The referenced Bloomberg source ( https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-02-11/apple-s-i... ) says this about the delayed effort: But it’s been a complex undertaking. The revamped Siri is built on an ent

Fox News first reported that the airborne object was intercepted after raising concerns of a potential drone operating near the southern border. Officials later concluded the object was not an unmanned aircraft but a party balloon, a U.S.

Good thing they allocated 10 days of airspace shutdown for taking out a single (edit: or a few) drone(s). I get the feeling this was a case of really wanting to test a new weapon combined with general organizational dysfunction for somethin

No, I was actually correct. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ximian Ximian, Inc. (previously called Helix Code and originally named International Gnome Support) was an American company that developed, sold and supported

Thanks for the fact check :). The Ximian thing I wrote from obviously faulty memory (I now wonder if it was influenced by early 2000s Miguel's bonobo obsession), the rest from various google searches. Should have gone deeper.

Back in like 1998 there was a group purchase for a Y2038 tshirt with some clever print on some hot email list I was on. I bought one. It obviously doesn't fit me any longer. It seemed so impossibly far away. Now it's 12 years.

Personal brand building? Wanting Vercel to stay out of politics? A vague attempt at diffusing the focus on Vercel pricing? Really hard to tell.

I noticed that just in the past two hours you have provided detailed skepticism/commentary in these topics: - Semaglutide - App addiction for kids - Fake news via tiktok I guess what I'm asking is: are you really going deep, or ju

Seems like a wonder drug to me. The benefits just keep piling up. Where I live (Sweden), there's a perhaps surprisingly large portion of overweight/obesese people, especially in the countryside. Semaglutide could really do wonders

If there's anything the EU is good at, it's inter-op in markets.

Let's be real: The difference this time is the open hostility from the US towards Europe. It's now been about a month since a White House deputy chief of staff for policy and homeland security advisor openly talked about/advo

Lots of skepticism on how Europe could possibly handle something like that on their own. NASDAQ (NYC) currently runs on software/systems built and maintained by Stockholm-based developers. NASDAQ merged with Swedish OMX in 2008, founde

This is also still small/unimportant enough not to be poisoned by their broken corporate culture.

Yes, but the lack of clear pricing probably makes people think it's more expensive than it actually is. (It did so to me.) There is nothing quantifiable here: https://claude.com/pricing Pro: "Everything in Free,

The current realistic lower bound for actual work is the $100/€90/month Claude Max ("5x") plan. It allows roughly enough usage for a typical working month (4.25 x 40-50h). "Single-threaded", interactive usage w

I wonder what would happen to that music style if you went 16-bit/44.1 kHz with the samples. Has something like this been tried? I assume the 'grunginess' is a big part of what makes it work, but I'm also curious.

The context of that quote is OpenAI as a whole.

by lysace 9mo ago
That is the big question. Got reliable data on that? (My gut feeling tells me Claude Code is currently underpriced with regards to inference costs. But that's just a gut feeling...)

Somehow it seems to have worked here. There's probably a bit more to the secret sauce.

The eradication program works by offering cash rewards for reporting cases in areas where the worm is present. Those reports are then investigated and followed to prevent transmission and identify the source. Clever. I wonder if the same

That's bullshit (IMO) and the post author (Phillip Torrone - I believe that's one of the owners of Adafruit) is obviously ignorant in this regard. That said, what he's actually talking about in the post makes a lot of sense.
