I know it can be very hard to admit because he’s broadly terrible, but he spent the last 20 years being right on some really, really big gambles, where many experts told us he wouldn’t.

Seriously. I think I saw they just added another “please use the agent chats here!” button. Every updates release notes is like 90% “now with more copilot plz use it.”

I recently made this mistake. It was my own fault. Went looking for a thing, saw some Reddit chatter, decided to try it out. After all the setup and such I realized it was vibecoded and poorly designed. Just monster gaps they obviously didn

I think a bigger issue was that so few applications used it in cool, interesting ways. It has the same appeal as the oled button boxes some people have, except it’s right there on the deck… but nobody did anything with it. I sure did prefer

I think the idea is with ice vehicles you can tax the gas, which is a convenient roll-up summary of the above. But EVs sidestep all that.

Those at least have people whose literal jobs are to protect that stuff. The service, the clients, the transport, the environments, etc. That’s what I don’t have if I self host. That’s not to say anything is bulletproof… nothing useful is…

It does seem like most password managers have no moat for import/export, so I’m kinda banking on the idea that I can quickly migrate to Proton Pass or vaultwarden if things get ugly. I just don’t want to self-host if I can avoid it. St

I learned this less the hard way (and probably for the tenth time) with Anker. I love their 3d printer. It "just works" like none I had before it. But now they've killed their 3d printer business and all their stuff is absol

The ones that are good for more than elaborate auto-complete are pretty hefty, but it can be done. They’re still not Opus behind claude code.

I’m a little surprised that people think drawing is the noble, highly protected pursuit to be done by humans only, and violating that notion is a social crime. But everyone else’s craft? Fuck them. Those are obviously fair game.

They thought of that, but they were still working on hiring a team to maintain the hashing microservice.

I would be quite surprised if there is one, but if there is I would like to know.

They're architecting their company for an agentic future? They're reimaginging the definition of a world-class, high-growth company? They're not resting on the workflows that worked yesterday? blegh What the hell does a

I suppose policing an assembly of strangers is policing an assembly of strangers, both online and in real life.

It’s required here. Same with access to the toilets. I always thought it was weird when traveling to have places like burger king charge you to use their bathroom. It’s uncivilized.

I don’t know about Disneyland but Disney World stops people to search their bags and stuff as it is. I can’t imagine an ID check is the real bottleneck at the gates. And if it was you would think just make ticketing an option… either digita

I was JUST working on this based on the solarpunk forum article that was on Hackaday, yesterday. I was trying to do Enigma with a captive portal wifi setup and a (heavily stylized) terminal in a browser. Figured a pi zero w2 might do the j

This goes for everyone. Some of the biggest AI adopting companies are still shipping garbage (Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, etc), and I’m desperately curious what infinite AI resources are actually doing for them. More reports for accounting?

Yeah, look for HN headlines with forgejo and carrot (iirc). It made a lot of noise in the last couple weeks.

This reminds me of the TikTok ban that lasted all of twelve seconds. I’ve been using the internet for longer than I care to admit, and I’ve never seen anything like it. It was like 300 million junkies all lost their drug supplier at the sam

Forgejo is a thing. But the headlines lately make it sound like it’s not in great shape either.

That’s giving a lot of credit to the New York Post. There’s a non-zero chance they’ll run an article this week about Bigfoot being an agent of the deep state.

The answer is pretty obvious, right? It doesn’t reliably deliver on that promise, and in the meantime they rake billions on unregulated gambling with near zero institutional exposure.

At this point they would have to intentionally hobble them to make them pass as human.

Yeah, New York Post was screaming that it's a miracle. Ars wasn't having it. And the video that was shared looks really unimpressive.

I can’t help wonder what kind of people end up being hired in places like that. Geniuses like I’ve never even met? Weirdly hyper-specialized types? Ambitious con artists? Maybe friends of current employees get to skip the BS gauntlet?

I know you didn’t mean it that way, but boy did that make me feel old. Anyone else remember the bill gates borg category on slashdot?

Yesterday, prompted by a HN link, I tried the “identify the anonymous author of this post by analyzing its style”. It wouldn’t do it because it’s speculation and might cause trouble. I told it I already knew the answer and want to see if it

Seems like it should be cost or replacement cost, but not both.
