The @Ubiquiti console could use an built-in UI to help troubleshoot. Claude usually knows how to fix issues, but following each step is time-consuming and error-prone. It should be built right in.

@remilouf I don't, he was an idiot

Most neural nets are still based on the model of a neuron as proposed in the 1950's: u = activation(w·x + b)

In a new paper, researchers propose a more accurate model of a biological brain neuron and found that it has quite a few advantages, like needing less training data.

[Erik van Eykelen @hackteck]

Great training data

Embarrassing iOS regression: the quickest way to update apps is now via the long-press menu, which I'm sure is seldom used let alone discovered by many users. The regular path to updating is 3 taps away in iOS 26!

@_notnotjake @jjpcodes Drop your phone and your identity dies with it. One account somehow needs 3 separate passkeys and you’ll never guess which. Make one on iPhone, try it on Windows, and watch it take a vow of silence. We killed passwords for a key that works in exactly one place, once.

Also in contrast with many other hotels, devoid of enshittification! Staff is friendly and knowledgeable, drinks, dinner, and breakfast are impeccable, rooms and other spaces tasteful and spacious, surroundings (parks, golf) green and calm. Just 💯

@michalmalewicz It's actually a pilot that should not be flying at all due to their incompetence

A math teacher who treated me as a doofus until this "discovery" suddenly was in awe.

The discovery was nothing more than reading the manual.

TRS-80 trick from my school days: PRINT CHR$(23) flipped the screen into 32-column mode and drew every character double-width. Same glyphs, just twice as wide. CLS or CHR$(28) put it back. A
open-day demo was basically that one line plus a scroll loop.

@Masterofwhine Enjoy the moment!
