I'm not sure about this. I think that if the weight balance is weird (esp. in the heavy top light bottom scenario - I sincerely hope it's not a thing with this new iPhone), it'll act as a lever and put more strain on your fin

Thinner makes sense if it's consistently thin. I don't get what's the value of thinner with a giant bulge.

My guess is that they can't make it battery efficient (non-Ultra watches barely survive a day just showing a watchface and whirring at notifications, with widgets severely lagging in updates due to extremely tight budgets: e.g. weather

Except it's not a BP monitoring, it's some ML gimmick that detects signs of high BP. If it's like their sleep monitoring (which e.g. thinks I was in a "core sleep" while I was unable to fall asleep so I was sitting

I'm watching it out of a mix of boredom and FOMO-like curiosity. It's such a load of enormous, the best ever bullshit Apple had presented I'm thrilled to frown at it 75% more. And 7-ish years ago I felt genuinely excited abou

To be honest, I don't want a browser. Browsers fundamentally suck, because they never fit the bill perfectly. I want a collection of loosely coupled programs that functionally compose into a user agent application. I'd wish someon

No offense meant, but what's wrong with y'all today, people? Why so many folks in the comments use words in a way that doesn't match their dictionary-intended meanings and even insist that doing otherwise is something... weir

Using the well-established terms according to their intended definitions is surely not maximalism or lack of nuance. (I have no objections against the “source available” though - it’s a pretty unambiguous and useful term, that isolates one

I suspect that this depends on what the code does and where it lives. E.g. some unmaintainable web frontends can be simply discarded and get redesigned and rewritten rather than fixed.

Oh! Thank you! That popup was confusing as hell then, because I've read and understood it as two separate points: I've got it that they're making training opt-out, and that they're changing data retention to 5 years, ind

by drdaeman 1y ago
[Edit: turns out I've got it wrong, and 5-year retention only said to apply to the data they're allowed to train on. This changes things for me.] Personally, I don't mind training, as long as I have a say on the matter - and

I don’t think that’s possible. AV data is behind the TLS layer, all the DPI can see is a CBR stream that matches HTTPS signature. Unless it can do a MitM (Kyrgyzstan-style) they can’t really tell anything about the payload content save from

Not the only, AFAIK Shadowsocks with xray-core can pretend to be a 443/tcp HTTPS server.

I'm not sure whenever it's a good idea to cheer for lack of life-changing technical progress just because it's ran by a company governed by an ethically problematic person. The person is temporary, the progress is permanent.

I believe it’s pretty common to e.g. call libraries’ and frameworks’ user- (developer-) facing interface an API, like in “Python’s logging library has a weird-looking API”, so I don’t think API had eroded to mean only networked ones.

Article talks about "AI" as a buzzword. My understanding is that "AI" here means something much more closer to "market virtue signalling" when every product now has "AI", rather than "cutting-edg

Isn’t there `uv tool run ruff` already for this? Or `uv run ruff` if it’s a proper dependency? I’m not sure what’s the point of a special shortcut command, unless there are plans to make it flexible so it’ll be an abstraction over formatter

I do. Wanted a discrete GPU and ability to run all the games I love on the go, including those that may want a little bit of GPU performance and don't have a macOS port. Can't realistically do this on non-x86.

It’s a marketing strategy that works here and now, but “never” is a very long time. What could be seen as pioneers claiming names today could be also seen as retrogressive stubbornness tomorrow and lose its marketing value.

I've tried to explain it in my comment above. Yes, the rate of account compromises is a metric we can define. But attestation doesn't directly or invariably improve this metric. It may do so in some specific scenarios, but it&#x

You’re falling for the exact “better security” fallacy I was trying to warn about. Security is not a rating, “better security/guarantee” is not a really meaningful phrase on its own, even though it’s very tempting to take mental shortc

At the very least the spec should be painstakingly insistent on not requiring attestation unless implementors have really thought and understood the reasons why they need the security properties provided by attestation in their particular u

That's fair, but if there's enough of supply and demand for this to get traction (and online shopping is bug, and autonomous agents are sort of trending), this conflict of interest paired with a no-compromise "we don't o

Well, they all seem to have issues with multi-line selection, as those get all messed up with decorations, panes and whatever noise is there. To best of my awareness, the best a TUI can do is to implement its own selection (so, alt-screen,
