Side note: I'm noticing more and more of these simple, hyperbolic headlines specifically of statements that public figures make. A hallmark of the event being reported is a public figure making a statement that will surely have little

It's all well and good until the MBAs get a hold of it... Technology doesn't exist in a vacuum.

This is very welcome as a parent in the USA. It is also sound legally, and was a long time coming. Nothing of great value is being lost and in a year users will have moved on to something else. There are two positive effects here: 1. A comp

Bluetooth 5.2 was supposed to fix this issue. Indeed, my S22 phone with Jabra Elite 8s sounds great in calls. MacBooks newer than 2023 SHOULD have better call quality. They have Bluetooth 5.3¹. Can anybody confirm this? I have been meaning

Neither are exactly a 1:1 replacement, but check out backblaze and syncthing. A combination (syncthing for device sync, backblaze for offsite backup) might suit you. I was impressed with syncthing when I used it ~2 years ago and I assume it

A 1/8 chance of fixing a bug at the cost of a careful review and some corrections is not bad. 0% -> 12% improvement is not bad for two years either (I'm somewhat arbitrary picking the release date of ChatGPT). If this can be ke

Western American wilderness is different than Europe--it has very few human improvements. Personally I'd love to see it retain that character and I think this is the wrong direction. Imo if you want a European experience you should go

The one counterpoint I'd like to make here is tat. Imo it's better to leave minimal high quality, long lived gear than soft goods that deteriorate over time that can make for a dangerous descent and produce a fair bit of garbage.

Sector67 is still healthy! They have a smart, incredibly dedicated and frugal BDFL who got them through some lean times. I think in general it only works if there is a strong community / third place thing going. I always saw that as th

- Amazing translations (this alone is a game changer) - Language learning... The ability to improvise realistic conversations is huge. I can ask to talk about cooking a specific dish or a sport! - As others have noted, refining documents si

But doesn't this seem like the correct approach long term? Basically shelling out to what essentially amounts to a fact table when it gets a factual question

Why do you program? It won't go away, it'll just be different. You probably don't know x86 or arm instruction sets anyway. This will be a much faster, easier way to manipulate symbolic code. I'm looking forward to being

Nice. I'm going to dig through these tomorrow. Thanks for posting! The PR review helper looks excellent and I'm excited to try it out. Til about `pandoc` and `glow`. I whipped up a nice, performant branch picker last night that I&

I agree this is a stunning clip and a disgusting display of nepotism. But I wouldn't say this clip is stunning (other than the temporal proximity). Sounds like this dude likes to run his mouth. He's bragging about his 3k sqft loft

This is the correct answer. (My org at least) routes these legal requests quite differently and they are all handled promptly

I'm glad that energy is becoming more expensive because I suppose things like this will become economical. Running BOINC during the winter is fun, but the impact is trivial.

Immediately I'm very much looking forward to a day where language learning is like this. No Duolingo gamification nonsense... I want something that remembers what words I know, what words I kinda know and what I should know next and ha

First of all: If you have the title of "DevOps" what you're doing is "Operations", you aren't practicing DevOps. Anyway, this company has had incident after incident. This will keep happening every few years fo

Is reducing the amount of light that these panels receive likely to increase their effective lifetime? Or: Does total energy absorbed dictate decay of solar panels? Does that affect EROI calculations?

If you're interested in brutalist design, I highly recommend "This Brutal World" by Peter Chadwick. While there is definitely a lot of bad brutalist architecture there is also some incredible architecture from this period.

How long has it been running? Have you figured out anything to use it for beyond what other assistants can do yet? I'm very curious as I had the same idea but don't have time to implement...

My wife and I have been using an electric kettle that can be set low (105°F) to heat bottles. It's not perfect, but it's good enough and nice not to have an extra appliance on the counter. We use this OXO kettle: https:/&#x2

I haven't seen a single top level comment that demonstrated a complete reading and understanding. Some even willingly admit an inability to process the information. Funny, because I thought this was actually remarkably good scientific
