   Ugh. It looks like an early AI hallucination produced while trying to generate religious art in the style of the Iron Maiden's Dance of Death album cover (possibly the ugliest album cover ever).

   I don't know why web search is such a big deal. You can implement it with any LLM that offers an API and function calling.

   I'd risk to say it was compounding interest on tech debt, but it doesn't sound as sexy, does it?

   If you can't be bothered reading a book, or if you find it funny and want more, https://loudribs.com/product-category/postcard/ has a "Rubbish Seaside Postcard" series.

   You are right about the differences in the number of sensors, there may be more. I prefer to talk about photosites, because additional properties like photosite size or sensor photosite density help me make better decisions when I'm se

   A photosite is a set of four photosensitive electronic sensors that register levels of RGB components of light https://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials/camera-sensors.h... The camera sensor turns data captured by a

   RGB is the most common colour space, but yes, other colour spaces are available.

   A pixel is a sample or a collection of values of the Red, Green, and Blue components of light captured at a particular location in a typically rectangular area. Pixels have no physical dimensions. A camera sensor has no pixels, it has photo

    I think we killed the old web. We'll see new ways of communicating, publishing, and gathering over the internet. It's sad, but it's also exciting.

    Spain has a lot more winning beaches so it cancels out.

    I guess gyoza encapsulation would work with some "farsz" padding to make a gyoza-stuffed pierog pass visual inspection. (I'm using my local Wagamama's gyoza for reference, your gyoza sizes may vary).

    by surfingdino 2y ago

    I should've been more precise. I don't want pierogi with gyoza stuffing, I want pierogi stuffed with actual gyoza (with whatever you put in your gyoza).

    Would gyoza stuffed pierogi be good fusion food?

    I could use more guidance on migration for setups where development and testing is using Docker. I figured things out eventually. The issue here is lack of good tutorials that cover cases other than a happy path.

    So... I am switching a project from pip to uv. I am hoping for things to be "better", but so far it's been a bit of a familiar "why does it not work as described?" journey.

    I was jesting, but only so. I think we are going to see weird DNA experiments in the wild, because people will do it for shits and giggle (or social media engagement).

    Of course they capture the imagination... I mean... imagine wooly mammoths roaming the boulevards of Paris... or having wings and perching on top on the Eiffel Tower... sadly no cure for cancer in sight.

    I can see a number of forces at play: 1) Cost -- beancounters got involved 2) Who Do You Think You Are? -- someone at Microsoft had enough of OpenAI stealing the limelight 3) Tactical Withdrawal -- MSFT is preparing to demote/drop AI o

    It's interesting to see the rise of podcasters in recent years. What started as a rebellion against the "old media" has become the new media capable of influencing voters.

    I wasn't aware of CBOR as I have yet to come across a project that needed an alternative to MessagePack or even MassagePack (only considered using it once in the past). However, based on my experience on various projects, if you have t

    This is cool! Now I think I know where the designers of the RED cameras got their inspiration from.

    I am not saying it's a tariff, but it is an additional cost and not an insignificant one both in time and money.

    As a European myself, I wouldn't be too sanctimonious. The EU has a lot to fix internally.

    Expensive. Dealing with all EU tax authorities is expensive and that cost can be prohibitive for smaller businesses.

    VAT is a complex system that encourages fraud, which encourages expansion of tax collection and investigation forces. It is also treated differently from income tax. As any tax advisor in Europe will tell you, disparities in VAT reporting a
