I disagree. Based on the author's other posts ( https://charlesleifer.com ) and OSS work -- none AI generated -- they clearly have the technical ability and discernment to use LLM coding agents effectively. This is is somethi

The book has plenty of prurient private-jet-boardgame stuff, but also deals directly with facebook's adoption in Myanmar at at time when the inflammatary online speech was directly fuelling ethnic violence against the Rohingya. It cove

I tripped over the double-entendre of the teaser quote and then found it ironic that the author is a copy writer. >> “AI agents are the future of software development. We won’t need developers anymore to slow down the progress of a bu

I started reading this and it gave a strong whiff of Richard Stallman’s “the right to read” - once dystopian and now a commonplace. Then I started scrolling and thought the author was just verbose like RMS. When it just kept going I was jus

Ha! I remember experimenting with coins on strings as a kid in the early 90s. What a rush when i realized it worked.

xe.com is competitive with wise rates and answers the phone. My KYC/AML journey was brief and they came through within their stated timeframe. However all of the online companies sell the happy path and your experience will be diminish

I live in Washington and bats occasionally wander into our cabin. As others have pointed out, there is a difference between pre-exposure (Vaccination) and post-exposure protocols. The rabies vaccine is given pre-exposure and can be obtained

Thanks for posting. There are many things down this rabbithole and I hadn't seen pico.sh before. The github repo has the sources for the backend, but the services themselves are accessible over https at eg: pico.sh, prose.sh, pastes.sh

I came here to say this. `git gui` is nearly ubiquitous and has saved me for years from learning how to use `git add -p`. I don't use many graphical git tools but its options "stage hunk" and "stage line" are more i

This observation seems unwarranted (and a little unkind). For a voluntary personal project - not to mention one that involves a bit of personal risk/discomfort - they can publish the data in whatever format they please and revise it at

This is a great presentation. A similar project worth mentioning is Voltron, which can decorate your gdb session with accesory windows. (Use tmux for window layout). No experience with this dashboard but looking forward to trying it.

Yes, "do the following experiment" sounds more natural. IMO, "Conduct" conveys precision and is appropriate for more formal writing.

On the contrary, this patent could now be useless even if it doesn't get invalidated: It's expired for future use, and according to Sparkfun's response it can't be asserted against prior infringers because Huawei owned i

One aspect of this defense was failure to mark: A previous owner of the patent produced processors covered by the patent but did not mark them as such. It turns out that systematically not marking your patent on your products invalidates cl

I have been suspicious of their cloud config and run a docker image of the controller locally. I'm still on version 5.14 and all of the cloud features are optional. I just ignore them. I guess now I know not to upgrade!

Thanks for the throwback. We LOVED the collect call thing as teenagers too cheap to drop a quarter into the phone: - "You have a collect call from AtTheStationMyBusLeavesIn18Minutes. Do you wish to accept the charges?" - "No&

I'd be curious to know more about this: are there specific industries or settings where it's used and valued?

+1 for synology NAS. The quality and frequency of updates has been high. I've used both rsync and Time-Machine based backups. And I too like that it's a hardware business model: I have the sense that my purchase(s) fund developmen

I'm a little confused about the mall operator's incentive to do this. Are they using ALPR for their own security and voluntarily sharing the reads? Is the provider giving them a discount to do so or paying to place cameras or some

Those are all machining stations where CNC parts (likely for the instruments) would be cut. The guy in the front has a boring day ahead of him, watching the chip conveyor delivering waste material into the dumpster.

I recently implemented something like this, albeit for a research-use-only device. We used an embedded intel board with separate PCAP touchscreen connected to the LVDS+USB interface. X.org supported it out of the box. Out product runs on li

And this is why we shop ikea backwards... walk in the warehouse door, pick up a coffee, find the thing in the catalogue, and skip the showroom altogether.

I loved this review. This is systems biology at its best: simple hypotheses let us build models that explain/predict emergent behaviour. How cool to explain that a biological oscillator can produce periodically repeating structures du
