I use this Firefox feature for floating video, always playing in the corner of one of the monitors.

When I'm working, I only watch in my peripherals, if at all. Mostly I like listening to the film soundtrack, effects, and more or less indistinct human voices.

Somewhat counter-intuitively, I focus better this way, compared to having "silence" - because I have sensitive hearing, any slight or distant sound in the real world environment distracts my attention. I wear noise-cancelling headphones, whether any audio/video is playing or not.

I have a little shell script for taking notes from the terminal command line. I use it throughout the day to to chronicle the endless number of ideas that flow through the brain. The notes go into a plain-text/Markdown journal file.

Before I started this practice a few years ago, I used to feel anxious that so many good ideas and thoughts were getting lost. Now, I just dump everything into notes as fast as I can type them in. Then I can set them aside, forget them and move on with my brainstorming.

Occasionally I review the journal, and copy the best parts into project or subject-based Markdown files.

If you follow their web evangelists on Twitter and read the WebKit weblog, it’s been mentioned before.

I’m pretty confident that some version of iOS 16 and macOS Ventura will support AV1.
> Vmware enabled fast self-provisioned VMs and nobody called them cloud

Because it’s missing all the glue. I need to self-service the VMs, the database, the load balancer, the dns records, certs, and hook them all up so I can receive production traffic all via an API I could theoretically do in Terraform.
However, the evidence that Ecohealth Alliance refuses to share their Wuhan lab notebooks “explains away” other beliefs.

You're missing an important vulnerability of this tech. The model was trained on copyrighted material. There are enormous pressures to close and stop this.

You can't predict future legislation. Intellectual property legislation (which is an absolute cancer IMO) can outlaw models and their results. It can outlaw distribution of the data sets, the training, the models. Tech companies already acted way beyond the requirements of the law and effectively censured open source projects like popcorn time.

Can they prevent a determined hacker which already got everything? No.

Could this be the last model to be trained on a wide dataset, available to the public? Yes.

Could they make it a living hell where getting these tools in the future will only be from untrustworthy websites where half the download buttons give you an exe, and all your less tech savvy friends won't bother? Easily.

Could this tool become impossible for companies to use without risking litigation? Very easily.

People tend to forget those making the rules do not have their interests at heart, and every single intellectual property law is designed to leave companies and not people holding all the rights. And those laws can absolutely do damage. Do not underestimate the power of legislation.
>Some chipmakers don't appear to have got the memo and are pushing ahead. Micron, for example, recently announced a $100 billion chip fab destined for New York state.

Yeah, and Intel announced similar for Ohio...and how is that going. A lot different to announce an eventual fab than to actually invest that money next year (which is the TSMC portion of the story).
I think what they're saying is if you tell people there's an economic downturn, and they believe you, that creates the downturn. Employees will be reluctant to switch away from a stable big company job for fear of layoffs at startups. Investors will play it safe and avoid risky bets of the kind that could disrupt Amazon's businesses. And so on.

Jeff may as well be saying "our competitors are uninvestable" but that would be too obvious and be discounted.
I wouldn't call Stable Diffusion "Open Source AI", the training data isn't publicly released under open source licenses. I like the Debian Deep Learning Team's Machine Learning policy for evaluating these things:

I love the idea of editing on an iPad if it means not always having to carry a laptop around, especially on set or while out shooting. But there’s a pretty significant roadblock preventing that workflow- there’s still no way to get your footage off of your camera and on to an external drive (to plug into the iPad) without a laptop.
Indeed, they're really just turning cities into the human equivalent of factory farms. I haven't been to Barcelona but some other cities in East Asia which are like that, and once you get over the novelty, you realise how suffocating it feels to live in such an environment.

No thank you indeed; I normally stay far away from the cores of cities precisely because of that atmosphere, and if stuff like this keeps happening to them, it looks like I'll remain so for the forseeable future.

Oh god, I have yet to figure out what it even wants. I assume it is asking me to close firefox to run an update, but I do and nothing is run. And apt upgrade doesn't somehow catch it?

