Oh my god. Just press for laws to be adjusted so we can have longer trucks already. It’s way more efficient, especially than using two trucks when one truck would do the job. You’ve got all this technology adding point of failures and addit

Advanced facial recognition for one. College students recently did an experiment where they could scan a face and find a lot of publicly available information about people. Imagine the stores of data the gov has they don’t talk about. This

Going through this now in my job. This was a great reminder that I’m not alone in all of this. It’s funny how easy it can be to feel like I’m the only one that’s struggling. And it’s true about the “fuck yous”. It instantly reminded me of a

They clearly stated that this is not the intention. The closest thing to this would be translation help. But even then they’ll undoubtedly include a notice like “this has been translated with the help of AI.” Along with a prompt to encourag

This actually helps explain some behaviors I’ve encountered. It was never a serious issue, since the answer is to use a full path. But is slightly annoying none the less. Understanding helps a lot.

Perhaps locally running ai can help us filter this. Or rather, a locally tuned algorithm.

I got distracted reading the article by the white background that has slight translucence to it. I thought my phone was having backlighting issues as it scrolled the tile background behind the text and white background just subtly enough to

But nothing stops companies from doing this today, without forcing everyone to make the change also. You can refresh your cert every single day. the cert that gives me https on my home routers web interface doesn’t need that level of scruti

I’d imagine it wouldn’t be hard to have a kind of hybrid method. The developer comments the code for a reason, and ai can expound on that comment if necessary.

If less than 0.5% of users upload over 100hrs, then either this is an extreme penny pinching move, or some few in that 0.5% upload a massive overage of content.

What I don’t get is why there isn’t a bigger push to innovate handheld devices for such use. My iPhone is a full computer in my pocket, but the OS heavily limits how versatile it could be. I could walk into work, plug in usb-c to a dock, a

I don’t want a phone number anymore. There’s no real reason for anyone to call a number that ties directly to me. If it’s friends or family they should have a way to reach me. Companies getting away from phone verification is a much needed

Interesting to note, devices that measure time without an onboard Real-Time Clock use the stability and frequency of power to keep time accurate. Devices that don’t have a RTC, or the ability to sync with NTP / atomic clock frequencies

This sounds like a benefit in some ways, but also introducing a lot more compute per request than if things are well defined. I suppose the trade offs may depend on each use case, using ai to handle these entirely, or only intervening if an

The pdf is 23 pages long in dual column format… I used OpenAI to summarize it for me, which equally felt as helpfully detailed as it did hypocritical. But the ending summary gave me a paragraph of generated words to think about: “This study

I met the founder of a company who claimed they at one point owned every 3 letter .com domain they could get their hands on. Claims they had around 5000 of them (17576 total), and about a 100 2 letter domains. They had trouble figuring out

And openAI has the former NSA chief on the board. Which government has the motivation to utilize your data against you specifically? Perhaps the one of the country you reside? Who knows.

I’d argue that desktop native is also the most likely to introduce system breaking bugs, viruses, and malware. A web app is much safer from these types of issues. The result is people can use more efficient terminals to do most of what they
