for me it's a most disappointing model release ever. It takes a very long, runs bunch of random commands and burns through so many tokens even for simple tasks

Actually, I think we are living in the most equal times ever. Don't get me wrong the situation is very bad especially if one belongs to any minority group but the wealth is divided more equally than any time in the history before

>I’m an American who speaks English, and yet YouTube insists in showing me local ads

The number of travelers in foreign countries are so low compared to local population that I don't think it even makes sense for Google to optimize ads for people like that

It's an extremelly low effort post. How did it even make into the frontpage? Upvotes by bots?

>Every time I dig into crypto I find things that seem stupid, or useless, or actively bad. But so many people are into it!

During my time in tech I've only knew two people who held crypto. However, I've know a lot of people(myself included) who got into crypto, got dissilusioned by the promises, and after seeing that nothing they promissed actually arrived left.

5 Years ago I've heard how crypto is going to be a killer usecase for e-commerse, banking, and even cloud computing but no actual work was ever done to acomplish these goals

The worst mistake I made was accepting linkedin invites from recruiters. I expected that it will increase my chances to get offered some kind of job but most of them never even wrote to me. And my linkedin absolutely filled with spam

Wow, I've just tried it and it's really good. As mentioned in the article, I already had winget in my PC. So I was able to use winget upgrade and it listed all the apps that I can upgrade(None of them were installed using winget but it still worked).

It's a huge improvement over downloading new version of VLC from their website for example.In total it upgraded 10 applications. The only annoying thing was that it still had to open GUI installers for updating applications. I'm also not sure how does it handle applications that are currently open during the update

I've noticed another trend recently where it seems that some websites write content for google SEO instead of optimized for human readability. E.g.: I've seen my exact search phrase repeated mutiple times and then a very long article about the topic when what I searched was a simple question with a few words answer.

Have you seen Kelsey's Hightower demo where he used s3 event as a trigger for Google Cloud Function? You can already use serverless providers that abstract your function from the provider, but of course in that case you're locked to that specific vendor.

Also, no licence stops you from migrating from Lambda at any moment. Other Companies have you to pay enormous licencing fees and lock you for a one year contract or even longer.

The problem isn't Firefox. The problem is chrome. Since it has a biggest market share and most of the web developers use it. Websites tend to be more optimized for Chromium engine than Firefox. I moved to Firefox and Gmail and other google apps work terribly slow. I'm trying to find a new email provider now . Does anyone have recommendations?
