To be fair, it’s a fair assessment. Superhero movies like that are a defining feature of the last two decades, with titles and plots worsening at an exponential rate. Not that prio…

But this is for apps outside the Play store, so the DSA isn’t at play here insofar as Google needs to be concerned. I don’t think there’s any solid decision on whether third-party …

But this isn't a problem on one system, it's potentially a problem in any system with Copilot enabled. It's akin to a vulnerability in a software library (which often means a separ…

CVEs aren’t just for common dependencies. The “Common” part of the name is about having standardized reporting that over time helps reveal common issues occurring across multiple C…

I’ve lived on both sides of this in different areas of the US. Overall I’d say there’s a lot of places that have what you’ve described, but there are many that don’t, even in more …

Lambda has 1mil free requests per month, so there’s a chance it would be free depending on your usage. But still, it’s not straightforward at all, so I get it. Perhaps requiring su…

I also don’t know for certain, but I’d assume they only cache AI responses at an (at most) regional level, and only for a fairly short timeframe depending on the kind of site. They…

In the U.S. at least (obviously not the same everywhere), fair use doesn’t necessarily require your work to be transformative. It’s one of several aspects that gets considered, alb…

WebScript is trademarked by Apple [1], but not sure how enforceable it is at this point. [1]: https://www.apple.com/legal/intellectual-property/trademark/...

Thanks, good to know. Their page on BigQuery is very misleading.

I took their meaning to be that we should keep looking into the whole matter since, either way, there might be more evidence to find. I don’t think they were dismissing this theory…

They used the official MIT-licensed dataset published by Y Combinator on BigQuery, so it’s not necessarily fair to blame OP here.

Apple's Critical Alerts aren't a broadcast system though. It's just an API to bypass the mute switch and DnD, but users have to go into settings to enable it on a per-app basis. Th…

I have a negative perception of both LinkedIn and OKCupid, and of matchmaking services in general. The strength of these platforms is the same as their weakness: they aim to elimin…

Articles get removed from Apple's documentation archive seemingly randomly. However, on a good note, there are backups of the entire ADC Leopard Reference Library (available at sev…

Apple's documentation used to be quite good—many useful guides, thousands of technical notes, development books quarterly—it's really a shame that they've turned their back on that…

Even if they did, I’d assume the association of “full” and this correct representation would benefit other areas of the model. I.e., there could (/should?) be general improvement f…

Maybe 21% of astronauts have used select components made with react-select. That’s approaching moon territory!

On one hand, I get the business reasons for not using E2E by default (it’d make data recovery more difficult for probably the vast majority of their users, which would be a custome…

On Apple devices at least, this is a feature of Universal Links, which are generally more secure than deeplinks for various reasons [1]. Not sure you can disable it completely, but…

I get most of my “old” tech by volunteering community computer refurbishing places. Good way to meet people and stock up on tech supplies at the same time!

Hard to say. As a hobbyist with access to several OSes and hardware platforms, I appreciate the differences between each and enjoy the process of finding the right tool for the job…

ImageAnalyzer is Swift-only and has no corresponding Objective-C method, so it's not available in PyObJC. I can look into bridging it at some point.

I'll throw my solution into the mix: https://skaplanofficial.github.io/PyXA/tutorial/images.html#... PyXA uses the Vision framework to extract text from one or more images at a tim…
