Something tells me it's just bird genes trying to fly from high. Swimming is a different type of traversal so might even kind of work as a reward mechanic

He's spoken about this in length. When it actually happened it did feel like a bit out of nowhere though, but makes sense in the engineering mindset to get it out of the way clear before fanning out to other areas, regardless of the ha

It's certainly less weird in official contexts now though. The brand was OK but not really "scalable" without sounding like something right off Idiocracy in some contexts.

No, more like something new on X breaks every year. The site is simple enough that that the engineering is mostly focused on optimizations and there's little more I or any other active user would even expect from the platform, outside

Well that title didn't take long to go entirely invalid as this isn't a thing anymore. Reasonable to doubt if this ever was thing as this seemed to only exist on iOS and due to the direction this went it didn't really do anyt

I've used irfanview for more than 15 years now. Mostly for looking at pictures. It's plenty fast. Doesn't work super well with multimonitor and should just ignore non-image files though imho

Why give anyone any permission you can deny? Why build wind turbines that "ruin the view" either? That kind of extreme NIMBY attitude would have us living in caves if it wasn't for the other side. The worst of it is that it j

Seems a bit like kind of privacy theater worrying about these kind of things. A town close to me has a sign that shows the number of people that have gone past on the sidewalk. Possibly counts stuff by a magnet/weight sensor or such in

I love this. It's so immensely simple. Truly human technology. We need to burn all computers and limit technology to this level.

aand the sites borked. Going to check this later. Have heard good things and really like using C# anywhere possible. C++, python etc have so massive compromises for just enjoyable development and good results.

The diffing of the real-world cartridge was the most interesting part. Requires a goofy amount of unnecessary knowledge to just jump in to reversing that and figuring out what its meaning is lol

"Palo Alto Networks" is something that shows up clearer than anything else in my lighttpd logs, as they include the "we're palo alto networks doing research, contact us here(email) for us not to scan" in http reques

Nice. Instant download. EDIT: the flash is a bit extreme on dark mode, and hides the text. Would be good to make this just a light alpha overlay which fades the same way, or / and ability to just turn the flash off

WFH is a benefit when you and your boss don't care about the company and are just on the mindset of doing the minimum hours to get your salary, and your boss is just trying to cover his own ass. And would prefer to just get the money f

Saying RTO picks the fruits of the trees and leaves the husks is true only in the way that it keeps the best workers which can create more fruit, and those "fruit" that fall off weren't going to be around long in any case. Th

This stands out like a sore thumb for anyone even taking a glance at the graphs. Who there thought this was a good idea? Now I think the Supers are just going to be 10% faster while drawing 30% more power or something else hacky and despera

This seems to be somehow broken for me. It auto-skips everything in about one second. If there's some point about a time limit being required it should be 5 seconds at the very minimum.

This is the actual truth. What it sucks for is for citing the data, but GPT-4 doesn't do that to start with unless it's directly from a web result and not the weights.

I'd be interested in seeing how this would have gone with a switch statement instead.

This is a piece of trolling parodying that old video about the electric company big-wig defending his right to profits right?

The positive part of this is that at least in some degree this will lead to more people going off-grid and the companies losing customers, a win both for general survivability and the need to legitimize unreliable centralized poo you have d

I guess there is a distinction but considering how people usually talk, the thing said registers the same, especially as the guy did wrote in the form that he was "biding his time" expecting Twitter to actually die and for everyth

Yes. Continuously bringing up a few random exceptions like the ElonJet case, while ignoring the massive shift Twitter went thru to go from one of the most censorious common western internet places. That is the problem how 100% of negative r

Lol what. I have a bot that processes ~50 videos a day, burning in translated whisper-generated subtitles. It also translates images using Tesseract, then overlaying texts in-place. I once thought of exporting frames as images to maybe do t

I really recommend just logging in once, the unregistered UX is crappy intentionally. You're the first one to bring up First Amendment. We are not talking about it. Note that "Freedom of Speech" and "First amendment&quot
