I sometimes use the VLC app. You can upload files via a little website it hosts on your local network. It's useful for watching videos from my Android phone that can't utilize Airplay. Can't say I've ever really needed more storage though
Used PS5 prices are spiking with the GTA6 coming out and the chip shortage. They are $550 for the base and $1400 for pro right now, so still nearly double the apple tv (but of course, you can play GTA6)
That scales to 1-2 ideas. It does not scale to "we want to run EVERY company with AI". They'd either need to scale out to every single sector at the same time, or they will lose their competitive advantage as the competition makes their own AI (it's not a secret how it works, at this point it's more about investment).
Selling AI to everyone does scale though!
AI is coming for the transactional work long before it will come for litigation. In 50 years, nobody is going to have a human write their will, for instance.
I don't understand the logic. AI vs Human development still have similar cost profiles. It costs $ per unit of thought (salary or tokens).
If React Native worked well for human programmers, wouldn't it be just as good for AI?
The perception is that the left is in favor of censoring slurs and hate symbols. As a reaction, Trump/MAGA has brought back the R-word for instance.
Saying the Left are "pro-censorship" is not factually incorrect but definitely has a different connotation.
Google's business model is providing you services that are excellent, while also providing advertisers access to your willing eyeballs when you use those services.
Yes, the advertising targeting is incredibly invasive, but let's not pretend they aren't providing world class Search, Email, Docs, Maps, Video (YT), etc in exchange.
Not who you asked, but I was going to say Actions or CI/CD from when I tried out Gitea a few years ago (back when running a Jenkins instance was more normal) but looks like Gitea supports that kind of workflow now:

The courts are 100% going to have to interpret what is "sufficient human control" at some point.
I've seen junior engineers be productive on their first day in the industry because of AI, so I don't think the article is the whole truth.
The example math is boundary-pushing and definitely not a solved problem. But most of us work on CRUD backends with a React frontend. Those are more or less solved problems that have well-documented solutions. For those kinds of tasks, LLMs just reward usage.
I can count on one hand the number of times in my career I've needed to solve a problem that's not described on Stack Overflow.
Is it? Turning a book into an AI model is lot more transformative than turning an AI Model into another AI Model.
Now I'm being super pedantic, but every town can't have the same "landmark" law. What makes a law a "landmark" is that other municipalities look to it for direction.
In a world where the California law exists, and the New York Times has been used as an example of the success of that law for years already, claiming some sort of moral victory with the "landmark" qualifier is objectively wrong.
Does any of this matter? No, but I like arguing about it.
The municipality is already qualifying the sentence! Instead of "NYC announces click-to-cancel law" they qualify it with "landmark".
I think it's silly for a municipality to lie (by omission?) in their own press announcements.
The term MMO is about the game/server architecture more than the size of the game. MMOs are online games with a single (or sharded) persistent gamestate. That's it.
Most shooters have rounds that restart, breaking the persistence quality of the game. Other games like Minecraft emphasize individual / private servers and break the "single gamestate" proposition. The "Massively" word refers to that
single gamestate that many users can interact with, not how many do actually play.
To me, The "play offline" option is more against the MMO definition than the actual number of players.
There's 1655 calories in a pound of uncooked rice, so with 330lbs you are sitting at ~1500 calories a day for a whole year.
You wouldn't starve to death, but you'd absolutely want to supplement (both for more calories and probably for vitamins). But also you'd be eating that rice every single day pretty much, how else are you getting through that much rice?
The layoffs being "due to AI" is usually about freeing up the budget to build a couple datacenters and buy GPUs. And they have to layoff 14% of their workforce because they are buying those GPUs at many times the normal price thanks to the zeitgeist.
They aren't saying that they don't know what to do with the AI productivity boost, but rather they think it worth taking a huge productivity hit right now so they can invest in the future. Whether their vision of the future is realistic...
I was thinking all it takes is an IMU to tell if the car is a rockin'
Not everyone will take a job that requires clearance because they are usually "defense" related.
Until nukes are going off, Pax Americana stands strong.
Thanks for clarifying. I was thinking of the CCPA which does have some revenue or user count minimums.
It's kinda wild that you don't need to be a professional engineer to store PII. The GDPR and other frameworks for PII usually do have a minimum size (in # of users) before they apply, which would help hobbyists. The same could apply for the licensure requirement.
But also maybe hobbyists don't have any business storing PII at scale just like they have no business building public bridges or commercial aircraft.
The cards _could_ be copyrightable, would probably be essentially a coin flip if you took it to court.
No individual card text (limited to just the mechanics) is copyrightable but the setlist of cards might be. It would come down to how much creativity went into curating the list of cards that is released. It gets especially murky because new cards are always being released and old cards are being retired, so they obviously put a lot of creative energy into that process. You'd have to avoid pre-made decks as well.
Unless you have funding from an eccentric MTG-loving billionaire, I see why you'd comply with the cease-and-desist.
Gemini works well enough in Search and in Meet. And it's baked into the products so it's dead simple to use.
I don't think Google is targeting developers with their AI, they are targeting their product's users.
Solar can always just go on the roof...
"Filter" is a Tik-tok / snapchat / instagram parlance for any kind of overlay / transformation. It's grown larger than just sepia filters and similar. All the ones that do facial tracking and overlay a mustache or w/e is funny in the moment are also referred to as filters.
See https://www.snapchat.com/lens
They are constantly evolving the menu and it's entirely data-driven, so yes? It's not down to the person level like tiktok but if they could, it would be.
I can get a cheeseburger delivered, or there's a dozen places within a 15 minute walk to get one. I can hardly leave the house without seeing an ad for one or some other fast food item on the side of a bus. I can't avoid being hungry, but I can leave my phone at home.
Sure it's a matter of degrees but I don't see a bright line between McDonald's and tiktok. Both want me hooked on their product. Both have harmful aspects. Both have customers they know are over-indulging. Why would only tiktok be liable for that?
