    Specifying units seems to be unreliable; I tried adding a description to the set_thermostat temperature: "temperature": { "type": "number", "description": "degrees Fahrenheit" }, S…

    Considering it as a classification problem, you could use a representative set of example queries, feed them to this model, then ask a "smart" language model to assess each query +…

    The main thing that helps with lead breakage is a mechanical pencil with a sliding nose cone/tip. Even finer lead becomes fairly reliable as long as it is protected against sideway…

    Additionally, the proposal of button actions is for the opposite purpose, when you want to avoid sending the form data when the button is pressed.

    The link to Architectural Decision Records is empty, but they're present in the repo to look at[0]. Curiously the decision with the most deciders is the implementation of JavaScrip…

    Zoom's filter applies before Color Filters, so a workaround is to toggle on zoom, set it to greyscale, then use the 3 finger gesture to zoom out to 100%.

    From the comparison image it looks like the goal is functional compatibility, not render compatibility. The table borders change and the layout changes.

    There are countries that require published material to be submitted to a national archive[0]. A similar system could be done for software source code and made public on expiry. [0]…

    The closest thing would be our showcase poster[0], at some point I might write about the thought/development process (both for my sake and whoever picks up the project in the futur…

    This is neat. This group’s approach of treating the devices as many weaker servers (basically a raspberry pi cluster) sounds like the most realistic way to reuse phone hardware at …

    Golang has the golang.org/x packages, which avoids too much stdlib bloat while still providing the niceties of “pre-vetted” packages that don’t pull in a massive dependency tree.

    This post has managed to “confuse” Google about the reverse question as well (“who named teresa t whale”): The humpback whale known as "Teresa T" was named by Simon Willison in Sep…

    There’s a relatively obvious constraint to check here: compositing the layers back together should produce a (near) identical image. Would it not be preferable to throw an error if…

    Interesting that it’s paying to remove features. Seems reasonable considering it’s paying to get an officially supported build, and if you’d rather not there’s probably a fork doin…

    Relatedly, scrolling time pickers are also a toss up on mobile. Sometimes a single swipe on the minutes gets you from 12:00pm to 11:50am, sometimes it doesn’t. I wish the analog cl…
