Hopefully a new governance structure will emerge and allow for a better path forward. As a layman who has only used AI to package a couple things on NixOS for personal use, I would…

Unless your target market is a small niche of hackers, then yeah the vast majority would pay $20. Just look at how many pay for music and video streaming services, when it's trivia…

Looks like they've both added a lot since then. If I select their worldwide species list in app, I get 38k for Flora and 85k for PlantNet. I just gave them a try for some common tr…

I've experienced that with trees over the last 5 years. I've been working on forest restoration on some land as a hobby and everywhere I travel I try to identify the trees I see. F…

Sounds like a good opportunity to update the rules on noise pollution then.

In Thailand? I guess it depends where you are. I've been in 20+ provinces and speak some Thai, but it's still so much easier using grab/bolt/lineman/muvmi and not having to explain…

The problem isn't missing app functionality that anyone can build. It's access to proprietary third party services that are too useful to go without. And they're not going to let y…

I'd love to do this, but sadly I don't see it happening unless my lifestyle significantly changed to the point where I wasn't frequently traveling to new countries. There are just …

> It might not be much of an exaggeration to say these two are worth ~$200 billion. It think the vast majority is what the decision to leave says about the overall sentiment at Goo…

I forgot about that.. I'm surprised China allowed them to release that. Surely it will only increase the likelihood and severity of western restrictions on Chinese open models. Unl…

I doubt any labs will be releasing weights for frontier image models. Why would they want to deal with the amount of bad press they'll get for unsavory porn? Look at what happened …

The use and meaning of words shift over time. Today, third world just means less developed.

If those people recording on their cell phones are going to coordinate and provide mass surveillance to the government, then yes, I would hope most people are against that.

Good. It's nice to finally see some mainstream support for privacy rights.

Why would the elites ever agree to that? It's already too easy for those in power to control popular opinion, and only getting easier, so you're not going to get mass protests or r…

Why not on e-ink devices too?

If only it were that simple. Anything important like banking apps will require attestation.

The newly announced pro version with a front light looks prerfect for me. Do you use it with a dictionary? I like the full 1 GB English wiktionary loaded in Aard2 on my Boox. It ha…

I think it depends. In developing countries, ecotourism even when poorly managed is better for conservation than uncontrolled fishing/farming.

There are many reasons not to want authoritarian governments tracking your every movement other than you having stolen or forged a passport.

Sure, I could buy a dedicated more efficient car for the rare days when there is zero risk of rain and I don't need to haul anything larger. After more than 1cm of rain, the last 5…

I think the more important reasons are to prevent the groceries from sliding around in the bed and to protect them from the sun and precipitation.

I'd much rather give my data to China because I don't live there, so there's not a whole lot they can do to me. The US, on the other hand, has a lot leverage over my life and freed…

First of all, that's already a solved problem for current frontier models. Give me a specific example if you don't believe me. Second of all, not being able to properly spell a wor…

I was recently traveling on a local bus near the Amazon and an indigenous family sitting in front of me were eating a local snack. When they finished, they opened the window and th…
