There is a lot of truth here, but it clearly isn't a welcome one. From my own perspective I can look back on decades of software I've written (some including code generation far be…

Fewer people means fewer cars, and I’m confident the auto company leaders know this very well. But what to do? Don’t build factory capacity and manifest decline? Not likely. They’r…

As far as I can tell, many “regular” people do care and alter buying decisions based on privacy concerns. They use words like “creepy” instead of technical ones, but the underlying…

There is a use case for visualizing property development, maybe.

Seems like the right choice to me. Introducing a "reality grounded" image generation feature without very good moderation seems like an obvious miss, and moderation is a tall ask i…

That's the article title, verbatim but the story here isn't about Iran, or Nuclear power -- it's about under moderation of the AI image generation feature added to Google Maps. It'…

DNS is a easy to implement and run. That's what I found when I started looking into it. The protocol is very simple, request/response, and the data light and flat (in the context o…

I had hoped they’d go with CoAP for the better overall fit with agent systems (natively async, con/non, Observe), but stateless is enough of a win I can’t complain.

HTTP? It would be a more interesting thought experiment with CoAP. And, is it really “modern” if it still uses a model (essentially) requiring stateful compute like JMAP?

API Gateway direct integration to Step Functions. Unlike Lambda, there is not automatic transform for requests so I just wrote one and copy/paste it to each method integration (via…

Likewise, I started using HTMX with AWS Step Functions as the backend and it’s been difficult but also a joy. Sfn these days makes for a weird and wild text templating engine. I’ve…

Not the email, the link in it is blocked by ad blockers. You might want to check the number of emails sent versus the number confirmed.

Your email confirmation link’s domain is in common adblock lists.

Good, they used UDP for a one off request /response (maybe) exchange. Bad, they included precise location information. I can see how rough location information is helpful for suppo…

No prescription is required, but as the other comments say, you’re unlikely to learn anything significant. Blood sugar in non-diabetics is boring, rarely moving in any significant …

Have you studied control systems? Adding a second storage mechanism with different dynamics changes control, and may complicate it. Those muscles may increase hypoglycemic events a…

I try to be open minded about research choices because I have no special knowledge of what will or won’t be important. Left-field discoveries have made profound and positive impact…

I know the guidelines make this a faux pas but I’m just here to say that was a great read. Very informative, well structured and compelling story of how we have networks and how th…

Fundamentally aren’t they concluding that tasks assigned to software developers (human or otherwise) are often incomplete, self contradictory or worse? This is the world in which t…

People have been people since there have been people.

What companies can expand if the income of consumers is shrinking. This is the scary bit to me — AI crashes and takes the economy with it, or; AI succeeds as promised and people go…
