Tangentially related, I have recently been using my S10+ as a makeshift media server running Jellyfin in Termux. The main problem I had was that it is unsafe to keep a device perpetually charging and my first thought was to create a Routine to turn on the charger when the battery is above a certain threshold and off when it is below. This post gives me an alternative idea to try.

This was my impression after reading the article too. I have no doubt that the team at Filevine attempted to secure their systems and have probably thwarted other attackers, but got their foot stuck in what is an unsophisticated attack. It only takes one chain vulnerability to bring down the site.

Security reminds me of the Anna Karenina principle: All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.

It's incredible how 50 year-old advice from The Mythical Man-Month are still not being heed. Throw in a knee-jerk solution of "daily call" (sound familiar?) for those involved while they are wading knee-deep through work and you have a perfect storm of terrible working conditions. My money is Google, who in my opinion have not only caught up, but surpassed OpenAI with their latest iteration of their AI offerings.

From the context, what I gather was meant by the idea of "multiple Indias" was the socioeconomic status of different demographics in India and their app usage. The presence of specific apps gives a tell to which demographic they belong to.

In other words, the richest demographic used certain apps and was equated to folks in Mexico, followed by the less rich equated to folks in Indonesia and the poor to Sub-Saharan Africa.

This is so cool and actually was something I was thinking of building for a while! Would love a write-up of how the file formats was reverse engineered.

Love it, this seems very similar to https://www.actsofgord.com/

I've been struggling to find a workflow that can easily extract knowledge and insights from audio content on the web and sync it with note-taking systems such as Notion, Readwise or Obsidian, so I decided to create a system that transcribes the audio, summarizes it and shares it with other applications.

Right now we are only targetting podcasts to Notion as the vertical slice for the MVP, but in the future we're looking to support "connectors" that can take in other forms of content such as audiobooks, videos, etc. and share it to other popular note-taking forms.

It's been an exciting journey so far and we're looking to launch soon!

Amazing article! In case the author sees this, it'd be great if the author can deep dive into how he "found the right place" in finding the correct breakpoint to produce the decrypted message. It seems to me that if you're able to do this there's a lot of interesting things one could do.

Hey there, I was confused at this exact question too. This link might help, written by a contributor to llama.cpp: https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/pull/1684

TLDR: Lower quantization means higher perplexity (i.e. how 'confused' the model is when seeing new information). It's a matter of testing it out and choosing a model that fits your available memory. The higher the quantization number, the better (generally).

Cool! He seems like a powerhouse in this space - thank you for the answer

Hey I'm fairly new to the who's who in the PostgreSQL world, would you mind telling why Heikki might be able to pull this off?

Congrats to the Infisical Team! I was a first-time open source contributor thanks to this project and definitely could not have done that without the patience and guidance from the team.

Keep up the great work!

WOW this site takes me back, hours upon hours of reading Computer Stupidities. Thanks for sharing.

Developer Tea has been my go to wind down podcast after a long day. Thank you!

I really enjoy listening to Coding Blocks, especially when they're discussing popular software engineering books (DDD, Devops Handbook, etc.) which give a great overview of what the core concepts of the book are along with practical applications. They don't take themselves too seriously what with having dad joke sections but still manage to keep things informational and current. They can be pretty long so I recommend breaking listening sessions following their survey sections.

Was pleasantly surprised to learn that the author of this blog post was none other than the CTO of Stripe! Glad to see a CTO who's still hands-on and even willingly blogs about making so-called 'beginner' mistakes with the float/integer behaviour in Rust. Big props.

Would love to see this too!

Love this idea. I hail from a South East Asian country and can definitely see something similar being popular in my country.

A question I have on the logistics, how do you govern the delivery associates and do you partner with any local logistic companies to provide delivery associates?

Again, this is a great idea and good luck to you and your team!

Do you mind sharing some examples of these Google Docs and what their contents are? My current workplace seems to be running on the mantra of "do first, document later... make that never" and I'm trying to change it by stressting high-quality documentations and clearly documented requirements.

I worked at Accenture for two and a half years up until the start of this year in an Asian country.

While I've met some incredible, brilliant people working in the firm who are close friends to this day, there's always a cult-like mindset prevalent in people in the consulting industry that makes it different from working anywhere else. The stories of fancy dinners, corporate events, massive benefits are all true, to a certain extent.

Working primarily with an energy company that is deeply entrenched in older technologies and ways of working, I believe the reason consulting companies are portrayed as the anti-thesis of technological advancement is simply because buy-in from senior management from companies like the one I've worked for is difficult. These folks (including their CTO/CIO) are so far away from the working-level and tech that consultants resort to cheap tricks like catchy barely-sensical-jargon/Ivy League graduate profiles/borderline lies to help them land deals.

Similar to this, upon reading the often recommended book Designing Data Intensive Application, I realize that the concept of a system and the optimization of one is simply a combination of read/writes, storage, I/O, bottlenecks. It's the layers upon layers of work that's been done on it that makes it work the way it does now.

I just started on my journey to create my first game with PICO-8. Fred is an absolute genius and is unmissable if you frequent the BBS (Bulletin Board system, PICO-8's official forum)

Not the original poster, but a mirror in the context of websites usually means a backup copy of a piece of content that is accessible from another source.

Seconding this! It'd be great if you could include the extraction process from the beginning too for those of us who are unfamiliar.

We actually have a Sharepoint page but somehow have been uploading the documents according to their versioning since the beginning of the project.

Any idea how to get coworkers on board with using the version tracking feature?
