„With a bunch of generous assumptions, legitimate requests are only about 2% of https://t.co/kEtDwEFcYq traffic — everything else are scrapers.“ Yeah this checks out. Anyone who has valuable data on their public site will have seen this. It’s horrendous.
scrapers horrendous generous
The the words it uses that this site has seen
least often elsewhere. Posts are matched on those words alone —
nothing here is a summary of this one.

Warren Buffett steps down as chairman of Berkshire Hathaway. “Serving as your Chairman has been the privilege of a lifetime, and I have never taken your trust for granted. Father Time always wins. He has, however, been generous with me. He has given me the opportunity to see Berkshire reach a point where I am more confident than ever about what lies ahead. The company is in excellent hands, and I look forward to remaining a shareholder alongside you.” Related

The line is what's fair, appropriate, or required, as distinct from what's generous, in light of the defined quid pro quo relationship between parties. #principleoftheday Related

To have a good relationship, you must be clear with each other about what the quid pro quo is--what is generous, what is fair, and what is just plain taking advantage--and how you will be with each other. #principleoftheday Related

American author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck and Everything Is F*cked. Writes essays and book reviews at markmanson.net.
Love, money and fame don’t change you, they amplify who you already are. The generous get more generous. The insecure get more insecure. The undisciplined fly off the rails. Whatever your dream is, know it won’t fix your life for you. It will only multiply what’s already there. Related

Co-founder of AQR Capital Management; quantitative investor and writer.
The Jewish population on Earth is still below pre-holocaust levels. The Palestinians? Yes the people who repeatedly (back to 1948) rejected generous two state solutions in favor of violence and insistence on a one state solution from the river to the sea are the true victims here. You know, I still think it was the 6 mm industrially murdered Jews. Quoting @mattxiv “nazis got off relatively unpunished for the holocaust while palestinians ended up paying for it despite having nothing to do with it” is not antisemitic, it’s factual and obvious Related

RE: https://cosocial.ca/@mhoye/117190449442518308 On the one end people are being priced out of running web services due to hardware shortages caused by AI, on the other end those who still run web services are being bled dry by AI scrapers essentially stealing compute. Related

Mastodon A Serif Badge Pin using a stretched out version of my Spagetty typeface in antique silver (probably not real silver) and it's available now in the shop! Wear it with pride, knowing that most people will point out the horrendous typo. Then you can explain the joke and they will probably think even less of you. But deep down, you'll know you have the upper hand regarding typography lingo puns. And that means something. simplebits.shop

Writes Stratechery, a subscription newsletter on the business and strategy of technology, and hosts the Dithering and Sharp Tech podcasts.
Very sad news, on a human level, an industry level, and a personal level. I didn’t know Om super well, but he was one of the pioneers that made Stratechery possible. And my most vivid memory of him is some truly excellent device that he unilaterally reached out to give me right when I got started that was both right and that I have held onto. A generous man. om.co

Founder and CEO of Wolfram Research, creator of Mathematica and Wolfram|Alpha, and author of A New Kind of Science.
Mourning the loss of my friend @JoshuaBaer (1975-2026) and his passion for life and the future. Whether it was about his business, his mentoring, his family, his latest personal productivity hack---or his planned science fiction book---Josh exuded a rare and generous enthusiasm that lifted those around him. All cut short by a freak plane accident on Tuesday evening. Related

and even if you take a generous interpretation of 128 * 8 gig transfers, you're at 128 gigabytes a second for the same shoreline versus 2 and a half terabytes a second. There's a there's an order of magnitude difference in bandwidth per edge area.

Their words
You can you can take the margin like Nvidia takes the margin. memory players are taking the margin, but ASML has never risen the price more than they've increased the capability of the tool. Um, and so in a sense, they've always provided net benefit to their customer.

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
