All sound is vibration, so everything is affected by sound at some point as the vibrations propagate through and physically move around materials. Humans can hear because the audib…

The reconnect thing is actually quite helpful for mobile use cases. Say the user switches the tab, closes their browser or loses network and then they return. Since SSE is stateles…

They reopened with formal understanding that there will be an executive order tomorrow to suspend the enforcement of the ban. That is a big deal and it's something that they can po…

The Biden administration signed the thing into law. Of course they need to comply. And people are acting as if somehow TikTok decided to self-ban and have now un-banned. No, it's o…

If I want to run what someone else has determined as "malware" on my computer, as far as I'm concerned, I should have the absolute right to do it. Same for spyware. Why? Because I …

> made them vote together across party lines Ha, is that uniparty vote supposed to be something meaningful? If the government had true concerns, they could 1) be aired to the publi…

Not talked about beyond heat is maintenance. When things fail, who are you going to send up to fix things? Is it never going to fail, or are they planning to throw away big compone…

Bluesky isn’t a centralized service, the developers cannot themselves comply with judicial orders (any of them).

They can get rid of apps and block websites that they want, which is basically what they’re doing right now.

Yes and appeal to whom? Himself, who’s clearly shown himself to be a partisan? Why even need an executive when your judiciary can basically unilaterally function as executive be a …

There is much more story that you’re either uninformed about or willfully ignoring. The correct move was to remove people from harms way for decisions they have no control over, he…

This is actually really cool. I can see the usages in textarea and inputs but also even in plain HTML documents for large code formatting. No need for exploding the DOM with tons o…

A simple equation to approximate it is `memory_in_gb = parameters_in_billions * (bits/8)` So at 32 bit full precision, 70 * (32 / 8) ~= 280GB fp16, 70 * (16 / 8) ~= 140GB 8 bit, 70…

Obviously because the world revolves around US politics. What else could there be to talk about beyond politics.

Had the same first thought (:

The production simplicity of having a standardized OS and being able to drop in a .exe and have it run everywhere without worrying about building for 1000 system combinations canno…

There's nothing special about Windows beyond the fact that you can run arbitrary executable files. The problem could just as easily have happened for Linux or iOS/Mac and in fact i…

People simply have no idea what they're talking about. It's just jumping on to the latest hype train. My first impression here was per the name that it was actually some sort of co…

What's the point of it then? If humans are not consuming it then there is no point to doing anything at all out there is it?

I'm not sure if it's intentional or not, but this seems to be barely discussed, and the page reads more like an slick advertisement. There is a paragraph expert about it and it's m…

The "National security" needs of the day trumps the 1st amendment. Only U.S. (and a certain other place which won't be named) propaganda is allowed.

I am thankful we have LLMs so we don't have to deal with SO. Ideally, as little as possible. SO can be a pretty toxic place filled with elitism and care for procedure over actually…

Cool stuff. It's kind of interesting because the time zones are several hours off, so I wonder how well it works at night. From the renders I see the quality doesn't seem that grea…

It's what enables you to even be here to hear OP. Somewhere along the line the magic got lost, in the name of higher level human problems, but it is quite literally one of humanity…

I'm not sure how much people actually read the link, but I'm talking about this "problem point" specifically relating to network congestion: > However, there’s a huge problem: the …
