Strangely enough, Google wouldn't index my personal website when I was using webp. Everything in my Search Console showed up as "crawled but not indexed." I had multiple friends with SEO backgrounds check out my site, but everything looked configured correctly.
Switching all my images back to jpg solved it
Only something like 10-20% of games are winnable.

I also enjoy rectangle, but struggle to find a good Finder replacement. Any recommendations?

I don't purchase from costco.com regularly, but the selection is generally the same as in-store and a bit more. The shipping is free, but slower than Amazon and faster than a couple weeks.

I've done this before at work, and I feel true ownership of the output after this workflow. Moreso than when someone from a marketing team publishes a blog with the CEO's name as the author.

I just finished reading this book while taking a train for a weekend vacation. To your point, he mentions that if spending money doesn't make you happy, it's because you're spending it on the wrong things. You shouldn't spend money to get the respect of others, because it's fleeting, causes envy, and is the fast food of getting respect. You need to spend money in ways that give you new experiences until you discover what kind of spending DOES make you happy.

I got a shirt I liked from a conference, and I didn't know who made it. It was soft, fit comfortably... I took a picture of some random numbers on a tag and Gemini parsed out the numbers and found the manufacturer. Pretty neat

It smells like an architecture-related issue to me. They wanted to release the model asap, but they're still implementing the fine-grained controls to constrain the model to non-subscription users.
> The loudest reaction to Mythos Preview from other security leaders has been about speed - scan faster, patch faster, compress the response cycle. More than one team we have spoken with is now operating under a two-hour SLA from CVE release to patch in production [...] If regression testing takes a day, you cannot get to a two-hour SLA without skipping it, and the bugs you ship when you skip regression testing tend to be worse than the bugs you were trying to patch.
Over time, I wonder if these models will be able to generate more secure code by default by doing this kind of exploitability testing before ever merging their code.
I like simonw's take that open source should be more valuable [0]
>An interesting result of this is that open source libraries become more valuable, since the tokens spent securing them can be shared across all of their users. This directly counters the idea that the low cost of vibe-coding up a replacement for an open source library makes those open source projects less attractive.
I can understand why the reflexive move to fork the code and move it in-house, but how sustainable will that be when eng teams have MORE code to manage and mitigate vulnerabilities for?

You can borrow ebooks via Libby to your Kindle.
I taped an Airtag-equivalent to one of my bikes as well
