Do Nerd Fonts use the Unicode private use area?

It seems not. It seems like they replace CJK characters instead.

The PUA seems like the right way to handle this.

Motorola has been in the tracker game since way before Air Tags.

I remember getting a Bluetooth tracker with my Moto X circa 2014. Back when Tile dominated the market.

They can’t even be punished. robots.txt is just a convention, not a regulation. It’s totally not enforceable.

The only legal framework we have is copyright law. Those who oppose this behavior will have to demonstrate copyright violation, and that may be difficult to do since the law hasn’t caught up.

Kaspersky can whine all they want. Russia is embargoed. They’re not getting their money.

Kaspersky is a good company doing good work in the cyber security space. Unfortunately, because of the embargo, they may have to turn to the black market to sell future exploits. Or maybe not; I’m not totally sure what kind of ethical standards they have.

The article says all phones Android 9 and up are in on the network.

But I was under the impression that enrollment in the network was still rolling out? Anyone have details on the current state?

To me, this just sounds like the network isn’t rolled out fully yet (or that NYC residents don’t use Android, which seems suspect) rather than a failing of the device itself.

Nvidia is in a great spot for the AI bubble.

It drives up prices now, but when the bubble eventually burst, data centers are still going to need accelerators for more viable compute tasks.

Absolutely the most robust business in the bubble.

There are still issues with WearOS, but I think some of that is hardware. Last I heard, Qualcomm’s wearable SoCs were trash, but Samsung is in a good position since they have both the SoC fab and make the watch itself.

Many industries are shifting to a model where Android is the de facto OS for consumer-facing interactions. It’s not well optimized outside of phones yet, but it is rapidly improving. Many cars run Android now, for example.

I’m moderately optimistic about the next generation of WearOS devices.

Unfortunately, I think it’s been demonstrated that OpenAI will feed your data into their training pipeline whether you like it or not. They did this with YouTube. And they demonstrated this with Scarlett Johanson. (Even if they used a voice actor instead of actually scraping voice clips of her, it’s still unethical.)

So we knew they’d just scrape these articles anyway. This way, at least the publications get paid.

This is a good book on how Google treats production environments at their scale.

Cattle, not pets.

Fine tuning a general TTS model on a specific custom voice doesn’t require as much data as you think it does.

The hard part is building the foundational model that can be easily fine tuned. And OpenAI has already done that.

Lol. I love that Tenacious D is in this.

Google operates on a trunk model, according to this:

In the US, I pay $90/month ($1,080/year) for 1 Gbps internet.

That’s it. No TV. No landline. Just Internet.

Nintendo has shown they have no interest in making real console hardware

Ah yes, the no true Scotsman argument.

Nintendo doesn’t make hardware to compete with Sony and Microsoft, despite having the best selling console hardware all-time, among the current generation, and among several previous generations.

You don’t have to be a graphical powerhouse to compete with PlayStation and Xbox…

If caching is properly configured, the cache (Cloudflare) will see thousands of requests, but the VPS should only see one request.

Just put the site behind a cache, like Cloudflare, and set your cache control headers properly?

They mention that they are already using Cloudflare. I’m confused about what is actually causing the load. They don’t mention any technical details, but it does kinda sound like their cache control headers are not set properly. I’m too lazy to check for myself though…

Munich is cheaper for Google than literally any city in the US.

Software developer compensations are insanely high in the US, at least at these multinational corporations.