It's amazing that they're managing to make it so confusing that someone who wrote .xsession files can no longer understand it without doing a bunch of research. This shouldn't be tricky... that message, in particular, is absurd. Why would you show that and then not have a button that says "update"?
Safari Developer Preview is stable and available out of sync with the OS.

It does make sense that it is shipped with the OS since Safari is just a wrapper around the OS WebKit library which is used across many apps and services.

Instacart Shelves Plans for 2022 IPO, Citing Market Turmoil
His answers on reddit are downvoted and the redditors are correctly pointing out that most of these "protections" smack of the fact that his investors want to stop giving things away and to close up source / resources for better monetization strategies.
Well, it clearly wprks for a whole lot of folks and I'm not really in a position to critique it too much.

However, I play a lot of musical instruments in various semi-professional capacities (on stage for money, but not enough to live off of) including pedal steel guitar, piano, clarinet, trumpet, double bass, cello, drums, accordion, among other stuff.

Every instrument has issues.

If the flute works it works, but I have an okay sliver armstrong flute I am supposed to re-pad and return to my mother, and after playing through the Rubank beginner's book I feel like the ergonomics aren't good at all.

Like, I gave myself a wrist injury learning trumpet and trumpet still feels like a way more ergonomic device.

If it doesn't bother you then I can't argue with ya. But as someone who has a whole pantheon of badly-designed instruments to look at it's easy for me to say it's not my favorite. I spend a lot of time with a clarinet lately and can see the value in a vertical flute.
The US seems to be one of the few markets where iOS is used by a majority of users.
What I don't understand is why this is simply normalized. My friends in the Bay Area refuse to leave anything in the trunk of their own car, even if no one has seen them put it in the trunk in the first place.

How is this okay?
only because there's no `default` case.

You could argue that having `sound` as an array, and index into that array is better, but once again, what does "better" mean here?

this code works as is, you will not get an array index out of bounds error. If this is quick and easy to write, what else could you ask for?
AGPL doesn't work for modern day problems. The problem you have is that you are developing an open source bit of infrastructure and your only method of profiting is your own hosted version giving people the option of getting it for free and managing hosting, or letting you do it for a small profit.

Then Amazon comes in and sets up their own even easier hosting while providing none of the profits or development effort back to the original project. The AGPL is no problem because Amazon is fine to publish any changes they make, thats not an issue because the real product is the hosting and not the code.
It would be fair if one were to conclude that I don't like iOS. But my comment made a few different points, including about google's app quality, not only forcing default apps but also disallowing user choice where it should exist in a pervasive, hard to see way (for the end user), and invasive tracking.

Frankly, over the last week I have been looking into whether there is a relatively straightforward way to write an app for a mobile linux, because I am at the point I am willing to get rid of several common apps, such as banking apps, to get off this nauseating hamster wheel.

If you don't start by pushing the cars out of the neighbourhoods and making them more human-friendly then transit is DoA - no-one will choose transit over driving door-to-door when they don't have to pay for the externalities of the latter. Yes, you probably do have to include some amount of parking at the edges of the superblock initially, and you probably have to build up your transit network in tandem with making your city more walkable. But small walkable neighbourhoods that you gradually expand are the only way to bootstrap it.

Note that you don't have to replace car commuting to reduce car use on the margins. Most car journeys are short, e.g. going to the nearest shop, or taking children to/from school, and a superblock with parking on the edge can mean people don't drive for those journeys even if they still commute by car. Getting a household to go from 2 cars to 1 is just as much of a win as getting a 1-car household to eliminate it completely.

> And then if you have the transit, do you need the superblocks - lots of walkable cities with streets open to cars.

Such as? Where I live (Tokyo) most streets are "open" to cars in that a car can drive down them, but they're narrow with low speed limits and cars are expected to give way to pedestrians, which is much the same as on the inside of a superblock. You can't make a walkable city without putting walkers first.

