wants to use something familiar => does not have cognitive flexibility

It's amazing how people find ways to flaunt their 'superiority'.

I've just used it to send email to my representatives (Croatia). Thanks for the effort.

Alternative for Microsoft Lens

tritiy — Tue, 13 Jan 2026 12:29:46 +0000

Hi, I've just seen that Microsoft will be retiring Microsoft Lens (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/retirement-of-microsoft-lens-fc965de7-499d-4d38-aeae-f6e48271652d). Microsoft recommends OneDrive but are there any alternatives that you can recommend?

I'm using Android.

As for 3d printing there are other software which is simpler if you need to do simpler things. But you can not go wrong in learning Blender for 3d printing as well.

Am I the only one having issues (Win 11)? - Drag/dropping from the Shapes panel does not work every time - I can not delete an object on the page - New page (+ character next to Pages) just clears existing page

Can I report this somewhere?

My guess is the following: Every time you talk with the LLM it starts with random 'state' (working weights) and then it reads the input tokens and predicts the followup. If you were to save the 'state' (intermediate weights) after inputing the prompt but before inputing user input your would be getting the same output of the network which might have a bias or similar which you have now just 'baked in' into the model. In addition, reading the input prompts should be a quick thing ... you are not asking the model to predict the next character until all the input is done ... at which point you do not gain much by saving the state.

My take on this is that the developers are costly. A working hour of single developer costs a lot of money. The organization will always try to get the maximum out of that one hour. Spending more money so that the developers are 'better' is not efficient. They just need to be good enough.

I find the amount of services/products used insane. Is this all handled/known by those mythical full-stack-dev-sec-ops developers?

It does not seem to work on my side. I get a blank canvas with 0 on top left and HI 0 on the top right. Everything else is blank. In developer tools I've noticed that one of the GET on the main.js script is returning 404 so maybe that is the problem?

"The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) is abusing RISC-V to get around U.S. dominance of the intellectual property needed to design chips."

In other words

The article stated that this has nothing to do with it and the click would technically not even be necessary. It is just a way to start the procedure where Turnstile verifies your browser.

While the article is technically correct it avoids the most common issue with 'pure' typescript libraries in that you still need a bundler if you have multiple .ts files. Once you enter that territory you realize how much more complex everything becomes.

I always like to view pricing information first. It usually tells me the scope of the service and roughly gives me an idea if the service will make it or not.

However, there is no pricing information on the page. Where is this information?

Number 6 was really surprising:

SELECT max(salary), first_name, last_name FROM employee;

This returns one row! AFAIK all other databases would return one row per record in the table where first_name, last_name would be from the row while max(salary) would be the value from the row with max salary. Is this SQL ANSI compatible?

I've always considered that you pay extra for the cloud for scalability and security. First one you may not need but the second one is a must.

Was this written by a nnet? I found it so hard to read as if it author has written it in another language and then used some weird translation engine.
