Most recently it was the configuration app for my keyboard firmware, and then video calling in FB messenger (that one might work in other browsers besides Chrome. I didn't dig too much).

I never intentionally used any AI features in Chrome but first was made aware of the models when my disk was running out of space. I investigated with a disk usage tool and found I had multiple versions of the model in my Chrome directory t

I use Firefox as my main browser but occasionally run into Chrome requirements for certain web apps so end up begrudgingly installing it. I'm in the habit of going straight to the chrome flags page and turning off all this junk exactly

I pay mainly because a really like being able to play the videos in iOS pip background mode. I do find it crazy that Apple allows that OS level feature to be paywalled by apps.

Consciousness isn't a requirement for potentially dangerous behavior. When the science fiction the probabilistic models are trained on tend towards "AI uprising" and you give them the tools to do it, the probability machines

I keep seeing people dismiss this as an exaggerated danger because the bots are only pretending to be sentient and we're a long way off from AGI. The whole sentience debate is irrelevant. If people start giving these bots real resource

How does lifetime elision affect performance? I thought the compiler just inferred lifetimes that you would have had to manually annotate. Naively, it seems to me that the performance should be identical.

Anyone who's done some vibe coding can imagine what a mess a vibe coded operating system is going to be with current day tools. LLM agent coding is good at making small prototype web apps and the like but trying to apply it to signific

I just noticed last week that Chrome was putting multiple versions of some 4GB AI model [1] on my hard disk that I'd never asked for, so when I upgraded my laptop I took the opportunity to switch to Firefox, and now this. My image of M

Kudos to Raspberry Pi for addressing the known issues with a new stepping in just a year! I feel like that's a pretty great turn around for errata that they could have pointed to the workarounds for and delayed this indefinitely with n

The "important notes" section on the Japanese page[1] says that you can disable / delete an address at any time and create a new one. If I used this I would rotate every so often and at a minimum for each move. I'm a bit

This is awesome. I've had similar ideas but wasn't able to do any prototyping yet as I only have Pico 2 boards that don't expose the CSn pin in the pinout. Rather than UART booting every time I thought it might be nice to use
