[User] monospaced

comment: It’s nothing even remotely like “the la riots” and you would know that if you weren’t so absolutely ignorant beyond news bites you copy paste

comment: They haven’t cut any state funding either.

comment: It’s also not the most democratic, not sure where you heard that or why you’re spewing the nonsense.

comment: But what do I know. I only grew up there, from 8 generations back in California, and recall the riots first hand.

comment: Oh right, you saw la in movies, and read about it from the other side of the planet, and have no first hand knowledge to speak of. Thats why you know so much.

comment: You do know this is all the world sees and your anecodal experience counts for shit?

comment: so basically you have ZERO new info not even based on your experience :)) You know that the world knows - from the same news :))))))

comment: I know everything about every place I was ever in! Several countries, cities, neighbourhoods, histories of the fucking coffee shops I enjoyed! Don't you?

comment: I know the owners and their life stories of every place I ever enjoyed anything in and YOU don't know what's happening in your home town? LOL

comment: Again this isnt what you think it is and my experience means far more than your nothing.

comment: You’re making this out to be a big deal. It isn’t. That’s where my experience and your ignorance comes into play.

comment: You’ve never been to la. Never known anyone who lived there. Don’t know anyone there. Stick to beers in Bucharest and coffee shops

comment: To use your own idiotic phrase, mind your own business.


post:
 "Trump administration weighs broad cancellation of California funding"

"The Trump administration is considering pulling a broad swath of federal funding from the state of California, according to two federal officials familiar with the plan and records obtained by The Washington Post.

The plan could run afoul of an existing federal court injunction and would almost certainly face fresh legal challenges. A senior White House official stressed Saturday that no final decision on blocking the funds has been made."

post:
 "You do many things at once; you read, listen to the radio, talk, smoke, eat, drink. You are the consumer with the open mouth, eager and ready to swallow everything—pictures, liquor, knowledge. This lack of concentration is clearly shown in our difficulty in being alone with ourselves. To sit still, without talking, smoking, reading, drinking, is impossible for most people. They become nervous and fidgety, and must do something with their mouth or their hands."

comment: No cunt likes the Sun, but video is video, and these are just a few of many from the last day or so. Whatever the impact, this is costing Russia a fortune.

 The word "uplift" as a verb. Just say "lift up" or better yet "raise." The word "uplifting" is an adjective, not a gerund verb.

 Analysis: Apple manages to keep up with AI but doesn't lead on innovation.

The new software updates that Apple announced today showed that the iPhone maker is keeping pace with AI tools that currently exist. But it didn’t show anything new that feels like its own fresh take on how AI can change the way people use their devics.

Remember: The annual Worldwide Developers Conference today came at a crucial time when the tech giant is under a lot of pressure to compete on AI. Apple has struggled to convince consumers and Wall Street that it’s a leader in the crucial technology, which is promised by tech executives to overhaul the way people work, communicate and find information online.

Apple announced new features today like translation of calls and messages, phone call screening, and the ability to search for items in images on your phone’s screen.

But these were some of the earliest applications of AI that arrived on Android, particularly from Google and Samsung. And while Apple is keeping pace, competitors continue to barrel ahead with new AI tools and services.

 ICE Invaded 5 year olds child’s birthday party claiming it was a gang meeting.

Used flash grenades and arrested 38 people, and 9 children. Some were in ICE detention for weeks and were released with ankle monitors. One of the children was even kicked out of school due to missing too many days in detainment.

None of the people they arrested had any gang ties or even criminal records. None were charged criminally.

 Maybe one of the problems is that Apple is afraid to ever rethink the fundamentals of their UI. iOS is still the same grid of icons as when Steve Jobs announced it and apparently when you buy an iPhone in the year 2030 or 2035 it will still look like that.

So instead you get these endless tweaks to the superfluous aspects of the UI. They keep redesigning the native apps and sometimes they get better but many times it's actually worse than the previous version. The entire concept of this new "liquid glass" seems to be that it floats on top of the old UI.

Almost every successful company falls prey to the same problem. Google search still looks like it did decades ago but has steadily gotten worse as they patched different features on top. If we could really reimagine things from scratch things could be designed much better but there's no path to get there.

[User] grafician

comment: Keeping it safe. The idea that users are stupid and everybody needs to make UI dumb proof. But users are smart and can take changes.

comment: Form follows function and until the mechanics of our touch, sight, hearing and speech evolve it'll be an evolution not a revolution when it comes to UI design.

comment: am just not sure if any of these OS's need a full redesign though? we're not redesigning how a toaster works... or a power drill...

comment: at this point all an OS needs to do is - screen wakes up, get to app in 1 click, and give me a good notification UI

comment: "Form follows function" and ease of use doesn't mean you can't ever change the design. I think it's just a result of companies not wanting to change what makes

 New Quantum Algorithm Factors Numbers With One Qubit

The catch: It would require the energy of a few medium-size stars.

Quantum computers still can’t do much. Almost every time researchers have found something the high-tech machines should one day excel at, a classical algorithm comes along that can do it just as well on a regular computer. One notable exception? Taking apart numbers. In 1994, the mathematician Peter Shor devised an algorithm that would let quantum computers factor big numbers exponentially faster than classical machines. That speedup matters because a fast-factoring algorithm could render most data-encryption methods useless. For more than 30 years, researchers have been trying to boost and guard against the power of future quantum computers.

 Car rant:

On the one hand, I'm delighted to have replaced the clutch on my old Fiat (even though it cost a fortune) because I've extended its life for a few more years...

