Absolutely, it's probably the most consumer-friendly and reliable part of all of the Bahn services. Personnel is usually pretty great too, and that despite them having to suffer the most from all the inept decisions made in the upper ranks.

It's pretty much the norm in all "proper" German techno/electronic music clubs I've been to, Berlin and elsewhere.


Cool. Now do that at the entrance to swimming pools too.

Has become a pest. Even inside. Even directly at or in the water. No matter what the signs say.

At least regarding that I miss the last millennium: no omnipresence of cameras. Not a bunch of entitled pseudo-influencers filming everything and everyone.


Yup. I pay for YouTube, but not being able to disable shorts made me use ReVanced.


On the other end of the spectrum, "experimental artist" (whatever that is) Lawrence English wrote "A Young Person's Guide to Hustling (in Music and the Arts", which seems more like what you're after.

This is much better than the post & he also sounds like a much more interesting artist.


He's great and has also run workshops as of pretty recently so you can find opportunities to learn from him directly too

I also saw an experimental short at TIFF's Wavelengths program in 2024 that he "scored": https://tiff.net/events/wavelengths-1-eye-and-ear-control


Yup, it's great, at least for live action content. I've found that for Anime, a small amount of motion interpolation is absolutely needed on my OLED, otherwise the content has horrible judder.


I always found that weird, anime relies on motion blur for smoothness when panning / scrolling motion interpolation works as an upgraded version of that... until it starts to interpolate actual animation


Also not like logging setups outside of k8s can't be a horror show too. Like, have you ever had to troubleshoot a rsyslog based ELK setup? I'll forever have nightmares from debugging RainerScript mixed with the declarative config and having to read the source code to find out why all of our logs were getting dropped in the middle of the night.


Agree, the lack of support for TTF fonts is a bummer for most non-english use cases:-/


Am I in the minority when I actually like those AI features on GitHub? The ability to interrogate any open source codebase is __amazing__, this feature alone has saved me days of work/research. The AI code reviews are nothing to write home about, but occasionally catch stuff that I would've missed, a net benefit for me. I don't really get all the outrage... Sure, having an "Ask AI" Clippy-like thing in your face everywhere gets old quick, but at least on GitHub I find it non-obtrusive and often actually useful.


...you can just clone the repository and do that interrogation locally with the AI tool of your choice.

Every single application or webpage having its own AI integration is seriously one of the dumbest ideas in computing history (instead of separating applications and AI tools and let them work together via standardized interfaces).


Github Copilot review is such a simple - optional - ux, it makes sense as a feature. I enjoy it.


It really is. I've been using Revanced to patch out the Shorts feature on my phone, works decently well, but I'm technically violating the ToS with that, despite shelling out 15€/month for it. Obnoxious.


I tried implementing a Matrix bot a few months back, and it was an absolutely miserable experience, since Device Verification/E2EE was not working with any of the available open source Python implementations I found.

I then stumbled upon their internal Rust SDK[1] that they use for Element X, which is actually quite nice, and even has FFI bindings for Python and Kotlin[2]. Unfortunately the documentation was really lacking at the time. I managed to put something together with the help of an LLM and the source code and examples to find my way around the various APIs, and it actually works with emoji verification and E2EE (although there are weird bugs around synchronization, but that's probably just an API misuse on my end).

It seems they've improved the documentation since and even provide a reference client[3] to see how things work.
