They’re tak-ing. myyy. gills.

It’s a remake that uses new, higher quality assets though, so isn’t an option in this case.

Sure, but that assumes this manager would be happy with generic “medical stuff” as an answer…

Right, but if you’re request for denied for something medically necessary unless you revealed it, you went anyway (because it’s necessary), and then you got fired… That feels like it shouldn’t be legal (obviously that doesn’t mean that it isn’t).

I’m not sure it would be legal if they were forced to reveal medical information.

I think better algorithms wouldn’t be a waste of developer resources. At the end of the day, the post feed algorithm is the core product, IMO.

Figuring out how to lower the weights on highly active subs is a good idea. As is ranking smaller subs’ content appropriately.

For all it’s faults, Reddit’s algorithm was pretty good. There was always a decent mix of small and large subs on my feed.

Kbin’s post ranking overall seems better than Lemmy’s and that was a major factor in me choosing it as my home base.

I wasn’t implying that you shouldn’t be able to. Just sharing my opinion on this particular example.

Call me crazy but I think the top one looks better. The art style loses something in the bottom. The character and the background blend into each other two much, there’s line work outlining the character model that gets lost.

I have like 80,000 total Reddit Karma on an 11-year-old account.

In four weeks on Kbin I’ve already gotten 3,100 reputation. It’s just a much nicer community than Reddit.

Oldie but a goodie.

You could engineer it so users could provide their own algorithm.

It would be a HARD engineering problem, but not impossible, IMO.

The goal should be to allow users to choose their own algorithm, including third party algorithms you can install yourself or something.

It’s a really interesting way to get around co-worker copyright without needing to make your own assets.

One of the things I like about programming is it feels like legit magic. You infuse a lightning stone with words of power that bend its mind to your will.

One must be cautious. The stone will do what is asked of it. Exactly what is asked of it. Ask carefully.

I think you mean shudder. Unless the code you wrote is running on cameras.

Yeah, I’m sure it doesn’t feel great, but I didn’t get the sense that they were trying to personally attack everyone on the relevant servers, but more of a “we’re only four people, did not expect our instance to become a “default” community, and are completely underwater from a moderation perspective. We need to pull a rip cord to get this under control”

Yeah, they’re saying “look, we only have four mods, have a highly targeted type of community we are trying to build, and have had to disproportionately moderate users from these instances” which seems reasonable on it’s face.

That’s kind of the beauty of Lemmy/Kbin right? You can spin up an instance with whatever rules you want. I think people are reacting to the fact that during the Reddit exodus Beehaw kind of looked like a “default” general instance, including me.

But that’s a misreading on our part, not them going back on that.

Or they’ll just be a smallish instance building the kind of community they want to build. There’s nothing wrong with knowing what you want to be and not trying to be more.
