I recently did the same thing, as 95% of my incoming call volume in a week was spam calls. It's been great. The friction I feel is when interacting with ephemeral contacts like contractors, etc. I've had to try to be diligent about adding them as contacts if I expect a call back, or hoping they leave a voicemail.
It's sad there really isn't much you can do about it. I tried do-not-call lists, answering and telling them to stop calling me, reporting them - all was apparently a waste of time.
1000%. The number of times I’ve tried to go straight to the correct well factored abstraction and it worked out are countable on one hand. This is one of those pieces of advise that I know to be true yet it takes continuous effort to enact.
Oh interesting. I actually find custom docs sites (mermaid.js was the most recent one for me) seem to be the ones that break most commonly for me in Firefox but work in Chrome and Safari.
The most recent ones that I ran into seem to have been fixed based on a quick check. mermaid.js docs site was one of them where nothing on the page was clickable (I think Firefox was rendering an invisible div over the entire page) but this issue wasn't present in Chrome or Safari. That appears to have been fixed. Examples are hard to provide since they almost always get fixed but in the moment its enough pain to always get me to drop Firefox.
I unfortunately do not have a running list. The one that made me drop Firefox last time was the mermaid.js docs site. None of the sidebar navigation was clickable but only on Firefox, the same issue did not appear on Safari or Chrome. It appears they have since fixed that issue as I retested and it appears fine.
The "give me examples" is sort of a moving target, anecdotally I have run into many more completely or partially broken sites when using Firefox as compared to Chrome and Safari. It is likely that some or all of those examples are now fixed but the pain in the moment is enough to keep me from using the browser long term.
I have tried to switch quite a few times over the years to Firefox and I still to this day consistently run into websites that are unusably broken on Firefox, do you have the same experience? I realize this probably speaks volumes to the need for more people to use browsers other than Chrome but its unfortunately frequent enough that I always end up switching back to Chrome after a few months.
I was recently introduced to the “lottery factor” as a less morbid alternative. As in, if one of us won the lottery tomorrow and quit on the spot what would happen.
I would venture to guess that 80%+ of the handles are the same on both, enough for the graph to be useful especially for the more popular accounts. If not I bet there’s enough other metadata to do a decent job of mapping them it doesn’t have to be perfect just good enough to get the recommendation engine going. At least enough to bootstrap a recommendation algorithm that is geared more toward primary accounts that create text based content.
I'd estimate less than 25% overlap between my social graph on Twitter and Meta so building a account recommendation system based on my graph from Twitter would be mighty useful. Again this was a just a thought experiment based on two temporally related events and specific wording in a letter nothing more. Of course its on them to prove it.
I'm not sure I follow. I'd estimate there's less than a 25% overlap between my Twitter social graph and my Meta (instagram + facebook) social graph. If I was going to build a system to recommend accounts to follow it sure would be handy to know what accounts you followed on the platform most related to the one I'm building. Again I have 0 evidence of anything as I've said and of course its on Musk's team to prove it but just thought the timing and specific wording chosen in the letter was interesting.
I'm not arguing that... I'm saying that my follower graph for facebook (mostly family) and instagram (mostly friends and diy etc) looks very different than my Twitter graph because the use cases are very different. I would say there is less than 25% overlap between my Twitter social graph and my Meta social graph. If I was bootstrapping a platform like Twitter it would be nice to be able to recommend accounts to follow based on a similar platform (Twitter). Again I have no evidence of anything here... it was literally just two temporally related events that seemed interesting.
100% I think this is the most likely case. I just noticed a couple things, explicit follower graph/following data called out in the letter and the timing and abruptness of the rate limiting change that made me think there's a chance there's more going on behind the scenes. Total conjecture of course but thought the two data points were interesting.
Totally... the only thing I can be convinced of is my Twitter social graph looks quite different from my Instagram and Facebook graphs. The letter explicitly calls out follower graph and following data which is the only reason why I would even entertain this as a even remotely plausible theory.
I disagree... follower graph would be pretty important to bootstrap a Twitter like experience. My follower graph on Twitter looks quite different than Instagram or Facebook. The letter also explicitly calls out follower graph and following data which is why I mention it.
Really? Maybe I'm in an A/B test but on mobile for me every page load pops up a dialog that says "this looks better in the app" and they only load a limited number of comments and gate the rest behind the app.
Apollo was by far the best reddit browsing experience on mobile and it seems like the API price was a direct action to shut these third party experiences down knowing their experience was sub par.
Are you using old.reddit.com by chance? If so I have a sneaking suspicious that's going to go away in due time.
Yeah that makes sense. To me it felt unintuitive that environment was global and only copied on server start, with a few exceptions, and not session start but that was likely just a failure in my mental model of how tmux worked.
Yes that should work. In our case we have a few different windows/panes that all want the same environment so it made sense to reach for export as a way to ensure the environment was set but then ran into this quirk of tmux
At least to me, it seemed most intuitive to not have a global server environment and always copy the environment when starting a new session not just on server start and have the existing behavior when attaching to a session.
It's sad there really isn't much you can do about it. I tried do-not-call lists, answering and telling them to stop calling me, reporting them - all was apparently a waste of time.
