Exactly, the article makes no sense. Dash-to-dock is fantastic.

I’m having fun using vanilla js with lit-html. Using string templates instead of jsx. VSCode extensions for lit make it almost identical to editing vue templates with type checking etc

How does this stack up aginst using lit-html?

Was there anything remotely like that back in the days ? The replayability of this genre?

Cadaver had the isometric and style but wasn’t a rogue like.

Again they chose to not tell users about Premium LITE. Why?

Wouldnt it convince more people to pay? And Google can try to entice users later to upgrade to the full Premium. Would t that make sense?

The hell? Is Adobe using bots to promote their software?

Pet peeve : wish "iOS" term was banned and use "iPhone only" instead.

OAuth is too abstract and that’s why it’s bad.

I’m not a backend guy, for a hobby php site I’m trying to get Oauth2 with gmail free smtp, and the token refresh part to run on its own and even with packages like Phpmailer there’s no simple working copy/paste examples, just loads and loads of bits and pieces and outdated examples and small print about Google changed this or that… I mean wtf is the point of having a package that is supposed to abstract OAuth if you still end up having to dig for hours and having to figure OAuth2’s flow in detail?

I’m so disgusted I figured maybe I’ll do the password with 2fa on that email acct and be done with it even though OAuth shpuld be the better option.

Yes it is then honored on the AppleTV app too.

Unfortunately they still clog up the Subscriptions feed.

Me too but I have to constantly manage my history.

Thankfully the AppleTV app makes this easy if you click and hold in the History view you can remove single videos after watching them (so my home is not filled with lolcats).

Like, I like Courtney Ryan but I’ll never keep a video in my watch history (only Follow), otherwise I start seeing all those Tarzan-meets-Jane podcasts etc. that the author mentions.

Mainly it seems to be about keywords so you have to kinda guess what keywords go with a video and remove it from watch history if ypu dont want the algorithm to go down that route.

It’s a shame YT doesnt have a separate history for gaming and music,along with a separate "recommened" there. I would go on binges there frequently while still being able to chill in the evening on my tv with the content I expect in the Home tab. Without this I am forced to stay away from exploring music or gaming, too much watch history maintenance.

Yes exactly and it further emphasizes the concerns Gilchrist has with his theory that there is an imbalance that has grown and shaped society.

I wonder just what influence will it have if we end up spending lots of time using chat-like interface but talking to someone who is so "left brained".

How will it change us and how we relate to one another? Probaby not in good ways I’m afraid. Especially at a time of increasing loneliness, distance relationships, online friendships, less intimacy… woke culture etc.

That’s so cool. Like an Amiga, but with Intel Inside ;)

I would not have been impressed by the constant churning of the HDD though (just a guess).

I think what’s fascinating about GPT developments is it may very well emulate part of our left brain hemisphere. As McGilchrist pointed out, with lots of research and studies on people with brain damage strokes etc. is that it is the left hemisphere that sees the world from an internal representation. Right hemi. sees a car as the "thing in itself" in direct experience (colours etc). The left hemisphere makes it into a category of "car", now removed from direct experience.

And just like gpt’s data set isnt necessarily truth, so is our own image of the world which as we know can be deeply distorted through abusive childhood, cults etc. In fact, all of human knowledge is simply beliefs, agreed stories about reality. For example "red" is a word/sound that points to an experience. The word alone only has meaning in context (what GPT can handle), but can never substitue for a conscious experience.

Crucially imho, software will never be able to do what the right hemisphere does. And I find it dumbfounding that even Lex Fridman doesnt see the fundamental difference between conceptual thought / language based reasoning, and direct experience aka consciousness.
