(Feel free to reach out, I'm happy to meet you.)
Thanks, AltaVista LiveTopics is a good keyword. I found:
https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Alta-Vista-LiveTopic-Gra...
which has some different coverage.
I did try to archive the blog you linked but unfortunately the owner is blocking it with robots.txt

That feature sounds amazing! I tried searching wayback etc but wasn't able to find any more details. Do you happen to know of any screenshots / deeper descriptions for it?
Perhaps we could nerd snipe Marginalia Search to add it :)
Slumber is a terminal-based HTTP client, built for interacting with REST and other HTTP clients
I wonder what that means -- I looked around the docs but didn't see that it interacts with other clients. I thought maybe it would show a generated curl command or something along those lines. But perhaps it's just a typo for HTTP servers?
With a previously registered trademark -- the article says it has been "listed as 'dead”' by the US Patent & Trademark Office" and unused for decades.
It's perhaps a confused reference to their old company, Nielsen Norman Group (NN/g).
New? You haven't been able to buy a new Holden since '21.
We’re not just maintaining CodeCommit—we’re investing in it.
Thanks, AI blog writer. Did the AI product manager see too much customer pushback hitting your AI account managers?
Health services are state based in AU; would be great to hear which state you're talking about
"O", you're on a typewriter! :)
Sometimes, late at night when I'm trying to sleep, and I hear the grumble of a Harley, or my neighbors staggering to their door, I wonder: why do we not have earflaps, like we do eyelids?
Thanks, I found that version much more engaging and understandable.
Well, perhaps it's an AI writing about a tool...
No API routes. No request/response cycles. No DTOs. Just… objects that magically sync. It kind of feels like cheating.
Making slippery slope arguments like this is not discussing in good faith. I was providing the context of someone who lives in that geo-political area.
Because folks don't want to enable drink-drivers and speeders? Maybe they want to use their roads with some basic level of safety?
My guess (it would be nice if they actually said...) is that they were missing the required lang attribute on their HTML.
<html lang=en>
We used to have this problem in AWS Rekognition; a poorly detected face -- e.g. a blurry face in the background -- would hit with high confidence with every other blurry face. We fixed that largely by adding specific tests against this [effectively] null vector. The same will work for text or other image vectors.
What IRC network(s) do you like nowadays?
And it was only parallax pseudo-3D. It wasn't anything like the 3DS lenticular stereo effect. Four (!) head-tracking cameras on the front tried to understand where you were looking, and then the UI would shift about in response. There was no convincing 3D effect.
The intention was that the UI would reveal extra info (like meta-data about a photo, or calendar details) when you shifted your head POV. Like a gesture that you could do one-handed while riding the bus. (But not discoverable, and twitchy, and tail-wagging-the-dog.)
Given how coarse the tracking had to be so that the UI wasn't constantly shifting, it would have been far simpler and more energy efficient just to use the accelerometer instead of the fancy camera setup. And just use that for some nice parallax effects in the launcher; not as a core UI interaction.
Cloudflare does offer rate limiting - it's in Security / WAF / Rate limiting rules.
On the free plan it is perhaps a bit limited in the rules you can create (match based on bot or URL regex, limit by # requests per IP per 10 seconds). But still pretty useful for slowing stupid requests.
https://developers.cloudflare.com/waf/rate-limiting-rules/cr...
And / or you can use Transform Rules to better normalize the Origin URLs so that the query string or other path info doesn't create new origin requests. Or more simply, enable Ignore Query String in the Cache Settings.
I run an 8GB M1 as my main desktop for Java development and it's 70% fine. I needed a replacement for my previous PC during covid/cpu shortages and in AU, there were no 16GB versions available. (So the upsell argument is not the only part of the story).
For running Chrome, IntelliJ, Spotify, Terminal, fuzz tests etc at once, it's fine. But running YourKit profiling or Steam etc, everything else swaps out and grinds.
So: it's amazing to me that you can do so much with just 8GB,and egregious that Apple can't put in a couple of slots for an extension.
If it was decompiled, that's not really reverse engineering though. So I'm not confident that the DMCA carve out would apply here.
And that one driver now carries all the responsibility. To automate them out, you need 100% accuracy which closes in on impossible to achieve. Any lack of perfection would be down to the automator. So it's a very scary piece to take on when there's no human in the loop left to hold the bag when something goes wrong.
Sounds great! Do you remember the name / city of the winery?
There are definitely electronic Braille reading devices. They're called refreshable braille displays, and are often also combined with a specialized keyboard.
Wider adoption could conceivably improve these interfaces through more users and commercial interest.
Push down a little bit
[Self-reply] I ended up getting the L size and am very happy with it. The XL was only a little taller (1cm), but wider.
Still getting used to it, but first impressions are that it's comfortable, helps give good posture, and the rocking & recline options are great to mix things up.
It's my first gamer-style chair vs a regular office chair. The side bolsters and head rest are a great addition. I have often felt more comfortable in my car than in my office, and this is a step towards that kind of setup.
Those look decent, and I had a similar outcome with my Aeron back in the day. Which size Titan did you get, the L or XL? Am same height as you and am guessing the XL would be better?
Really? My 2020 Outback 3.6 has dedicated buttons for driver's and passenger's heated seats. They are four stage, depending on how hot I want my bot.
Maybe different trim levels move more things to physical buttons than touch screens?
Absolutely. And so they have a light sensor in the dashboard, which will crank up the aircon when the sun is hitting it.
I read this post this morning and felt pretty smug in my choice to use Windows.
But when I went to share a photo this evening, I found that the Chrome file picker in Windows is actually much worse! Not only does it not show previews for thumbnails, it doesn't even show the image in the detail pane. It just shows the registered application icon. So, you get a sea of big blue (E) Internet Explorer icons.
Not sure if this is a Chrome or a Windows thing, or if there's a setting for it. But as a user, I clicked about a bunch and couldn't find a way to see the actual images.
