Needs a "(2012)" in the title. I remember liking this a lot when the design was first released, especially with the chaos of what would become known as the "Frutiger Aero" aesthetic period. It demonstrated just how fragm

I've used Google's Cloud Vision API to detect explicit content, and found it quite effective at flagging all kinds of risky stuff. (And a unique challenge for testers on how to exactly to safely test for such content.)

I believe the pricing changes remain in effect even if you disable the Gemini features in your Workspace admin, as they are now bundled and not a separate add-on: https://support.google.com/a/answer/15400543

I actually think that they do — tourists to the US have free speech protections. There are many foreign-owned press outlets operating in the US (Forbes, Al Jazeera, RT, CGTN etc.) that are also protected by the first amendment.

Not suprising to see the common interpretation of wokeness being "performative" and "unfair" instead of, people en masse, demanding equal treatment, equal rights, and safety, against individuals and organisations with am

I guess @scope > :scope would help you know what the CSS is doing even if you don't know where the CSS is being inserted... but I can't imagine that being a problem in practice.

That's interesting to know... and quite a trap. Interesting to watch and see how they scale this across communities.

Out of curiosity, how does weirdgloop pay for wiki hosting? The amount of traffic certainly wouldn't be low... what is stopping them from having to abandon these wikis in the future due to cost pressure?

Coming at this from a professional services angle — Client interest in NFTs/Blockchain/Metaverse is entirely dead. But AI is still top of the list for most organisations, even if there are some real issues with the current economi

levels.fyi contains salary information for comparison. Take a Google L4 - $280K US, $190K UK, $160K DE. But when you include the regulatory protections and benefits, the differences in living standards, etc. the US salary is probably still

It helped me to recognise that every corporation is a dysfunctional chaotic mess in its own way and held together by hope, process, and power. And that through convergence, the chaos occasionally materialises as something of value. If the c

I disagree — Cancer is something happens to you. Being socially inept is, barring medical conductions which complicate social interaction, entirely something within your control. "Chronic social cancer" does not exist. This kind o

I really wish editorial-style reporting would stop doing this particular style of article. It's very hard to browse and and jump between visual landmarks, whilst the dynatism offers very little for making the subject-matter more compel

I guess they're applying the same test you would expect with libel; would the layman expect the speech to be truth or intentionally misrepresentative — i.e. would the image be construed as real. Otherwise, parody and criticism using AI

I'd love to read the full text of the judgement, as the news articles and press releases are vague as to how the ruling was reached. My assumption is that the issue was not about automation/scraping, but rather, the way in which b

For the applications I see clients wanting to buy, no. Both the maturity and cost-saving potential of GenAI are greatly over-hyped. From a non-tech business perspective, I expect the interest in GenAI to decline by years end. It's just

I visited Hong Kong recently, fourth time, and met a sommelier who moved over prior to the protests. He lamented that in the last few years, following the reduction of the Covid restrictions, many young Hong Kong citizens left. Taking advan
