  • Microsoft claims "2026 is the moment" for AI PCs, but its essay-length beginner explanation only creates more confusion — Is it any wonder adoption is slow?

    Jump

  • So I haven't felt the need to go with a tiling compositors. I already use multiple munitors, and kind of have designated spots for the apps I use.

    I love stability and don't want any surprises after Windows made enough surprises. So decided to go with Debian Trixie, and KDE.

    But I use Arch in my spare laptop, btw. EndeavorOS where I experiment some stuff. Maybe down the line I will give hyprland a try on my spare first.

  • Yeah.. It is the Windows that finally pushed me the fastest to install Linux. I was very comfortable with Debian servers as part of my work, but never managed to switch my daily driver. Two weeks ago that happened. Peace..

  • Hollywood groups condemn ByteDance's AI video generator, claiming copyright infringement

    Jump

  • Interesting. When the studios were able to make deals with Runway and other video generators, I didn't see them making a fuss like this. At least after getting the deal. They are sure ByteDance is not going to make any deal with them. So it is copyright infringement. There were clear repirts showing Runway used movies to train their model without any permission. I guess, if ByteDance makes a deal with the stufios and and the union then they will simply ignore it?

  • Ukrainian slider wears helmet despite IOC ban

    https://www.bbc.com/sport/articles/c6274mgve33o

    This is going to be a very important decision. IOC will have to expand and define the rule

    Rule 50.2 of the Olympic Charter states "no kind of demonstration or political, religious or racial propaganda is permitted in any Olympic sites, venues or other areas".

    This is because if IOC bans the athlete, then they are going to define showing the photograph of friends who died in a war is 'political propaganda', but showing the photograph of relatives who died in plane crash is permitted. The key point is the athlete did not use a phrase like "End War in Ukraine". They just had a set of photographs. This is going to be very tricky.

  • I have no clue what was going on in the head of the people came up with this. Did they got dragged back to early 2010s where gamification was still a thing?

    If a company is making an electronic device/interface and you make it so people with physical disabilities can't use it. Those execs need to rethink their lives.

  • Main issue I have with the 80-20 rule is this. That 20% is almost always the people with disabilities. My answer to people who sometimes claim the product we are building does not need much accessibility features, because

    <insert stupid reason>

    , is "then you should find a differenr job".

    Key point is disability does not just mean people without a limb, or people without good eye sight. There are a lot of people with disabilities that are not easily visible as in the case of OP. It can be trembling hands, motion sickness, learning disabilities like dyslexia, ADHD, migrain, and the list goes on. If diversity disturbs one person, they almost always have very high privileges.

  • It is lowercase only. But lowercase in number case. The upper and lower case is distinguished based on alignment in this, where in text case it is based on shape and/or size.

    Edit: my use of the words number case and letter case does not look like the standard words. But the concept still exist. Check this: https://totallytype.com/figures.php

  • As far as I know, that is the 'number case'. Where the difference between upper and lower case is defined based on alignment of the numbers with baseline of typography.

    I think the post is taking about 'letter case'. Which we commonly use to yell at people through text. I don't think there is an equivalent like that in case of numbers. Mainly because numbers came from languages which are unicase by default. Like the Indian languages and Arabic.

  • Chomsky had deeper ties with Epstein than previously known, documents reveal

    Jump

  • I think it is because Chomsky's name has been associated with Epstein before this, and when new information popped they reported what is in there. Mainly how Chomsky remained in contact even after knowing the issues of Epstein. I think they did a good job of reporting it properly, instead of sensationalising it, by just explaining the new stuff that is unsealed.

  • Aah.. I see, I thought you were skeptical of the article. But you were actually expressing confidence in them.

  • Ex-IDF legal chief hospitalized after suicide attempt, police commissioner confirms

    Jump

  • For those who are unaware, she leaked footages of war crimes committed by a set of IDF soldiers. Why? She was the top lawyer of the military, tasked with enforcement of rule of law inside IDF. When she started the probe, the far right harrassed her, and even attacked her. In an attempt to control the abuse she leaked the footage. But that didn't stop the abuse. Later she had to admit she is the person behind leaking the footage, had to step down, and face the enquiry.

    In no way I'm going to argue she was a guardian angel or someone standing up for human rights, because she did the investigation purely to avoid international scrutiny. The logic is if the internal scrutiny is strong then international enformant agencies (like ICC, which I found hilarious), will not interfere with the matters inside the Isreal. In other words create a bunch of scapegoats, so that the war crimes can be continued.

  • The problem is not when I have to rebase. I know how to handle it. But with juniors they approach us only when things are in a really bad situation, where they cluelessly applied some commands they found on internet or from an LLM. Then it is very annoying to sit down and untangle the mess they created.

    And regarding the pushing without fetching, it is usually a different branch. So they won't incorporate the new changes in the main branch into their working branch, but just push their work into a branch. Again not a big deal. Just annoying.
