  • A NEW YORK LA SPERANZA HA VINTO SULLA RABBIA

    @news
    Finito il clamore e ammortizzata la sorpresa, dovremmo lasciar spazio alla riflessione ed esaminare quel che è successo nella Grande Mela per trarne qualche insegnamento.

    > The recent introduction of generative AI means that we no longer have any control over how big tech companies are using our information

    Yeah, automated web spidering and page scraping has totally never been done before, and search engines have definitely never been cataloging and indexing and running analytics etc... until The AI came along and blah blah blah.

    This is not the problem. Anyone who thinks that they ever had control over the content they placed online needs to wake up. Us old folks here may remember submitting our sites to search index queues, wanting our data to be spread across the internet for others (inc the search engines) to see and use and inspire.

    But sure, blame The Algorithms (nevermind, this buzzword is from the last decade, now everyone blames AI like it's a monolithic problem (similar to the "fuck cars" lunatic fringe who ignore the facts).

    People's illiberal policies and the flawed expectations on the content "owner's" side ... Those are the problem. Stop treating things like a monolithic issue and maybe look at the flawed expectations before blaming whatever buzzword is popular.

  • @JdeBP @tj @wild1145 Personally, I've updated frequently and never encountered major problems - at least none that couldn't be resolved with a little analysis. The Mastodon update process is generally reliable. In my view, losing a whole day's worth of data implies either poor planning of the operation or a significant dose of bad luck.
    Before any major update, I take a full snapshot of everything, ready to restore it if something goes sideways. The trouble often stems from the fact that installing and subsequently updating "complex" projects like Mastodon is done in a semi-automated way, perhaps using Docker. This creates an abstraction layer over your actual setup and, consequently, leaves you with little control over what's happening under the hood.

    In fairness, looking (from the outside) at the upgrade experiences of a number of nodes where I have accounts, the latest of which was an aborted 4.4 to 4.5 upgrade on one node (not this one) that lost a day's worth of data, I think that we can put this down to the general nature of the Mastodon upgrade process rather than the platform that it runs on.

    Mind you, I have yet to hear of a large complex WWW-involved system with SQL-back ends where upgrades are *not* fraught with pitfalls. (-:

    Hey, #cooking people! The pumpkin muffins came out okayish - I used @darth_hideout 's recipe for the pumpkin spice and it was excellent - but I feel they could use more workshopping.Two issues:1) They kinda didn't ever seem to be done, so we gave up and ate them still kind of mushy inside. We exceeded the indicated time baking by like 20 minutes (though with multiple oven door openings to check). Now, these are not conventional muffins, which is one reason why we were baking them and not just buying them. The ingredients were 2 cups rolled oats; 1 cup pumpkin puree; 1 cup milk; 1/3 cup maple syrup; 2 eggs; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice; 1 teaspoon baking soda; ¼ teaspoon salt. So this wasn't going to have a normal texture. But still, I think they were supposed to wind up more consistently...cooked. Unlike the original instructions, we didn't pour the batter directly into greased tins; we used cupcake papers in disposable aluminum muffin tins. Did this affect the cooking time? AFAIK, the oven is very reasonably calibrated, and we haven't had any trouble baking anything else. Not sure what else could have caused this. Open to suggestions.2) They came out too healthy tasting. Mr Bostoniensis is threatening to just slather the next batch with canned frosting, but I think that will overwhelm the pumpkin spice flavor. I think they would be improved by some sort of crunchy sugary cinnamony topping, maybe with chopped pecans. Does anybody have a recipe for something like that? Low effort/high ease counts for a lot here because, well, it's competing with just buying canned frosting.

    @mynameistillian the first time or two I get my hands on them each season I just wash them, put them in the oven at 180°C and cook them until they are soft when poked with a fork, and then eat them as is, enjoying the taste I had missed for the rest of the year.this last time I had a bit of a leftover, and I've cut one of the baked sweet potatoes in cubes, dropped them in hot dashi (kombu-only) stock with a bit of wakame, heated the think for a couple of minutes more and then added miso, and I think it was even better than my usual quick miso soup with regular potatoes and wakame (they were the white variety of sweet potatoes, not the orange one)
