A lot of snarky replies to this comment, but the reality is that if you were selling an anti-virus, identified a malicious virus, and then chose not to update millions of your machines with that virus’s signature, you’d also be in the wrong

The technology isn't new, at all. In fact, I wrote the announcement blog post https://www.plume.com/homepass/blog/give-your-home-a-sixth-s... on Plume's website almost 4 years ago. https://www

I also know someone at Amazon who “dogfooded” one! I saw one, single, semi-valid use case, which is that it was a decent way to intermittently check up on your pets without setting up multiple cameras… but obviously not worth it at nearly $

The US DOT publishes "Mishandled Baggage" statistics. These lump together lost and damaged, but for example states that Delta was around a 1 out of 256 chance to get "mishandled"... so, I'm not sure if the stats on

If this type of fine-tuning severely harms the general-purpose capabilities of the model, why is it advantageous versus using a slimmer model more suited to your goal from the start? I guess I don't fully grok the paper.

Ah, that is a very important distinction. Thanks for clarifying! For my purposes, the passphrase storage works fine, but I can see how the vault could be a useful feature.

1Password is still around? I used to love it, then they changed the app, pricing schema, UX, and generally made things worse overall.

They released XP well into Windows 7, I'm surprised that there's that much incompatibility with modern versions of windows when running software.

Getting controlled substances is such a nightmare in the USA. Prescribers can't have renewal scripts, they can't prescribe for more than 30 days at a time on a single script...

You are very incorrect, but there's no point in going back and forth on this given how far off we are on claims. Suffice it to say I have talked, personally, to enough bippers to understand that there are 'spotters' and &#x27

The "time" it would take to do a Bluetooth scan? What are you talking about? There are free apps that will instantly show Bluetooth signal when walking past.

That seems about right? I use Netlify to deploy my own 11ty static site, and it costs $19/month, plus there's no WYSIWYG editor like Squarespace.

Even if it was lightning-fast, it never was a game changer, as it has very low quality of output.

Do the Pixel Buds not have a Find feature? I have the same experience as you with Tile, but I use the "Find" feature on my iPhone to locate my AirPods all the time.

Doesn't seem like you are very informed on how LLMs work, but just so you know, there are many different versions of Claude, just like how ChatGPT can use different versions of GPT.

There were 112 heroes available at that time. It's also worth noting that two of the heros chosen for OpenAI to use, Viper and Sniper, are considered some of the mechanically 'easier' heroes, as they rely primarily on autoatt

The Community Notes feature was called "Birdwatch" and was launched in 2021. Elon took over in late 2022, and renamed the feature in early 2023.

I feel like this is really what killed the scooter companies. Either you have enough need to use one for commuting/etc. that you just buy your own, in which case you always know where it is, know it's in good condition, charged, e

Unrelated question to the article: “They were absolutely petrified,” Jain said of his wife and daughter. “If we were on a 70-mile-per-hour highway, and this would have happened, that would have been catastrophic.” Is it normal for people in

Am I alone in thinking this is a little strange? If my teenager decided to live their life in a comic book costume, or cosplaying and pretending to be an anime character, I would say they are too attached. There are YouTubers like "Rep

Most savings accounts pay 5%+ now, I agree that holding your cash under your mattress is not the play, but that's very different than gambling on risky options or even riskier cryptocurrencies. Your second point makes zero sense - BTC

This website's automatic "subscribe" popup/prompt, which appeared in the center of the screen, covered all content, and had "404" in the middle of it, made me think I had clicked a broken link. Awful design.

Sam Bankman-Fried was tried in the US, where we don't have barristers. You may find yourself less confused if you brush up on the basics of the American legal system.
