After my long inactivity here and with all the new folks I guess it's time for another #introduction

I’m Kolja from Germany. I’m a software engineer that works in the language engineering space, essentially creating languages and tools for people that aren’t programmers. I love #cooking and #photography so you will see lots of food pictures from me. I haven't made my mind up if I create an extra account for my german toots, for now you will see english and german from this account. #reintroduction

It’s funny how 6 month ago the Nikon fanboy where lecturing the Sony fanboys that no professional would use a camera with single card slot and bad battery life. Since the Nikon Z7 they tell why you don’t need dual card and battery life doesn’t matter.

Because I have no idea what to toot, I'm tooting this toot that stats that I have no idea what to toot.

After taking a closer look at the paper and the data, it seems like it's not really backing the claims in the article.

The paper only looks at two facebook pages #afd and #nutella.

I really struggle to understand the rational behind "Content Warning".

How shall somebody else decide for me which topics are sensitive?

Research from Germany suggests there is a correlation between facebook usage and attacks on refugees:

"Wherever per-person Facebook use rose to one standard deviation above the national average, attacks on refugees increased by about 50 percent."

@ashfurrow hi ash, did you ever share some information about the setup behind this mastodon instance? The official page only lists very few examples. I would like to get a feel for how resource heavy running a mastodon instance is.

Looks like netflix is afraid of having a proper USP and tries to get rid of it. #ads https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2018/08/netflix-begins-testing-ads-for-its-own-series-between-binge-season-episodes/
