Whole post is worth reading but this had me laughing

You know what NASA's big problem is? Not enough motion graphics on the jobs page.

It has? You can file an OR-40 online in their own form... it's not the most ergonomic web app you'll ever use but it does work.

I've had some success running builds as a GH action, but macOS instances are billed at a higher rate and it adds up... super valuable to my workflow to have CI build & test every push on a PR, my wishlist is faster builds, no Xcode Cloud quirks.

Are you running this for CI/CD somewhere (GH actions, something hand rolled) or running locally?

It just went away for one of my developer accounts for a couple weeks right after they did their ASC analytics redesign. Never could get any help from support.

Eerily familiar: AZ, MI, WI, and PA hold the nation's future in their hands.

😬😬😬

looks great, just needs a 6" lift kit for the US market

Like explaining a telegraph or something... so every electric motor used to have little rotating electrical contacts inside? And to stay in contact they had little springs pushing into the rotor? And when they wore down from friction you had to take the whole motor apart or throw it away? Nonsense.

Rise of the brushless motor alone is a huge deal

One word… cybertanker

oh word? new coke could autonomously ransomware your bank?

Right right, and like circa 2000 if you're writing code for a *cryptography phd* is there even a #2 language choice? Plain C I guess?

Yeah but he wrote his PhD in C++, and bitcoin *also* uses C++. Got 'em, Sherlock!

Incredible op ed. Nearly every graf is either misleading or undermines what came before.

I’d learned enough by then to know that P.G.P. relies on public-key cryptography. So does Bitcoin. A Bitcoin user has two keys: a public key, from which an address is derived that acts as a digital safe deposit box; and a private key, which is the secret combination used to unlock that box and spend the coins it contains. How interesting, I thought, that Mr. Back’s grad-school hobby involved the same cryptographic technique that Satoshi had repurposed. The topic of Mr. Back’s Ph.D. thesis, he told me, was distributed computer systems: Programs that rely on a web of independent computers known in computer parlance as “nodes” to work together to run their software. This was another technological pillar of Bitcoin. And Mr. Back’s thesis project focused on C++ — the same programming language Satoshi used to code the first version of the Bitcoin software.

lol come on

Well, sure shows off why they didn't release this one as a preview

You do gotta hand it to em, if a Dyson sphere was in fact priced in, $2T would be pretty cheap

That was a freebie, this round of reputational harm he has to pay his legal team to cause!

whoa big app

and he can't DKIM correctly? 🙄

I think their analytics update broke Xcode Cloud for some accounts and they just didn't tell anyone til the next maintenance window.

Updating this gripe. Xcode Cloud came back for the account after about 12 days of downtime! DTS said it wasn't their problem, Xcode developer support didn't provide any useful response, radar just produced more and more detailed requests for info.

Wait, what? Have I missed a Text modifier? Or does bitrig drop into TextKit or something to do this?

I feel like I see that van about once a week.

Xcode Cloud -- down for everyone, or just me?

However, this is bad, and shows they are failing, because [TK TK TK].

Whereas the net benefit edge is Be My Eyes and similar apps that interpret camera input for a blind/vision impaired user. Also video but in the other direction!

Exclusive | OpenAI Scraps Sora in Continued Push to Focus on Coding and ‘Agent’ Tools The app, released last year, allowed people to insert themselves into famous movie scenes, among other functions.

Lot of dunks, but this is the correct move and good news. There's a continuum of net benefit <---> net harm from these tools and realistic video from a prompt is all the way over on the harm end.
