Re:What If Video Games Came on VHS? One Modder Is Finding Out on Tuesday October 20, 2026 @10:25AM (#50166937)
Wow had a similar experience but with the Rap Rat VHS game. Watch if you want to have nightmares: https://youtu.be/lkSx9Sd83PI?t=334
Server side though?
That is great! Just no fast inference like cerebras or groq support it
Is there anything better for speech to text model?

Non-schizophrenic people have been responsible for more killings than schizophrenic people. Please be respectful and avoid stigmatising.

How do you manage the bus factor? You die tomorrow and what happens to management of the domain and therefore access to their emails?

You can look through my history how many times I’ve brought this up to people and they just don’t seem to care. A defence is that they’ll buy the domain for a century and not care once they’re dead which is fair but the situation in this article is a valid one. I will always stick with Big Email for accounts.
Hey Yuri, slight tangent but how did you get to be an investor on those private companies as per your LinkedIn?

Please read TFA

> for most web apps, you’re much better off with good old DOM elements. Take the humble <input type="text"> element, for example. With it, you get crispy rendering at any resolution, support for tab, focus, selection, mouse interactions and arrow key navigation, internationalization for right-to-left text and Asian compound characters, accessibility for screen readers…

Typing in “line messenger” on Google reveals it’s a Japanese messaging app.

They update the docs every year. The videos are for people who want a demonstration instead of reading docs and trying things manually to see the result.

Re:Apple's hostile App Store rating system on Thursday July 30, 2026 @12:18AM (#49106081)
Because the native request prompt contains a very short string. You may use a permission for a number of things and need more description length to explain it. See the Apple HIG for an example:

Re:Apple's hostile App Store rating system on Wednesday July 29, 2026 @03:54PM (#49102198)
Apps informing the user they are doing to ask for permission is not a dark pattern. It’s used to give user more context. Maybe you’ve seen it done poorly but when done correctly it’s good.
Yep, a very subsidised chef
That would make a good butter chicken
Posts like these now feel the equivalent of “I didn’t want to order Indian takeaway so I hired a chef to make me butter chicken”
That’s valid, I remain hoping :’>
That’s fair, I think it’s possible to be both grateful for the existence of capitalism funding research into those companies and disgust over how much money they make.
You raise a possible outcome and I’m going to raise another in that AI allows us to come up with the technology to improve/reverse the impact to the planet.
It was more of an expression to say that AI will improve health outcomes due to its ability to increase the speed at which research is done.

Please be more respectful in your responses.

In the meantime here are some quotes from some folks in the AI space you’ve probably heard of.

1. “We find no systematic increase in unemployment for highly exposed workers since late 2022,” the report stated. Deployment of the technology “remains a fraction of what’s feasible”

2. “I don’t think we’re going to have the kind of jobs apocalypse that some of the companies in our space advocate or talk about,”

Why would no one else earn anything?
Will you still hate AI when it discovers the cure for your cancer?
