This is what I don't get with a lot of the AI based saas projects - what is your value add? If you can build it with AI then (in theory) your customer can also build it with ai, so why do they need you? In the SaaS world you don't

As a largely solo dev I found I can't estimate well unless it's a common task, and it's easy to find tasks grow exponentially if it touches too many layers. Asking "how long do you want me to spend on this?" got bet

Less effectively too (depending how you travel). Most hotel rooms I'm there for a couple of days min, most normally a vacation week. I settle in, move the chair somewhere sensible, unpack clothes and charge, set up for the short term.

It doesn't seem that confusing. The blog post says that they "proactively communicated with all impacted customers" not that they've only emailed impacted customers. Recieving an email doesn't imply you were affecte

hacker news, Reddit and similar have always been about following subjects or topics you like, getting the latest discussion in a field of your interest. twitter was all about following people not topics, so you'd get a wider range of t

Honestly it kinda is. Ai bots scrape everything now, social media means you can go viral suddenly, or you make a post that angers someone and they launch an attack just because. I default to cloudflare, because like an umbrella I might just

Not how the terms slavery and taxation are usually defined no. If you choose to reduce them to such a level you ignore all their differences and focus on some carefully termed similarities you could make the case they're the same for t

In what way? Companies drop/move on from small customers all the time as positions and analysis changes. $5 a month might make sense now, but with thin profits, a lower than predicted "upgrade rate" and maybe a higher than an

I assume his idea was that you have to come through the enter page so you read the disclaimer. I don't think he really cares about design conventions or making it easy, it's a tiny outlet for him rather than a thing built for othe

My take is no one really cares about generating SVG, but it's a structured "code" format with very direct visual results. I can't look at 3 piles of code and instantly tell which is best (assuming minimum competence) , b

Difference between concept and implementation I'd assume. Floor material would have to be cheap and/or very durable to be practical in the real world, and installation, replacement/upgrades would cost a lot in time, labour an

I'm probably not typical, but I have 6 chargers around that would charge that already. Some smaller, some with travel adapters for EU/US/UK usage. Most with multiple slots so you can do a laptop and phone at least. And while

This is kinda cool, but it's similar in function to the canon connect app which feels a little superfluous. Maybe it connects better - I have a 70d and the connection process is annoying. Iirc it's WiFi direct but you have to conn

I exclude node_modules and other dependency folders from backups, but projects are pretty much a key thing I want. I might have online repos, but there's usually local branches I want backed up automatically.

I bought a Dreo fan early spring, anticipating a hot summer, and it's brilliant. Doesn't pureify the air like this Dyson, but it's a big corner tower unit, has 9 speeds that go from old ladies dying breath to weather-warning-

I think a lot of this depends on if you read the article as the scream cipher being specifically the exact listed substitutions or just any substitution with forms of As. Also depends on how you define encoding, cipher and the overlaps betw

Rot 13 is a cipher. It's a substitution cipher, and more specifically a shift cypher or Caesar cipher. It's not a secure cipher but it is one. Base64 is an encoding. It's an algorithm, no attempt at secrecy, thus not a cipher

Safe links also likes to visit sites to check what the link is, so way too many sites will not let you reset your password because you've already used the link now. Not sure if that's really a safe links problem, but it's sup

I used to find it weird how many people would make an excel formula on data they couldn't intuitively check. Like even basic level 'what percentage increase is a8 from a7' - they enter a formula then don't know if it&#x2

Anyone is a literal stretch, but "almost anyone" seems pretty true. How many people do you think follow your very security minded, but quite long-winded practice? 1 in 1000?, 1 in 10,000? 1 in 100,000? Less? I think the vast vast

The PDF report covers the difference between print and screen reading around page 27, I think their daily reading must be content available in print and screen but it is not clearly defined. That section does show that 2/3rds of screen

No one knows, but it's a reasonable assumption surely. If you're theorising a AGI, that has recursive self improvement, exponential improvements seem almost unavoidable. AGI improves understanding of electronics, physics etc, that

I have the same doubts, it's like the old rule of reading a newspaper story. When it's outside your area of expertise you think they're a genius. When it's something you know a lot about you think it's an idiot. But
