You’re right. Narcissists are generally very concerned with what other people think - specifically about them.
I believe the memo is saying meta will benefit in the end because they can utilise community innovation already built in their own architecture
A few thoughts:
As others have said comparison is the thief of joy. It’s also not a very useful motivator. Feeling a bit better off than someone else isn’t going to push you to work all night when it’s required. That motivation is going to have to come from an intrinsic place - some well of meaning that has significance for you.
I’ve had the chance to study a little philosophy in pursuit of my profession and having a foundational system of thought - or several to compare - from which to approach decision making has helped me to determine my path and give meaning to my time alive.
If you’re trying to do anything difficult, doing it alone is courting failure. Find other people doing similar things and figure out how you can help them out. Equally, if you want to learn something you’ll have a much easier time if you find a teacher.
Well stated thank you
Fair, but then there’s a line between scraping through ordinary traffic and using API access to gather large data sets.
Seems like it would quickly become a bit of an arms race with measures and counter measures unless some legislation went into effect
Help me to understand what this means. Something to do with blocking specific sets of ips?
I understand the why, I understand nothing about that list of instances or what it means. Is it a lot? A little? How do they link up? It’s just a list of what may as well be nonsense to me.
Volume of users is everything here. Picking up enough share grants you a tremendous gravity as a social service. Once a service has network effect on their side it takes an extraordinary amount to unseat them - and Instagram users will pad the numbers at first but who knows if they will engage. Fedi users are demonstrably early adopters willing to put up with a new service’s teething issues. If meta can plug in and grab them it’s a big win.
I don’t think fedi is currently competing with any meta property? This is an opportunistic land grab from meta aiming to capitalise on twitter’s weakness. Fedi offers them a ready made protocol tested at scale.
I wish that link helped explain anything at all about the information it displays
Completely agree that this is where the really exciting potential is, but equally a potential for misuse as algo development will be a black box to most.
Has been in earnest since about 2014 by my watch
