I think they detected instead of identified, as far as I know they didn't get the identity of the hacker.

In your opinion, what is the ebook reader you like the most ?

This is so infuriating, per the article "The approval comes months after devastating wildfires, and will add an average $600 a year to homeowners’ bills". the wildfires caused this level of damage in part due to the lack of water to fight them and the lack of water was due to bad management from the city/county/state leadership that neglected the systems that supported the water network and water availability.... so at the end of the day people is paying for the negligence of these people.

My home insurance is now tripled what is use to be in 2024 and all of this without a single claim on my side.

This is giving me some strong Voronoi vibes

If they care so much about stopping this book then it must mean they really care about preventing the truth to see the light and for people to know what really goes behind closed doors.

EDIT: Also, I believe they stopped promotion, but not selling.

that's nice! My house is 100% solar powered and 90% covered by a 90KHW battery system that I use both as a backup if there is an outage and also daily to power the house when there is no sun to produce electricity.

The other 10% is my garage where all my equipment is stored, so I want a smaller 20-25KWH battery system for it.

We are not taking about billboards here, we are talking about copyrighted works, like books. If you want to do mental gymnastics and call "consuming" the web the act of downloading books without paying for them, then go ahead, but don't pretend the rest will buy your delusion.

or teslers!

> just like a model could

It is not remotely the same, the companies training the models are stealing the content from the internet and then profiting from it when they charge for the use of those models.

If they want to avoid paying for the creative effort of authors and other artists then they should also not charge for the use of their models.

Is it possible to power the devices from the battery during the night and then charge during the day (where solar energy is being produced)?

I used to play this game when a kid but with four number 4 instead. Just operators (+,!,/,-,*, ^, etc)

What I like about iceberg is that the partitions of the tables are not tightly coupled to the subfolder structure of the storage layer (at least logically, at the end of the day the partitions are still subfolders with files), but at least the metadata is not tied to that, so you can change the partition of the tables going forward and still query a mix of old and new partitions time ranges.

In the other hand, since one of the use cases they created it at Netflix was to consume directly from real time systems, the management of the file creation when updates to the data is less trivial (the CoW vs MoR problem and how to compact small files) which becomes important on multi-petabytes tables with lots of users and frequent updates. This is something I assume not a lot companies put a lot of attention to (heck, not even at Netflix) and have big performance and cost implications.

Nice! It would be great to have per character voices

It’s odd that MS is releasing models they are competitors to OA. This reinforce the idea that there is no real strategic advantage in owning a model. I think the strategy is now offer cheap and performant infra to run the models.

the sound quality

I like Qobuz, have you tried it ?

I looks like codon has less restrictions when compared to shed skin.

The AI bubble is safe and sound!

This, plus the fact many of the products sold by Amazon now are fakes and low quality items. I almost never order from Amazon now and doing it blindly via Alexa is not an option.

> If a conflict with China ever comes to pass, it is not at all predestined that the US will repeat its WW2 feat rather than its WW1 experience.

Exactly, I see it pretty hard to pull the same feat again unless there is a very big alignment with the companies that have installed capacity in the country.

Interesting! We did something similar for distributed query engines like presto and Spark, instead of indexes we use partitions and buckets, the benefits are less compute, time and money.

Flatito means “little burp” in Chilean Spanish

If anything they should promote the commercialization of these type of devices so the cars and other tech products get safer. They are just trying to hide the real issue.

I don’t understand why Spotify keeps diluting its focus. I moved to Qobuz once a bunch of podcast started to pollute the UI and now it is only getting worse.

This is so important, growing at a small and healthier pace.

Some companies try to make the reason of their existence to grow as fast as possible, no matter what.... and in the process they destroy the value they originally offered to its customers, processes, people and quality controls.. for what?

There was a class from Darden School that talked about that, I recommend reading this summary from it https://iveybusinessjournal.com/publication/growth-to-greatn...

another nice option is Qobuz, the sound quality is good for the newer releases.

Good thing there are better browsers out there. As long as they don’t mess with the transport we should be good

Shorts have just downsides in my mind:

- not enough time to provide quality content

- dilution of engagement, because the lack of meaningful content you can produce and consume in a few seconds/minutes

- further promote short span focus which is bad for long term development
