I tried this a few months ago after seeing a Youtube video where a guy generated TTRPG miniatures using it. It was okay at the time, but nothing I'd depend on. Seems the author thinks the same.

I don't find that at all. At work, we've no access to the API, so we have to force feed a dozen (or more) documents, code and instruction prompts through the web interface upload interface. The only failures I've ever had in well over 300 sessions were due to connectivity issues, not interface failures.

Context window blowouts? All the time, but never document upload failures.

I'm talking about Gemini in the app and on the web. As well as AI studio. At work we go through Copilot, but there the agentic mode with Gemini isn't the best either.

Honestly this is as Google product as you can get. Prizes for some, beatings for others.

No, SHOULD is defined in the RFC, not by colloquial usage. Google is on the wrong, regardless of their "safety" intent.

After all, linguistics is full with examples of words that are spelled the same, but have different meaning in different cultures. I'm glad the RFC spelled it out it for everyone.

The RFC says a SHOULD is to be treated like a MUST, but well-justified exceptions are allowed.

RFC speak requires you to think for a while about skipping a SHOULD. It doesn't require strong justification.

No it doesnt lmao. It's quoted all over this thread and clearly is not in any way like a MUST

if Google's choices are protecting users, they can't be in the wrong. That's the reality of a shared communications infrastructure regardless of what the docs say.

When the docs disagree with the reality of threat-actor behavior, reality has to win because reality can't be fooled.

Oat fiber. I've been taking 30g of oat fiber everyday for the past 3 years. Slugging it down in 8oz of warm water and 10g of nooch. Not only are my cholesterol levels fantastic after starting that regime, but very regular as well.

fiber is important but the unique cholesterol benefits from oats is around glucans esp. β-glucan

also found in mushrooms, rye, some fruits, pectin, etc.

oat fiber is fine but you'd probably see similar benefits from psyllium husks or other fiber sources.

From personal experience I had half a dozen aunts and uncles (70+) mention the "Google AI thing" on their phones. Rather surprised me.

I've heard it was Sam Altman and OpenAI basically buying every wafer available from both Samsung and SKHynix at the start of October.

Neither company know of the other purchase until it was a done deal.

Kind of funny to see manufacturers get screwed by their own opaque pricing policies for once.

All well and good when you're dictating terms with dozens of buyers, but probably not so much when a single buyer is dictating terms to a couple of sellers.

The CEO of OpenAI and OpenAI didn't coordinate?

Samsung and SK Hynix. OpenAI made deals to buy almost half of manufactured DRAM in the world. There's speculation that after this was announced, other companies started making their own deals in a panic, further driving demand.

> after this was announced, other companies started making their own deals in a panic, further driving demand.

Oh ffs it's like the toilet paper thing. I was amazed how long that continued despite credible sources saying there is no shortage, just insane demand from the loonies that don't believe it would return to normal instantly if they would just stop buying more and more extras because "see, it's out again!"

This is almost certainly what's going on right now in the retail market. OTOH it's also a semi-rational response to volatility and uncertainty as to future wholesale prices, due to, e.g. the projected build-out of future AI datacenters. As with any durable good, whenever the price might be expected to rise in the future, people will want to hoard stockpiles and the expected price rise will be brought forward to the present.

Is DRAM built using the same process/node as GPUs?

"The Support Matrix also shows Cellebrite’s capabilities against Pixel devices running GrapheneOS, with some differences between phones running that operating system and stock Android. Cellebrite does support, for example, Pixel 9 devices BFU. Meanwhile the screenshot indicates Cellebrite cannot unlock Pixel 9 devices running GrapheneOS BFU."

Not surprised at all that an open-source, third party Phone OS is tougher to crack than the Google official version.

Great tool, and incredibly easy to use. Started with it on Linux, and now use on 'doze too.

Probably the singular reason why I finally use regex as the first search option, rather than turning to it after bruting thru a search with standard wildcards.

It’s better than the normal grep, and there’s also the handy rg —-files.
