Absolutely. And be open that you don’t have experience with it!!

I feel like boomers are the worst about this (as a young business owner I get tons of random dumb business advice from that age group) but that could just be bias

Ok this is so cool and I’m subscribed

Forgot to mention- can’t compare to photo prism as I’ve never used it!

I’m new to self hosting and I’ve only used it for about a month. During the last month all updates have been stable for me! But according to their roadmap they plan to do their official “stable” release a little later this year, so you could wait until then?

Also I’m running it in docker so that might help

Yeah it was over after pixel 3 or a little before iirc! Although to me it was obvious they would eventually kill it off because that’s soooo much storage. It was just a trick to get people bought into Google photos (which is a great service but much too expensive for me and now basically totally replaced by Immich)

Yeah great perspective. I think we all need to have this perspective more as many tech companies will randomly change their minds on their products.

Kind of like how I got free photo backup on my first two pixels. It was a nice feature, I’m sad it’s gone, but it’s fine.

You made me actually check out Immich and I love the tagging feature. That makes it feel much more like a photo library and less like just a giant file storage solution that happens to store photos.

Really interested in immich and archive box!

I see your point - but there’s always going to be questions science can’t answer because science is based only on what we can observe and measure.

A big one is “where did everything come from”

So I don’t see a way of avoiding magical or spiritual thinking - it’s likely more important to separate that from fact when making decisions that effect more than just you :)

I don’t take astrology that seriously, it’s more of a conversation starter or a tool for introspection. Sometimes I see things about my birthdate that help me notice new things about myself, and sometimes it just seems made up.

Connecting astrology to anti-intellectualism is a pretty big reach in my opinion. I don’t think the ideas of astrology, religion, magic, etc should be applied to policy that impacts anybody else.

Pretty fair view on astrology! I have some friends/family members who have very close birthdays and it’s actually remarkable how similar they are in certain ways. I feel like I typically see the similarities in the way they handle things like relationships, power dynamics, confidence, and they sort of thing.

For example I know many Geminis, and one pattern I’ve noticed is that they are all passive aggressive types. Like they won’t tell you about a problem until it’s too late, and then they will boil over and you’ll end up in a fight about something that could have been resolved so much easier.

Could that be confirmation bias on my part? Definitely. But still it’s a fun tool for introspection if you don’t take it too far :) I also like to think of the history behind it and how humans developed it in such a human way just from observations.

Why? I don’t see how astrology hurts anybody (unless people take it to extremes, like not dating someone because of their signs or something like that.)

The one I thought of was actually “What do you think about astrology?”

The answer I am looking for is neither that they believe or don’t believe it, I want to hear something between. Something like

“It’s fun! I love seeing the connections between people born with similar birthdays and stuff, and honestly it does seem accurate sometimes. But also I don’t live by it! What about you?”

This open, honest way of communicating is what’s important. Didn’t knock the idea down or support it 100%, just approached with an open mind.

Basically always. Unless my signal automatically turned off as I merged into the left lane and then I turned left immediately before I even had time to turn it back on

Technically you can use anything for job networking, it’s not necessary for it to be"designed" for networking.

A Lemmy instance about your industry/niche could be a good place to meet people in your industry, and even hire ppl or search for ppl hiring.
