• Twitter’s Encrypted DMs Are Deeply Inferior to Signal and WhatsApp. The social network's new privacy feature is technically flawed, opt-in, and limited in its functionality. All this for just $8 a month.

  I love how Matrix or its most popular client Element do not even get a mention. Source: about 1 year ago

• A new onboarding experience on Mastodon

  The title undersells the change a bit in my opinion. By default, mastodon now encourages new users to sign-up on https://mastodon.social which has caused a bit of a kerfuffle in the fediverse. Personally, I'm largely ambivalent to the change; I understand the reasoning, and it's what https://element.io has been doing for https://matrix.org since the beginning. It is more than a bit of a sea-change though given the... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Paying users get early access to the new change

  We currently have the Matrix protocol, with client applications such as Element supporting it. We also have XMPP as another option. Generally more modern than IRC, these platforms are primarily developed as FOSS software. This makes it less likely for developers to impact their users negatively. However, despite these advantages, these platforms lack the refined user experience (addictiveness and stickiness) that... Source: about 1 year ago

• [For Hire] Computer Programming Tutor or Teacher (C, C++, and others, details inside)

  Please DM me if you are interested in hiring me or have any questions at all. We will work via Element (https://element.io) voice/screen share calls, so please make sure you have a mic available. I look forward to hearing from you. Source: about 1 year ago

• Discord alternatives?

  Your best bet is probably matrix, the most user friendly client iirc is element. Source: about 1 year ago

• Bitcoin Block 840000

  The only way I can foresee a cryptocoin actually holding value is if spending the coin meant spending processing cycles and RAM doing things like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_volunteer_computing_projects But in more general sense, less like https://boinc.berkeley.edu/ and more like AWS... It's the only way to have value, actually holding computing power in a distributed network. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Folding@Home: We empower anyone to become a citizen scientist

  Or alternatively: Boinc[1], which has a bunch of different projects. [1] https://boinc.berkeley.edu/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Distributed Inference and Fine-Tuning of Large Language Models over the Internet

  Made me think of Gridcoin and BOINC https://boinc.berkeley.edu/. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Have you ever donated your computing power with BOINC? Take 5 minutes to fill out the 2023 BOINC Census!

  The BOINC Census is back for another year! BOINC is an open source software and network for volunteer computing. People can use it do donate their CPU/GPU power to various scientific research areas like cancer, drug discovery, mapping the galaxy, and more. Source: 7 months ago

• Ask HN: What should I do with my leftover bandwidth?

  A few years back, I was in a similar situation and found BOINC(https://boinc.berkeley.edu/) to be a great way to contribute. It's a platform that lets you support various scientific research projects by sharing your computational power and bandwidth. However, it's worth noting that BOINC might tends to be more CPU/GPU intensive rather than bandwidth-heavy. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
