"The earlier implementation could not be driven to zero of them, because boxing was load-bearing in its emitter"

I think there was a lot more brainpower invested in the media generation side of things. The noise-based diffusion technique is further developed. It had a discovery of applying a physics-based understanding of Brownian motion to guide it. Image generation has comparatively simple training process - this is an image with dog, and without dog (contrastive learning).

Might be worth to watch the diffusion based LLMs.

That's just https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unsharp_masking and has been around since decades.

After you clamped the stem, the preload job of the cap is done and it can be replaced.

Had to remember how ads looked like when Flash was popular. We had fullscreen ads that interacted with the content!

You mean people come to hate code reviews.

If you don't use those rules, you'll argue about something else in the code reviews. Likely something even more ambigous that wasn't explicitly written down for everyone as a baseline.

I am surprised by the rather bad output. It doesn't achieve qwen image 1 quality in composition or anatomical correctness. Tested on chat.qwen.ai

I am seeing third legs and glowing eyes. It's a Microsoft Lens level of quality and that one was pulled.

Contrary to that. The saying - Better to have a bad abstraction than none - was born from spaghetti code pain.

They really did their best comparing it with other tools here https://docs.deno.com/runtime/desktop/comparison/

Apple has some clever mechanics to protect user data. I had to work with App tracking stuff lately and their approach to keeping user details private with anonymized cohorts (SKAN, Differential Privacy) before reporting tracking events to third party platforms was surprisingly well thought out. There is value in having them in your loop if you care about privacy.

I guess you can still be first to Linkedin and get all of the fame.

Mechanical exoskeletons should amplify your strength, not atrophy it.

If the brain is like a muscle, it won't work.

Has anyone tried to breath space? :)

Do we really have no way to build this in a single programming language and base database?

IndexDB, Postgres, Javascript, Typescript, Clojure. Not bad, but not much more attractive than the usual technology zoo any startup seems to end up with.

Collaboration has structure. The structure is the result of "the activity to create and maintain a shared understanding of a problem in order to solve it" - which is a definition of collaboration. I don't think collaboration requires a hierarchy more than it requires a tool for groupwork.

They also support a large number of previous OS. If you hard reset your 2013 Mac, it'll download OSX Mountain Lion.

"Programmers are the ultimate detail managers. All the tiny little details that nobody else wants to deal with wind up in our laps." - Robert C. Martin

Let's see if AI makes PMs care for details.

How does it compare to https://github.com/penpot/penpot?

This is a actual prompt in the video: "What are the papers in the literature that are most relevant to this draft and that I should consider citing?"

They probably wanted: "... that I should read?" So that this is at least marketed to be more than a fake-paper generation tool.

My mistake, seems like I was refering to the Siri voice, which seems to be the default. It sounds good. It is selectable and to my surprise - even configurable in speed, pitch and volume - in the OS Accessibility settings -> System Voice -> Click on the (i) symbol. (macOS Tahoe)

macOS already has some great intrinsic TTS capability as the OS seems to include a naturally sounding voice. I recently built a similar tool to just run the "say" command as a background process. Had to wrap it in a Deno server. It works, but with Tahoe it's difficult to consistently configure using that one natural voice, and not the subpar voices downloadable in the settings. The good voice seems to be hidden somehow.

The 5000 loc index.html doesn't look too bad content wise, but I question if it's helpful to humans in its shape. I guess a proper project structure is just a prompt away though.

Collaboration is when all want to get to the same place and take unplanned turns to drive while the others are sleeping and a hitchhiker you picked up on the ride drives you over the finishing line.

And it's beautiful when that happens.

Collaboration is the activity of a group of people to create and maintain a shared understanding of a problem in order to solve it.

The author addresses issues that I would not relate to the concept of collaboration as a specific type of groupwork.

Boston Dynamics posted a youtube video on gripper (hand) design yesterday. They argue for two fingers and a thumb. I don't believe this product.

The first step towards this is a UN resolution.

It's more cognitive load to write a validation for every parameter because you can't rely on your fellow dev knowing it's not good to pass a string where you want a boolean.

Humans reason with objects much better because that's how the real business world works.

Have you recently missed the implementation of the hover state hidden in the four levels of AI-generated UI specification noise?

I did and remembered the almost forgotten teachings of Chet Rong. Even though the videos have shaped engineering culture early on in my career, Atlassian does not seem to be proud of them any longer.

Can we still laugh about it?
