That's a good guess! Checked eBay and iCloud locked M2 MacBooks Air go for around $400.

Just FYI: manifest v3 extensions are already cross-browser. They are all based on the WebExtensions API. However, browsers have very specific constraints that require complex alter…

Oh I don't argue about art. Most of these decisions are driven by financial constraints, not the artistic vision. And this is not going to change. Christopher Nolan can afford extr…

Do they mention anywhere what DALL-E version is being used? I have a suspicion it's not DALL-E 3 but happy to be proven wrong.

Apparently Mozilla is working on that for over a year now (announced in Feb '22).

Ah cool. Yes, that makes sense! Would you allow people browse the list of existing communities and join them, or are individual communities invite only?

Sounds good. One problem that you will likely encounter in FF is that you can't open the native extension popup (the one that is attached to the action button) programmatically. Th…

Here is evidence: large crowds of extras have already been replaced by CGI. This is a list of 10 movies with the most number of extras: https://www.tasteofcinema.com/2017/10-movies…

I really like the UI: 1. using the new Chrome Sidebar API is a great choice! 2. selecting actions to show in the context menu is also a convenient customization idea Are you consid…

This is an interesting take. A couple of observations: - Small groups of people who know each other IRL are very sensitive to breakups. When a couple breaks up, it frequently split…

It's too early to say who is winning/will win, of course. But so far the UI and its accessibility have made a huge difference in how different gen AI models are being used. For exa…

This is quite an exaggeration. Integrating DALL-E into MS Paint has basically no similarities to the vast gen AI feature set announced by Adobe. - Firefly Vector model - Generated …

Personally I think that’s the best selling point of passkeys. Most non-tech people don’t use password managers and have to memorize passwords, reset frequently passwords they can’t…

Here is Google discussing how passkeys are easier and simpler to use than passwords: https://security.googleblog.com/2023/05/making-authenticatio... Here is 1Password discussing ho…

How does this address OP's concern? If you have a single device (e.g. an iPhone) and you store all your passkeys on it, then losing it means you lost all passkeys. Your post descri…

It is a bit disappointing. This video did not show anything more "extreme" than various Boston Dynamics videos from years ago. And to be even more pedantic, this is hardly parkour …

Looks like it slows down just a tiny bit (needs time to compute?) before making some of the jumps in this video. So not completely losing momentum. Wonder if this will look more fl…

My understanding is that such robots do exist and have a different application. For example, balancing on longer hind legs by lifting the rest of the body up, then making a jump ov…

Agreed! After blocking Twitter I either see nothing where an embed is supposed to be, or only see emojis rendered in the middle of an otherwise blank area.

What a wonderful experiment! My favorite type of posts on HN.

I always imagine large scale financial fraud as something requiring a great amount of financial expertise. Seeing this code snippet is surreal.

That's just moral defeatism. Fraud exists in many businesses and institutions. A healthier outlook on this is that we need to stop it whenever we can, not that we should give up be…

I typed this from memory, so probably not repeating LLMs word for word. If I change that prompt to "As an AI language model..." the detection works as expected. In a sense, a broad…

Even in the US there are enthusiasts who buy and restore super cars for cheap (relatively speaking). There are several crafty YT channels showing the process from start to finish.
