If you've accidentally become a persona non grata, then obviously because you've not exercised sufficient self-censorship. This is real already. Recently saw a petition for EU to rein in big tech (there are several…
Pretty much the same here. A happy Ubuntu user for 4 years now. Here and there, there's still minor issues, but nothing a quick search or AI can't help you with. And we're hackers here after all.
For me that was already with the original DALL-e. It was utterly mindblowing, I was like "oh shit, AI is here". "Draw a picture of a unicorn on the moon". And it did that. The model really "understood" what you told it.…
Veracrypt e.g. has had this for a long time. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plausible_deniability
I'm considering using a second phone for increased security. As you say, only put banking apps on them, leave it at home. The larger population is getting pushed towards banking on the phone, and on top of that, many…
In Western Europe this is also quite pronounced. In Białystok, Poland, solar noon is at 11:39. In Vigo, Spain, it's at 13:46, . Being in favor of all-year DST (more sun in the evening is just nice), nice to see that…
Started the Visual Basic dev env, added a button to the form, MsgBox "Hello World", and it worked. So simple, so easy. Those were the days.
It looks like the difference between the Boston Dynamics robots 2016 vs 2021 The Spot dog (which inspired the Black Mirror "Metalhead" episode) in 2016 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tf7IEVTDjng Atlas doing backflips…
The good thing is, with AI scraping everything today, it will be incorporated into the AI - so your content will continue to exist in the weights. In that way, your thoughts will live on ...
My favorite: near the Bering strait you can see the distortion of the map - obviously ships go in straight lines on a sphere but in a curve on the map.
As you say, in moderation. That also applies to red meat, considering the adverse effects listed on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_meat
The compression is nice, you can fit very long (low-entropy ;-) messages in there - this one is 9k characters: https://textarea.my/#7cGBAAAAAMMgzfmTHORVAQAAAAAAAADAuwE=
Very nice, the introduction to recursion in university (which was around that time of the year) was drawing a fractal Christmas tree
Writing this on a first-gen 13 DIY, so it's already a bit dated. I've already added additional RAM and swapped in a much bigger SSD (really underestimated how much space you need if you heavily use docker and VMs). The…
Lots of normal people don't think it's fine. Lots of parents limited their kids' TV (television, you know) time back in the day (mine sure did, thanks mum and dad, even though I didn't particularly approve of the…
Its sister tunnel - the Semmering Base Tunnel [0] - is scheduled to be completed in 2030. These two combined greatly reduce the travel time from Vienna to Graz and Klagenfurt (combined 1h 15m time saving). You don't…
Good to see that there's new episodes and they've still got their mojo - putting it on my list.
For the other non-native speakers wondering, "fly" means your trouser zipper. He surely has his fly closed when cutting through the hype with reflection and pragmatism (without the extreme positions on both sides often…
You'd be surprised how many people run 'npm i' in their CI. I've seen this on multiple occasions. 'npm ci' is some mitigation, but doesn't protect against getting hit when running 'npm i(nstall)' during development.
Would an airtight container and liberal addition of dessicants help?
Really funny on a farm when you see young calves "kissing" i.e. stick their noses/mouths together and lick each other's noses.
The manual for a human body says several hours of exercise per day. Children try to follow it, but it's being made hard for them, and by the time you're an adult most have learned to forget the natural instincts for…
Not to give any ideas, but a likely outcome is a US-based fork that has the offending bias removed, with a "ministry of truth"-y name.
That's certainly not the only (and I'd also not put it as primary) reason for extending the lifespan. Still, breaking one's hip in advanced age is often a death sentence as many people never get out of bed again. When…
This is fun - and really powerful. In some way, multicellular lifeforms (like a cherry tree or a human) also have to contain a kind of formulation like this so that they result in the fractals of branches and blood…
