By TDS do you mean people disgusted by the 4x indicted rapist ex us president? And that that disgust has somehow morphed into a dislike for a south african immigrant who became the wealthiest man in America?
Acquiring cancer to lose weight.
I've always felt incredibly sympathetic toward Charlie Brown and often pondered what message Charles Schultz was trying to convey with that trope.
What made Lucy like that?! I often think of the trope in the context of US politics, and specifically progressive capitulation to capital. I find it one of the darkest and yet prescient parts of Schultzes lore.. (Snoopy being an adult with a long, colorful history yet still treated as a dog, being another)
I agree. This is game changing. I've spent 30 years doing the same kind of operations manually over and over in windows file manager, cursing every time that the machine should know what I'm doing by now..
I asked chatgpt about the api for an old programming game called chipwits.. it invented a whole programming language that it called chiptalk with an amalgam of the original chipwits stuff, missing some bits and adding others, and generated a parser for it, which I implemented and got to work, before figuring out how much was imaginary, after talking to the original chipwits devs. They found it pretty amusing.
Aidea: a chatgpt query builder that you feed a snapshot of your online discourse, the surrounding contexts and it tries to find things like hypocrisy/ class/culture blindness, in how you communicate.. or think.
Incredible article. Really brought mack some memories and connected a bunch of threads that have wound through my life.. especially with the hologram stuff and Santa Cruz, the national geo hologram covers and beyond.. the mention of grass valley group.. I was literally next door in Nevada city when I read the article! Cool stuff!
Or maybe SEO has gotten more adversarial.
That's already here with NeRF
Most consumer machines have a literal supercomputer sitting mostly idle as you browse the web. Css is slow because it was designed for cpus and css doesn't map to gpus very cleanly. But Webgl/webgpu enable some incredible things.
Not to mention.. having a golden spoon in your mouth puts you into that 'entrepreneurial' mindset from birth, because being an entrepreneur validates all your privilege.
Edge is chrome.
It totally works. I've built robots controlled via web USB like 10 years ago. It's great. I've written midi tools that work with webmidi..they worked well also. Dunno why ppl are hating on it. Safari/FF are the new IE and IE is chromium now. It's a strange world but the way you get these standards adopted is to make killer apps that use them.
