doesnt VC money subsidise stuff all the time? Isnt that how Uber and AirBNB undercut competition?

UK government services guidance is to use progressive enhancement

Using omlx on the M1 max I get about 15tps from 27b

If select counts as a list, then I'd include radio buttons too because for single selection they're often a better choice

You could play back multiplayer Halo 3 matches in 3D, with a free camera. Was really interesting to see how matches played out, how you got killed and so on, and for taking cool screenshots.

https://railway.com is another good one

The regulation is only concerned with cookies that are not required to provide the service. It makes no differentiation between first party and third party - if you use cookies for anything optional (like analytics) you need consent. So you can have third party non-cookie analytics for example without a banner.

(I worked on this pattern) Our guidance is to accept both names and numbers in the back end so people can enter either. In our testing, text inputs (with a numeric keyboard on mobile) is better than selects. Some people struggle with using selects, we don't see those issues in text inputs. That guidance maybe be about people not knowing the order of the inputs (DD MM YY, MM DD YY) but our pattern is clearly labeled for each input so we don't get that issue.

We did continue our testing which resulted in the pattern in the design system which is linked.

For dates people know (say date of birth) just use text inputs

https://design-system.service.gov.uk/components/date-input/

might work out the opposite - 'ah I can do better than that, one more try'

ai tab Generate button is disabled for me, regardless of input

it's true, but these are more fragile than simply having clear link text, especially over time as a site is maintained

if you run the code and get an error you know there's a problem.

well, sometimes - other times it'll be wrong with no error, or insecure, or inaccessible, and so on

Note the downloadable csv of sites that presumably didn't consent to this

exactly. Silently refusing input is an anti-pattern

'transparent' in what sense?

This is a long running pattern for Matt:

"To Matt Mullenweg I want to say: please take better care of your community, because WordPress is nothing without it. Cherish the people who dedicate their (own) time and who work very hard to make WordPress the best it can be. Don’t ignore or make fun of them, but talk to them, guide them, inform them. Don’t be disconnected from the community, be part of it."

I was referring to real podcasts

a few real harms:

- massively inefficient use of energy, water and other resources at a time we really need to address climate crisis

- ai 'slop' with myriad mistakes and biases performing a mass DDOS on people trying to learn things and know what's true

- moving resources away from actually producing factual and original content

on a slightly different tack - games that are programming-like:

- Minecraft - Human Resource Machine - The Sequence (Android) - Any complex management game

interesting, why is this?

I still find Gemma 2 9b to be better than Llama 3.1 8b often

huh! I'm wrong!

I found this easier to understand

yeh that's wrong, its 40% on everything between £50,271 to £125,140, and 45% on everything above that

the problem is data created by the user can easily contain personal data

so if you wrote a book in Google docs, Google should have just as much right to it as you? Or Microsoft should have just as much right to the app you write in VS Code?