But on the other hand, for when it's time to retire it, the current situation in the car market is terrible. There are few reliable "cheap, European-made" electric or hybrid cars. I'm seeing tests that are frightening!

The only alternative seems to be Japanese cars, but they're expensive af, even second-hand.

 I now need computer glasses and a daily pair of progressive lenses for when I am not in front of the computer...

Thoughts so far...

It feels like progressive lenses are some sort of scam by the optometry cartels to just sell bad quality lenses. They just make me feel like I am going blind when my line of sight falls out of the focus zones.

Probably need that 80s glasses strap too because I keep resting my new glasses on my head forgetting about them then bending over to grab something only to have the glasses fall off my head.

Instagram hotties are much sharper now though...

comment: i recently stared wearing glasses for close up stuff and now have a pair in every single situation I need them, because of course, they're never to hand if not.

Mert really has a point:

"okay we all had our fun—now here’s what’s actually wrong with iOS26:

bugs? whatever, it’s beta 1
but the liquid glass UI as it's implemented now? a hierarchy, legibility, and complexity nightmare
jony ive said it best referring to bauhaus: “they figured out how to bend tubes, so they made everything out of bent tubes”

this is what it looks like when:
the CEO isn’t a product guy
PMs infiltrate and erode a functional org
no one is personally held accountable

without maniacs with taste at the top, you can't ship a great product. esp one this complex.

everything looks good in isolation—but the big picture? it’s chaos.

and the PM disease is showing: every element screams for your attention because each team’s optimizing their own KPIs.

this is an orchestra without a conductor

and it's extremely disrespectful to the designers at apple who likely poured incredible amount of effort into making their own individual pixels look perfect. tim cook MUST do better conducting the incredible orchestra that is apple"

comment: In dark mode there’s a fuckload of noise caused by the edge highlights. Total overload. It’s equally contrasting on either side. Tone it down and soften

comment: the opposite edge. It’s actually amazing to me how companies still get away with a11y failures like this today. It’s not like it’s a difficult to be inclusive.

 There's a first time for everything... started an OS update on my Mac Mini M4 and the firmware went berserk. Flashing orange light on the front, won't start up. Never had this happen before.

Fortunately I have an M3 Macbook Air that I can connect with the Configurator app to try and revive the firmware. If I have to restore and reset the computer, it's not the end of the world, but hope I can avoid that. I have a Time Machine backup from late April, and pretty much everything I do on it is stored on either an external drive or my NAS at home.

Still trying to download the firmware update, it's taking forever.

post:
 "Large Language Models are not, on their own, the problem. They're tools, capable of some outcomes, doing some things, but the problem, ultimately, are the extrapolations made about their abilities, and the unnecessary drive to make them larger, even if said largeness never amounted to much.

Everything that I'm describing is the result of a tech industry — including media and analysts — that refuses to do business with reality, trafficking in ideas and ideology, celebrating victories that have yet to take place, applauding those who have yet to create the things they're talking about, cheering on men lying about what's possible so that they can continue to burn billions of dollars and increase their wealth and influence.

I understand why others might not have written this piece. What I am describing is a systemic failure, one at a scale hereto unseen, one that has involved so many rich and powerful and influential people agreeing to ignore reality, and that’ll have crushing impacts for the wider tech ecosystem when it happens.

Don't say I didn't warn you."

 Got fed up with my basement WiFi speeds despite upgrading to Google WiFi 6E a in May. Tested out some CAT6 cable to try and run the basement mesh point in backhaul mode, ran it through my living room, down the stairs to test it out.

It worked like a charm. Close to 600mb a second speeds just like I get in the main router connected to my modem upstairs. Satisfied, I drilled a small hole in the floor behind the living room entertainment center, ran it through the crawl space, and bingo, my days of slow speeds, lagging meetings, and other annoyances are over. I wish I'd done this sooner but wasn't sure how hard it would be to go through the floor.

Big circus tomorrow for his birthday..  more military on the street

and then all of a sudden, Israel kicks hornets nest seemingly out of the blue, which if it doesnt kill us all in vaporising blinding light, will inevitably lead to more protests in the street..

 Saw someone on the street looking down at their phone, clearly trying to find their bearings on a map, so I go "Hey, what are you looking for?" because this place is like a maze and there are always people lost. He says a local train station — so I take stock of the situation and suggest he go a slightly longer, but much simpler route taking in a nice canal walk, rather than the one he was on, which is a bit shorter, but with loads of turns.

He's happy with that, and I'm happy to have done something for someone else. Yaay, society!

Except I've just realised now that I've come back in and sat in front of my computer that I entirely misunderstood which station he was going to, so sent him the completely wrong way.

Oh well, I hope he has a nice walk before he realises, at least.

comment: @cherub yeah i'm asking the same question.


post:
 "SEAL is a framework that enables language models to generate their own finetuning data and optimization instructions—called self-edits—in response to new tasks or information.

SEAL learns to generate these self-edits via reinforcement learning (RL), using downstream task performance after a model update as the reward.

Each training iteration involves the model generating a self-edit based on a task context, applying the self-edit via supervised finetuning, evaluating the updated model, and reinforcing edits that improve performance.

This process is implemented with a lightweight reinforcement learning algorithm called ReSTEMEM, which does rounds of selecting high-reward samples using rejection sampling and reinforcing via SFT. We demonstrate SEAL in two domains: (1) Knowledge Incorporation, where the model integrates new factual information by generating logical implications as synthetic data, and (2) Few-Shot Learning, where the model autonomously selects data augmentations and training hyperparameters to adapt to new abstract reasoning tasks."
