At first I thought, they’re releasing this news now to drown out the Concord news, but 30 year anniversary, maybe they did have this planned a little longer. 🙃

It’s a slang word to mean the outfit or accessories. I believe, it started out regionally, but it’s been popular with the current teenager generation.

It annoys me in particular, because AI builds on top of open-source pretty much in every aspect. If they’re just going to use this money to buy LLM licenses, that money will not go to the people doing most of the work.

This is bad.

Are those which generate images also Large Language Models? I have been wondering what the technical term for them is…

Ah, thanks, I missed that.

Crunch is a common practice, even though data shows it to lower total productivity. (See, for example: https://cs.stanford.edu/people/eroberts/cs181/projects/crunchmode/econ-crunch-mode.html )

So, it might lead to a rise in productivity, at least.

Man, even if I somewhat understand Java as a choice, because it’s basically the lowest common denominator for lots of devs, it is also that. It’s not very fun to code in Java.
I’ve only looked into Spring Boot shortly, but that also looked like the antithesis of fun to me. Tons of boilerplate, heavy-handed processes, a million best practices and documentation to read before you know how to correctly use it.

I mean, if they want to do this, then more power to them. But fun is still important for projects that people do in their freetime…

Is it maybe that they’re using the Lemmy frontend, but Sublinks for the backend? But yeah, still a bit weird…

I’m assuming, this is what OP is using: https://docs.linuxserver.io/images/docker-firefox/

I’m not a lawyer, I could imagine that a copyright claim for a specific app design is viable.
But in this case, it might also just be a case of avoiding bad press and bad blood with Apple.

FUTO’s The Open Source Definition

Open source just means access to the source code. […]

What is wrong with this company? How do you have the thought and then follow all the way through with it, that you need an own definition of a commonly used word? That’s just being obtuse and annoying.

Man, during my apprenticeship, I spent a month in the offensive security department, meaning white-hat hackers. My most memorable experience there was us scrolling through a WireShark log of a server (which a user had conveniently placed into a web-hosted folder, so that our automated scanners could pick up on it).

Then we found an unencrypted FTP connection in there, which meant the password got logged in plain text and then we tried the same password for SSH. In roundabout 10 minutes, we had root access. On a real-world system.

And yeah, watching the guy in the video scroll through those Recall logs, that felt eerily similar. Like you just need the right Ctrl+F, the right screenshot or any clue that they’re using some insecure technology to exploit. If you can extract those logs, it’s likely just a matter of time until you find something.

That NSA agent is going to have a grand old time, listening to poop concertos.

That has definitely been my strategy, yeah. It’s just such a wild discrepancy to the handful of dollars you spend on a perfectly serviceable hand-operated brush.

Fucking hell, if I spent $230 on a goddamn toothbrush, I’d expect that thing to last me for a lifetime.

I’m definitely willing to believe that they’ve got monorail-like flanges. That would probably help with stabilizing. But where the hell are you able to see a picture of the wheels? There’s a few angles in the video which quickly show the wheels, but I can’t actually see much anyways. 🫠

Yeah, that’s quite possible, that they offer it for marketing. Maybe also to give municipalities an option to try out the system for a few months and see, if it attracts much interest. If it doesn’t, you can just pack up the pods and cranes, and market it to the next city.

I was mainly confused how off-handedly this gets mentioned in the article, as if that was clearly the logical method for moving a vehicle from one place to another…

I’m not saying that it’s hugely expensive. I’m just saying that a Y-shaped rail with a switch should be significantly cheaper.

Particularly, moving parts are a pain for maintenance. These kind of systems, you want to operate for 20+ years and the less bearings there are to oil, the better.
