If you're even interested in doing/building cool things with computers you owe it to yourself to watch @simon's truly outstanding keynote from @pycon. The fact that it only currently has 3K views is a travesty. Yes folks, it's THAT good :)

Even as someone who's been playing with this stuff for a while, I found several really helpful hints around prompt building and the ethics and ramifications of using this stuff in an actual work context.

My MR which implements a new image mounting dialog for #GNOME Disks in #Rust has been merged 🎉

The new dialog allows not only to mount and view disk images, but also to edit, inspect, write or, if the disk image is already mounted, unmount it.

Thanks to @tbernard for the design and to @pothos for the review and help.

Wrote up some notes on trying out Aider, a neat open source Python terminal tool for working with codebases on disk via a variety of LLMs simonwillison.net/2024/Jul/31/…
> /ask what does ?exclude.tag= do in the search feature? The ?exclude.tag= parameter in the search feature is used to exclude specific tags from the search results. Here's how it works in the code: 1 The excluded tags are retrieved from the request's GET parameters: excluded_tags = request.GET.getlist("exclude.tag") This line collects all the tags that should be excluded from the search results. The getlist() method is used because there might be multiple excluded tags. 2 These excluded tags are then applied to the queryset for each content type (Entry, Blogmark, Quotation) in the make_queryset() function:

Most of the research behind these incredible models is open. Even folks at Apple share their findings.
Building on this research, I'm developing free and high-quality TTS models using open-source speech datasets.
I already created the cross platform speech engine called "Sonata", and currently training some English voices for it.
Here's a sample of the very first training run.

Software mívá chyby, tak to prostě je. Je ale třeba před nimi nezavírat oči a postavit se k nim čelem.

Minulý týden vyšla najevo chyba v aplikaci eDoklady. Nic sice přímo nezpůsobila, být tam ale rozhodně neměla. Tým DIA začal obratem pracovat na nápravě a všera, po méně než týdnu, vyšla opravená verze aplikace (1.5.0). Tak to má být!

Děkuji Honzovi Cibulkovi že chybu objevil a také všem, kteří se zasloužili o její rychlou nápravu. @jancibulka @honza

I finally started to fill data in to #OpenStreetMap.
At first I just looked at how several features are already tagged, then slowly started to correct wrong data and then add missing details.
I use #StreetComplete app to add details on walk travels,
#OsmAnd app to add POIs and of course the iD web editor for larger edits.
I am especially impressed by the iD editor. It's so helpfull with clever use of autocomplete and linking to #OSM wiki...
The best reward is 3D view becoming more realistic...

Did you know that you can use the StreetComplete things or stores overlay to add POIs? This saves you having to switch. For even more options, there's also SCEE! github.com/Helium314/SCEE
A more advanced version of StreetComplete where you can edit the raw tags of an object for example and plenty of more quests.

Ty vole ale... main/power button v zapnutom stave nejde, ide keď ich zapnúť. Displej robí také divné veci že je občas celý biely a svieti, potom sa po ňom objavujú také biele svetlé pruhy, po chvíli to prejde. Pri nabíjaní sa občas reštartujú (naposledy sa to nestalo). Displej akoby sa posunul o 0.5mm dole a hore je taká čmuha.

Možno je to tým že sa snimi sprchujem a že som snimi xy krát o niečo treskol.

The article unfortunately leaves out most of the points we made in the thread.

GrapheneOS supports hardware-based attestation and it's entirely possible for Google to allow it as part of the Play Integrity API. They choose to ban using GrapheneOS.


Loss of popular 2FA tool puts security-minded GrapheneOS in a paradox

Losing access to Authy leads to another reckoning with Google's security model.

GrapheneOS

Google can either permit GrapheneOS in the Play Integrity API in the near future via the approach documented at grapheneos.org/articles/attest… or we'll be taking legal action against them and their partners. We've started the process of talking to regulators and they're interested.

Is there any chance we can encourage you to trend #NVIDIA when that's the company you mean, please? I know what their NASDAQ handle is, but #NVDA is much more widely known as the name of the screen reader we make and the #NVDA hashtag is very widely used for the screen reader. It will save both our communities polluting each other's feeds. If you'd like to find out more about the screen reader, our website is nvaccess.org/ - Thank you!
