This quote summarizes so well one of the main reasons why I've been building my own software stack(s) for the past ~20 years:

“If you don’t develop your own technology, you will need to adapt to the language and patterns of the technology someone else developed – maybe in contradiction to your cultural values”. — Gualter Barbas Babtista

Gotta love all the folks in my YT comments acting like making a wearable display is SO easy. Nothing is worth buying until it's like magic star trek tech, that is completely portable, wireless, has micro-batteries, lasts for a week on a charge, and is a fully rendered interactive AR experience.

Meanwhile over at Microsoft...

My workaround for Samsung Watch 5 exercise tracking, using a Polar H10 Chest Strap

Well, this has been quite an experience over the last 3 months! My Samsung Watch 5 started out in the end of December working perfectly and tracking all my exercises quite correctly from the first minute onwards, during the first month. But by the end of Jan ...continues

High salaries in tech are over forever and tech workers are freaking out. Layoffs, downsizing and recession fears are creating a climate where salary reductions are easy to justify. So in the recent poll cited in this article, 51% of the 14k respondents said they thought the days of ultra high salaries are over forever. Sounds about right to me. Industrial sectors, and tech is such a sector, have lifecycles - they progress through stages that is to say. The endless VC $$ and high salary stage is now behind us. And that’s very likely where it belongs. #tech #Technology #labor #HR #recruiting #salary https://www.businessinsider.com/tech-workers-freak-out-blind-end-of-high-salaries-pay-2023-4

Let's not beat around the bush. This is the best price-to-performance available for an Android tablet out now.
It's so much fun getting some GOOD competition!

If you are into the intersection of , and (and everything in between), my recommendation is to follow @skrishna (host of PBS's FAR OUT).

I particularly enjoy Swapna's TikTok and I recommend checking that out too, if you are there: https://www.tiktok.com/@swapna_krishna

Swapna's work is insightful, inspiring and always engaging... featuring highly-digestible tidbits of information on topics that I seldom knew even existed.

Great stuff.

NYC's transport authority will no longer post service alerts on Twitter

They said paying Twitter $50,000 a month for API access wouldn't be the best use of resources.

Unrecord is a new tactical shooter FPS game on Unreal Engine 5 which looks just like real life

The game is so realistic looking that the lead dev reissued footage showing that it is actually running inside Unreal Engine Editor, as many sceptics thought it was real video footage that had been filtered.

The realism is not only due to the graphics qual ...continues

Trying to decide something.
I have a 9th gen iPad but I almost never use it.
Have you owned an ipad and promptly gotten rid of it? Why?
Do you currently own an iPad and an iPhone, if so how much do you use your iPad?

I guess what I don't understand, why does AI have to look like magic omnipotence? We put in a question, and this software spits out an answer based on the data it's leeched off of other sources.
Why isn't there an expectation that an AI will cite it's sources like a wiki article?

How can people spot fake images created by artificial intelligence?

Tech companies are in a race to roll out AI chatbots and other tools. As technology gets better at faking reality, there are big questions over how to regulate it.

    "Tell me a story where a lack of encryption costs an organization money"

    IDK, How about tell me a story where a lack of locks on doors costs a homeowner money.

    As a former investment company employee, I can't believe this guy was hired to be anywhere near information security.
