellow-tech-founders-2022-12) that talked about people who call themselves founders looking up to Musk. Lol, imagine that being a SHEEP "founder" instead of being someone who leads own their own terms given every company has a different set of input and output parameters.

    If "founders" or "investors" have been waiting for someone to push back on "cushy conditions" as Bill Gurley said then I'd say you've already f...

    With Elon Musk doing stupid shit with Twitter, I've decided to move up the timeline for Dayolog. The next generation social discussion software. The mission is to bring stability and control of forums, communities small and large back to users as well as giving them an actual town square without the overbearing central overlord moderator. This is combined with my initial desire to bring comments back to websites and the details of how will be more clear soon. I have high motivation and really great ideas on...

    Les is mor and tell a story. The core of a good presentation.

    I get annoyed at too much information in presentations. Use links or keywords to direct people to more information.

    I also get annoyed at long presentations.

  • Websites Removing their Comments Section Just Pushes Discussions to Twitter and Facebook.

    Still seeing websites remove their comments section because the promises of increased engagement can no longer materialize with Twitter and FB. Hard to engage when your comments section is filled with rabid insane idiots. I wouldn't be surprised if dumpster fire comments section turns people off from the website. So engagement is low and moderation is expensive therefore a comments section is not worth it.

    If you want to comment on an article, now you'll have to go to another website to see if someone else c...

    Good step in the right direction in ending the fetish for treating police like they are a royal class. Now if this were to end for police nation wide, I think we'd have more competent policing where cops take training seriously, police each other and their watchers and auditors do their job in holding shitty cops accountable.

    Until then, fuck blue lives matter and the system that desires to pretend that cops can do no ill will.

    https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8722346/

    The premise of the movie is captivating. A kind of black Bonnie and Clyde situation where they are on the run from cops who try to turn the story on them. A black woman gets shot by a cop during a typical prejudiced traffic stop and it is recorded on dash cam and the black man scuffling with the cop kills em.

    Character development was ehhh typical. Didn't see anything that grabbed me about the characters. It developed into a romance movie than anything else which turned m...
