    I am not anti-AI, but if I am going to use AI I far prefer to have control over how I engage with it. Having a piece of hardware to focused on Google's own AI flavor being built in…

    I appreciate the idea, but as others have mentioned it seems like for something like this to be useful it really needs to be well thought out and tolerant to extreme spikes in traf…

    There are a lot of similarities. You must either have a great memory for fonts, or eat a lot of butter alternative spread, either way good eye!

    I really don't know why I struggle so much with this stuff. I believe these models / agents / whatever write code that is often at least as good as the code I write, and they are s…

    I came here to ask if there is some way of fixing this. I'm guessing not. Youtube lately seems particularly bad in terms of showing lots of "shorts" all over when I have zero inter…

    I don't see how this is an issue. To me, this does seem at least confusing, but possibly dangerous. If you have internal auth testing domains at the same place as user generated co…

    I relate to this. Also, I am not the best person in the world, but recently this hit the point where I decided because of these very same thoughts + nudging from my much better par…

    Same. Replacing all of my light switches with an app I have to use anytime I want to turn the lights on or off is indeed a huge step backwards IMHO. Replacing all of the light swit…

    I agree on all points. The project was well made, but my read on it was that they wanted to be shown something interesting. Even if it wasn't as well made of polished, I got the im…

    Thanks for the link, but yeah as the other poster mentioned, this is for a dev board. I'd be interested in buying the module (which is somewhere between the bare IC and the dev boa…

    Thanks for taking the time to explain! So your original comment / request was regarding USB specifically then? I ask because I'd have guessed (possibly incorrectly!) that implement…

    Any guesses as to when a hobbyist might be able to buy the module without the dev board? Their aliexpress store didn't have them as far as I can tell, I assume they are prioritizin…

    Any chance you could explain this to somebody who is just learning about HID and has run this example: https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/tree/master/examples/pe... ? "non-boot p…

    A bit similar for me, I grew up in the Midwest and spent a lot of time wandering around CompUSA and Circuit City / Best Buy when I was a kid. When I was old enough and had some rea…

    I completely agree. I find magic links much more of a hassle than a password.

    Can you explain a bit more about what "serverless GPUs" are exactly? Is there a specific cloud provider you're thinking of, e.g. is there a GPU product with AWS? Google gives me Sa…

    I don't believe he misread. I believe he felt like the reply to the other users post was needlessly curt or snarky, which I'd agree with.

    Can somebody help me understand as a casual Elasticsearch (and honestly, more OpenSearch) user how so much data inside of Elasticsearch ends up not becoming the "database"? I've al…

    This is a serious annoyance for me all day long, across the internet. Have you found most sites respect your preferred languages list?
