I’m curious about the decision OpenAI made about making most of the paid stuff free (with usage limits). Unless someone uses it dozens of times a day, it’s not worth $20.

I have two theories about this change. Either they’ve found a better income model because not many people were paying for it already and decided to slowly kill it, or they’re having trouble training GPT-5 and need more data from users and this is the way they’re trying to solve it.

The wildest bag someone recommended from this post is the TomToc Navigator. It's 40L, but only weighs 2.8 lb, has water bottle holders, compression straps, great laptop/iPad compartment, and one massive clamshell bucket for clothes. And it's only $80, which concerningly cheap

If they used X-Pac or a nicer material it could be even lighter and more durable, add in stowable straps, would be an absolute slam dunk

No, you just bought some early-access cyberpunk heist game on Steam because it was on offer and you thought it might be a laugh

Tonight I gave an online workshop to a group of people who were accepted to one of our media incubator programs to develop their projects. And there were five AI meeting assistants on the call instead of those five applicants.

On the one hand I’m really pissed off about their laziness and disrespect. But on the other hand, I’m kinda happy because the assistant doesn’t understand a single word of Turkish and they ended up with bunch of garbage text.

Not sure whether to take this AI description of me as a compliment or an insult. https://search.arc.net/iFhlmAiQqVNgcJ9x76g1

ABD’de TikTok’un engellenmesine sebep olabilecek yasanın yürürlüğe girmesiyle birlikte TikTok için önemli bir geri sayım başladı. Bu hafta @newslabturkey n okuyoruz| bülteninin odağında ABD’nin TikTok takıntısının arkasında yatan motivasyonları ve bunun doğurabileceği sonuçları yazdım.

“Ne Okuduk” bölümünde ise Ghost’un ActivityPub desteği, Google aramalarını kullanılmaz kılan ismin hikâyesi ve daha fazlası var.

I’m doing my best to avoid latest #discourse because people trying to make it a thing have no idea how nonprofits work and as someone who spends most of his working time in or around nonprofits I really don’t have time to explain things to people who clearly have no interest in understanding it.

Saw a review of the Humane AI Pin thingy which is - surprising exactly nobody - basically a glorified proof of concept that doesn't really work and let's user's imagination of what it could be do the heavy lifting.

But what I keep wondering is the voice thing: The interface is basically only speaking to it. And even if that wasn't an issue for people with speech impediments, dialects, loud environments etc. is that really what's gonna be acceptable?

It might make sense if you work from home, alone in your office giving orders. But on a plane? A train? In the supermarket? Do we really think people will actually dictate their messages or tell some device to "add preparation h to the shopping list"?

I think the movie "Her" (and Start Trek TNG) has sold the public on voice as the perfect interface but it's really not for anything besides very rudimentary stuff.

(You don't need to tell me that you use voice commands all the time.)

"I’m told that smoking has declined basically in tandem with the rise of the smartphone. This makes sense. They’re both something to do with your hands in the empty moments, before or afterwards, when you’re waiting for something else to happen. Both of them will also kill you."

Eğer benim gibi NBA fanı biriyseniz Kaan Kural’ın bu serisini kaçırmayın derim. 1980’lerden başlayıp tarihin en önemli anlarını çok güzel bir şekilde derleyip anlatmışlar. Her bölüm su gibi akıyor. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLoVoFW70X9kgDK19hffgDKv2w-oSZmV1P&si=Kh-9vIz3NKyrIeoV

Today I played basketball for the first time after a century. Sure, every part of my body hurts right now but I didn’t know that I missed playing this much.
