The tmux usage referenced at the end of the article was fascinating to watch. I’d never considered using tmux as a way of getting more insight into how an agent is working through a problem. Or to watch it debug something

Unrelated but I really enjoyed the wavy text effect on “opinions” in the first paragraph
If I remember correctly, that time point in those double episodes was a turning point in Start Trek lore that changed Earth's history for the better.
It was a turning point, but Star Trek lore also had Earth go through World War III before things actually got better
I think this is neat, but only in a Rube Goldberg machine sort of way. The instructions are:
1. Open the scale
2. Rest your finger on the trackpad
3. While mainting finger contact, put your object on the trackpad
4. Try and put as little pressure on the trackpad while still maintaining contact. This is the weight of your object
That is, the pressure sensors only work if it detects capacitance, so you need to be touching the track pad (but not too much!!) while weighing something.
Sometimes you can get capacitance to be detected if you hover your finger just millimeters over the trackpad

A protocol is like the line at Subway where an api is a bar & restaurant.
Sorry, I don’t understand this analogy

I wish more things were protocols instead of APIs.
Could you explain the difference?

The folks at SaySomethingIn, that originally started with Welsh and other Celtic languages, have recently expanded to Japanese. I haven’t tried it myself, but I’ve found some decent success with one of their other courses. It’s all about spaced repetition and focuses exclusively on listening and speaking.
I'm quite surprised that they use a secure exclave to control the physical camera LED - this is absolutely massive overengineering to do something very simple.
A tiny bit of hardwired dedicated logic integrated into the camera module would be more than adequate to do this - just gating of either the digital I/O or the power to the camera, and a pulse-stretcher so the LED goes on for at least a few seconds each time to prevent an attack by rapidly flicking the camera logic on and off.
A similar circuit for the microphone with a different-coloured physical LED - not just a software-controlled dot on the screen - would be a good idea too.
I think it’s not just the camera LED, but the indicators that appear on screen, like the amber, green, or blue dots that appear in the menu bar when the microphone, camera, or screen recording are accessed by apps.
- Amazon finally adds a feature that has been standard since 2005
- Texas accidentally does something good for privacy
Would it possible to add a feature where hovering over a title displays the original title?