If you suspect ageism, try interviewing at large companies whos primary business is not tech. Ive rejected candidates who struggled with the basics, for not explaining their thought process, constantly interrupting me (or arguing),not listening to my guidance, some even ran the interview and didn’t think it was worth their time to solve the questions. You have to be able to do the job but also, we have to feel we can work with you and you can adapt to our codebase without having to justify every past decision to you. It’s amazing to me how many people I would have hired had they just worked through the problem step by step, communicated, and taken my feedback seriously. It seems to me there is a serious lack of basics and communication skills out there. I suspect none of the candidates were aware of their mistakes. I never ask trick/FAANG style question. However, I have noticed more junior team members are ruthless with their judgement during the interview process. Find a company with an older demographic, and treat the interview as a peer work session. Whatever you do, don’t give up.
Adam Savage went to that company and had some doohickey scanned.

My experience with Stable Diffusion is that it has a habit of tripping the NSFW filter - as in, it actually generated NSFW images - on prompts that were entirely innocuous. Would not be surprised if Stability has a huge "how do we get it to stop spitting out porn so easily" problem.
Noticed people would often send out confidential email to the wrong person because they'd click the wrong auto-complete entry when they shift. This thing reads your email, figures out you meant to click the other "Bob", and warns you. And my place of work can't use it as it's too regulated and requires a bunch of SOC2 stuff that I haven't done.
I believe Lenovo is, but it's been a while since I've actually looked it up.
Hey, I thought it's fun. I'm surprised my top personality trait is so ambivalent, at least in the sense that horoscopes are usually pretty positive overall to my limited knowledge.

For fun I ran it on some of the interesting people I've noticed on this forum, there's not _too_ much variety in traits (or product suggestions for that matter), though obviously my sampling method is biased.
Thanks for the lols. Unfortunately not accurate at all, I've found more rings of truth in actual horoscopes (libra). Mildly disappointing but I think that's just me being spoiled by incredible AI progress elsewhere. In theory I would think a better model should be able to spit out something that correlates a lot closer with one's OCEAN traits from even small writing samples.
Honestly, it's not that bad. I find that once I'm properly bundled up, outdoor temps between 20° and 30° are downright comfortable. It's not until about 15° that you get the cold that just seeps in everywhere, and it rarely gets that low in Chicago (at least at any time of day I'd be walking outside).

Companies have a similar problem now with AI than what the music labels had with Napster and MP3s in the 90's. Music labels tried very hard to legislate the problem away but it failed. I remember Metallica's Lars Ulrich working hard to fight it. They finally embraced the change. If it can't be done in the U.S., it will be done in some other country. That country will have the competitive advantage.

We'll go thru the same with AI but ultimately it won't be stopped. As long as there's no world wide coordination limiting its impact, AI will continue its course.

Github copilot has actually been incredibly useful for me.

Writing boilerplate and starting new files was always so slow/boring, but copilot kinda helps me continue my flow (even when its suggestions are completely wrong).

Fair warning that sometimes its suggestions are subtlety wrong so you still need to read it over - but since it’s there my mind immediately jumps to verifying it as opposed to the risk of distraction when having to type things from scratch with limited autocomplete.
They can and do fight dirty. They don't only use legal tactics, they use legal options to get the information off from trustworthy sources.

Like torrents, you first have to resort to random websites who get randomly taken down as they acquire reputation. If a person takes the face and responsibility for something, he gets litigated into oblivion.

So you get to the point where trustworthy and untrustworthy sources are indistinguishable

.
Now what they do is create untrustworthy sources. Like time for popcorn. Sow discord.

Fork several times, create intentionally malwared versions of both the program and the website. Keep kicking off the trustworthy sources of search engines, while magically skipping takedown requests for the less trustworthy websites.

Find ways to break old versions if possible, just to force them to keep moving. (they can make gradio randomly change APIs just to break the old trustworthy versions)

All of this can happen.
I think there's still benefit in using Nix for imperative package management, as the packages are isolated. This means you don't need to clutter your global environment with the dependencies of your programs.

You need more than one specialist because they need to be allowed to get sick and take vacation. And once you have multiple dev teams it’s not economical to staff each team with multiple expensive specialists. So you put them on their own team and structure it organizationally so the devops team is an extension of every team. The devops team keeps up with all the work every team is doing and reacts accordingly as well as being a resource each team can tap.

Crucially, you don’t put any kind of ticketing system or similar in between.
