nice, but did you expect it to not work on Safari (WASM fails)?

Sorry, I'm going to be a downer. I've been around for a long time too, saw many formats come and go (even contributed to some myself). I think Markdown is super neat and handy, but this statement "The trillion-dollar AI indus

Do you trust the seller on AliExpress selling the OpenWRT One router? OpenWRT links directly to it (from https://openwrt.org/start ): https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005007795779282.html

From a technical perspective there is so much you can do to secure things, including against theft. While it's hard to lock things down past 99.9% usage, it is not too hard to make token issuance secure enough for practical, wide-sprea

The proposal is for SIGNED tokens i.e. only the govt can issue them, and you need a govt issued ID to generate them. The latter mechanism allows rate limiting. This fixes the problem you outline.

I agree the naming is a mess. There is the Australian Digital ID system ( https://www.digitalidsystem.gov.au/how-the-system-works ) which allows third party providers. Whatever the capabilities of the Australian government I

That's the problem. The new norm will be 10x of pre-AI productivity, nobody will be able justify hand-writing code. And until the quality bar of LLM's/their successors get much better (see e.g. comments above looking at the d

There is also likely to be increased pressure in a SE job to produce more code. You'll find that if others use AI, it'll be hard to be a hold-out and hit fewer delivery milestones, and quality is hard to measure. People are reward

Agreed, that this is a limited scope for what AF does. Nevertheless, it seems interesting to confirm that its primary strengths are memorization, which is not surprising.

the relay is of the radio signal, there is no inspection or tampering of the relayed messages. basically, the extender tricks the car into thinking the fob is closer than it is.

I think one angle the parent may have intended is that immigration increases labour supply and thus depresses wages. This argument ignores the fact that immigration generally grows an economy and in many countries it's a critical drive

I imagine people are vaguely aware of the degree of difficulty for different countries, but your point stands that most people with a reasonable standard of living prefer to avoid the upheaval of emigrating.

Unfortunately for you, your conservative peers in the US don't want foreigners like you to immigrate.

For me the main benefit is tasty consumption of vegetables that I would otherwise probably not eat in their raw state, or in the quantity I'd like e.g. a fave is carrot, apple, ginger, spinach and broccoli. If you believe the numerous

It's already happening. Imagine delivery of high-value, light goods to remote locations, e.g. medicines in the Australian Outback, or island off the German coast. These are examples of what has already been done.

I welcome our robot overlords. I do wonder, however, who's going to do quality assurance on these cars. The first startup launching MVP driverless cars with a horrible accident record will set back the industry for years.

I have a fair degree of trust in Google's solution. Somewhere out there is a stealth startup hacking a solution running with an Arduino, webcam and cheap servo motor that can control your car for a fraction of the cost. I feel safer already

I quite agree that it takes trust. We do have a demo up for a safe hands-on with the product (demo.fluent.io). We certainly take your privacy seriously. Here's a bit more on that: http://fluent.io/privacy.html
