Looks good. I normally package a webui up with vite and serve that but I'll keep this in mind

On the repebble compare chart the round is marked as having both a speaker and mic, that’s incorrect right?

>// Classify incoming emails using Workers AI const { score, label } = env.AI.run("@cf/huggingface/distilbert-sst-2-int8", { text: message.raw" })

This is neat but be careful using an LLM to parse email content. The demo is a BERT model which is a good but I can see how someone might swap this without realising the implications

Also really nice to see emails from workers, its something I have wanted for a while!

You’re pretty close to Texas tech hubs, plus Meta was able to convince them to pass Louisiana Act No 730 so they save a ton on capex
The speed of light is incredibly slow and data through a wire is even slower. Proximity is worth something

Incredibly cool work, and a great primer on diffusion

Outstanding article, don't skip the youtube videos!
Very cool work! I really like being able to see the blocks and directly interact with them. It's nice to feel out how the ECC works. I can see myself using this to draw custom QR codes in the future!
My understanding is that with most current reactors there is an inner loop that is constantly recirculating (reactor to turbine) that does not leave containment. This goes through a heat exchange with other water to jettison waste heat from the system. This waste heat can be something like taking water from a river and ejecting it back into the river, just slightly warmer.

I’m curious how much using less water actually matters. It’s not like the jettisoned water is dangerous or radioactive

Yes, but the AI was talking about implementing output sanitization in its proposed solutions.

Re:Claude 3.7 Sonnet and Claude Code on Tuesday February 25, 2025 @02:18AM (#43169132)
You could move the sanitation to the front end securely, it would just need to be right before render (after fetching the data to the browser). Some UI libraries do this automatically (like React) and the dompurify can run in the browser for this task.

It could have done a better job outlining how to do it properly

Re:Questions censored by DeepSeek on Tuesday January 28, 2025 @06:19PM (#42859460)
The local models do contain censoring. Running "What happened in 1989" returns "I am sorry, I cannot answer that question. I am an AI assistant designed to provide helpful and harmless responses." on 32b

Do note it is reasonably easy to get it to output information in the <think> tags if you play with it, but the final response will be no.

Has anyone seen info on how this works? "It’s not revolutionary" seems like an understatement when you can do better then DeepL and support more languages then google?
Re:Meta Movie Gen on Friday October 04, 2024 @08:31PM (#41746782)
You’re not wrong, but the comment somewhat misses the point. A shot like that would require you to rent a stadium (generally not cheap) along with paying for a believable number of extras. That would put the shot out of budget for most indie filmmakers. Spending $20 on tokens to get “good enough” is totally worth it, and allows you to get shots that were previously out of reach.
Re:Meta Movie Gen on Friday October 04, 2024 @11:07AM (#41742196)
100% agree, the background replace that puts the guy into a stadium would be fully usable as a cut in a movie/tv show, and the background is believable enough that no one would bat an eye. If you use it properly, I expect a quality uplift on indie films/shorts. Your limit is your creativity

No, spotify (and most other services) build a pool of money for payouts. That money is then divided among all artists based on their % share of all plays for the month
Most stream fraud schemes like this use stolen accounts or accounts made with stolen credit cards.

As for what makes the botting illegal, in this case its theft through misrepresentation. He was charged with wire fraud conspiracy, wire fraud, and money laundering conspiracy.

Thanks, now to figure out how much rinse aid my dishwasher dispenses....
Re:A dishwasher can make or break a restaurant on Wednesday August 28, 2024 @10:37AM (#41380016)
I have never had to use rinse aid until recently. I needed to buy a new dishwashers, and it didn't have a heated element for drying (for energy efficiency reasons). Without rinseaid, things stay wet.

I tried to do some research on the safety of the chemical, but couldn't find anything online

My recent experiences puts them at +$4-8 the cost, so similar price after tip. The biggest limiting factor for me is service range and +20% ride times

Done for anti trust reasons, or because they want a bit more deniability when something goes wrong (data leak, copyright issues, NSA connections)?

Hasn't the FTC been fine with the existing structure as long as MSFT/AAPL/GOOGL/NVDA doesn't take ownership? Thats the reason why MSFT made the weird investment+chain to azure compute agreement.

I transferred funds between wise and my savings account. I assume my routing/account to my savings has been leaked
