De “open” já não tinha praticamente nada, agora sim se foi o boi com a corda… Não passam de mais uma big tech em meio a tantas outras.
Complicado dessa mudança é que já não haviam incentivos para se importar com a segurança geral e com a disponibilização dos modelos para todos, a partir de agora caminham em uma direção totalmente contrária a aquilo que um dia a “board” dos diretores sonhou
No caso do Bluesky só é possível hospedar instâncias para um único usuário, diferente do que acontece com outros serviços federados baseados em ActivityPub como o Mastodon, Lemmy, etc… em que as instâncias podem ter múltiplos usuários concomitantemente.
Vergonhoso sair da plataforma de um bilionário e ir para outra… pelo menos o Bluesky tem algum tipo de federação através do “@ protocol” mas de todo modo, deprimente…
Portais de notícias (g1) recomendando Bluesky e Threads e ignorando completamente o fediverso, vão pra sempre continuar se submetendo aos abusos de big techs!
Sempre fiz compras on-line quase que exclusivamente pelo ML, mas acho engraçado que muitas das vezes que comento isso com as pessoas a réplica é: “cuidado para não vir um tijolo…” ou algo similar.
A logística deles é simplesmente imbatível na minha região, quase tudo chega em 3 ou menos dias (até em sábados) e sempre que precisei de suporte foram exemplares.
É bom ter competitividade, mas por mim as muambas da shopee e a plataforma do Bezos podiam pegar fogo.
Doesn’t matter if you know what it means, but you can still pronounce it (for the most part)
That’s the beauty of the added gramatical complexity these languages have compared to English, although there are still cases where things get ambiguous. For example, the following words are written differently but pronounced the exact same, generally relying on their context to differentiate them:
I’ve always been told that Portuguese is like “Spanish and French had a baby”.
Having studied Spanish, French and English I can confirm that those similarities are definitely present!
My wife and I were in a cab with a native Portuguese speaker who knew a bit of English and a bit of Romantic languages. My wife knows a bit of French; I know a bit of Spanish… and between the three of us, we were able to speak to each other in a kinda “creole type” delivery. It was really cool to experience.
What an interesting story! Where I live there are a lot of Haitian immigrants and communicating with them also involves that “creole type” language. In comparison talking to Cuban / Venezuelan immigrants is made much easier due to the similarities with Spanish. Regardless, the fact you can have a basic talk with an entire continent because of this is so cool.
Lastly, I have to ask… do you think “bradypneic” would be pronounced “BRAY-DIP” or “BRA-DIP” in English?
Definitely the second pronunciation (“BRA-DIP”) is the correct one!
English fails hard at conveying phonetics through written language. In Brazilian portuguese (my native language) those words would be written as:
The lack of diacritics (and several other characteristics) makes English really easy to learn but in contrast you get those kinds of problems. I’ve never seen anyone get those words wrong in my field (I’m a vet)
Wow that is outrageous. I paid the Brazilian equivalent for that amount yesterday on a 16 slice pizza with four different flavors and a white chocolate border + an 8 slice small sweet one from a local shop with delivery services and all.
No wonder these companies don’t see the financial benefit for bringing their operations to the country…
Big tech can cheat the system by paying their taxes on countries in which they are lower, but when you try to do the same:
Infelizmente li aquela thread no Github hoje mais cedo e já estou providenciando a mudança pro KeePassXC…
