This is really well made. I can see myself doing a few runs a day.

Please don’t. Just use an openstreetmaps application instead. CoMaps is pretty solid. Jumping from one private/closed source company to another is not really the best route towards privacy.

I don’t think the article is saying the business tactic is novel. It’s pointing out that they are having trouble executing it. Being stuck for 6 months trying to distribute $38B worth of debt is not a good indicator, especially as the AI world is still full steam ahead on generating more of this type of debt.

I was onboard with most of this until it slowly transitioned into corpo-bootlicking by the end. Instead of pushing support for potential FOSS alternatives and supporting their human coded effort to fight the subscription plague, the author just settles on “hey just subscribe to adobe and their shit business practices”

Go support Blender, Gimp, etc instead of Ai vibe “coders” or money hungry corporations.

My background is very much not in this world so caveat my questions/response below with that mind set. I do however try to practice decent personal opsec such 2fa (TOTP), password manager with random generation, etc.

I feel like a lot of what you stated was covered in the article. For example the article states that problem isn’t the number of stakeholders, it’s that none of them are consumer advocacy groups.

I understand that the author maybe leaned on the password sharing example too much but I think that was in an effort to present the material in a friendlier manner to the average reader. The closing statement makes it clear it’s not really about Netflix, etc. The main concern is that attested passkey requirement will now be the easiest way to force specific software and hardware upon user. The GraphenOS example is a good one.

You might not use the attested flag in that manner but I have zero doubt that once passkey adoption rate passes a certain threshold Google will be more than glad to miss-use that flag to lock people out of their gmail account unless they have the most recent phone and software.

Do you have any examples of any public service requiring attested keys? No, because it really doesn’t make sense. But because the protocol supports it, people shouldnt use passkeys? Shitty hot take.

I think this is a bad take. “Because this potential is not being misused right now it won’t be a problem in the future” has not really served us well thus far.

My understanding is that the article is saying that passkeys are giving away too much control to the second party. That can and will be abused.

But again, layman’s understanding from my end.

Google’s product history is readily available. Anyone that willingly buys one of these deserves all of the inevitable headaches.

You underestimate how many people have just forgone the usage of search engines. Most people these days just go to their preferred AI site or app and just take at face value whatever slop it spits out. No one reads or verifies anymore. It would be something if they were using that “saved time” on something productive but alas it’s just to go back to doom scrolling or something else just as meaningless. It’s depressing :/

One of the parents is a cop. I’m guessing they looked for the most lenient charge that would still feel “reasonable” to those involved.

Two recommendations would be to use “overlords” instead of “landlords” I think former is a better catchall than the latter.

Second recommendation, on the “Find an App” page it should auto-scroll to the list below when you select one of the large pills. Or alternatively, do away with the big selection pills altogether. No reason to have two filtering methods that accomplish the same thing on the same page.

I think super hero “stuff” is similar to sci-fi and westerns in that it has become a genre. And just like the two much older genres it started as the main focus of movies and shows where not much else was required to provide for an exciting event. However as more and more content gets released it will have to evolve into the backdrop or foundation for telling a much bigger story, ones that go beyond simple bad vs good or world invasion/ending crisis.

Westerns and sci-fi eventually figured that out. Some of the best movies and shows in both genres are ones that use them to explore complex themes about humanity at both the micro and macro scale. I think Supacell is on the right track for doing that and hopefully doesn’t fall back in to typical tropes with future seasons.

The video doesn’t “try” to show her as anything it just captures a moment in court. You can attribute to it what you want. What I see is the extreme results of bipolar disorder after a lifetime of abuse and lack of treatment. It is a stark example of a society that failed their citizen. Here is someone who had enough humanity somewhere in their system to just cry and want a hug from someone they loved before facing the consequences. I’m not even bipolar but I don’t know what kind of human being I would be if I literally faced abuse since infancy.

To me the video doesn’t take away the heinousness of the crime, it just brings into the focus how these types of situations aren’t always some cut and dry stereotypical “evil person does evil things”.

Wow the old “foreigners on welfare are draining your country” lie works over in Japan too huh. It’s kind of sad to see the populace and now the government turn back towards more xenophobia even as their country is on track for population collapse. I know they have had some terrible experiences with foreigner tourists, but I would think directing that frustration towards people willing to immigrate, work, and support their economy is not the right move. Guess it’s better to die off as closed country than open your doors.

To add to your points, LLMs are also not free of biases that the poster above and others have to deal with. The same medical biases are more than likely part of the training data used to develop these LLM. Medical biases are just now being fully understood so that data is no where near as prevalent as the sea of historical biased data.

Could not get past paywall

How convenient. The circular financing is starting to hit its breaking point and all of a sudden all these companies that were praising “AI” decide to stock fear and use that as an excuse to push IPO off further. Going to IPO would have meant revealing to the world the pile of cash they have been setting on fire.

It is such bullshit that this is even opt out. The level of non-consensual data gathering is infuriating and disappointing.

It is important to note that this was an observational study, meaning it can only show an association between higher xylitol levels and cardiovascular events, rather than proving that xylitol directly caused them, and further research is needed. But it is not a green light to have more sugar instead, as we still need to reduce our free sugar intake

Correlation vs Causation caveat is strongly needed here

I had a Costa Rican iced pour over this weekend that was fantastic. It was at a local coffee shop and I liked it so much I had to bad a small bag of the beans even though it was really pricey. I’m hoping to try replicating it at home with my V60 later this week.

Better mental health care, better education, more strict gun laws. It took 30 seconds to think of solutions other than a surveillance state all of which also are less susceptible to abuse and misuse by single individuals with access to a wide ranging surveillance system.

Most mass shooters have not at all been concerned about getting caught, just doing as much damage as possible before getting killed it caught. Unless the idea is to start with “pre-crime” levels of surveillance, in which case big oof.

Wouldn’t have thought of Gosling for this role but he’s been great in everything where he was given a half decent script. My concern is more with what the script/screenplay will have rather than his acting chops. He’s done romcom, action, and comedy really well so hard to see him failing at this barring a terrible script.
