There are discussions of "associate membership" but since this is not a thing that exists yet speculation on the matter has ranged from "this is just an economic partnership" to "we are going to become de-facto EU…
Prion diseases are one of the scarier things I've ever heard about. It is transmissible via fluids, but it can also just happen spontaneously in your body, and once that happens, it's basically a death sentence. There…
As soon as I saw that login was required, I closed the tab.
We are routinely implanting pacemakers in people's bodies. I don't think this is fundamentally different. Battery tech used in these devices is most likely very different from consumer electronics and I assume they…
There is a meaningful difference between a generic "load all flag values" call that is identical for all users and some actual telemetry which sends application context to the back-end.
You can have flags work in a pull fashion, though. At boot, and every 5 minutes, query an endpoint which returns flag values. You don't need the client to send any information about what the user is doing.
In Québec, obviously :D
I worked at the provincial government as an intern. We had those keyboards. I'm willing to bet that more than 99% of the Canadian Multilingual CSA keyboards on PCs are used by public servants. There is another (French…
They failed to come up with a strong selling point. Health is the big seller for Apple Watch. But AVP, at its price point, needs something better than "well you can watch movies on a big screen or work in a café while…
You can use the caffeinate command (CLI) to do that, IIRC.
I once tried using Gemini directly in Google Sheets to make a graph. I never managed to get it to do exactly what I wanted; after wasting way too much time on it I was able to fix the problem in a matter of seconds.…
- load-bearing - smoking gun - I found the seam
As is the entirety of using an LLM? If you want something deterministic and efficient you get the agent to write a script, verify it, then run it yourself.
OpenAPI already exists, you can serve it on an endpoint for tool descriptions. Why did we need MCP again?
I have a company-managed Apple account on my work iPhone and Mac. So I beg to differ ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. It is quite nerfed compared to a normal Apple account - for example the App store is effectively disabled and you need some…
Couldn't WASM solve that problem once and for all? Is there some limitation that WASM has that JS doesn't? Disclaimer: I am very inexperienced at front-end development.
Well, it goes both ways. You'll see articles saying essentially "you don't need Postgres or any other fancy database, SQlite is enough" while ignoring the fact that some use-cases warrant a more conventional DB server.…
Maybe they are just for internal use? I doubt Apple is going back on the server market, and given how little they have invested in the Mac Pro, I doubt they are going to make a new version. There is little advantage…
It's been unacceptable for months, but now it's at the level of "we should actively look for alternatives".
Didn't know that tool existed, thanks for that! I assume it's using the development features in order to bypass protections?
Links are also often modified with "hxxps" instead of "https". Link is still clickable but will not work.
Fascinating! So it's a bit like a plate reverb (used in the olden days in audio engineering), but in the MHz range.
There is a technical solution to this - make Amber alerts specifically not bypass do-not-disturb. Others can stay as-is because I want to get woken up in case of natural disaster or other catastrophe. My phone is always…
It is the same in Canada [1] yet I frequently see beer sold in "US pints" over here. I assume they do it so they can advertise cheaper prices (the amount being smaller). Some places will write the glass size in ounces,…
I don't understand what is their thought process. Am I supposed to get up and start driving in hopes of finding the kid(s)? By the time I wake up in the morning, usually, they have been found. Just set it so that it…
