I was responding to purely hypothetical odds that someone just made up, in which case things can be as complicated or simple as one wants them to be.
But even if I were making an actual prediction based on real statistical data, I am not sure why you would think that having an expectation of the approximate distribution of something given what we know about its statistical likelihood is “mistaking statistics for actual reality”.
If something has a 1 in 100M chance of happening to someone, you’d expect that about 80 people in the world now have had that thing happen to them.
What would you prefer people use to refer to “Reddit-like” ActivityPub clients, and what would you prefer for “Twitter-like” ones?
Great, can you explain what you mean? I did not follow.
Are you saying to start calling all of it ActivityPub? In which case, I would think that’d be extra confusing since lemmy and mastodon don’t cross-interface very well and you really need one client for each type.
When Steve Jobs died, social media was already around. Steve Jobs was 56 when he died. We saw what Steve Jobs became already. And I just do not see any meaningful similarities in their personalities.
He certainly had issues, but Musks issues absolutely eclipse Jobs by a large margin.
Good parenting in the age of streaming platforms and social media is a frigging minefield. I’m not saying it should be easy, but it has entirely new challenges that didn’t exist for all of humanity before the internet. You can’t even ban your kids from the platforms to solve the problem because schools depend on YouTube for instruction, and work is done on Chromebooks that parents usually have no admin control over.
Again, not saying parents get a free pass, but the challenges are evident.
Did someone say this was a healthy democracy? We’re talking about fucking survival
At least you didn’t call them IBMs

Let’s just agree to a compromise. USB3 it is.
That is, I guess, because it doesn’t actually know anything, even things it’s accurate about, so it has no way to determine if it knows the answer or not.
but imagine where this’ll be in 10yrs!
Do I have to? I feel bad enough as it is
That boy ain’t right
What question?
Okay buddy
You heard that message decades ago?
And the iPhone screen size didn’t change until the App Store had been around for 4 years, during which time it became huge. I am not sure why this person is trying to discount what you’re saying.
