but then, but then your corporate provided laptop with 8GB RAM and 128GB with locked down Windows Entprise™® may need 1000th of security policy exceptions and won't even fit all dependencies on its disk. Not to mention that it would be building for like 10h. Think of the shareholders! The corporation would have to buy actually usable hardware for it's workers! Think of the cost! /j

For real tho, not every project can be build by everyone locally, but at least parts of it should be locally runnable for devs to be able work (at all IMO). What I am noticing is more and more coding is being done on some server somewhere Github Codespaces anyone? Google Colab? etc.

What I am also noticing is that this tools like GH-A there is not really a way to test the CI code other than.. commit, push, wait, commit, push, wait... That's just absurd to me. Obviously all CIs have some quirks that sometimes you have _just run it_ and see if it works but this... it's like that for everything! Abusrd I say!

In organization setting this is almost useless if you are (or forced to) use some pre-made actions and/or actions that are for your organization only (they cannot be downloaded) also useless if you are forced to use self hosted runner with image that you don't have access to. Not to mention env/secrets and networking...

What if the person owed money has no idea how to check if a bill is not a counterfeit, doesn't want to learn about really small security prints on every note, what if somebody robs their wallet?

They should be! Have we not learned anything from Apollo? :D Or atleast provision an adapter or something.

Very interesting stuff. I wonder how this one camera (one viewpoint), flat images models work in completely novel environments (not seen in training data). I am wondering if this model could be used with stereo cameras as is.

When reading this for first time (like two years ago) it struck me how many issues of accelerando world we actually have right now in ours. In fiction they are just hyperboled to extreme (sometimes for comedic appeal).

Honestly except occasional location service/embedded maps not working in some app that only implemented google maps APIs - I have like one app that actually doesn't work (is not usable) and I am using grapheneOS as daily driver for at least 3 years now.

This is almost already a thing with ~~Android~~ Google Play Services and google services in general. They know where you where, when, what apps you used during that time, what notifiactions you received, how you get there and probably a lot more.

IMO That is because we got used to always on, always watching, always working apps / services that run "somewhere" not on our devices. Even in selfhosted open source alternatives most of the applications expect to be run continously.

Example: Google Photos, vs LibrePhotos vs Google Picasa - the last one only worked when you wanted it to work not 24/7

> If you knew the LLM does this after every prompt, is that a sufficient condition for possibly concluding that it's conscious?

Yes.

(For me.)
