Pretty much all tv / steaming remotes don’t have keyboards though?
pretty weird that the whole article is about how the guy doesn't like the robot, but as someone who has no skin in the game or previous knowledge about industrial robots, it looks pretty much exactly how I would expect it to look, and all the tradeoffs make total sense. Why would I want a robot that can jump around if it's just moving heavy boxes around in a warehouse all day? and why is he so sad to have biult something useful? Maybe fund the research arm to make the high speed, agile robots from the actual workhorse robots that get s*t done?
Zed Shaw isn’t especially known for even-keeled rhetoric. He got famous from “rails is a ghetto”.
Doom isn’t 3d, it’s raycasted 2.5d. It’s a completely separate type of rendering that has nothing in common with real 3d.
How would any DNS service proxy wildcards? Is that something that’s actually supported as part of DNS? What actually gets resolved in that case? I’ve always had to register every domain/subdomain that should get proxied.
I also had a 6TB red that failed. It was SMR. The other 6TB reds I had were and are still fine, but they weren’t SMR. I didn’t even know what SMR was but that drive had awful performance til the day it died
Why is that? Humans are considered AGI and we make godawful software 90% of the time.
PS5 emulation has gone from barely working to running Dark Souls at 10+ FPS with virtually no graphical glitches… in 6 weeks. If you’re not familiar with normal emulator development time, this is… quite extraordinary. There have been insane progress on decompilations and many other things in the emulator space.
Everyone’s trying to figure out how to convert this speed to product features at scale, but enterprises are like container ships. Lots of might but slow to turn. The littler companies can actually take advantage of this and produce higher quality products at much faster speed. I think you’re expecting too much in the short term and too little in the long term. AI-native companies are gonna eat everyone’s lunch, once they figure out how to actually do it reliably.
If you don’t have style rules baked into the PR process, you should. Tabs vs. spaces is a team decision and needs to be matched by everyone to reduce code churn. It’s correct to reject a PR if it violates the team style guide (although it should be automated and have tooling locally to enforce it as well.)
this difference engine model has a lot of obvious flaws - the gears do not mesh with each other, the teeth directly overlap. the notches that are supposed to articulate to ratchet aren't actually engaging the teeth on the ratchet. the ratcheting mechanisms on the right are straight up just hovering in the air and are not attached to anything.
that's probably what people are talking about when they say it can't do CAD?
How do you actually do that? Is it all running locally? Cloud agents? Would love to hear about this. I see these deep agent loops mostly just burning tokens, but when I guide the AI I get very good results, so I’m not sure where the disconnect lies.
We definitely need more spyware from Google in our smart TVs, can’t wait!
I would love to use Voz and Ear, but I’d need a version that is competitive with other audio transcription LLMs for platform availability - meaning macOS, Windows and Linux, and supporting GPUs if available.
I love the idea! OKF 0.2 solves for the problem of the AIs generating massive amounts of documentation (far more than humans ever created) and giving it equal-weight over what a human actually approved and committed to. I've been using it to attribute my decisions with specific directions on how to ensure that it takes strong direction from my explicit decisions and clarifies implicit / AI-driven decisioning.
Adding on progressive disclosure to this is brilliant, and I love the idea of a fast, in-memory, single-binary tool. This is a great way to approach the solution to this problem.
One thing I will say though - I would never be able to use this in my enterprise. It would just be too much of an uphill battle to purchase something that is so niche in utility - this tool is not a ton different than just having the md files locally and having it use ripgrep to search over them, and telling CLAUDE to write the OKF files as well as an index when it makes changes, is it? is the index generated dynamically / is anything about the progressive disclosure different than just having the agent manage it while it documents?
If you're going for smaller teams that can buy tools without a ton of approval / procedural overhead, I think that might have some success. another possible solution would be to make the cross-repo search something that you can handle with OSS but you have to self-host, and then pay for support. if you got enough usage and penetration within an enterprise from the teams just using OSS and self-hosting, they might consider buying support after-the-fact.
Running an iOS app on Android is still gonna look like an iOS app. This seems worse than Flutter (reimplement the whole UI) or React Native (abstract on top of native UI.) If we’re ok picking a non-native UI why not just build a Cordova app?
Why don’t you have your actions run on pr or push instead of on commit? Why would you even want that? I’ve never seen actions set up that way. If I push a branch with 100 commits then it’ll only run CI once. It’ll show the rest of the commits in the UI, sure, but that doesn’t mean that it’s the same performance impact. It could very well be 1 db transaction with multiple rows written instead of 100. I think you’re reducing this problem too much without knowing their architecture.
I wonder if this will result in discovery of edge cases in the logic that could be exploited to get higher scores (glitches/bugs and such!)
Jarred is the Bun creator who just got acquihired and converted Bun to Rust. Pretty sure his job now is to burn tokens to make news headlines. Like a developer advocate for LLM usage in general.
Well your comment adds no value and is just offensive. Why don’t you argue a counterpoint?
What have they iOSed about macOS? The latest versions haven’t lost any features as far as I’m aware. But Windows lost the ability to even pin the task bar to the side of the window in Windows 11… and the ability to stop auto updates.
If anything, iOS is getting more Mac-like, especially the iPad version. It has multi windowing and a window manager now.
I’ve got a 32 gig m1 MacBook Pro. how would I go about trying Gemma like you mentioned? Would it run at an acceptable speed, and what could I do? Coding?
It seems like this person is incredibly intelligent and resourceful. Why not just design a new PCB for this instead of modding one? Surely the component cost of 2 connectors and a little PCB could still be in the < $20 range and actually output good quality analog signals? $20 is the same as $3 if you’re also buying CRTs just to play Switch games. This is such a hobby level activity I’m sure people would love a kit + a guidebook, could even provide a 3d printed case.
Why is the EV better? Because electricity transmission is more efficient than gas? What about the losses in the electricity transmission and the batteries and the conversion to motive force in the motor? Is it way less than that 40%? And wouldn’t there be more than 0% losses because refinery -> power plant shipping?
I’m pro EV by the way, I just want to understand your point better. Being able to go all the way to transportation using clean energy is an obvious benefit of EVs. The “dirty electricity” angle is less obvious to me.
blur hash is an algorithm for a low res representation of an image for placeholder purposes, it's pretty nice.

The US has no social safety net. Healthcare comes from your employer. Everything is centered around having a job. Opinions on AI diverge significantly and someone’s response to this question would be pivotal to me in a hiring role. The market is not great for job seekers. The hiring manager can wait for someone who aligns with their company’s perspective on this.
Yes, if you get a Toyota and maintain it, it would be expected to make it past 200k miles. They are by far the most reliable cars. Timing belt failures are only catastrophic for interference engines, and most cars use timing chains now, which have a much lower failure rate.
Not in the same request. I often want to turn off 2 lights and the other on, I have to build scenes to do this
Got anything from your orchestrator you could share that’s usable by others? Sounds like how I’d like to work but is difficult to get going from scratch
Traffic is usually caused by adding inefficiencies across a system with little slack - someone brakes too hard or too early, and if all the cars are stacked up, that one brake event can ripple through hundreds of following cars, getting worse and worse because each person brakes more. Self driving cars can perfectly sync up and move like a train. Theoretically there could be no traffic on highways if all cars are self-driving. Rarely is a highway so full that there couldn’t be more cars (eg. The entrance ramps are backed up) which implies the issues are related to the driving flow and not the capacity of the street itself.
Does that mean you could compile a wasm program to go, then run it with wazero? How many levels deep can it go?? Might be a fun blog topic :)
