I wonder if something like Tahoe-LAFS (in convergent/deduplicated mode) or even Garage wouldn't significantly improve the storage requirements for small fediverse instances
This thought brought to you by me describing "standard" to someone as a magic word that serves as an 'infection vector' for a hype cycle, and then suddenly realizing that this metaphor applies more broadly
Only just realizing how much sense it (seems to) make to think of tech hypes like they are infectious diseases, with infection vectors and pandemic policies - and it fails in the same ways too

A good friend of mine had an MRI, but the insurance wouldn't pay for a doctor to process/analyze it. First of all I didn't know you could even do that, and second of all do I reach any neurologists or otherwise the medical kind of brain doctor that would be willing to take a pro-bono look at an MRI?
edit: we have figured something out! thank you all so much for your offers and for spreading the word, it means a lot that people are willing to help out a friend in need like this, consider my heart warmed <3

ai, fear, wtf
A friend of mine told me his coworkers now have a new solution for when they don't want to do their own sums on a bit of engineering:
They use Chat GPT. They input the data, and ask it to calculate the answer. And they trust it every time.
This is a company that is involved in thousands of projects. They are using a chat model to calculate real sums used in construction.
The future is terrifying.

^^ using commercial LLMs is unethical and I judge you harshly if you do, not sorry.

food (vegetarian), sort of recipe
I'm going to declare today's almost-vegan meat pastry a success! The only non-vegan ingredient is some cheese
Sauce is made out of vegetable stock/broth cubes immersion-mixed with flour and some peas to thicken, with generous amounts of thyme, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, slight amount of turmeric, coriander, celery, black/white pepper, and a bit of salt. Also a glob of sharp mustard mixed in, as well as a few whole peas.
The remainder of the filling is spinach and cheap minced meat substitute from Lidl, the crumb stuff. Wrapped in fresh vegan pastry dough with some grated cheese added.
Meat substitute and spinach are fried and later added to the sauce and boiled for a bit longer.

Sometimes a like instead of a boost means, ah yes thank you for poisoning my brain but I shan't be encouraging the poisoning of brains of others.

The kids were guessing the ingredients of my stroganoff sauce.
Thinking about salt, I gave them a hint: "It's very small, you can't see it, but it's present in almost all food."
Said the 7yo: "Microplastics!"
re: food (vegetarian), sort of recipe
(I used regular cheese because something about the taste and texture of the vegan cheese options here really bothers me when melted; if that's not a problem for you, this recipe should work fine with vegan cheese, and that would make it entirely vegan!)
re: food (vegetarian), sort of recipe
Note: 500ml water for 2 stock cubes (yes, that is double the usual density) and 1 package of meat substitute crumbs; serves two
