(warning dumb question incoming): since android apps are java, is it possible for a third contender to create a jvm for their platform and some hooks for android api’s and run anything that was made for them?

I agree overall, with the caveat that it really depends on the infrastructure available and sprawl. I had flown in to a city late at night, and all the subways and busses had stopped for the night. My only option was a taxi or stay at the airport.

Back in the early 00s my host family had an imported left hand drive chevy blazer, and it felt enormous there. I can only imagine in the years since how ridiculous it would be with ballooning SUV sizes.

Looks like a lot of improvements on long-standing hard-to-find issues. Kudos to the team and thank you for providing an alternative OS that keeps getting better

But that’s not the right analogy, in my opinion. It would be a carpenter saying “I used to carve by hand, but now I tell the carving machine to make a chair and it spits it out.”

Could the sequence of events be:

1) open source project publishes source

2) AI scrapes source

3) AI generates code for proprietary game similar to that of the source

4) AI tool scans jar files and finds similar code, triggers copyright violation

“According to Beef Magazine” wasn’t a phrase I expected to read today, but I’m delighted to add it to my lexicon

I think the difference with the calculator analogies is a calculator just speeds up calculations you could do yourself (granted some very slowly). I can’t type in “sally has 35 apples, and wants to give an equal number to each of her 7 friends. how many apples does each get?” I have to know to do 35/7. But an ai will do that problem solving for me, with zero understanding on my part.

Really excited to give this a go! Being able to merge the two versions together is a killer feature.

Thanks for the info! That helps with the decision.

I was about to say, “coolnamesalltaken already has a pretty small one,” but you are them! I’m definitely excited by this project, I have something I wanted to add ADS-B integration to and this looks like an even better option!

As for a question, how do you balance low power with performance? Is there a target range or use case to decide the performance envelope?

Sure, the revenue per unit looks bad, but we’ll make it up in volume!

Makes me wonder, can any LLMs code in Logo? Could result in some interesting designs.

I think they’re a notch above the rest

I believe those are called “embellishments”, and they’re semi-common as a way to make a print “unique”, but still cost way less than the original the print was copied from. From the couple artists I talked to about them, their students do these at their studios, rather than the artist themselves.

Interesting project. Have you been able to try it on actual hardware yet? What’s the minimum RAM?

Absolutely agree! There are people that parenting is not a good fit, for various reasons. And it does a disservice to both the parent and the child.

In part, for sure. I was an uncle for a long time, which formed part of my hesitation. But there’s a different level of investment and connection if you are responsible for something 24/7. Like visiting someone’s house and seeing their dog do a trick, vs having your own dog and training it. There’s people who can articulate it better than me, but (not to sound sappy about it) the first time I held my firstborn my world changed.

Edit: I think another poster put it well that “it wasn’t about ‘me’ anymore”. Depending on your disposition, this could be great or it could be really bad. I’ve definitely changed for the better over the course of being a parent.

I was on the fence for a long time as well. It just looked like a lot of work. And not to sugar coat it, it _is_ a lot of work. But it’s also been so rewarding. You get to see someone experience things for the first time, like riding a bike or eating a tomato. Teaching them it’s ok to have feelings, helping them overcome their fears, watching them make friends. Giving them the advice I wished I had heard from someone I trusted growing up. And a million other things. And the hug and kiss at night with “I love you daddy” can’t be replicated.

Reminds me of a company I worked at that paid for redundant power grids. One time the power went out and… nothing. The boss angrily calls up the power company and they tell him “Oh yeah, it’s a manual transfer switch. Bob is already on his way.” I think it took 15 minutes.

This is fantastic! As one of those kids who spent the early 90s in QBasic, thank you!

> So was that why your models caused three real-world security incidents?

No, that was just marketing :)

If LLM training data is human-written, and LLM output mimics that input, how could you not have false positives?

“thip…thip…ERRNT ERRNT ERRNT”

Wouldn’t that require the AI agent coding the AI chatbot to know sandboxing is a requirement?

That’s exactly what an AI prompted to reply to AI accusations would say!

Some people think that the only ones downsized were the “dead weight”, so therefore, with them and their bureaucracy out of the way, the remaining people will be faster and better able to do their real work. From what I’ve seen, this is not the case. If anything, the opposite may have happened.

Unless the watermark is a giant “This is fake” diagonally across the center of the image, everything will get shared virally in the 3 second attention span of doomscrolling without a second look.

I finally found a brand+model of jeans that I liked. I don’t have to buy pants/trousers often, so of course the next time I went to buy some it had been discontinued by the manufacturer. Even the “this is the closest style to that one” online recommendations had been discontinued, leaving me back at square one.

What do you use as “ground truth”? The page says “independent sources”, and I’m sure there’s too many to list, but my question is how are they vetted as being truthful and how are two sources with opposite viewpoints reconciled?
