Interrupting the radar service when they plan an attack?
I feel the need to tell the LLM to rewrite the article for a software developer audience, but don't, those kinds of passage are hard to overcome:

'Salva opened up his code editor — essentially a word processor for writing code — to show me what it’s like to work alongside Gemini, Google’s L.L.M. '

And what's up with L.L.M, A.I., C.L.I. :)

Ollama runs all local, away from prying corps.

The name is probably inspired by TV Garden from Nam June Paik from the 70s

Didn't know, are they individuals working independently with some 'services' to provide targets/money laundering or are they part of organized crime or payroll? I am curious in the support structures they are embedded in.

Same, better to think about ways to actually help them than mock them.

How do you know they are not done by slaves?

Podcasts, brrrrr

Audio works on the subway, on the bike, while riding a bike, cleaning the house and the big one, driving a car. To get into a situation where you can both watch and listen is much rarer.

Same, I use it all the time and never perceived it as slow. I am not a tmux user, maybe the speed is noticeable when using more complex terminal apps like that?

I refer to dark city all the time when creating AI agents, when Kiefer would inject them with particular memories when the city stood still. And Shell Beach pops into my mind when I take the train to the former grandios Coney Island.

Existenz was another unique underappreciated movie of that year and whose theme never got picked by any other movie. When Jude Law realizes that the Chinese food he is eating can be put together to assemble the gun my mind was blown.

Its like parenting, be loose and strict in the same way. You have to find a good balance given the team composition and corporate restrictions.

It has to be useful for large organizations like for example IBM who need to maintain consistency on various domains, displays and media types. But I suspect it also can stiffle innovation.
Re:Design Token-Based UI Architecture on Wednesday December 18, 2024 @10:15AM (#42451098)
Agree, you tap into the rigidness of a semantic color and type hierarchy, while allowing utility classes for specifics of a platform/environment.
Re:Design Token-Based UI Architecture on Wednesday December 18, 2024 @09:05AM (#42450492)
This makes sense to me, but it seems to contrary to the current utility-based css wave. For example 'text-red-100' for error message text wouldn't be in style dictionary like that, it would be 'text-color-error' since using 'text-red-100' would always be red 100 and not able to change the text-yellow-500.

Point being isn't that a route back to semantic styling? I much prefer the maintainability cycles of semantic styling over the onslaught of classes in i.e. tailwind.
