Interesting that Google and Apple matched their quarterly earnings in revenue .

Still only 256k input tokens/context. Do they not see utility in larger context?

Not available in the UK - this seems quite common with Google lately, why is that?

AVIF is supported on pretty much every modern browser now. Even Safari is adding support for it with the upcoming Safari release.

At this point AVIF vs JPEG XL is a more interesting discussion than anything vs HEIC.

What is the patent situation for JPEG XL vs AVIF?

I'm impressed they've updated their status page so quickly, unlike some of their cloud competitors

Side note: the comments in this are all almost as valuable as the content itself. Remember when comments were a way people used to enhance content rather than attack or degrade it?
yRetsyM commented on Many of the root certificates on Windows are not needed   hexatomium.github.io/2020... · Posted by u/svenfaw

" Windows trusts 322 root certificates issued by 122 different organizations"

I think this is a good point I would never trust 122 people in my life with my bank-account details. But if I trust my browser it seems that is exactly what I'm doing.

Isn't there a better way?

You do trust one company with thousands of employees though, there's layers/levels of trust on this
yRetsyM commented on TikTok has recently traded at valuations of $105-110B on private markets   bloomberg.com/news/articl... · Posted by u/LogicRiver

I really can't fathom how this is possible. The largely young demographic (which I'm guessing warrants this valuation) has a track record of jumping from platform to platform, whichever is trendy for a given year.

With that in mind, how are investors seriously willing to get behind this company in such a big way?

Wasn't the same said about Facebook?
yRetsyM commented on Gitlab was down   status.gitlab.com/... · Posted by u/vickyonit
yRetsyM · 6 years ago
There has been a theme of instability with Gitlab.com over the last week or two. I'm not sure if it's growth related (they've seen a steady increase of users/traffic) and they've reached a scaling peak. OR if it's technically related - they've been doing a number of different infrastructure changes over the last few weeks which make a material difference to the main layers of the service.

For me the real test here is how they respond to this. As a paying customer I want to understand the issue, the efforts to prevent this in future and how they communicate this.
