I’m doing a PhD on machine learning so… No, I want to create tools to assist professionals and improve QoL, not to fuck them.

IMO the best case scenario for a truly real AI would be Data, but I think it would be more probable we ended with Lore.

I’m not sure if it counts as an AD but seems like an AD, many many moons ago (I think when Apple TV+ was introduced), they changed the “home screen” with the apps in your Apple TV to an Apple TV+ one with their content (and some linked from other platforms).

The apps view still exists but now the “home” button gets you to the Apple TV+ one unless you click it again from there (unless you accidentally scrolled a bit and the button) or double click it to open the menu with the recently opened apps.

There’s a lot of old bright orange mugs that if you take a Geiger counter (dosimeter) to it it’ll will go crazy when you get right up to contact.

And the company know pretty well the dangers, the men who worked with the material used protection against the radiation.

As a developer in a non English speaking country, in the last decade having English in your resume has moved from nice-to-have to mandatory, now the nice to have is having a third one.

Star Trek: Lower Decks #1 arrives on November 13. You can order issue 1 or upcoming issues at TFAW. Or pick up individual digital editions at Amazon/comiXology.

Thanks to Amazon after buying vomiXology, their aggressive geoblocking and monopolistic position there’s almost no legal way to read digital comics in their original version from USA in my country.

And importing physical editions is off the table, I did in the past and it doubles the price and almost never arrive in perfect conditions.

There are guardrails in place to avoid providing the user illegal and hateful information to the en user and specially to avoid situations like that (well not all companies do, but you can expect Google to have it in place),

I wonder: 1- How did the LLM hallucinate so much to generate that answer out of the blues given the previous context. 2- Why did the guardrails failed blocking this such obvious undesired output.

I would add that if isa News website, the 1000 words article is just a verbatim copy from Reuters.

I want more info about [something happening], not to read the same article with minimal information again and again.

This, when I decided to join Mastodon I was prompted to choose a server and had to research which one should join and understand how it works.

It is called UX friction and is well studied in sign up and checkout processes, the more steps the user has to perform the more likely it abandons it.

And disk serial numbers 😟

I have another one unlicked, I accept $750.000.

But the best part? It's a $5000 work laptop, and my 6 year old Thinkpad (with Linux) runs laps around the thing any day of the week. Opening the file explorer takes, most of the time, 5+ seconds...

In my previous job I was doing Java development on e-commerce (Hybris, then renamed to SAP Commerce) and the laptop (a beefy thinkpad) took ages from powering on to being able to work, also Java compilation could take 30 min and just starting up the project on local another 5.

Had the opportunity to install Linux (the policy was that dual boot was required and don’t disturb IT with Linux issues) and oh boy, from turning on to being able to work was incredible fast. Compiling went from 30 to 5 min (with same Java official version from oracle in order to avoid any implementation discrepancies between openjdk and the oracle JDK in prod), and starting tje local server went from have enough time for preparing a coffee to seconds.

Unfortunately my current job only allows Windows and the policies are too strict.

Not too late but later than I should have:

• To seek professional mental health help
• To understand that Bisexuality really exists. Growing up and in my teens in media and pop culture it’s seemed that you either were gay or straight, no other option.

Wait what? Why?
