I received the same error, but it was followed by this line in the logs, which might explain the lack of inference requests assume there is actual demand...

WARN STT backend failed health check — model will NOT be advertised

Browser consistency for print styles is like building websites in the late 90s. Chrome, Firefox, Safari all handle margins, page breaks differently. Not to mention setting page/paper size...

If anyone enjoys this topic, I would recommend reading "A Thread Across the Ocean: The Heroic Story of the Transatlantic Cable" by John Steele Gordon.

GPUs are highly specialized CPUs, especially good at some types of number crunching. In analytics workloads, they are used to run queries that can benefit from that specialization. This is not for your typical GPU graphics based use (games/graphics). Has nothing to do with what you see on the screen/frame rate.

If you are on a Mac, try changing your color profile in System Preferences | Displays | Color to something like 'Adobe RGB' or 'Display P3'. That allowed me to see the logo, as for a difference in the photos in the original post, not so much...

Slightly off topic: I'd really love to see a new iPod, one that isn't a slimmed down iPhone.

I run a lot and miss the iPod Nano (7th Generation). It was a really good single purpose device. It worked perfectly and was super light.

I realize the replacement is the Apple Watch. But the Apple Watch still doesn't replace my Garmin from a running perspective.

Plus, I haven't found a pair of Bluetooth headphones that work as well or reliably as a pair of $15 Sony ear buds.

Try Indicative https://www.indicative.com. (I’m the CEO) Our platform is a customer analytics platform, similar to the ones mentioned, but has a one-click integration for Snowplow based data warehouses. It is designed for product and marketing teams, to easily perform customer behavioral analysis without the direct need for data teams or coding skills.

It looks as if in the next several months Firefox will become all but invisible from most 3rd party trackers as Firefox ”will strip cookies and block storage access from third-party tracking content, based on lists of tracking domains by Disconnect.” [1]

The full list of trackers that will be blocked by default is substantial. [2]

Data volume-based pricing is a bit out of control across most analytics/data products. My company has been moving away from volume-based pricing to a feature/value-based model.

The big challenge is aligning data scale to company size/price.

I suspect Segment is trying to solve for this very problem with their price increases but at the expense of smaller business. The 'startup' program is a great way for them to keep the platform accessible to new businesses. I applaud them for that.

Shameless plug: My company Indicative (https://www.indicative.com), a customer/behavioral analytics platform that integrates with Segment. We offer 1 billion events/user actions a month for free for Segment users, so that all companies, especially startups can start using data in bringing their products to market and without having to worry about data limits.

Funny, that twitter post is actually from 1 year ago today. "12:23 PM - 18 Apr 2013". That is a bizarre coincidence.

Regardless, I may have jumped the gun given that I seem to be the only one with an issue.

It stopped working for me despite the usual fixes. Their homepage is returning a HTTP 421 as of this post. Google still had the cache of the site which makes me think that their site not working was a recent change.

Still not working for me unfortunately.

The best place I have found to learn about Angular is http://egghead.io . The videos are really clear and concise.

Many of the more confusing Angular fundamentals that many tutorials like these don't stress egghead.io has short 2 to 3 minute videos explaining in very clear terms.

PS. I know I sound like a shill, but I have nothing do with egghead.io other then I've found them immensely useful.
