This is so damn good.

Of course, NVIDIA's boss will say AI can do magic. Everyone can now be a doctor, lawyer, programmer, and whatnot. He is selling a high-end GPU that costs $10,000. He is making tons of money ;) Ha!

Any #Chinese literature fans know where I can find a copy of Liang Qichao's story "A Chronicle of the Future of New China"?

Looking for an English translation.

Boosts appreciated?

Humans!

Please don't send us any more unsolicited nude pics with instructions on how to get to your house.

Mozilla has lost touch with its primary user base. Firefox users are dedicated and actively choose to install Firefox on their devices, even over other popular browsers such as Edge, Safari, and Chrome. They are considered power users, and any shenanigans toward them (such as displaying full-screen VPN Ads) could result in them switching to a different browser. Mozilla stops Firefox fullscreen VPN ads after user outrage https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/mozilla-stops-firefox-fullscreen-vpn-ads-after-user-outrage/

We spend roughly 10x as much time reading code as we do writing it. A tool or technique that makes you twice as "productive" at writing code *at best* makes you 5% more productive over all. Making your code easier to understand will have 10x the impact. But that doesn't sell tools, so you won't be reading about it in Forbes.

I created an interesting new (free, web-based) puzzle app for mobile devices (works best on iPads, less-well-to-not-at-all on other devices). Want to try some challenging puzzles that blend spatial reasoning and manual dexterity? Just Slide to Unlock! https://slide.isohedral.ca/

The UK Government is about to launch an advertising campaign to undermine the end-to-end security of your family's DMs. E2EE helps to ensure when you share a picture of your children, a paedophile or criminal isn't snooping on that image. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-65686989 #encryption #privacy

The new #LEGO Mars Rover looks brilliant, love that they included Ingenuity, but sad there's no pet rock. https://www.theverge.com/23733997/lego-mars-rover-perseverance-price-release-date

There are so many things for which Rishi has to have "not enough information to make a decision on" right now.

I feel sorry for him.

Must be so hard to not trip over and fall in a pile of enough information. Between Boris and Suella there's just info lying all over the place.

NEW: In a leaked EU document detailing 20 countries' opinions on a proposal to scan people's private messages for illegal material, which WIRED obtained, officials from Spain said they would like to ban end-to-end encryption in the EU.
