Interesting. I hadn't heard of that directly, but I've never found it to be true. I've found momentum and continuation to be more useful than rest or relaxation when it comes to tackling big things.

i wonder if support for DIY backup tools isn't prioritized when a future iCloud monthly subscription will be pushed eventually.

I think Facebook still thinks I'm older than I am from my middle-school signup in like 2008

Not even just Los Alamos. It was a very common color for schools and hospitals

Chrome or Edge only it says

Just block them. I haven't seen a short in months.

I want one that responds by asking how full the parking lots are and how busy the left turn lane is

Part of the problem is the word "replacement" kills nuanced thought and starts to create a strawman. No one will be replaced for a long time, but what happens will depend on the shape of the supply and demand curves of labor markets.

If 8 or 9 developers can do the work of 10, do companies choose to build 10% more stuff? Do they make their existing stuff 10% better? Or are they content to continue building the same amount with 10% fewer people?

In years past, I think they would have chosen to build more, but today I think that question has a more complex answer.

Jevon's Paradox is know as a paradox for a reason. It's not "Jevon's Law that totally makes sense and always happens".

You don't need to draw the line between tech experts and the tech-naive. Plenty of people have the capability but not the time or discipline to execute such a thing by hand.

ios 26 has made my 13 mini consistently laggier and hotter

Generally most distribution costs are socialized starting with the REA and such. My block needed a new transformer a few weeks ago and it will be paid for by every customer of that utility.

We've been hearing these claims for a long time that they're going to crack down soon.

Is Anki that much better than, say, Quizlet?

Stopped anyone from doing what? Assigning responsibility to someone with nothing to lose, no dignity or pride, and immune from financial or social injury?

This video helped me solidify my opinion that the Golden Ratio is no more attractive or appealing than any other fraction or ratio.

because it doesn't have any skin in the game and can't be punished, and can't be rewarded for succeeding. Its reputation, career, and dignity are nonexistent.

I've had Bose 700s, Sennheisers, Anker Soundcore, and probably other bluetooth earbuds and none of them come close to the simplicity of the Airpods. The Bluetooth handoff and pairing is insanely easy and works within a second or two. I've never once had to go to Bluetooth settings to force it to pair.

iOS keyboards are hardly different from one another

i just use Brave for iOS. I use the setting to block Youtube shorts, default to old.reddit, block ads and annoyances, etc.

speak for yourself

a lot of people have custom exhausts, particularly catback systems that don't affect emissions. A lot of people are definitely not rolling coal.

No it's not. It never makes any distinction between training and inference. It just lumps it all together as "running" the models.

Training is the expensive part here. It seems much more likely that the training of these models slows down drastically and is written off as a sunk cost, a few companies continue running inference on years-old models, and the free versions go away.

I live in a Dutch community in the midwestern US, which is very much a "Guesser" culture, while our ancestors in the Netherlands are one of the most "Asker" societies. The difference is incredibly stark despite having a very similar genetic base

I've lived in the South and the midwest and it really isn't any different in either place

iOS 26 has been really hard on my 13 mini. Most menus lag, you have to wait sometimes 5 seconds for the control center menu to pop up sometimes. I dug my old Samsung S20 FE out of the drawer, applied the last few security patches, and it still runs more smoothly than the newer iPhone.

it really doesn't work, the cursor will often snap right back especially when you're using a search or URL bar

I switched from Android a couple years ago and this is the things that still irritates me the most.

I'm just talking about text generated by human beings. You can keep retraining with more parameters on the same corpus
