Mysterious Victorian-era shoes are washing up on a beach in Wales

Link: smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/
Discussion: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4

Volunteers have discovered more than 400 shoes while cleaning up rock pools.

Hundreds of Mysterious Victorian-Era Shoes Are Washing Up on a Beach in Wales. Nobody Knows Where They Came From

Sarah Kuta · The leading theory is that the black leather boots, which were discovered by volunteers, were traveling on a cargo ship that sank nearby roughly 150 years ago

Just pushed out a new release of Claw, my Android app for the @lobsters link aggregation forum.

The major feature added this cycle is the ability to filter out tags, available from the settings page. Other than that there's a lot of improvements on the widgets end as well as fixes for some very pesky crashes. The widget UI is not the best at the moment but I will continue improving it for the next release.

Play store/IzzyOnDroid should pick it up soon

Reminds me of this passage from Rebecca Solnit on doomerism:

❝I don’t know why so many people seem to think it’s their job to spread discouragement, but it seems to be a muddle about the relationship between facts and feelings. I keep saying I respect despair as an emotion, but not as an analysis.…Feelings deserve full respect as feelings, but all they inform you about is you.❞

Longer excerpt in the screenshots; full article here:

theguardian.com/commentisfree/

I don’t know why so many people seem to think it’s their job to spread discouragement, but it seems to be a muddle about the relationship between facts and feelings. I keep saying I respect despair as an emotion, but not as an analysis. You can feel absolutely devastated about the situation and not assume this predicts outcome; you can have your feelings and can still chase down facts from reliable sources, and the facts tell us that the general public is not the problem; the fossil fuel industry and other vested interests are; that we have the solutions, that we know what to do, and that the obstacles are political; that when we fight we sometimes win; and that we are deciding the future now.I wonder sometimes if it’s because people assume you can’t be hopeful and heartbroken at the same time, and of course you can. In times when everything is fine hope is unnecessary. Hope is not happiness or confidence or inner peace; it’s a commitment to search for possibilities. Feelings deserve full respect as feelings, but all they inform you about is you. History is full of people who continued to struggle in desperate and grim circumstances, and so is the news from Ukraine to the Philippines. Some lived to see those circumstances change because of that struggle. Maybe this is what Antonio Gramsci meant with his famous phrase “pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the will”. Some days I think that if we lose the climate battle, it’ll be due in no small part to this defeatism among the comfortable in the global north, while people in frontline communities continue to fight like hell for survival. Which is why fighting defeatism is also climate work.

@zkatkat I made an account to say that this project is great. I wanted to share my anti-LLM spiel:

When considering the use of a tool for a purpose, you need to ask three things:

1) Does it do the job well?
2) How is the tool made and who controls it?
3) What are the consequences of using the tool?

The answer to 1) is "No" unless you the job is either spreading (m|d)isinformation or having an accountability sink is extremely important.

For 2), the tool is sourced unethically, on the exploitation of the global south and by plagiarising a literally epic number of works. It also is entirely controlled by whichever vendor (OpenAI, Google, MS, etc.) --- this means that, even if the answer to 1) were "hell the fuck yes", you are now hitching your cart to a horse controlled by the tech bros. Hard pass.

3) The environmental impact is catastrophic. People's ability to THINK is literally atrophying. Follow-up questions CANNOT be answered by the LLM or the people using it, leading to maintenance nightmares.

warum heißt es eigentlich "ring" und nicht "rong"

mit dem "o" wäre im wort ja praktisch ein ring bzw. rong enthalten

mehrzahl wäre dann roonge oder roongs damit zwei ringe im wort enthalten sind - coole logos für geschäfte die trauroonge verkaufen

게임 세계관이든 애니메이션이나 영화를 보든 현생뇌를 빼고 잠깐이라도 빠져들어서 뇌빼기 하는 게 주된 목표인데 이거 반대로 말하면 너무 현생에 신경쓰이는 게 많다는 건가? 결국 우울증 특징이였네
