This sounds like "government issue Revolut". Which would be... low-key nice? Not a nefarious scheme, not a revolutionary future of money, just something to replace a certain part of your financial life without tying it…
Of course they care about oil spills - this is why all the oil tankers in the last weeks were attacked when empty.
Peacetime technology from people who ignore the shooting war next door. Do you really want to build your energy system on huge soft targets? This looks much more vulnerable than solar arrays or battery installations to…
Freely available and openly editable maps might be one of the things that we take for granted, but are simply an abberation of a brief period of peace and civility; now we'll return to the default hobbesian state of…
An Apple Watch with a cellular connection, paired with Airpods, fulfills some of the role of a small iPhone - you can make calls, listen to music, and even do some light texting if Siri likes your accent.
The ICE has tanks - can you provide a link? Words have meaning. Maybe some armored cars, but tanks?
Congrats on the release. I was wondering what the zstd team is up to lately. You mentioned something about grid structured data being in the plans - can you give more details? Have you done experiments with compressing…
how do you "take cash" over the Internet?
Dead business? The Mac is something like 30 billion in revenue per year, and 10 billion in profit. The entire "generative AI" "industry" is struggling to reach 30 billion in revenue even with their creative accounting…
they are not talking about perplexity; the endless rumor mill talks about perplexity. The same that has them buying everything from Disney to Porsche to Nike for decades.
I've heard the phrase "through Apple new technologies achieve their final form", possibly not official Apple but one of the Apple choir bloggers (Gruber?). There were smartphones before iPhone, now all smartphones are…
I prolonged the life of my terminally ill dog using EPO. It wasn't exotic or expensive. Probably that means it's already in wide use for humans, too.
The Bulgarian translation I read was a valiant effort by a guy who ran the Bulgarian "science fiction and fantasy BBS". (Yes, that kind of BBS, with the dial-up modems, XMODEM/YMODEM/ZMODEM etc.) (Yes, it was mostly for…
I agree with the experience of assembling something from pieces is valuable. But if you don't want that, there's no need for "online tutorials for beginners" and that shouldn't be counted as an additional appeal. It's…
you're not wrong about most of this, but anti-semitic? he's very openly Jewish
if( price sensitive ) return iPad; else if( know what you're doing and you know it needs a Pro ) return iPad Pro; else // I guess I'll be browsing and watching movies?? return iPad Air;
You have discovered the one real practical application of crypto.
Thanks for sharing this - this will be an inspiration. Everybody knows about FPV quadrocopters used on the battlefield, but there is an increasing focus on terrestrial vehicles. They look nothing like the Boston…
video games are guilty of this too, and the proliferation of Unity and Unreal is partly due to an overoptimization for prototypes
Dude, you’re a bigwig at atlassian. Fix JIRA.
Relatively sensible and privacy-preserving compared to what I first imagined - cameras and AI AI AI
I don’t regularly take buses to the other side of Europe to eat some gelato and gawk at cathedrals for a weekend. A lot of people use cheap airlines as cheap entertainment.
Barely. The Sukhoi Superjet trickles out of the factories, and the other two projects have been delayed again and again.
Nice try, AI trainers.
Quite contrary, people are gleefully machine translating Wikipedia to make more Wikipedia (in different languages). And arguing for it.
