Amazon claims that air filters of sizes 10x20 and 20x20 and 30x20 are frequently bought together.
I am prepared to seriously doubt that. How many different-sized furnaces do people have?
Which means that the "frequently bought together" phrase is bunk. There may be something that's "frequently together", like they showed up in search together, but "bought" it ain't. (And if it is search, their product categorization is seriously flawed, too)
The smoke season is finally upon us. Couldn't see the hills around the Bay today from the car. The graph backs this up.

nostr:npub1y2ps44hgptzqf8sre08th937j8vrdghvf07hh8z5nrrusf60ljesfc83n2 Interesting! Your interpretation of what "social media" is referring to is quite different from mine. I thought the "media" was the multimedia content shared along the social network, and that's also why it is plural.
In either case of the interpretation of the noun, what would you say the verb is? What do we do here?
nostr:npub1gv2uf982z6emrdujyg2z054tfnah8tuy80y7xwvcy36jhfawtx3qn88cmz Hmm, please bear with me: I'm not following. Can you say the same thing on a 3rd-grade language level?

nostr:npub1rjzu5dpsrqk5k9efwh2djtqqcpv38kvmxv5vmz72x5asv8pazzrs9t4qvh I can see the WSJ headline: "New socialist gossip network threatens serious business conversations world-wide"
What do you all think we do here in the #fediverse?
Is it “#social #media”? (It doesn’t sound quite right to me: I post “media” only rarely)
Is it “social #networking”? (Not sure, it’s different from offline networking, and I feel networked already even without the fediverse)
I’ve been playing with the term “social #communications”: I’m here to communicate with you all, but not 1-on-1, but socially, where everybody else can overhear what’s being said.
What to you think of the term?

Hard to imagine that they designed this so they could run it at much higher temps than they would reasonably be allowed to emit. (I’m taking a very wild uninformed guess as to sensitivity of the parameters, please correct me if you know better)
I hear there are a few minor fires in Canada this year … maybe not!!!

nostr:npub14q6a856gru3kjnrw3m3st0u5vxlls9a2redvsdd9u3gke8d4ucxs0a4za2 I think the problem exists on multiple levels. One is the "all I need is one document and the code can minimally interoperate". Another is the equivalent of "what is REST"? -- ActivityPub etc has multiple abstraction levels, and variation points and potential architectural divergence on all of them.
nostr:npub14q6a856gru3kjnrw3m3st0u5vxlls9a2redvsdd9u3gke8d4ucxs0a4za2 Sometimes I'm wondering whether the #fediverse needs an "architecture board".

Just remembering a quote by a college professor from a long time ago. Something like:
“Some people have a mental horizon of radius zero, and that they call their point of view.”
nostr:npub1u27r9h3j9pvrplaffsmpn698e8xhmuqhdgcxldv67ammql9pumnqha3qfq I definitely do. It's one of what I think of as the big existential threats.
Specifically what I am less concerned about is how extensions get used and more that that integration requires Θ(n^2) testing. It encourages lack of interoperability: it's one thing to say "I am doing something deliberately a bit odd," it is another to need to _either_ do a lot of odd things just to talk to anyone else _or_ just say "screw it we're integrating with mastodon and others can figure it out."
nostr:npub14q6a856gru3kjnrw3m3st0u5vxlls9a2redvsdd9u3gke8d4ucxs0a4za2 ideas what we can do? Somehow we need to aggregate stuff (people, issues, best practices …) to be able to identify and strive for globally better options than if everybody just were to work independently and thus just optimize locally for whatever the world looks like from their point of view.
Here's an interesting question. To me, anyway :-)
As the #fediverse grows, and an ever-broader set of apps talks #ActivityPub and extensions to #ActivityPub, how do we ensure that the overall architecture of the system remains consistent?
Example from the past: WebDAV used HTTP extensibility as it was intended, but arguably they deviated from the architectural principles. (A consequence: it remains a niche and many apps that could've used it don't)
Who else is worrying about things like that?
They have given up, and it’s not just Elon.
nostr:npub1yq6fen8cm3m7lusjm2ulyjz30kd5ymz3mv0cq5mc0c0957lml9psvn3w8k The issue has long being going much further than the internet IMHO. E.g. TV, even physical papers. Also, even if you were to go zero connectivity, your neighbor won't, and their alternative reality is going to impact you sooner or later. So I don't think that works.
