CSS-Tricks didn't get paid $4m. They got acquired. The previous owner of CSS-Tricks got $4m.

There's a difference between when people have a platform. Made a mistake 10 years ago? Fine.

But that's very different than using your huge platform today to spread your hate.

Pretending those two are the same is dangerous. One of them does actual harm today.

Because being friendly works doesn't work. Open source maintainers have been screaming about funding for years. One dude comes along, adds some scripts on top of all the work of those maintainers, and gets millions in funding?

You can't expect people to be nice then. It's completely messed up.

There's separate tags for the social media profiles. So those can still be added.

I appreciate this a lot, but I wonder why the first edit is not done on the website itself. This is 15 minutes of work for a single change, while on the website you can do it in a minute.

Yeah sorry man, that's clearly IKEA so it's obvious they had to act on it. Can't sell IKEA-branded games without their permission. Even on their Steam trailer, the first second is clearly IKEA. Just changing the name is not enough. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1593010/The_Store_is_Clos...

Sometimes it's not that deep. Sometimes the cute little indie dev just made a mistake.

The game is also not out yet, even though rewards were promised in June 2024.

I have a roll of velcro for this. Massive roll, and I cut off small 7-8cm pieces.

You could take an area of Google Earth and let it be 'improved' by AI. So you could add a playground instead of a parking lot, or add migrants near a border post.

Due to consequences unforeseen by Google, it was used more for the latter.

I'm not sure how statistics track it, but when you're moderator on a subreddit you can see how many visitors use old reddit.

Last month for mine it was 1%. Now. This could be more due to their tracking not working for most old reddit users (I assume most have adblock), but it's unlikely to be a lot more.

The large majority of Reddit users are on the app. I'm honestly surprised they haven't killed old reddit off yet, and yes, I've used it myself for the longest time until I started missing some features.

Bosch is one of those companies that makes a lot of different things. I own powertools, kitchen appliances and car parts from them.

Google API keys have been used for ages on the frontend. For example on Google Maps embeds. Those are not possible without exposing a key to the frontend. They weren't secret, until Gemini arrived.

Maybe even have multiple people in each pod, and on the set track, have common stops where people are likely to get on/off.

It's automatic. So if you open Facebook, or any Meta site, it automatically puts it in it's own container.

Together with Privacy Badger, Meta has no clue what you're doing on the rest of the web.

What points to this being written by an LLM?

I'm not sure if the 1800kWh is correct here. I'm guessing it's one of these two:

- You're talking about what heat pumps use in electricity. However, the system would store heat. If a heat pump uses 1 kWh to get 3 kWh of heat into the house, a heat based storage system needs to store the 3 kWh.

- You're confusing gas & electricity. 1800 m3 in gas would be about correct. However, that's about 9,5 kwh per m3 in heat.

There are interesting heat storage methods though, there is a long term basalt heat storage system in 'Ecodorp Boekel' in The Netherlands. It uses solar to heat during the summer and heats the homes with that in winter.

Due to size though, it only really works in 'collective' communities. The bigger the size, the more heat it can store per size.

It's YouTube. This is super common, just worded in a weird way.

It's possible to store energy for full seasons, just not electricity.

It's been done with heat. Using cheap electricity in the summer to generate heat and store it in basalt. There's a small block of houses in The Netherlands that gets their heat that way: https://www.ecodorpboekel.nl/basaltaccu-is-opgebouwd-uit-duu...

There's more systems like this around the world, although they use different storage methods.

What range are you getting in winter at 85km/h?

Currently trying to get rid of our petrol car but knowing realistic range up front is rough. I'm fine with driving slower.

Does the UK not have an option for hourly-pricing? That's usually where as a consumer you can have the most gains. In the summer, with solar panels, my energy bill is negative (in The Netherlands)

I agree it's not the equivalent, but the file could've contained things like Minecon attendees. That would still mean it's badly secured of course, but putting a huge community effort behind it and youtubers making 'Biggest Secret in Minecraft' videos about it would suddenly turn into very bad taste.

The cracking basically started the moment youtubers presented it as 'a mystery'.

It's solved, full write-up here: https://www.reddit.com/r/MinecraftUnlimited/comments/1cvo5py...

Tl:dr; It was a release file for their Minecon event. It was never meant to be public. Obsessing over a password protected in a company's S3 bucket is weird and crosses many limits.

That's turning locations into coordinates (ip geolocation). It's to be expected that the gps log only bases their logs on the coordinates from the GPS from the phone.

That's a very good one, but in my case it was a huge billboard that was advertising movies and stuff.

It had cubes in different colors so from further away it would look like an image.

This used to exist! I remember a video about this large analog billboard in Amsterdam (?).

Unfortunately I can't find the video. Will edit if I do (or anybody else finds it first).

I experience this a lot. I have a Fairphone 5 and helping provide answers to questions in threads online is a minefield. You answer questions of someone, and somebody else comes along and starts shouting they want feature x.

People seem to flock to smaller phone companies and demand they fill in their one feature. Whether it's USB-OTG display functionality, headphone jack, slider to kill all connections, etc, everybody is convinced their one feature is holding this phone company back, just because they want this one feature.

It's just disappointing. I'm just happy with my long-lasting repairable phone.

There's two types of built-in LLM's:

- The ones the user sees (like a sidepanel). These often use LLM API's like OpenAI.

- The browser API ones. These are indeed local, but are often very limited smaller models (for Chrome this is Gemini Nano). Results from these would be lower quality, and of course with large contexts, either impossible or slower than using an API.

I don't understand the 'human verification' aspect.

Your docs show a simple image where the user can choose to keep a new object or not. [0] Afterwards it says: "The ones you chose to keep will be uploaded to OpenStreetMap using upload_osm.". This is uploading features automatically. The fact that it asks 'are you sure' is just silly. We all know if humans have to click yes 90% of the time, and no 10% of the time, they'll miss a lot of no's.

The image also proofs that:

- You don't see any polygons properly. You just see a an image of where the pool is. Already on the image I can see that if the polygons align to that image, it will be a total mess.

- You don't see any polygons further away from the object.

Both these points are in stereo's reply that the resulted data was a mess.

Please consider pulling the project. This will generate a lot of data that volunteers will have to check and revert.

Can you link the (now reverted) changesets? I can't seem to find them.
