I use the Gemini web interface just as I would ChatGPT. They also have coding environment analogues of Claude-Code in Anti-gravity and Gemini-CLI.

When you sign up for the pro tier you also get 2TB of storage, Gemini for workspace and Nest Camera history.

If you're in the Google sphere it offers good value for money.

I know someone who has used this trick to get a pay rise whilst not looking for work.

You wait until your boss is in earshot, get someone to ring you and the walk quickly away from your desk saying "yes, yes I'm still interested... Just a sec".

It might make your boss actually consider the reality of replacing you.

The fuel costs alone would dwarf a data center build out.

Exactly, this is about attaching the AI hype bubble to all of his dealings before he offloads with an IPO (that still leaves him with 75% of the stock).

CRTs were so incredibly hard to manufacture it kind of blows my mind!

Also they were heavy, fragile and difficult to import. The components were usually shipped to the target countries and assembled there.

We must be around 10-15 generations in to LCD TVs at this point.

My son has "autism". He is 25 and needs constant supervision and care.

I feel that the word "autism" is now meaningless. I must know 50 of his cohorts and even though they're all "autistic" they can be quite different.

I also agree that his needs are underrepresented and drowned out by those mildly-affected who have the mental capacity to speak out for themselves.

They're also planning some overlap.

I can't get my head around it sometimes. I know most end up doing duties that a PIC-chip could do but the fact you can get a WiFi enabled microcontroller few a few bucks blows my mind.

The IO co-processing on the Pico is so powerful, I hope they expand on this.

Same for me, after a while you just want to do something the "managed" software doesn't support.

Now I just run Ubuntu/Samba and use KVM and docker for anything that doesn't need access to the underlying hardware.

If BlueSky want to be the Yin to Twitter's Yang i'd be okay with that.

Kids can't accidentally drive a car or ride a bus (and most towns in the UK have pay-to-ride buses).

The TVLA is borderline criminal.

It's the main reason I hate the BBC now.

What other service is openly accessible but you get fined if you use it?

Yes, if they offer a "news only subscription" at a reasonable price I would buy it.

I literally watch 0 British TV apart from the news.

I wish they would block iPlayer if you don't have a TV licence.

I personally haven't had a TV antenna or dish attached to my TV for years.

Most of my entertainment is YouTube!

I wish they would just lock it away behind a licensed paywall.

I used to be quite positive about the BBC, but since my daughter went to Uni, she has been hounded by the TV licensing company.

Now I am extremely negative about the BBC and I won't shed a tear when it loses its funding.

My wife's Galaxy Tab S7+ does this. It's configurable in the battery settings, 85% == 100% unless you disable the battery saving function.

Same in the UK, Church attendance has gotten a bit of a boost due to immigration but they are generally on the decline, and many are converted into houses or businesses.

Japan is #4 @ 40% religious.

Finland is one of the most orderly and happy countries, they seem to do fine without religious guidance.

They're a mostly atheist population.

See also Estonia, Japan.

Statistically, the US prison population is mostly made up of religious people.

I think we need a different word for "ethnically Jewish" and "belief in the faith of Judaism", the confusion between the people and the faith causes problems.

As an atheist, it seems like there is plenty of fanaticism on both sides.

Its impossible to "pick a side" in this conflict, there are good people and a*holes in both countries.

This is a better link (I hate linking to twitter these days):

This is the best explanation of Elon's mindset that I have seen.

Hopefully these changes should make Envoy sidecars (and sidecar co-existence in general) more reliable.

Nitter is also broken right now. I'm sure they'll work around it.

Looks like a more lightweight version of ntop. Very nice.

As someone who lives 200 meters from The Magic Roundabout, this is the kind of optimism I can get behind!

Humans are not large language models though. We got more intelligent through social structures and evolutionary pressure.

Could these LLMs also be subject to the second law of thermodynamics?

As in, no matter the size of the magnifying glass, you can't concentrate the sun's rays to produce a temperature greater than the surface of the sun.

Isn't it the same with models trained on large amounts of human output?
