I think PC is proposing using the natural time zone, and adjusting hours if you need sunlight to operate. Summer time is awful because different latitudes have different hours of sunlight, yet all are forced to the least common denominator.
Cities closer to the poles might want to adjust more than one hour, or none at all since they see little sunlight for months anyway. Cities near the equator might not need to adjust at all. Businesses that need to be synchronized could still coordinate their operating hours. It's the most natural approach is DST had never existed.
Nostr is attractive as another decentralized social network, but crypto has tainted it so much that you can't dissociate the two, and that is not attractive at all.
To me ATProto has not proven yet to be really distributed / decentralized.
In terms of "censorship resistant" you can also think of a 100% uptime of your code / work (your repository). Or always available for anyone with a internet connection.
In the context of a federated network (aka fediverse), that's often not the case (if a federated instance is unavailable, many assets will be missing leading to a unuseable application or service).
After reading https://radicle.xyz/guides/protocol my first impression it's the same as how it works with Nostr with one key difference in the conceptual model. Nostr uses relays to distribute the data and Radicle is using a gossip model to distribute the data peer-to-peer (the bittorrent model).
They do explain the difference with a federated model. I miss the explainer compared to a relay model.
What crypto? Cryptocurrency or cryptography? This first one is optional to be used with the protocol. The second not (see NIP-01 https://nips.nostr.com/1).
I was curious so I researched a bit (read their landing page). I don't understand what you mean. It doesn't use cryptocurrencies, except as a way to tip others' content. Or, did you mean that you find the use of cryptography unattractive? That would be such a strange statement. Cryptocurrencies pioneered some awesome technology: I would think it a shame to avoid it just because of some cryptobros.
> Nostr uses the same cryptographic principles of Bitcoin and was kickstarted mostly by a community of Bitcoiners, so it has disproportionately attracted the attention of Bitcoiners at the start, but aside from that it doesn't have any relationship with Bitcoin. It doesn't depend on Bitcoin for anything and you don't have to know or have or care about any Bitcoin in order to use Nostr.

> What about "zaps"? Zaps are a standard for tipping Nostr content using Bitcoin that is implemented by some Nostr clients, but it's fully and completely optional and if you don't care about Bitcoin you don't have to bother about it.
The Universe seems vast, unimaginably immense for our meat minds to really grasp, and yet I can't shake the feeling that the Big Bang could have been an insignificant leftover of some even vaster phenomena.
Sure. I wasn’t trying to say that Apple made WebKit from scratch, merely that they developed it into something easily embeddable. That very much was novel at the time.
I disabled browser.ml.enable and local translation was still working. In my case, that's all I need, but it looks like it still allows on-device transformers.
I'm very pleased that disabling browser.ml.enable doesn't disable local translation. I don't need a dedicated UI for chat bots, but I find local translation very useful.
Dictators, like Maduro (and wannabe dictators), are notoriously coward. They won't risk their life against an enemy that will certainly bomb them from afar, but they would happily risk their whole country if that kept them safe.
Hell, even Trump wouldn't be that bold if he didn't know Venezuela has no will, or means, of putting him at risk.
According to his Wikipedia page, his downfall was the loss of the capital island of the Falkland islands. He was a true military dictator, abuses and all, but he might have understood that losing the Malvinas would be the end of his regime.
In that case, going against UK in an unwinnable war was a way to preserve his regime, as long as no bombings were made targeting him, so he could still protect his life. UK is not as ruthless in war as, say, USA or Israel, IMO that was a calculated risk to prolong the end.
You keep using that word, but it doesn't mean what you want it to.
Renovation is as your interlocutor says, a restoration. Remodeling is what is happening there, tearing apart something and putting something new in its place. It's a more drastic and expensive work.
Fine, remodeling. The specific word is not finally the point. Incessant semantic pedantry doesn't change the fact that Trump is not destroying the White House.
Most people understand that any sort of "remodeling" or "renovation" often requires some demolition first.
And I get your point, but that is a crucial distinction when you're talking about historical buildings. If said ballroom was simply an extension, no one would complain about the placement.
> Incessant semantic pedantry doesn't change the fact that Trump is not destroying the White House.
Incessant semantic pedantry? You mean like stridently defending that Trump is not destroying the White House, in response to a comment that didn’t claim that Trump was destroying the White House?
Let's give the benefit of the doubt to the person who blatantly lies, and repeatedly has shown contempt for the law. We gotta be fair even if he and their cohorts aren't, right?
