What TV do you have that has 8 HDMI inputs?

Also helps to cut down on your number of cables once you see you have 5 USB-B cables when at most you need 1. I ziplock bagged all of my cables and cut them down to one of each type. These days I throw out the included cable with devices im

I think it's more the size of the data rather than digital vs analog. you could have digital data stored on punch cards or say a large array of dip switches and it would last ages, but the storage density is terrible. Meanwhile disks a

They do have a separate character for animals and objects 它 vs 他/她, though I can imagine learning english and just learning ta = he.

This is what China has done. Aside from drug crimes it doesn't seem like they punish any harsher than the rest of the world, they just have an incredibly good ability to follow up. If you smash the window of a store, they will find you

It is pretty much how China has handled it. It seems like it does actually work if your goal is to fully eliminate drug issues, but it's unacceptably harsh for most countries to palate.

It's not new capabilities, it's new levels of access. Reverse engineering this stuff used to be a very tedious process which required a lot of specialised skill. Which is why most devices haven't been reverse engineered or ha

In the real world the default action for a user when presented with a permissions popup is to accept it because they get asked 20 times a day, have no idea what the implications of it are and just want to get on with their day. So software

This is why most of the browsers rejected these specs. They are super useful, but the security risks are incredible. Most USB devices were not designed to hold up to being exposed to the internet.

The best models for reverse engineering right now are the Chinese ones. You can download them and run them unrestricted right now.

I'm hopeful that in the future we can end planned obsolescence from devices that require companion apps which eventually get shut down. Just vibe reverse engineering replacements.

Not really, there are a couple of new products like that but they are fairly uncommon and inconvenient. I think there is a real movement to want to use social media and phones less, but I think it's is more likely to come from Apple im

It would be pretty miserable when typically you want like 100+ stickers to hand out at events.

I have a bambulab printer and haven't seen anything like this. The printer doesn't even know what filament you are using unless you are using an AMS + bambulab filament. Maybe you are thinking about the fact that TPU isn't co

I'd be cautious here because you very easily could brick the hardware. For writing a PC driver it's a lot safer since you can just fail repeatedly until it works.

Also verifiable. LLMs shine when they can know when the task is completed correctly. Otherwise they will finish and hand over something that's wrong.

Yeah, but at least currently, openrouter has the latest open source options way faster than AWS does.

Being bored is kind of the point though. You should let yourself be bored sometimes. It's a relatively new phenomenon where we have completely avoided any minute of boredom.

The fan shrouds likely would have been fine. The hot spot on electronics is generally very localised to the chips and drops off sharply as you get further from them. I've printed a 10" home server rack out of PLA which is warm and

There's a mass psychosis going on in companies right now. Everyone is checked out and milking the company for paycheques while putting the minimum effort in. Which is something most people always were doing, but the minimum effort fell

They could have just spent $300,000 in tokens to AI slop rewrite SQLite in Rust.

This seems pretty logical. If a car is stolen, it's fair to allow fast access to it's live location. In the search request they can submit a form saying they are tracking the car after a report it's stolen. The requests can g

IMO it shouldn't need a warrant, but it should require the searcher to fill out a form explaining which crime they are investigating with this search. It can then immediately show them results without approval, but with serious consequ

Security cameras have been internet connected for a lot longer than we had this kind of system where they all have computer vision running and tagging everything in a massive database. They were always internet connected and mass surveillan

In my experience it's always the permissions system where messy real world business has to be translated in to SQL that doesn't lock up the system when some program admin added to 200 teams tries to load the index page. "What

This is what the managers at my company think. But it ends up generating a wall of slop. I always end up scrolling to the bottom and looking for the original customer email or product request that was used to generate the ticket above.

Most vibeslop these days is superficially good in that it has unit tests, compiles, passes the style guide, but it's bad on a macro level in that it makes the system more complicated, ignores the wider design of the app, implements wha

A single bad dev with AI can overwhelm multiple good devs trying to hold back the tidal wave of slop.

I feel like we should be doing something like requiring paying overtime for over 30 hours a week. The complication here is countries are competing with each other as well as internally. That said, most jobs are local, so cheap construction

This is still less safe and less convenient than sandboxing. I want them to be able to run whatever command they want inside the sandbox even if it's traditionally dangerous (overwrites files, etc) because it can't touch anything
