This is exactly it, they're going to feed all this data into a model to try and get an AI to be able to perform operations in the OS like a human would.

Which on the surface of it sounds reasonable, but only if they actually paid people to generate that data for them. And this isn't even touching the privacy aspects of a record of everything you do being generated and stored in plaintext.

Majority of people believe the Moon landing was real. Conspiracy Georg, who smokes 100 packs a day was an outlier and should not have been counted.

I believe Calibre has the ability to send books via the Kindle email address to get them on your device that way.

Oh interesting, I never knew about that side of Kagi. The fact the company is focused so hard on AI is a red flag. I don't think I'll renew my subscription when it comes up later this year, given how erratic their plans seem.

I've always heard the ideal is about a 20% raise from your previous position, especially if you have plenty of experience with the new position.

Though this does depend on many other factors, I'd definitely try to get an idea of the standard salary for this position through any means, even a site like Glassdoor or something. Knowledge is power, especially when negotiating a salary!

Yoooo, been waiting for this to drop for ages. Outer Wilds is such an incredible game.

Yeah that's exactly the thing, people freak out so much about China having access to their data, but act much less concerned when it comes to their own government potentially having access to said data. One of these options has the ability to affect your life if they don't like your data, and it isn't China.

(Not to get me wrong, I think no government should have access to one's data, moreso pointing out the double standard)

Given what I've read about his management style, the more time he spends on Twitter, the better it is for his employees.

I remember using ModDB back then, I'm shocked that they have never updated their site since then

Yeah I see so many tech authors mentioning it, and no one I know uses it at all.

Yeah exactly this, the main bottleneck when writing code is either reading the existing code or thinking about how I want to implement some logic, not how I move my cursor and writing the code itself.

I second this. Getting a source of external motivation like a coach is great for achieving a goal like this. Especially as they would no doubt have techniques to make the journey easier.

Most TVs these days have a USB port for exactly this purpose, you can load media files up onto a flash drive and plug it in, then you should be able to browse the files and play it from there.

However, if you want to be able to play files hosted on your PC without having to copy them to a drive, you would have to set up a media server like Jellyfin on your PC and either buy or build a compatibility for your TV. Fire TV sticks or a Chromecast would work as cheap options to buy, or you could look into hosting a Kodi instance if you have spare hardware lying around.

There are really a ton of options, my above suggestions are only scratching the surface.

Methinks somehow they do care what colour their skin is...

spez was a hero...I just couldn't see it

You'd probably use water as a thermal conduction medium, similar to how old buildings had a boiler in the basement which heated water which was then sent to rooms through radiators.

Agreed, you're probably going to run into network bottlenecks before storage read times become an issue

This is exactly it, now that the economy is slowing down, reddit is just one of many tech startups which whose investors now require actual returns instead of just promises of endless growth.

This was my issue as well, I didn't see the option to select unfortunately.
