This is great! Even without the LLM agent, async communication is so nice for low cog distracting customer service calls and holds. Why can't everyone just have an async comm universal chat interface? I guess this bridges the gap where the tech is legacy and or there is human involved. Can't wait to try it out!

this is so obvious when you think about it. Historically sharing audio has been so incredibly difficult because of the DRM of music and its history of sharing since napster. video always gets the pass.

Exactly. The past 163 days have only been about hurting people and cutting things down. There's no hopeful or optimistic rhetoric. Its just hate after hate after hate and blame.
You cannot build a great country on this. But you most certainly can tear one down.
Re:The first big AI disaster is yet to happen
on Wednesday June 11, 2025 @07:03PM (#44252735)
the first 'ai disaster' will be a corp shirking responsibility by blaming their unchecked automatic bureaucratic processes on ai. Look no further at what HERTZ did sending out automated arrest warrants for erroneous causes, leading to dangerous confrontations with armed police. Luckily no one was killed, but innocent law abiding people were very traumatized.
This was without 'ai' but the blame was nearly close, "oops automated process did it!"
The 'artificial intelligence' has been here (starts with B). Kafka wrote about it comically.

Re:Abundance Starts with Mobility
on Wednesday May 14, 2025 @01:14PM (#43986943)
Do not act like cars are the only way for transport. Less cars means more modes of transport. More options means mobility. Cars and their parking and road infra exceed at providing ON DEMAND transportation. Beyond that their storage and use and prioritization makes other modes of transportation less able. - So its the other way around. Less cars, more mobility

Re:In S3 simplicity is table stakes

whoops. I was wrong! you can store base64 encoded metadata in the object then run a HEAD request to get it, but its limited to 2kb.
also, you ~can~ query the metadata, but its latency is more suited to batch processing and not lambdas
Re:In S3 simplicity is table stakes
on Friday March 14, 2025 @10:47AM (#43363129)
if only metadata could be queried without processing a csv output file first, imagine storing thumbnails in there even! copied objects had actual events, not something you have to dig cloudtrail for, you could get last update time from a bucket to make caching easier

Pooling money and resources will always be greater in quality efficiency and quantity than individual or privatized effort. Think about how inefficient decentralized blockchain computations are.
gutting gov services for measly tax cuts is atrocious and an attack on American people.
