The project would benefit from explaining the test setup. From what I can tell (from code), the machine is probably well under capacity, so I am unsure about how to interpret the results.

If you consider that a pixel is a container for RGB value, then the length and area collapse into simple storage requirement. When an image is some px wide and some px high, it provides a shape (ratio between them), because a camera of 12me

This is very interesting. I have not tested it (yet) but I believe this is what will come next when talking about "AI will be everywhere". The self-contained disconnected mode is very convenient, though it could be useful to have

You can also guide the AI to organize the codebase according to some principles and attempt to untangle the mess. But I totally agree on the fact that it will probably look like just any other frontend.

by simon84 16d ago
My own guess would be that what matters most for the frontend is UX (and accessibility). So if you are able to properly evaluate the outcome, it is probably fine. It will also depend on the type of frontend and its target complexity. From w

Did you consider that star growth stalling could mean product maturity? We always want more stars, but if your innovators user base (those that try at the early days and give stars) is now turning to average users that will use the product

While I agree on the fact, this is the typical case where you need a business analyst in between to 'translate' that requirement and confront the leadership if it is unclear. If you mean that leadership IS the business analyst, th

From what I understand of the not-very-detailed text watermark, it comes up to masking the generated output with specific bias in the weights of the token generation (or something like this). Anthropic was explaining that it would survive e

I think you are very correct here! Now imagine how much worse it can get with AI in the way. It is as always (think cybersecurity) the cat and mouse game, what is a weapon is also a defense. You, the simple fact that you are on this very si

The goal of the AI act is not to determine if an "oh yeah!" comment was AI generated. The target is long papers that falsely claim human review and can have real significant consequences. E.g. research paper, law makers, lawyers,

Real +1 for being transparent about the imported libraries and respective owner/license.

I think that part of the problem is that you try to apply this to low level variables. If you consider a framework on top of any existing language that provides serialization mechanics that include metadata about the item, then you can appr

I was not aware of this website, nice discovery I wonder if they did vet their own process through the same channel: "The 'IsThisBS' process can be trusted to reflect accurate BS evaluation" BS or not BS ?

It would be great to understand better your motivation and expectations from it. I got in touch once with the committee I after requalifying them as a proper sales team I ran away...

Clever trick, but not great for accessibility and screen readers.

D) is notably the one mixing best vertical and horizontal view. I guess we are used to a horizontal layout, some try to be bold with completely vertical but it won't be easy to identify in my wallet. So I would grant D) that fine balan

I am wondering what type of workload this is for. They give a tiny example and insist on micro, fast start, but the say it lasts up to 8 hours and is up to 16 vCPU. What sort of app require faster boot (than lambda or ec2), but only for a l

I see the article focuses on tasks and things to do or not do. These are primarily driven by skills of the junior. Though you should expect they have none. What sort of comes out between the lines is the attitude of the person, and I think

You are correct, better concede than argue. What I meant was a tangent: the HTTP was designed with a strong assumption that the application implementing it (the web server) would be the one providing the logic. Hence all the RFC terminology

by simon84 3mo ago
This whole thing is non sense. It basically mixes technical constraints (body or not body) with a functional requirement that arises from people that are tied to semantics of the protocol. HTTP is transfer protocol. It should not ever imp

We have long passed the point where there is more AI generated content than authentic human content. That will soonish spiral into uniformity and degradation (see the experiments where image generation is recursively trained on generated im

The idea is good, but the proposal falls in the same trap. The best case would be to issue whatever method is specified in the "method" attribute. At the moment, it suggests to add support for PUT, PATCH, DELETE because that is th

Is it a full blown browser with support for all capabilities (basically a web-view with no title bar?) or does also it attempt to block all fatigue-related bloat, ads, moving parts, auto-play videos,...?

It is all about the power of statistics and the un-humanly conceivable processing power we grant it. I like the dream analogy framing as it avoids to personify an algorithm. Though, the article may somewhat underrate the quality of the drea

Indeed, this is ridiculous for a country that says no beer before 21. Arguing that children will learn to bypass the age restriction is equally founded as for alcohol.

This is the reason SBOM is an attempt to force documenting dependencies. It will not solve everything but it helps. Other than that, it is a reponse to one's laziness to import a full library to use only one method... it is part of m

EU companies are judged guilty of negligence because backups were not totally disconnected (even though distant site) and ransomware did destroy them. So that is starting to dig deeper than a plain mistake. I guess we will soon-ish witness
