Re:Nobody pays for FOSS, we can force them to on Sunday September 20, 2026 @10:41PM (#49782462)
This immediately falls apart when you realise that the registry is also a company that doesn't pay for FOSS and does not have the competitive incentives to ever do so.

I read "hallucinations" as "generates novel output with no grounding/source". i.e. "it just made something completely up".

I believe their "accuracy" metric (sonnet 5 level) is where "right/wrong" is measured.

Eh, it's not a seller's market anymore.

Haha I read the headline as "confidently submits", thought it was a dig at OpenAI's CFO.
Some might, in fact, call it the Didgeridon't

Bunny is more like Cloudflare. Database is just 1 part of their offering. They're doing full service edge compute, storage and CDN.

Baader-meinhof phenomenon
Either their CISO was shut out of the decision making, the SLT decided it was a risk worth taking, or their CISO was absolutely asleep at the wheel.
The main judgement here seems to be: not everyone was there to get a refund, therefore, just entering the store is not an opt-in consent to biometric scans.

As a counter-example: Australian clubbing venues use facial recognition and id verification to identify banned individuals and detect fake documentation. This is required on condition of entry (therefore, opt-in), and this information is shared across all partner venues.

Additional, Australia has a Target that isn't at all related to Target US.

Which also now owned by the same owners of Kmart (Coles Group, now owned by Wesfarmers).

And both Kmart and Target Australia operations have merged (though still operating 2 separate brands)

Re:GPT-5 for Developers on Thursday August 07, 2025 @08:42PM (#44832144)
It's not a hard logic path to follow - If AI becomes a digital necessity for modern society to function, Microsoft's relevance shrinks while OpenAI's relevance grows.

Once OpenAI breaks out of the "App" space and into the "OS" and "Device" space, Microsoft may get absorbed into the ouroboros.

OpenAI's dependence on Microsoft currently is purely financial (investment) and contractual (exclusivity, azure hosting).

Is this like saying a gym runs at 40%+ margin because 80% of users don't really use it heavily or forget they even had a subscription? Would be interested to see the breakdown of that number.

The studio being firebombed probably does not factor much into it. Kyoani and Kadokawa have beef, but Kadokawa can easily contract it to another studio to do. They just don't want to because of 1.

Also don't forget to watch Disappearance after the 2 seasons.

No it's not. 4 of 10 volumes.

The IP is likely doa anyway as it's on indefinite hiatus

In his defense, he was shooting a star trail. @10s per exposure, 6 per minute, becomes 360 per hour.

I believe 30s might be more appropriate for star trails which makes satellite trails oh so much more obvious. But that means a 2-3 hour session of 2 exposures per minute.

I also used to take hundreds of photos in meteor season - and having to diff between meteors and satellites was quite time consuming.

This could change in the future with the Mercury diffusion LLM... definitely keen to try if it can simply output results quickly.
