It's very Hackernews to throw LLMs in there, but I agree. LLMs don't have experience though. They have training data, and a probabilistic output. Designing things have two goals: - Make old things seem new - Make new things seem o

There's a tunnel in my town where my Tesla hard breaks 3 separate places if I'm on cruise control / auto pilot. If this legislation will force this to happen even outside of auto pilot it will be "great" for sure...

For a less scientific approach LAxemann has some interesting videos as well. He uses software synthesizers to create the sounds. His introductory video is quite interesting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afvKUTIL4D8 He ha

That would probably be point number 2 in your list. West coast and northern Norway eat a lot of fish/seafood. Also within the last 20 years sushi has gotten a lot more popular here, even around Oslo.

Nice for driving, but not for walking. Look how much pedestrian info is simply not rendered in my home area. Tons of stairs and walkways are not visible: https://zelonewolf.github.io/openstreetmap-americana/#map=16...

And then you have the look and "you can touch if you give away all rights for what you contribute". Contributor License Agreements where basically you contribute to a "GPL" project, but you sign away the rights to your c

Subscribed to Tidal for about a year until my patience ran out. It has to be one of the buggiest pieces of long living software ever. Pressing the next button would skip two songs ahead for playback and one song ahead UI wise, making the UI

Samsung phones come with a Samsung store in addition to Google Play for instance. All of Samsungs software go through their own store, and they also sell apps on it.

A big reason for alternative app stores is to allow apps that do not comply with app store rules though. Think emulators for instance. Or any other of the long list of arbitrary app store rules.

Another example: It used to be that telecom companies used to milk cross country calls and data within the EU. The competition to provide cheap calls between countries was basically not working. So EU made it a requirement that you should n

Apple's lawyers have been working hard to make it non-viable for third-party app stores while still complying with the law I guess. Sounds like this will be a no go in it's first incarnation and EU will have to come back with an e

I can't remember where I read it, but I believe one of the main reasons why Linq moved the FROM clause to the front was for better intellisense. If you start writing SELECT x in an IDE, there really is no way of providing intellisense

I would suggest that companies should stop machine translating any language that's actually present in the Accept-Language header. If my Accept-Language header is "no-nb, en-us, en-gb" it means that I have declared that I _kn

Honestly I do not think Apple does some special magic on Mac OS for Safari. I settled on Vivaldi (a chromium based browser with built-in ad blocking developed by former Opera devs). It gives battery life not much worse than Safari to be hon

I also feel weird about all the crypto stuff in Brave. I chose Vivaldi (also a Chromium based browser with built-in adblocker). It's developers include a lot of former Opera devs.

Using 2-3x as much battery as all other browsers on my Macbook is the dealbreaker for me.. I want to use the same browser on all systems when I move..

When the economy is crashing and more and more of society destabilizes, a huge amount of people will always look for politicians that will sell them "an easy way out". Being the politician that talks about inconvenient truths, the

I tried to switch to Firefox as my main browser, but sadly the blocker for me was the absolutely horrible battery life on my Macbook Pro M1. It's like it's continuously running a spinning loop or something. It reduced my battery l

Would you also claim your money back if Twitter closed down? If your logic became reality you could kiss goodbye to any third-party client for any type of network service. The Twitter clients are not at fault here. It's 100% on Twitter

I do agree that it's probably unnecessary here, but in many cases assigning to variables can be a good thing in the name of readability. You can give the variable a name, explaining it's purpose. If you directly return an expressi

I've seen multiple people claim they've been banned for simply disagreeing with him in replies. Of course it could just be people clout chasing. I haven't seen any clear evidence, but it wouldn't surprise me at all if it
