There is no lack of competition. They are just bad in obvious ways. I’m not saying it’s easy to take on a giant like Steam, but Epic for example is exactly the kind of company and amount of money that could. They didn’t, and it’s not because of the library effect. They simply went with the seemingly easiest way: pissing money on the problem (securing timed exclusives and free games). There is so much they could do to make the client and their service better, but they don’t. So no, it’s not a monopoly.
A “de-facto” monopoly is not a monopoly. Competitors basically refused to innovate their stores beyond the MVP despite users pointing out the missing features. Epic pissed away a lot of money to buy traffic and then never did anything to keep it.
Yeah it’s a struggle. But it gets easier. It might help to break the ice if you start asking people for portraits. In general, people might ask where pictures might show up, so it helps if you have a good answer for that (regardless of candid shot or not).
50mm is generally a little tight for classic street photography, but it’s fine to get started (27 to 35mm is the sweet spot). People will argue endlessly what counts as street photography, even though it has a clear definition: candid moments on the street involving people. A cityscape or car is not street. Two people laughing at each other is street. A closeup of an interesting face is street. A person aware of being photographed, posing for the camera, shot with a blurry background is a street portrait. Get close (your 50mm makes this a bit more comfortable, but you get a different look). You generally want at least f/5.6, but ideally tighter aperture so you get most things sharp. Good luck!
Oh, it “wasn’t made clear” SUUURE. Addressing a blowback could be way better if you admitted a mistake instead of gaslighting your users. Not the way to earn back lost trust.
There is no mention of that being the case (or otherwise). But the fact that the author is clearly explaining they don’t have data loss, they have more or less bricked devices makes it seem like this is a bad faith argument.
I love all kinds of soup and it’s the one type of meal where I can truly go insane with the amount of hot sauce I put in it. An amount that would probably make these soup-hating boys cry.
I’m sure they have all the heuristics in Cloudflare cranked up due to all programming model training aggressively digesting their content. Can’t blame them, honestly.
I think pythonic is more important than performance and I would still choose that version over a try-catch block, were it slower. Being pythonic means it represents a commonly understood pattern in Python code, therefore it is more efficient in communicating intent.
Apart from the quote from the zen of python, does this really make your code better though? You will end up writing 4-5 lines with an extra level of indentation. The code does the same, but has worse performance and communicates the intent poorly (compared to the “pythonic” version).
Of course he’s not changing his stance. Doing so would be admitting that his child died as a direct consequence of his own actions. He will forever be anti-vax from now on, even if his life depends on it.
The weirdest thing about switching to kagi was learning that the first few results have a good chance of being relevant. I got so used to scrolling down after a search. It was just weird to have the useful results on top. Similarly, learning that search syntax is actually meaningful and respected by the search engine (for the majority of cases).
It is also absolutely 100% BS investor-bait. At this point it should be obvious that we have reached just about the peak of what LLMs can do. And it’s notably not Google’s Gemini even - other models are generally better. For AGI to be feasible, there should be a paradigm shift, which is not a function of more work hours.

I guarantee they do have a red team that most likely flagged this as an obvious and severe risk. It was ignored by suits experiencing AI psychosis.
sudo-rs is not a fork.

They have backups, that’s not the point. https://hey.paris/posts/appleid/

There is no way Google would sell Chrome. But you can bet at least a thousand engineers are working on bolting Gemini onto it right now.

Imagine being literally the richest man on earth and using your influence to delete mean comments that people wrote about you on the internet.
Have you read the comment you are replying to, be honest
“Now”? Try 10 years ago, at the very least.
