Ukraine and Russia are both historically Orthodox Christian countries. These churches celebrate Christmas based on the Julian calendar, and until 2100 this date will be 14 days behind the Gregorian calendar used by the rest of the world.
The Ukrainian Orthodox Church already began to use the Gregorian calendar in 2014, distancing itself from the Russian Orthodox Church, and now this date has been codified into Ukrainian law.

Well, the question for me is how many active contributors have left. If those who leave are lurkers, it doesn't really matter. If those who leave are mostly creators, that's a serious problem for the platform.

As much as this seems obvious, I find it to have the same effect as the Pale Blue Dot image. We really are living on a tiny little rock residing in a void.
This is a common one, but the cardinality of infinite sets. Some infinities are larger than others.
The natural numbers are countably infinite, and any set that has a one-to-one mapping to the natural numbers is also countably infinite. So that means the set of all even natural numbers is the same size as the natural numbers, because we can map 0 > 0, 1 > 2, 2 > 4, 3 > 6, etc.
But that suggests we can also map a set that seems larger than the natural numbers to the natural numbers, such as the integers: 0 → 0, 1 → 1, 2 → –1, 3 → 2, 4 → –2, etc. In fact, we can even map pairs of integers to natural numbers, and because rational numbers can be represented in terms of pairs of numbers, their cardinality is that of the natural numbers. Even though the cardinality of the rationals is identical to that of the integers, the rationals are still dense, which means that between any two rational numbers we can find another one. The integers do not have this property.
But if we try to do this with real numbers, even a limited subset such as the real numbers between 0 and 1, it is impossible to perform this mapping. If you attempted to enumerate all of the real numbers between 0 and 1 as infinitely long decimals, you could always construct a number that was not present in the original enumeration by going through each element in order and appending a digit that did not match a decimal digit in the referenced element. This is Cantor's diagonal argument, which implies that the cardinality of the real numbers is strictly greater than that of the rationals.
The best part of this is that it is possible to construct a set that has the same cardinality as the real numbers but is not dense, such as the Cantor set.
Coming from Reddit, there were multiple car-related subs and they all saw some fairly heavy traffic with lots of posts and comments. Heck, even some of the model-specific ones seem to get more interaction than this sub does. What’s the deal?
For sure, though I'll note I know many people who dislike cars as the dominant form of transportation in a society but are also car enthusiasts from the hobbyist perspective (this would also include me).
Starting this afternoon, all existing OpenAI API developers “with a history of successful payments” can access GPT-4. GPT-4 can generate text (including code) and accept image and text inputs – an improvement over GPT-3.5, its predecessor, which only accepted text – and performs at “human level” on various...
I think the fediverse communities are already proving themselves to be of significantly higher quality than reddit. The main difficulty I see is that I don't know if lemmy/kbin provide a good way to maintain cross-instance communities at the moment. I'd like to avoid fragmenting niche communities across them.
