They also claimed to have “quantum” phased radar. Until we see it in Janes or other OSINT it isn’t credible.

It was rhetorical.

Unfortunately the problem lies with the foundation. The one thing they made worth a damn in the past decade was Rust, and they promptly fired the whole Rust team. Servo is maintained by the Linux foundation now ffs. What does the foundation do besides zombie walk and eat Googles money?

Funny how the EU council considers iOS to be a big problem but not Microsoft’s behavior around Edge. Both need to be corrected, but only one has seen any action - and it ain’t Microsoft.

Over the past five years infosec has turned into a shitshow of showboating. Every exploit has to have a logo and catchy name. Attacks are widely hyped up despite the conditions for usage being extremely difficult or outright stupid. If you are assigning blanket permissions to a group that shouldn’t have it that is your fault. Obstructing stupidity is not in the scope of the container engine.

Free themes are available on their gohugo repo and there a plenty of paid ones. I enjoy the live reloading and ability to change it all easily with text files.

I used to use Ghost. Mostly on Hugo these days.

To add to the list of resources:

Todaku Books offer leveled difficulty, so even if you are starting out with Japanese there is something for you to read. The books are Creative Commons licensed, so don’t pay for them if you don’t want to.

Their CEO is the biggest symptom of their problem. She demands a sky high compensation despite her poor leadership. The company has been in a spiraling decline for the past decade now. Instead of focusing on bringing a great user experience, they alienated their most staunch users with things like Pocket and allowed PWAs and Electron to eat their lunch.

Fam if I walk into a cafe and I’m about to order and there is a bathroom that costs money I am going to leave. I get why they are doing this (hint it isn’t just the money), but I’ll be fucked if I’m going to tip them and pay to take a piss too.

Additionally, the claimed infringement relates to the fact that it’s reflective pulse oximetry using three or more sensors. Your Garmin and old Apple watch aren’t infringing because they use two sensors. I think the patent in its current state should not have been granted. It would be like patenting the placement of three or more CPU sockets on motherboards that fit in a certain rack size.

Maybe they shouldn’t be targeting journalists then?

I warned you lol. Can’t talk about it without someone putting words in your mouth. Trolls, malingerers, and plain old people getting mad.

Thanks for the info. I see why they did it then. Defensive copyright is fine for a good cause.

Hot take but I’m not a fan of the modified pride flag. First, it’s copyrighted. Second is that adding special interests defeats the purpose of making the flag all-inclusive. I get that there is a desire to recognize marginalized groups, but that was the purpose of the rainbow flag to being with. Unfortunately, even attempting discourse on the topic gets you accused of things. Fly what you feel best represents you though. If more people trend toward the modified pride flag then that’s what represents them and what they want.

Edit: see the reply below, the copyright situation is different than I understood.

They won’t. Even back in the Steve days, they paid special attention to the Japanese market. The OG Macs were some of the first computers to have well-rendered fonts for CJK. Knowing Japanese culture, they will either do nothing with this new sideloading capability or they will run with it and an ecosystem will explode of alt app markets. I’m leaning toward the former.

They thought they were going to sell it to the US Army as a combat HID but they were far too frail and gave people motion sickness. Additionally, to develop for it you needed to use their Windows-only dev tooling. Any serendipitous killer app was not going to happen. The product was DOA.

Gotta give them credit for selling it lol. It’s pretty much a given the next phone is going to shrink it, then eventually they will eliminate it altogether. No one seriously wants a hole punched display.

At my company we have already used it to great length. We had a backlog on several thousand support tickets we wanted categorized. GPT-4 did it in about 8 hours and with over 80% accuracy, at a fraction of the cost (and higher quality) it would have taken to get humans to do it.

We’re rolling out a chat bot too using it, with a local model as backup, to reply to leads when our clients are busy. So far they love it.

We’re making our money back despite the costs, and we’re able to spend that money paying people to not do busy work.

Maybe in the EU, but I would have little hope for the US market. The US has been astonishingly slow to take adverse action against companies within their own borders for the past 25 years. Believe me, I hope Apple and Google get what is coming to them, but I won’t hold my breath.
