I mean, if we’re talking Hamilton it’s even further, being pretty clearly a commentary on the whole “founding fathers freeing everyone while most of them owning human beings they refused freedom to” thing.

How is Xorg a “direct competitor” to Microsoft? Especially Microsoft’s trademark to X in the gaming market where they own the Xbox and Xorg doesn’t participate at all?

Trademarks protect consumers by preventing fraud and misleading naming. It makes perfect sense that Microsoft owns X in the given market space due to the enormous prevalence of Xbox. Their first console was literally X-shaped and it would be bad for consumers for anyone to be able to make the “X-station” or “X-cube” or some such.

Except premium pays the people that make the content. ReVanced is, regardless of if you hate big tech, blatantly stealing the work of the skilled artists you enjoy.

Everytime Firefox updates I have to restart the entire browser or it won’t let me open a new tab. This has been going on for years. As a dev, I can’t dynamically edit source during runtime ever since the Quantum update. It’s noticeably slower these days, which is especialy bad on mobile/laptops due to battery life. If you’re on Windows, you don’t get video super sampling (NVIDIA) or HDR videos.

I wouldn’t call it a buggy mess that crashes frequently, but it’s certainly constantly getting on my nerves.

It’s mid-way through 2023, so 3.5 years, right? That seems a little generous, but reasonable. Products for the next year are likely already designed and finished. Then it’ll take time for companies to redesign their devices now that they have to totally change how their chassis are designed, how they achieve IPS resistances, to source the new part, etc.

Yeah… they still haven’t added back live editing of JS. Their new profiler doesn’t provide framerate graphs anymore. Nothing like Lighthouse on offer. Gotta keep a Chrome-based browser around for any non-trivial frontend work.

They’re just build flags or compiler versions being different, no need to be melodramatic.

It would quickly need to be an allow list. It’s basically free to spool up an instance with Docker, it’d make those randomly named Chinese companies on Amazon look slim.

For instance: it could help remote villages or third world countries. But Starlink costs a pretty penny in western money those places lack. Otherwise they would already have traditional infrastructure.

I use it all day at my job now. Ironically, on a specialization more likely to overfit.

It may be a statistical model, but ultimately nothing prevents that model from overfitting, i.e. memoizing its training data.

This seems to imply that not only did entire books accidentally get downloaded, slip past the automated copyright checker, but that it happened so often that the AI saw the same so many times it overwhelmed other content and baked, without error and at great opportunity cost, an entire book into it. And that it was rewarded for doing so.
