- How is this substantively different from the endless spam we all receive from clueless illiterate spammers?
- Could this be a sign that Google is starting to think again?
For an organisation that often does deeply intelligent things, they spend such a lot of time treating their users unnecessarily poorly because obvious implications seem not to occur to them.
- Yes, this seems something that would be so easy to get right.
Not to take away from the achievement of this repo but no one benefits from a recording where the person doing it hasn't decided up front what they're going to demo and then ponders if they type magnet or just delete it and go with the default. If someone has gone to this much effort with a project, surely they can do a few fun throughs, till they can demo it smoothly. Sure, leave pauses, for people to follow what's actually happening but don't draw out the typing, that's just painful!
- Would be interesting to leverage the non spoken/environment noises to guide what level of detail and style of speech a chatbot replied with, for instance being more casual, gentle, with a touch more detail if in a quiet home/office environment, but more curt and concise with emphasized diction if the person is traveling, such as in a noisy train concourse. People tend to do that subconsciously but bots ignorantly wittering on can be annoying and hard to use because they miss the cues.
- Absolutely. I like the diplomatic way the authors put this, whilst making it blatant what the implications are.
- It's not so challenging and it happens widely in industry: people are often heavily restricted in the range of trading they may conduct in cases where their business would give them insider knowledge, such as in certain parts of banks, accounting firms, credit rating agencies etc
- Reminds me of reading Programming Collective Intelligence by Toby Segaran, which inspired me with a range of things, like building search, recommenders, classifiers etc.
- Yes, fuly agree. And enough time has passed with it being robust and performant that the old bores who used to go on about KDE performance have finally given up bleeting on about that.
I wouldn't bash GNOME as clearly plenty of work goes into it and having two decent DE is good for the ecosystem, but for me GNOME never struck a chord compared to the elegance of KDE - it just feels like the Duplo version compared to KDE
- It's wrapping the web version of Teams, so presumably there are few of the issues you suggest because most of the functionality comes from the page and it's just changes that impact the smaller number of Linux integrations that need attention.
- Thank you! Exactly what I wanted to explain.
- A new joiner colleague from another team tried this with me. The script was followed in such a clunky manner I started to wonder if that team had unwittingly hired someone with learning difficulties. Whatever the situation, they didn't benefit because they made a number of poor decisions on the back of the conversation, but I shouldn't write the technique off due to one poor adherent.
- Yes, the overloading of KVM here caught me out too!
- Yes, the context of this seemed pretty hard to figure out from the abstract alone. Opening the PDF I see it's physics related and they have illustrations that seem like some kind of actual physical shape. But I'm still somewhat at a loss what they mean here!
- [Edited] I see you corrected it now!
Previously: I think you mean Dutch citizens, given that the Hague is in the Netherlands and not Switzerland.
- It sounds like you are disappointed by it's not "a lie": more ≠ all.
It's natural that entering markets takes time and that some markets may never be entered if the economics aren't good, even if a company would ideally like to.
- Feels sneaky to claim it's "free" but demand your credentials after you've tried to upload an image

- I find Kagi pretty good - I'm UK based.
I upgraded my phone a few days back and when search defaulted back to Google I realised how worthwhile my subscription is.
It's not all perfect, for instance I would love to figure out how to stop all map searches sticking with them: sorry Google is just lightyears ahead there so I'd always prefer that. But generally they're about the right amount of customisability.
The killer feature for me is being able to bury sites so you never ever get results from them ever again and to slightly bump up/down results for particular reasons (your own, not due to someone else paying an ad placement fee!)
