This reminds me of those videos where the bar staff try blind pouring a shot, and it's wild how good some people are. Would love to see a similar competition, re: can the most seni…

I'm imagining a spectrum between "has to be slow" and "needlessly slow", with a middle slider for that one razor where things take as much time as you give them. Intentionality is …

After reading this, I am now of the belief that software is, actually, a good thing. And that programming can be enjoyable. Seriously, this does such a good job of capturing the fe…

What is the benefit of this over something like Pkl[0]? Pkl compiles down to JSON, YAML, etc., but the language itself is user-friendly. This way you get best of both worlds: reada…

The first image on the marketing page is an AI-generated picture of a person staring back. At best it's unsettling, and at worst it makes me wonder how authentic of a user experien…

This looks a lot like Swift. To me, that's a good thing :)

According to the article/filing, she wasn't given specific reasons for the demotion, treated discriminatorily, and given a PiP that was unattainably difficult. One would assume tha…

I like the alternative this implies of dreaming in 2D :p What’s your use case? I’d imagine the macOS display extending is wildly cool.

I think it more targets the “apple enthusiast”, or at least the “tech enthusiast”, who is used to paying a $$$ premium (at the cost of polish) to be the First at a new thing. Every…

These models aren't actually doing any musical comparison -- they are trained on audio, and from audio, piece apart with a "note" and a "melody" and an "instrument" are from the la…
