Yes, the "USB-C port at the bottom ---->" and huge QR code really got me going. I have to hope that's all on a sticker that's meant to be torn off after you take it out of the package.

Our Cloudflare CSR is laughably slow at responding to things. Once it took 3-4 months and I was wondering if he still worked there.

Android 15 has a "Private Space" feature that can be somewhat hidden and used to sandbox apps/data. It will prompt for a secondary unlock if you know where to look.

Welcome to the machine. What sort of jobs are you applying for? If you haven't worked in your field at all yet, keep your sights low and apply for entry level positions or internships. IME there can be a large gap between what formal e

Funnyish story: the other night I asked my Pixel 9 to generate an image via Gemini, then I asked it to make a change. It didn't consider the previous context, so I asked it "Are you capable of keeping context?" No matter how

DeepMind went from playing Pong to protein folding in a short number of years. There are much harder things for AI to do than playing video games. Also see: self driving cars.

Gemini Pro does this constantly. * It'll output a broken script * I tell it what's wrong and how to fix it * It tells me I'm absolutely right and that it will correct it * It outputs a script with the exact same brokenness

The best thing that JSON is good at is human readability. I would say human composibility as well, but YAML and others are better for that. As a machine data exchange and storage format, JSON is extremely inefficient.

Not everyone is immersed in pop culture, not everyone is a native English speaker, etc. It doesn't cost anything to be kind.

The lack of capitalization made it difficult for me to quickly read sentences. I had to be much more intentful when scanning the text.

Yes, and at this point Laravel has a healthy ecosystem built up around it. There's a large community, tons of plugins available, and professional support for it.

Apple is the king us using old kit and marketing it as innovative. On the flip side, 26 hours of video playback on battery is crazy long, and 60Hz is a big contributor to that.

It's great that Paperwhite have caught up to Kobo in this manner. Back when I was evaluating replacing my (lost) Kindle I believe it was only an option on the top tier ($300+) Kindle.

I moved from Kindle to Kobo for the sole reason that the backlight had tunable color temperature. I've ended up liking it for lot of reasons, including how open they are.

I was considering my cell phone and hotspot experiences (not 5G fixed wireless.) I suppose that has some amount of prioritization happening in order to provide a "stable" experience. My experiences with LTE/5G/5GUW have

Interesting project, but I can't say I've ever wondered whether or not it's time to touch my Yubikey. Authenticating with a token is a very intentful process.

Same thing with Captchas. If I'm placing a food order or something and I'm presented with a Captcha 9 times out of 10 I just say "screw it."

I'm not OP, but my brain also quickly noped out of reading that page. I can appreciate the care that went into the formatting of commands and links, but it's a bit much to parse all at once. I think monospaced/preformatted te
