Kudzu flowers supposedly have a grape like flavor. I just had a beer made with them from fonta flora in NC and you could vaguely taste it. Although unsure if it was my imagination.

Kudzu flowers were listed as one of the possibilities in the article.

Same acronym still works, just swap gemini in place of google.


Havarti has a lot of small holes, but its a different kind of cheese


LD_AUDIT is even more powerful and fun to use. And far lesser known.


Thank you! We will take a look!

Its an alternative libc instead of gnu.

I've generally seen it for embedded systems due to smaller size and you can statically link it.

But there are some compatibility drawbacks for non musl binaries as well as source that intentionally or unintentionally relies on glibc behavior or non standard functionality.

You don't want to mix and match your libc's on a running system.

Buildroot may be a good way to start to play with musl (or uClibc, another small c library).


I found building musl easier than uClibc, Xephyr, newlib, or (especially) glibc. Glibc is an Ouroboros of hacks at build time.


Also a good example of what happens when trying to write portable C code, even when constrained to UNIX/POSIX platforms.


Meetup was great until it became so expensive to run a glorified calendar+ email list. $180+ a year is silly for small groups.

But meetup was awesome for discoverability of small local niche groups.

Manual link sharing doesn't help with local groups.

The alternative was Facebook groups for free, but has awful discoverability and awful event calendars. But most people have Facebook, so thats the default now.

How does this benefit me as an organizer? How can local people find my event without me having to spam it on services(Facebook, etc) that they already have accounts on?


The reason Meetup worked was years of collecting contact info of people interested in specific topics and then blasting all of them when a new group started in a location. If 1% of people responded, that was still a decent turnout.

This is the big barrier to entry for anyone trying to replicate Meetup. It was never about the event organizing software (which really wasn’t that great) it was about connecting your group or event to enough interested, local people that you had a chance at actually getting off the ground.


My partner and a friend both ran pretty big meetups 10 years ago. What made it good was the discoverability. As organizers they had to pay for the group ($80) but group members got free usage. Organizers and some groups charged to recoup but not the norm. There were messgae board and stuff but basically just a reservation system.

Somewhere along the way wework bought them. It’s been spun off, but downhill since. A lot of group organizers passed the groups to others and some groups disappeared.

I’m still a member of a couple groups and meetup is really pushing members of groups to pay now (join meetup plus), and more adds to click through when you rsvp.


My experience was that Facebook was the default for events, which slowly moved to meetup.com and with the price hikes organizers moved to WhatsApp, which is the worst in every aspect for _me_ as a user.

But people seem to like it.


Facebook events were amazing, you would get suggestions of friends going to some event or just suggestions to similar events that you liked.

But nowadays nobody is on Facebook anymore and there is just no replacement for that.


How do you find new groups on WhatsApp?


Word of mouth. Ironically enough, I just sent this to a friend around the same time you commented this

"I’m curious where event discovery is for___, are there TG / WA groups?"


The Internet doesn't want to check your id. The government wants to force your the Internet to check your id. In the least safe way possible.

And as a convenient side effect dissuade people from using "morally objectionable" internet resources under fear of identity theft and doxxing.


No.

This is looking for coding bugs that allow unintentional behavior, not intentionally malicious code.
