Just another Lemmy user, and also an idiot who accidentally wiped his Lemmy instance not once but twice. Oh well, third time's the charm.

  • The decentralized web is growing

  • Its also getting the content creators onto the new platform. Thats a bigger challenge I think, without creators it's a dead site really, and making videos is significantly more difficult than image or text posting.

    For storage, if we assume the format would be WebM at 1080p, 60fps and 20 minutes in length, it turns out to about 1GB. Even a cheap VPS instance usually offer 50GB of storage (with not too expensive storage upgrades).

    So if its distributed evenly, we can host a good bit of videos (nothing compared to YouTube though).

  • Bell curve of text editors

  • Agreed.

    I once worked on a team in a company who had to ssh into a server and do all the development work on that server. So all we could use was either vim or emacs. I had my vim decked out with all the plugins and customizations, and it was fine.

    But after you get back to using an IDE (especially an IDE with a vim plugin), it's hard to go back

  • How is this different to ActivityPub protocol that the fediverse uses? Seems like its trying to accomplish very similar things? Like how KBin and Lemmy can interact with the same content and have different layouts, apps, etc.

    I suppose it's good to have alternative protocols for decentralized communication, but wouldn't it be better to focus on one and put more effort into improving it?

  • I hope I put the correct amount of eyes on in the morning.

  • You're telling me people don't have tactical barbecue sauce bottles strategically placed around their house for easy access for when you're eating ribs and need a little extra sauce?

  • What can a senior desktop support tech do who is burned out?

    Jump

  • Yep, correct

    Different companies have different requirements, but generally if you know a bit of SQL and a bit of Linux terminal commands you should be good. Maybe have a browse through a testing framework like Selenium, though frameworks would vary depending on what the company does, so don't fret too much about that.

  • QA work has a fairly low barrier of entry, and from there I've known a few people who moved from QA into Developer roles. So there's that route.

  • They are very similar. The main differences are:

    • LogSeq uses bullet points. Obsidian is just pure markdown
    • LogSeq is open source. Obsidian is closed source
    • LogSeq has a predefined structure to it (folders). Obsidian allows you to have whatever folders you want

    Personally, I use LogSeq for my day to day work. Primarily because I prefer the bullet point approach when taking notes. But some people would prefer writing long continuous text with Obsidian.

    So to each their own. If you're interested, try both (they're both using markdown, so you can transfer between the two). I went back and forth a few times before settling with LogSeq
