I think this is a compelling argument, but I think 2 issues: 1. I remain unconvinced LocalAI can work well for majority of businesses. It looks vaguely comparable on benchmarks, but it tends to be fragile and a lot of management overhead in

It's worth recognising that unlike oyster cards, LFR in it's currently form doesn't store any data. It looks at faces, compares them to currently wanted offenders, and if it matches, alerts the officers operating that camera

This is very naive. 1. The odds of the actual bike itself being covered by CCTV during the theft is pretty slim. Nearby? Sure, but probably not recording the offence. Then unless you're got a precise time window/know where the thi

As a man who always desperately wanted a Sony AIBO (and is now only put off by the bonkers $300 a year AI subscription), I am unduly excited.

Not only "has a high chance of working", but you can pay more to make it more reliable. It really is striking trying to run a harness openClaw thing on a smaller or quantised model, really makes you realise how much we take for gr

This seems silly. Signal is great, let's not all start spinning up our own dedicated, not interoperable national messenger applications.

Do you not think Western democratic culture isn't superior to, say, fundamentalist Islam, Soviet style communism, or even totalitarianism in the current Chinese mold?

Well, one is a thing that has happened, and one is a thing that hasn't happened.

The word you're looking for is dictatorship, and it is not new.

As a society, we broadly agree shops should check ID before selling kids alcohol. It is not that crazy to extend that online.

As everyone has learnt the hard way, when you have a long to-do list, you will be tempted to suddenly spring clean your room, and it will make you temporarily feel productive... but it will not, in fact, shrink your to-do list. Making an

... are we saying government should never use any corporate to deliver services? Not Outlook? No Google Workspace? No AWS? I am so confused.

I imagine this is the argument police officers used when they refused to use body cameras.

Send Palantir engineers to vault over the data centre wall and extract it on a USB stick like James Bond, presumably.

I mean, for comparison, the UK Gov "Integrated Data Service" costed around £250m and delivered literally nothing. Building software for and integrating 200-ish NHS trusts, who generally have their own cloud/tech stack etc, is

Yes, it seems very unlikely this is Copilot rather than Raycast, short of some very unexpected weirdness. I cling to that hope, anyway.
