I don't know what the obsession with recursion either, for lack of a better term, I see this trend recur with other LLMs when they're talking about other mumbo jumbo like "quantum anomalies" or "universal resonance&

my hypothesis is they trained it to snake case for lower case and that obsession carried over from programming to other spheres. It can't bring itself to make a lowercaseunseparatedname

eventually I bet someone'll put a sd cassette in one and we'll be back to square one. I enjoy my atrac discman with writable disks, fits a lot of music but I'm not going to pretend I use it more than my phone

A silent crisis unfolding in the US in the past years has been the consequence of "whole-word" reading and "common core math". These styles prioritized the stragglers that should have been held back or paid more attentio

The purpose of AI, in my opinion, is to make sense of a lot of information that is not well-organized, it is the next generation of statistics but also an interface for the layperson to address this data without training. In doing so, it ca

has kai's market share been decreasing now that the barrier to entry for android is lower? Is facebook trying to move their capabilities in-house? What gives?

KDE does this well though, just make the configuration system modular so in settings you can download, install and manage someone else's windowing and styling from within the system settings panel. Perhaps that wouldn't work so we

if you do not wish to install another app, check "increase contrast" in the mac settings under accessibility>display. it will draw borders around windows and text entries. Much welcomed.

I love their mechanism where one opens the device and removes a screw to unlock it. Very novel and honestly kind of fun.

If you're not accustomed to it, arm computers have no BIOS/UEFI boot selection and usually require a custom bootloader to load a new OS. I remember many fun hobby projects of old with x86 where I could take an old x86 appliance an

My pessimism is that with their coming clamp-down on external sources for -installing- "sideloading" apps https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45736479 this os may be somewhere between macos and ipados in terms of

Could one not use a bi-walled inflatable, then pump some media into the walls for rigidity and resistance to debris? I imagine some sort of aerated semi-flexible cement like material could fill the walls and prevent catastrophe if the outer

seeing projects like https://github.com/jonasstrehle/supercookie kind of fill me with a dread about just how many holes would need to be plugged in the web for "privacy" to be assured, and how that would degr

exactly. The real shame of these devices is they're 99% of the way there but that last inch of running x script requiring you to whip out a form-identical device that has been blessed with the ability of running uncertified code is mad

perhaps that's what they're developing all these "private compute" servers for. Though I would be less than happy if Apple, the last (relatively) untaken hill of the SaaS enshittification wars were to go down that road.

I've used it as well as an x86 phone running macos and an ipad mini on a lark for a week, at this point in my life as much as I complain, imessage is basically the only secure communication mechanism I can get most people to use

On the contrary, I'm sure they'd be more than happy to part with macbooks if they could retain their developers. But then you could probably kiss your binary freedom goodbye.

I already use a-shell to run python scripts that fetch media, news summaries, server dashboards etc. It's really a shame I can't actually do what I want like with android where I could make custom permanent free apps for myself an

Looking into this point further, I'll agree. I shouldn't have acted on an anecdote without verifying first. The other fact though is one that I'm certain of.

Frankly, I think it's a shock that number's even at half, most houses I've been in across the country at sometimes have a network tv box but usually have a router, I don't think I've seen a "cable box" in
