I am confused as to why the firmware is able to control the LED at all. Seems much more sensible to just hook it up to the power the goes to the camera.



I can’t tell if you are trolling or not. The article uses a different spelling than the one you are looking for. If you search for “gandhi” instead of “ghandi” you will find it.



The claim about Gandhi sleeping naked with a young woman (which is true) links to opindia in the article.



At this point I doubt anyone could gather anything that would constitute hard evidence which is unfortunate.


I’ll relay this to Xi Jinping immediately he’ll be glad to know of your approval


How do the SaaS AI code assistants work? I am guessing they have to send the entire file or the codebase to their datacenter. Won’t this be a problem for corporations who want to protect their codebase?


we maintain the same goal – to build digital advertising solutions that respect individuals’ rights

Does it include the right to be able to choose not to be advertised to?

Yes, advertising enables free access to most of what the internet provides

What does this even mean?

I don’t read their blog posts but seems like they have fully embraced startup lingo.



Yup. Just this morning I was brushing my teeth and he seized my toothbrush.


People Make Games made a video about Valve’s structure as well if anyone is interested.


Anyone has experience self hosting a YouTube frontend exclusively for the LAN?
I wanna host something like Invidious/Piped on my SBC which can allow me to consume YouTube slop without ads. Normally my flow for consuming YouTube slop is to download the video using yt-dlp which is then made available via jellyfin. Sometimes I view YouTube videos from my computer's Firefox but today I was shown ads despite uBlock Origin which has left me scarred and deformed (metaphorically). I would like to run a YouTube frontend on my SBC as a backup. Public instances have not performed well for me. It would also be good for devices that don't let you use adblockers in some capacity. I have looked at Invidious and Piped. While they are great to use, I found that their stack has a lot of components which I am hoping to avoid since they can be hard to manage. So I'm wondering if someone here runs something like this locally for private use. Any input is appreciated.

Anyone here has experience using a subsonic-like server?
I'm looking into setting up a subsonic-like server to stream music from. I find the ecosystem a bit weird because there are a lot of independent softwares that implement a subsonic API (I don't know what that entails exactly). Because of this it's a bit difficult to choose which implementation would be best for me. So far I have tried gonic and navidrome. Being golang powered they are the easiest to deploy and are actively maintained. It looks alright so far but because of the weird way I organise my music, I require two things: - the server should not expect me to follow a given folder structure. Gonic expects all files belonging to one album in one folder I think. - the server should allow me browse and play music by folder. I like to keep random related music under a single folder. Navidrome seems to not be capable of this but I am not too sure. I could be wrong with the above statements so feel free to correct. Please let me know what you use and what your experience has been. Then there is the problem of client on Android. Out of the ones I discovered, seems like symfonium and tempo are actively maintained and only tempo is foss. I am using tempo right now and so far so good. But suggestions/advice for this is again welcome.

What’s a “real” ad? They use that term multiple times and I can’t imagine how it is different from a normal ad or if the adds that the start menu already had were somehow different from normal ads.



The way they explain the use case of cognitive enhancements it doesn’t sound as controversial as the title implies. Unless I misunderstood it.


Tests are meant to gatekeep who gets to get the field training required to become a doctor. Sending every jabroni into residency willy-nilly is probably gonna collapse the healthcare system completely.



It says as much as it does for an LLM but doctors have to have a lot of field experience after passing these tests before they get certified as doctors.


This research has been done a lot of a times but I don’t see the point of it. Exams are something I would expect LLMs, especially the higher end ones, to do well because of their nature. But it says next to nothing about how reliable the LLM as an actual doctor.




I failed the interview because even though I got all the answers correct I had their interview prep page open in another tab and when they gave me the chance to come clean about it I lied instead 😬


I still miss what.cd

Isn’t there a site called redacted that is meant to replace it? I remember failing the interviews for it.


The article targets a specific type of person who buys AI marketing wholesale rather than someone who just has a positive opinion of AI.


You don’t have to memorize a ton of passwords for multiple sites which helps prevent password reuse. Whatever you use to decrypt your passkey or password is not transported over the network.

It’s not foolproof of course but it’s a huge improvement.


Courtroom sketch of Sam Bankman-Fried being read the verdict in his fraud trial

Is this a thing that officially happens in courtrooms (drawing sketches) or someone just did it out of their own accord?


I am not sure but maybe this can give a hint as to how high speed wireless data transfer can be helpful: https://www.ericsson.com/en/cases/2019/5g-smart-harbor-at-the-port-of-qingdao

The 5G connection included data traffic from more than 30 high-definition cameras as well as control data for a programmable logic controller (PLC). These operations required millisecond-level latency control signals, as well as stable, remote and real-time control, requirements which only key 5G technologies can deliver.

The field trial confirmed the feasibility and potential of 5G applications for the development of smart harbors, and as a result, Ericsson, China Unicom and other partners have agreed to jointly explore commercial 5G networks and solutions for smart harbors that include both automated harbors and the modernization of traditional harbors.

It’s not just meant for end users.


I agree. The reason I said what I said was that assumed that this taxi would not have a pilot in it. A lot of what planes do is automated but having a highly trained human pilot overseeing everything relieves me.


I would never sit in something like this. The idea of an autonomous airborne vehicle seems terrifying to me.


I did the same. Faced a problem where mp3 and opus replaygain tags follow different spec (replaygain calculators for some reason use R128_ tags for opus files for some reason) and some players don’t support it yet. Apart from that there haven’t been issues.



It has happened on rare occasions. Most of the time, no. But I didn’t think they had access to the mouse cursor trajectory.


Bots definitely can check a box, and they can even mimic the erratic path of human mouse movement

Damn I didn’t know that was being tracked too


Is this a puff piece for Google because they are going through a secret anti-trust trial?


It’s mostly about infrastructure as code but I have never used it.


Look, I’m a trial judge. I am not anyone that understands the industry and the markets in the way that you do. And so I take seriously when companies are telling me that if this gets disclosed, it’s going to cause competitive harm.

Not sure what a trial judge is but he sounds way in over his head.


300 searches per month for 5 USD sounds a bit expensive. That’s about 10 searches per day. Sometimes I have had to try four or five variations of a search query to find what I am looking for on Google. Having to worry about exhausting a paid search quota sounds a little bit nerve-racking.

Need advice regarding setting up network on LAN with Raspberry Pi
Title is a bit vague because I don't know the correct terms to phrase it properly. I have a Raspberry Pi that I use to run jellyfin, transmission, blocky, soju. Recently I added libreddit to it seeing how the rate limits are affecting public instances. The problem is that currently if I need to go my libreddit instance, I have to go to 192.168.0.x:xxxx which is extremely unfun to type. Is there a way I can access it more elegantly? One solution I found was to configure blocky with a custom DNS that points to the RPi where I can configure an nginx reverse proxy so that lr.rpi.local for example serves libreddit. Any other ideas for this?
