    Openrouter has video generation also. They do have Seedance which afaik routes via something called ‚atlas cloud’, but it did work.

    Did they literally just leave the water supply plant management software out available on the open internet? Hard to even call this a hack!

    Ha, for a brief moment I thought VM=virtual machine and not voice mail and was scratching my head how you set that up and what the VM is doing with the call

    At Facebook (i left >4 years ago) we used Phabricator where shipping stacked changes like this was table stakes. I still miss it. Some few random points, not really organized, i'm …

    It's been >4 years since I've been out of Facebook and now have to use Github, and to this day I miss phabricator and landing stacked changes. When I first left and had to work wit…

    How did you actually end up doing it, like the full pipeline ? For example what app did you use to scan your apartment and orocesss it into a 3d model (which kind?) and then how do…

    True, I didn’t do those in detail. I vaguely looked at the output and thought “let’s see if that works at all”. I do such more careful planning and AI handholding at work where it’…

    Now after reading the OPs responses and how defensive they are of some high quality constructive criticism, I don’t even want to go back and play more with the visualization.

    Similarly for me. I have a recent example too. I run a bunch of eps32 devices at home, using esphome. Pre-AI I wrote all the yaml myself and understood what’s happening and didn’t …

    This is quite informative and useful as I live in NYC. I think in the video he mentioned that the city is collecting all that data on what’s underground to collect all in a databas…

    I live in nyc, when I first heard of the eruv couldn’t believe they would come up with such elaborate hacks just to ‘technically’ still be following their religious laws! Now if I …

    On my personal computers I keep track of this and ensure nothing goes write-crazy. On my work laptop though (M3 Pro, 1TB), I’m at ~70% health. Iirc the lifetime writes are at >700T…

    Ah damn I just bought their new Mission One a few weeks ago (upgrading from a Hero 10). Already quite angry though since it seems the batteries are basically the same shape for bot…

    Product looks cool, not sure what I’ll use it for but did just purchase it on crowdsupply :) How did you settle on that frequency range btw? It’s 4.9 - 6ghz, so it will visualize t…

    I like the app ‘Lingon X’ I think is the name, to help with this. It’s a viewer/editor for all the startup and recurrent background tasks on your Mac. But also it has a feature to …

    Yeah it sucks :( Almost exactly a year ago, I got a brand new 15.36TB Kioxia CD-6R (u.3 pcie4x4 drive) for $1450+tax from serverpartdeals.com - that same drive is now listed for ~$…
