I think it's my stage of life (40s with kid) where finding the time to watch a movie is often too hard. But reading the review is only a few minutes.

Highly likely we'll have different tastes, but the last two movies I watched were The Drama and Pillion. Greatly enjoyed them both. Just a heads up, maybe don't watch Pillion with your parents/kids though...

I often enjoy reading movie reviews more than watching the movie they review, even when I do enjoy the movie. I can't usually describe that well why I did or didn't like a movie, so it's fun when I read a review that does put

From the TRM methodology: 1. excludes proceeds from crime that originate in fiat and later transfer into crypto 2. exclude transfers to blockchain addresses that have not been attributed to illicit activity 3. excludes laundering of illicit

I must say absolutely hilarious video. The "persona" of the dog is great. As someone who is generally pretty "keep your AI out of my art" this looks very fun to play. I can imagine this being cleverly integrated as a pri

There are many more possibilities than that. For example, OpenAI did not explicitly tell the model to hack HuggingFace, but "accidentally" left some context permitting (or not explicitly forbidding) certain tools and designing a p

Thanks for sharing! I remember thinking pre-kids mostly about how much work they would be but not really considering the joy they bring too. Like I knew they would, but vastly underestimated what effect that would have on my life. I don&#x2

I have almost no experience of archery and this annoyed me. So many close shots of Odysseus or other soldiers limply firing arrows that look like they'd barely make it five feet. But the next shot is a soldier getting barrelled off his

Funny you mention LotR, coming out of the theatre after watching The Odyssey I thought "man, if only Peter Jackson had made this". The landscapes were often gorgeous, but otherwise I thought it was all a bit dull unfortunately. Ca

I had been using LineageOS + microG for many years on my Pixel 3. I upgraded to a Pixel 8 and tried out GrapheneOS and the install experience was good, but I found some odd performance quirks - apps would be slow to install and run, downloa

It appears to use a lot of memory too, at least in Firefox. I can't have more than a few Linear tabs open at a time.

Boring isn't it? Reading half a book every single day. Not for him though, he loves it.

There's a lot in here that I which I knew more about. You often hear about think tanks in Australia, and know they have political leanings but I wasn't aware of their precise nature. Shows my ignorance, but the movements between t

I've been using Envoy Gateway in my homelab and have found it to be good for my modest needs (single node k3s cluster running on an old PC). I needed to configure the underlying EnvoyProxy so that it would listen on specific IPs provid

Proton/Wine is so good these days. Rarely have I had an issue running a game in the last 3 or 4 years. Sometimes EA/Ubisoft games that have their own special launchers don't work immediately, but ProtonDB and the Proton GitHu

Agree. It was getting in the way of me spending time with the family because I was distracted mulling over the puzzles. I had thought last year that they could peak the difficulty around the middle of the month and bring it down a bit leadi

In my experience, the people using AI to make programs are still programmers. As in, they were trained in programming pre-AI. Managers are using AI to output manager stuff - documents, spreadsheets, etc. Similarly, marketers are using AI to

It depends on the ORM, I know SQLAlchemy and Django ORM have some Postgres specific features (e.g. full text search/indexing). Some also let you extend the ORM to add your own features, or at least write raw SQL.

When I worked as a pizza delivery guy (favorite casual job I had during uni) we only used those big pizza rocker things, which I think are better than these wheels. Easier to clean too.

I think the syntax highlighting for this could make it more readable. Make the leading `\\` a different color to the string content.

I deleted Twitter years ago as I was getting over it. When Bluesky starting take off it sounded like it was "Twitter but better", so I created an account. Felt just the same as Twitter. Lot's of rage bait, hot takes and tired

There's a term I read about a long time ago, I think it was "aesthetic completeness" or something like that. It was used in the context of video games whose art direction was fully realized in the game, i.e. increases in grap

I take my 18-month old to daycare each morning, before parking my car a few streets away and catching the train into work. It is terrifying to think that one day I might just forget to drop him off. My partner usually picks him up in the ev

Great article. > Don't underestimate the value to your soul of good work. This in particular resonated with me. My concern is not really that AI will take over my job and replace me (if it is genuinely better at my job than I am,
