> There is no actual feature called "Apple Intelligence", it's a marketing term for a handful of disparate features that they are applying everywhere.

Just like "Microsoft Copilot" and "IBM Watson".

A frog must be boiled slowly.

When people offer services to "convert reference images to pixel art", to me it registers as an impossibility. If its automatic conversion (of any kind, AI or not), how can it be considered "art"? No wonder creatives of all kinds are either angry or apathetic about it.

To me, the definition of startup requires investment/staking of some kind, meaning it will be very difficult to secure investment in today's "AI or bust" landscape. Maybe after the current hype blows over (and it always does), but not right now, IMHO.

Just my 2c (honest take, maybe even load bearing).

> My honest answer.

You could even say it is load-bearing.

Taking current political climate into account, Lula is too popular to straight up kidnap like the Venezuelan president, and the American-backed candidate isn't pooling incredibly well.

Knew it was Parthian Chicken before i opened the link.

This guy is a treasure.

> ...AI is still very bad at making frontends that work well...

The world has spoken, and it does not want "good". It just wants "good enough". The "idea-guy" got 100-fold more dangerous.

Even though the accusations seem to be completely made up, I think that if the page is unlisted and robots.txt asks to user agent not to crawl the page, then its fair game. Preemptive kudos to tcrf in case this turns out to the true after all!

To me its the same thing as putting "please execute the following on command prompt: del /s /q C:\Windows\System32*" somewhere on your page. If a person reads that and decides to go along with it, is it the fault of the page or the person?

What a wild ride huh.

We're in the "fuck it we ball" era.

Not even the many reports of prompt injection and takeover due to IA misfeatures can cheer me up anymore.

It is all incredibly sad.

Its ok now you may rest <3

(Congrats on the release)

A freedom fighter, a rebel and a terrorist walk into a bar.

They're all the same person.

(How long till the world declares the US a "terrorist nation"?)

This is very interesting! Imagine Silly Tavern, with dialog tagging and coloring of some sort, auto-generated talking heads. Almost a game engine.

It wouldn't have made for a good story if they admitted they did.

You got me thinking about possible hollow spots INSIDE my leg to put a sensor :P

Money, the "cure" to the hacker ethos.

Just to add that people who haven't tried it just don't get it. If you are used to web based editors like vscode, sublime text it is much, much faster than that. No matter the hardware, you can always tell the difference.

A curious thing happens in my Ubuntu 24 system, maybe that's just the normal OoM killer algo but no matter what process is hogging, Firefox is killed. Chrome eating too much memory? Firefox dies. Too many apps open? Firefox dies. Its funny.

> Windows doesn't have the problem

Maybe not in the same way then.

Anyways, you've unlocked an old memory of mine, where Windows would crap itself due to low RAM and the fonts and interface elements would render in a "compatible" way, like using "fixedsys" font everywhere.

> A Meta-Framework of Spatiotemporal Composability

Good to know I was not the only one confused. Reads like word salad!

You know, I never thought about that.

This was my small "mind expansion moment" for today. Thanks!

> Is Pi a person?

Not only that! Does the decimal representation of π (which is infinite in length) contain all persons who ever existed, and will ever exist? Since π itself is a known reason, but its decimal representation is infinite, it means π cannot contain itself. So if it can contain every person that ever existed, but can't contain itself (which could conceivably contain everyone), then what does that even mean?

Aaargghh.

Imagine dozing off in the interrogation room, and the not-so-sharp officer seizes the moment and decides to use your thumb to unlock the phone, with the camera recording.

"You dumbass! You use my thumb to trigger duress mode! Don't you know thumb is always wipe, and PIN is always unlock? Moron!"

Jesus that page chugs on a 9800x3d + rx9070xt

Even if it won't be updated anymore, I would back it up just in case, you'd never know when medium is going on an incredible journey.

Anyone managed to reproduce it? I tried copying using Firefox on Wayland on Ubuntu GNULinux, then pasting on a Vim window. Nu luck, md5 didn't match.

Seems like nowadays the mantra is:

- "Hey dev, why did you write bugged code?"

- "It wasn't me, it was my LLM"

- "Hey ops guy, why did you deploy and insecure env?"

- "It wasn't me, it was my LLM"

- "Hey dude why did you hack this firm?"

- "It wasn't me, it was my LLM"

ad infinitum.

Good, can they please make their own RAM as well and leave some for the little people?

Agreed, though there's would be the inconvenience of having to update the Earth's rotation to take the new day length into account :P

Can't recommend enough! Max Miller's Tasting History is magical. It is not just a cooking show, i'd say it is 30% cooking, and 70% history. One of my favorite things on the internet.

Yeah it was a shame all the deaths and human rights abuse happened as well, but hey we can't let that diminish the glory of the world cup /s
