yeah this really confused me... at first I was like... oh boy yet another "agentic ai saas" but then looking closer I realized this is like hosted temporal alternative which made me a lot more curious.

This is a cool hobby project, but why is this notable? Why a FastCompany article? I'm trying to figure out anything that sets this apart from thousands of other little hobby search projects. I understand companies like Perplexity or Br

Hmm my huge concern was that if the settlement were to get approved, it would set a legal precedent for other "settlement approvals" like this one, setting back AI research in the US, paving way for China to win the race.

I make the software. I use free software and I contribute to free software. I wish all the software were free from all sorts of restrictions.

Good. Approving this would have set a concerning precedent. Edit: My stance on information freedom and copyright hasn't changed since Aaron Swartz's death in 2013. Intellectual property laws, patents, copyright, and similar protec

Current explosion in AI in general is "good". We tend to over-criticize and nit-pick it as what I believe is a natural response that comes from a "communal subconsciousness" -- even if us as individuals won't admit

Was this related to the CBTC rollout by any chance? EDIT: It was not.

There are 2 "best" TTS models out right now: HiggsAudio and VibeVoice. I found that Higgs is both faster and much higher fidelity than Vibe. Can't speak to expressiveness, but don't sleep on it.

Introducing intermediate variables is what I call "indirection". You're adding another step to someone reading the code. Let's take a recipe: Ingredients: large bowl 2 eggs 200 grams sugar 500 grams flou

I really like that this leans on computing probabilities instead of forcing everything into closed-form math or classical probability exercises. I’ve always found it way more intuitive to simulate, sample, and work directly with distributio

This reminds me of a time when 'API' has become a hot term. Every company would ship an API. I think Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Reddit, and I think even Google at some point had nice public APIs. This was the era of RSS and sem

I have a modest front and back yard in the "hot" part of the Bay Area. Summer months I'm pouring 5000 gallons a week to keep it moderately brown. It's insane.

But it is the law's fault. Instead of working with some body like IETF and browser contributors to come up with a standard, they just butchered the verbiage and expected the website admins to comply in the most unergonomic fashion imag

This is cool but was hard to read because I think it lacks some context... so "one of my friends" made a site where anyone could toggle a checkbox on a large canvas of checkboxes? And you (author?) set up a script to automatically
