I came onto the comments to bemoan the fact that there isn't an easy way to sync progress across devices. This is definitely going to be the trigger for me to buy a Kobo

While a fun idea, arbitrary limits like this just aren’t necessary. Yes it’s all well and good in the name of reducing trackers, etc but what if I want to have an image heavy site? Why does that get perceived as a bad thing?

The definition of “nazi” will make it niche

There is the concept of Data Vending Machines (DVMs) and curated follow lists now.

There’s also work on a Web of Trust in some clients that filters notes from people that don’t meet the WOT score. It’s essentially a weighted score based on who you follow and who they follow

Yes it’s definitely possible now. My point was that people need to move past “vibe coding” to using the AI as what it should be, an assistant

This is a challenge which I don't think AI tools like Cursor have cracked yet. They're great for laying "fresh pavement" but it's akin to being a project manager contracting the work out.

Even if I use Cursor (or some other equivalent) and review the code I find my mental model of the system is much more lacking. It actually had a net negative on my productivity as it gave me anxiety at going back to the codebase.

If an AI tool could help a user interactively learn the mental model I think that would be a great step in the right direction.

I like the idea of there being interest specific mastodon servers. It makes content curation easier but the locking of accounts to a particular server is problematic.

Protocols like Nostr offer a good alternative to this. At the moment relays are just used as nodes in the decentralised network but there is work on how to view feeds from specific relays which could make the idea of content specific relays more likely

Fail to see how it was a Perl advert

As the other response said. It’s DevOps for ML. They have Amazon SageMaker which is the managed ML/MLOps offering that we use extensively because we’re a small team. The documentation is awful

Yes have seen about that. It’s crazy to me that they still haven’t released it. Really think it could save a dying product

AWS specifically have really dropped the ball on this.

I interact regularly with AWS to support our needs in MLOps and to some extent GenAI. 3 of the experts we talked to have all left for competitors in the last year.

re:Invent London this year presented nothing new of note on the GenAI front. The year before was full of promise on Bedrock.

Outside of AWS, I still can’t fathom how they haven’t integrated an AI assistant into Alexa yet either
