I am living in Suadiye in İstanbul.

Google's "Manifest V2" Chrome extension phaseout next month is expected to impact the original uBlock Origin extension, which still uses the V2 framework and has 37 million users (www.theregister.com)

The new MV3 architecture reflects Google's avowed desire to make browser extensions more performant, private, and secure. But the internet giant's attempt to do so has been bitterly contested by makers of privacy-protecting and content-blocking extensions, who have argued that the Chocolate Factory's new software architecture...

Expect a bump in Firefox users.

I bet it looks the same for Twitter/Facebook/Instagram, except replacing China with US.

istanbullu ,

Refunds cost Spotify money. Open Sourcing is free. This is an epic level of dumb.

istanbullu ,

my money is on Spotify violating licensed open-source code in Car Thing, which would be revealed if they open-sourced their code.

These are statistical models, meaning that you'll get a different answer each time, also different answers based on context.

istanbullu ,

even at 0 temperature the model will not be deterministic, because it depends on the seed used as well as things like numerical noise.

LLMs are prompted with a seed. If you change the seed you get a different answer.

Why do people still use VMware? It's not 2012 anymore.

istanbullu ,

brave search is pretty good: https://search.brave.com/

istanbullu ,

Too bad ASML is not allowed to sell to China anymore and the Chinese are making their own machines :)

Already happening.

istanbullu ,

I'm writing this message from a laptop with 10nm chip. It works fine. nanometers aren't everything. Most of the time they are just marketing.

istanbullu ,

does it offend you when people have opinions different than yours?

istanbullu ,

in my experience people who accuse others of bigotry are often bigots themselves.

istanbullu ,

You can do a lot with a working 5nm process. This will hurt Samsung and TSMC (and by extention Qualcomm and Intel) a lot. The market isn't just the most cutting edge stuff.

istanbullu ,

They were already doing this before AI. Using windows is a bad idea.

istanbullu ,

Why do leaf blowers exist in the first place?

istanbullu ,

Deviant is probably having the best time of its existance thanks to generative models.

istanbullu ,

The same way people using shovels can't keep up with an excavator.

Technology changes the world. This is nothing new.

istanbullu ,

The coolest AI work these days is open source, and developed by enthusiastic communities across the world.

istanbullu ,

If this happens to you, then you only have yourself to blame. Do not use evil corps.

istanbullu ,

return to office was basically a layoff in disguise.

istanbullu ,

Every negative thing about Tiktok is also true about Instagram and Twitter.

istanbullu ,

So is Instagram

istanbullu ,

They don't need to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CLOUD_Act

istanbullu , (edited )

It's not a democracy to me.

istanbullu ,

I'm not an American. By your logic, let's ban all American social media.

istanbullu ,

Facebook complies with the Cloud Act.

istanbullu ,

They are doing everything they can so you download their app.

istanbullu ,

fairly accurate and on point tbh

istanbullu ,

You can't call something Full Self Driving or Autopilot and then blame the driver. If you want to blame the driver then call it drive asist.

The US government is a spoiled child that is throwing a temper tantrum over the success of others.

Tesla’s in its flop era (www.theverge.com)

When Tesla releases its first quarter earnings this afternoon, the company’s CEO Elon Musk will field the usual questions about new products, new factories, and progress toward its futuristic vision of self-driving cars and robot workers. But Musk will also face increasingly urgent questions about its current state of affairs...

istanbullu ,

Tesla's biggest market is China, not America. Elon's antics are not the cause of this drop. Selling Teslas in China getting harder due to American policies against China. How many Teslas do you think they will let Elon sell if the US bans Tiktok?

istanbullu ,

Imagine paying for this crap.

istanbullu ,

You don't get to blame AI for this. Reddit was already overrun by corporate and US gov trolls long before AI.

istanbullu ,

Large chunks of reddit read like US state dep press releases.

istanbullu ,

Must be hard on the idiots who paid full price.

istanbullu ,

If the original Deus Ex came out today, it would get lynced and cancelled in an instant. It's too anti-establishment for todays mood.

istanbullu ,

I have a orangepi at home with a 2tb usb disk. I made it reachable via wireguard, and works very well as a samba server. No need to open any ports.

istanbullu ,

I also need to plug in the ethernet cable 🤣 I assumed this was a given.

istanbullu ,

You need to have one member in the vpn that has a public ip address.

Also my internet provider at home gives ip6 addresses that are public.

istanbullu ,

I don't understand why people act suprised about this. These models mimic the data they are trained on. Of course they behave in this way.

If you train a language model on Twitter data, then you will get a model that sounds like a Twitter user.

Apple Removes WhatsApp, Threads, Telegram, and Signal from China App Store, says it complied with orders from the Chinese government (arstechnica.com)

Apple said it complied with orders from the Chinese government to remove the Meta-owned WhatsApp and Threads from its App Store in China. Apple also removed Telegram and Signal from China....

istanbullu ,

If the US bans Tiktok, expect China to retalliate against Apple. China is Apple's most important market.

istanbullu ,

You can at least modify Android to get rid of crap. You can't do that with Apple.

istanbullu ,

Andoid is the priority for everyone with a brain :) Apple's walled gardens are harmful for everyone who is not apple.

istanbullu ,

I don't buy into this "AI is dangerous" hype. Humans are dangerous.

    Isn't this true for all Windows versions?

    It seems like a waste of battery
