I didn’t know reddit gave out the personal details of their users, but I guess I shouldn’t be surprised.
You make it sound like they have a choice, or do so freely and willingly.
The article is clear on that they don’t freely share without assessment though:
Reddit wasn’t willing to go along with the request, at least not in full. The company objected, arguing that handing over the requested information would violate its users’ right to anonymous speech.
Recent legal activity shows that Reddit doesn’t intend to automatically comply with all user information requests.

The constant need for observation and corrective corrections in politics and political institutions is exhausting.
The need and cause are very foreign to me. I work problem-solution-oriented and person-neutral-collaborative in software development. Which is a personality and environment/systematic setup thing. And which of course sadly only works in smaller teams and groups and projects; not at the scale of EU politics.
The tasks, obligations, and responsibilities of elected politicians are clear. But that alone is not enough. Which is kind of tragic.
The episode intros of Jobless Reincarnation (“Mushoku Tensei”) (song with video mix) - always with episode relevant content, showing the world, incredible world-building, with its amazing harmonic conclusion)
Creating the list made me wonder what more I could list so I took a peek into my music collection. Maybe Neil Young, which reminds me of my deceased mother (I didn’t include it here). Or other genres that would fit too, given that I do listen to a lot of or more of other genres. I found more highlights:
Banyan Tree - Feel The Sun Rise (until 2:09; transitions great into next song; a sunrise into wakeup beat; I have only the first on a mix CD in my car, and I always intuitively expect the followup but something different follows 😄)
Looks like the upgrade of lemmy.world finality fixed the statistics. Went from about 800 monthly users yesterday to over 5000 today. Not bad for a small hobby project....
You can choose an instance that gives you like-minded people and an intentional community (like feddit.de for a German instance, or programming.dev for all things development and programming related, or ani.social for anime communities, or beehaw.org for a more vetted signup and member approach for a more social and healthy userbase)
Lemmy is federated meaning despite this separation into instances users can read and participate in communities and posts of other instances
Instances can choose to not federate or to block other instances according to their choices (another reason to choose your instance according to your intentions and expectations or usage pattern)
You can link posts, add text to the post, and edit post titles after posting
Those are probably the most obvious and usage facing differences. Additionally:
Lemmy is a platform of free and open source software, open to customizations and collaboration
Lemmy instances are run by groups and individuals, it’s open to people and groups joining with their own instances
As such, both in software source and platform, Lemmy is a community project whereas Reddit is a private company (soon a public company owned by shareholders)
Lemmy has an open API allowing for custom client, bot, and other integrations
Lemmy uses the open ActivityPub protocol, so it can interact with many other platforms like Mastodon, KBin, etc
In many other ways, it is similar to Reddit. Like having upvotes and downvotes. Lemmy is still young, so it will improve in terms of functionality and annoyances.
I recently built my first rig and been using the hdmi cable that came with the MSI Optix G24C6 144hz monitor, which should be 1.4b. But now I remembered that the monitor is G-Sync compatible. Through googling I found out that majority prefers display port over hdmi but since I don’t have DP, I’m not exactly sure if it’s...
If you render at 144 Hz you won’t be needing or seeing anything noticeable from variable refresh rates. It’s most useful at lower framerates. So it depends on how (fast) your games/engines will render moreso than the refresh rate and cable.
You said in a comment your monitor supports Freesync, so HDMI 1.4 is likely useable for variable refresh rates through Freesync. Either way you can skip it with a high refresh rate of 144 Hz.
Inbox fright is an interesting term. I certainly know and can relate to what you are talking about.
It doesn’t affect me too much I don’t think, but I know the feeling you are talking about. And I wonder how related or intersecting to/with social anxiety it is.
Klare Grenzen ziehen und schon bei Beginn stoppen was nicht an den Arbeitsplatz gehört / du in der Interaktion nicht möchtest
An die Vorgesetzten wenden
Klar ist Grenzen ziehen ein Konflikt. Manche können damit nicht umgehen, nehmen es als persönliche Kritik oder Angriff, und werden unprofessionell.
Du musst dir überlegen ob du die Person konfrontieren möchtest, oder eben nicht, und dann aber auch mit den Konsequenzen leben musst (es geht so weiter).
Wie man zusammen arbeitet, wie das Arbeitsklima ist, und dass jeder gut, positiv, und produktiv arbeiten kann ist vor allem auch Sache des Arbeitgebers. Spätestens bei Konflikten. Wenn man mit der Person nicht umgehen kann, oder gerade wenn man befürchten muss dass es Intrigen oder andere unschöne Reaktionen gibt, dann ist es besser man hat Vorgesetzte vorher informiert - dass Problembewusstsein und beweisbare Kenntnis bereits zuvor vorhanden waren.
Genauso wie der Kollege unprofessionell sein kann kann natürlich auch die Vorgesetzten unfähig oder direkt schädlich sein. Dann bringt auch das, zumindest auf deren Ebene, wenig.
I was expecting some suggestions to act or unite in opposition. The linked post has none of that though, despite its title. It’s a rant/criticism, not a call to action.

I can’t get what it describes through all the Jedi stuff and jokes.
One mentor and one apprentice? And everything else remains unspecified and open?
For FOSS, as it is described, it makes me think it’s a big investment with unclear risk (will they even stay as a contributor?). Which of course can be contextualized - but then what is left here?

Relevant erscheinen mir Punkt 8. Persönlichkeitsrechte und 9. Schutz der Ehre.
Punkt 8 ist (für mich) nicht unbedingt eindeutig darin ob das Folgen der informationelle Selbstbestimmung ausreicht, oder man darüber hinaus anonymisieren sollte im Sinne der Privatperson - selbst wenn diese kein Problem sieht/äußert.
The title made me think of something completely different from what he actually said (the quotes are in the article).
He specifically talks about national stupidity, not individual or people/citizen stupidity
He says the technology is neutral, the concern is in how it is being used
What they’re saying is not that “stupidity is a bigger threat than AI”. They’re not separate ideas. He says he is worried about how AI is being used more than the technology and technological development itself.
“With this in mind, artificial intelligence is a tool. It is an algorithm made by humans, that is run by computers made by humans, that controls machines made by humans. I am more afraid, more worried [about] national stupidity than artificial intelligence to be honest,” he added.
“I have a scientific background, so I definitely consider technology as neutral. The problem is the user, not the technology itself.”
