@Baconbrix @expo Very cool, I could see this being really useful for disposable environments in CI/CD for perf testing and e2e testing.

@ethanniser @v0 Seriously can't tell if this is a joke or not.

[Brett Adcock @adcock_brett]

A ton of AI and Robotics developments this week.

Big announcements from UCSD, Kyutai, Figure, Meta, Salesforce, Amazon, Adept, Runway, Sanctuary AI, Apple, OpenAI, and Clone Robotics.

Here's everything that happened and how to make sense out of it:

[Ed Jackson @madjack443]

Greatness is fleeting. Two days ago we were talking about how he was giving a 🐐level performance. Today he’s pulled after 28 minutes.

I feel bad for the guy. But that’s the playoffs.

[Ed Jackson @madjack443]

This basically sums up #FLAvsEDM Sergei Bobrovsky out after letting in 5/17 in 28 minutes of play.

[Ed Jackson @madjack443]

@fireship_dev I vote hugging face because it’s really the GitHub for open source AI. One of the best positioned companies in the AI hype cycle.

@LevineJonathan “Without a single meaningful impact on product”

[Ed Jackson @madjack443]

@bentlegen I’m that’s enough internet for me today.

[Ed Jackson @madjack443]

@mattpocockuk It’s a nice idea, but with how infrequently tsconfig is updated, I feel like this might end up being a solution in search of a problem. It might only be useful on the first commit, and the rest you’ll just manually update. At this point just copying from GH is gonna be fine.

[Ed Jackson @madjack443]

@whitep4nth3r A year ago I was like “sure I’ll try warp” never put it down. It’s pretty essential for me now.

@bballbreakdown He knees were bent like 60+ degrees here. I get the alarm, but that’s not the stuff that will get him.

His brash rough and tumble, leaning tower of Pisa, routine around the rim is more troublesome imho.

Time for Canadians to start getting acquainted with news readers and RSS feeds.

[CPAC @CPAC_TV]

"Facebook has decided to be unreasonable, irresponsible and started blocking news," says Heritage Min. Pablo Rodriguez as he announces the suspension of federal government advertising on Facebook & Instagram, a response to Meta blocking news due to the Online News Act.

[Jesse Brown @JesseBrown]

So when Google says they will block ALL Canadian news due to C-18, what does that mean?

Which sites will they consider "Canadian news" and which will they not?

If a news site CHOOSES to not apply for government status, are they exempt?

Nope.

Here's what Google told me. 1/4

@LehkonenArturri @PierreVLeBrun 🙈

[Ed Jackson @madjack443]

@github Truly one of the best features you guys have implemented.

[Ed Jackson @madjack443]

Round 2:

Go to any GitHub repo
Hit the “period” key
Voila!
Opens the repo in https://t.co/Lmx8Tzlc67

[Kevin Fischer @kevinafischer]

My mind is blown 🤯🤯🤯

go to any github repo but use https://t.co/gVeKJkKfGG instead of https://t.co/PHQ162gDwH

it's now VS code IN BROWSER

[Ed Jackson @madjack443]

Round 3:

Now repeat on a pull request to view the changes in their full context!

You can even comment and submit a whole code review this way.

[Ed Jackson @madjack443]

@dustinkrueger85 @ask_aubry While that is a good way to be in general, I don’t think this guy fits that description.
