Why compare this to Dippy AI of all things? Looks like a platform/app targeting a different type of AI character consumer. Also I see nothing about Dippy being open source.

The article came off more as an advertisement for Bluesky than it did constructive criticism of X.

Not knocking BlueSky, I understand they're currently the most viable competitor other than Threads.

From my understanding of the change you'll still be blocked from engagement, the blocker's tweets will just be visible in replies and when linked to directly. I'll need to see how this will look/work from the blocked user's end before I can decide if the change is good or bad.

I'm most curious as to if this will reduce the number of alt accounts used for essentially the same purpose. How will the psychology of being able to see tweets of users someone is blocked by effect the likeliness of the user switching to another account to attempt to engage with the person.

They say the policy goes into effect January 2025, but I'd expect some managers will try to get their teams in sooner for appearances since in the same post he mentions reducing bureaucracy and in turn the number of managers.

To a degree for sure. Definitely not in the context of Texas. Dallas, DFW, Plano areas are unfortunately not that cheap haha

Change my mind, but modern JS frameworks aren't just hype. They solve real problems for complex UIs. PHP's great for some stuff, but try building a snappy SPA with it.

I've been wanting to build my own handheld ever since I picked up a 3d printer so the last few months I've been checking these builds out. The blackberry keyboard is my favorite part of the build, definitely going to do the same for mine. Looks great with the casing.

Currently experiencing the hug of death it seems.

We switched from LastPass to Bitwarden and have been fairly happy with it. 1password has a really nice looking desktop app, but haven't used it on windows. All 3 of them have cross platform support now so a lot of it simply depends on your needs.

1Password is a better deal for their Teams package compared to Bitwarden last I checked. You get 10 teams users for $20, while Bitwarden is $4 per. Enterprise tier Bitwarden is a bit cheaper though.

Solid color picker. Works better than other web apps I've tried. Bookmarked for later. Well done app.

The touch was pretty good too. I had a Palm Pre Plus that I picked up for $30 in 2010. Thing booted in seconds, had multi-tasking that looked like magic to iphone users, and had a swappable battery that got a lot of hate at the time for only lasting 1 day of prolonged use (with up to 2 weeks of standby).

I could bring a couple spare batteries on a trip and never need to charge my phone.

Good. Do Kwon is grifting sociopath and lost a lot of people money. From the start his first reaction was PR damage control and like the post says he even tried to make a run for it.

Zero personal accountability.

As a basic collectible game I really like this idea.

It would be nice if it was possible to trade or auction art after buying it, but the focus seems to be more on collecting new art which I respect.

Any planned features?

I started making one for to talk about and share my favorite punk music, but I’m thinking about expanding it to be more personal too. https://punk.nekoweb.org/

You should try telling her to pick the wrong numbers. She’ll either be successful or rich!

They mean it was established by the CEO's experience with him as an engineer.

To the company it was never, and as high a recommendation as the CEO would be; most people would agree they did the right thing. Unless you're hired before a hiring manager or whomever is doing the hiring you should follow the process. If you treat it like a joke because you feel entitled by your connections then be willing to accept the outcome.

I've used turbotax for the last decade. They lure you in with free services for enlisted military or other discounts, then make it feel as annoying as possible to switch.

Realizing how much I've been ripped off now I think this is the year I'm finally going to switch.

Reading the article. I'm not making any hard claims.

I think the M3 is most likely still going to be better, but I want it to have more competition.

Intel's Core Ultra packs new tech, but can it really match Apple's M3's ecosystem and energy efficiency?

I went on a deep dive about David Hilbert a few years ago. He did incredible work. Unfortunate that his death was heavily overshadowed by the war.

Hilbert's 6th isn't just a problem; it's a quest for the ultimate scientific Rosetta Stone. A century on, we're still decoding the universe's complex math, inching closer to a universal scientific language. It's a testament to the enduring power of a great question: to inspire and challenge across ages.

When I hear people talk about unsafe ai, it’s usually in regard to bias and accountability. Certain aspects like misinformation are problems that can be solved, but people are easily fooled.

In my opinion the benefits heavily outweigh the risks. Photoshop has existed for decades now, and AI tools make it easier, but it was already pretty easy to produce a deep fake beforehand.

Over 200 actions? This is impressive. Would be interesting to see it applied to other games.

Looks pretty decent. I like the name and tagline. The app runs well on iOS except it seemed kind of difficult to swipe through the intro/tutorial section after signing up, had to close and reopen the app when it didn't seem to want to go to the next slide. Would recommend a skip button somewhere for that part. I like the use of friend codes too.

What did you build it in?

Heads up for anyone at work.

Submissions are open with no manual verification done, and there's no filter.

Scrolled to the bottom as the page loaded and the first thing I see is a racial slur.

We've got a seasoned CTO and a product designer who knew how to play their cards right with AI. Good on them for making a sale, though it makes me wonder why the buying duo didn’t whip up their own platform. Maybe DimeADozen had some unique sauce with its prompt system or maybe it was about snagging something with a proven track record. Either way it seems like a risky bet when I can get similar results myself going straight to GPT+ for $20 less a month ($39+ less using the API)

At my past company we for sure found our bug bounty program to be beneficial, but it was pretty common for us to get poorly documented submissions on the daily. The key is to set clear guidelines so you don't get overwhelmed with low-quality reports.

If I could recommend anything to an org trying to build out a bounty program it would be to invest in a robust triage system rather than building your own. While building your own might seem cost-effective, the long-term maintenance and updates can become a hassle and a good triage system streamlines the process so you can focus on fixing vulnerabilities.

He was out of touch.

People give Balmer a lot of crap, and while most of it is well deserved, I think people give him too hard a time for his comments about the iPhone. It's essential to consider the context of the time. When he made that statement, BlackBerry was dominant in the business sector due to its keyboard and secure email features. Windows Mobile devices were also pretty competitive, and the concept of a touch-only device was foreign to many people. Balmer's comments were reflective of the prevailing business sentiment at the time.

The lesson here is not just that Balmer was wrong, but that any executive can be if they become too myopic, focusing only on what has been successful in the past without considering the disruptive potential of new technologies.

Canter may have been seeking a quick marketing win, but he ended up shaping the internet's commercial landscape in a way that's still being debated so many years later. It's definitely a cautionary tale of how a single action can ripple through an ecosystem.

I built a niche social platform that’s done fairly well over the last few years. Implemented single sign on for Twitter and google, along with email.

With about 50k users about 14.8k are single sign on, with the majority of single sing ins being google. Something I noticed was that early on we got way more Twitter sign ups, but over the last 2 years that seems to have changed and we get a lot more email sign ups.

I’m not a fan of single sign on for most of the services I use every day like Spotify, but for throw away or single use signups it’s great. I’ve definitely noticed a trend where other people do the same so I expect the percentage to vary pretty greatly depending on the service.

Yeah nevermind Unity’s support for close to every other platform (PlayStation 4/5, Xbox One/X/S, Switch, android, PC, Linux)

This is a iPhone and Mac engine darn it and that’s what matters!!

Good. So many ppl lost their money in that scam. They knew what they were doing to people.
