Ugh this morning I found cat barf on the floor AND I had to block a domain full of Nazis. Let’s hope the rest of the day is nicer.

@daniel sounds to me as if the cat knew..

Any recommendations on office screens for MacBooks that are not the Apple Studio Display?

My criteria:

  • USB-C or Thunderbolt
  • 60W charging minimum
  • Minimum 4K (non-Retina is not an option)
  • as much DisplayP3 as possible
  • Needs USB ports that are capable of keeping an iPad powered
  • Camera and LAN optional, but welcome.

@gernot I like the HP z27k, but it’s really not the best choice color-wise

neuronenstern,
@neuronenstern@mas.to avatar

@gurkendoktor @gernot that sounds like a bug. Mine does definitely charge with more than 15 Watts.

Just got introduced (by @dave ) to the idea that the uncanny valley now no longer only applies to images of humans but also to written text, and I so feel it!!

@daniel @dave haven’t thought about it, but yes, that makes total sense.

We're going to Disneyland Paris this weekend 🪄✨
Any tips for a first timer with a 2 year old?

neuronenstern,
@neuronenstern@mas.to avatar

@rafa with 2 years your child is a bit young, but definitely enjoy the scenery, the parade, go for the „storybook canal boats“ and „it’s a small world“

neuronenstern,
@neuronenstern@mas.to avatar

@rafa small follow-up: storybook canal boats are being refurbished right now 🥲. But I’m going to give you one extra tip most people don’t know: in Paris (and only in Paris) there is an animatronic dragon underneath the castle and it’s amazing! Maybe a bit too scary for your kid, though.. https://www.disneylandparis.com/en-usd/attractions/disneyland-park/la-taniere-du-dragon/

ICYMI: Eln Msk decided to push the "Full Self-Driving Capability" feature to all Tesla owners for a free 1-month trial (normally a $12,000 add-on). It's automatically installed and enabled starting today. Just a heads up that you may want to be extra wary of any Tesla you see on the road this month, as the driver may be using this feature without understanding its limitations or requirements (constant, hyper-attentive supervision).

@pbg this is really reckless, dangerous and probably just a push to generate a bit more training data and revenue for a platform that is not really a viable product… Beta-Testing should be a low stakes and opt-in (and not endanger others who do not participate)

The cool thing about and + releasing copies of each other's series is that when one makes a series, we also get a second sci-fi series 🤩. Bonus points when one chooses to use their "filmed in the EU" quota for it. It's a win-in :) 🍿

The size guide in Crouton on visionOS is quite fun. Get a quick visual on how big a dish or tray should be 😊 just look at the measurement and tap!

@JustMeDevin that might be also fun to have on the iOS version. But it’s so much less friction on visionOS.

Today I tried to repair a piece of technology and for the first time I utterly destroyed it while doing so. Not a great feeling 😞 , but damn these Apple watches are delicate…

@JustMeDevin I love crouton and only now I really discovered the hands-free cooking feature ❤️. Also, I am so happy that you get some good PR from your Vision Pro efforts, keep up the fanstastic work! One thing that puzzles me is that scrolling through my personal recipe library sometimes is a teeny-tiny bit laggy and then again, the next time I’m in the view it isn’t anymore.. did I maybe attach photos that are too large to my recipes?

“Can Vision Pro replace the Mac?” is the new “Can iPad Pro replace the Mac?”

@lapcatsoftware true, but Vision Pro could maybe replace the iPad for some people 😅

Quick sketch of macOS with visionOS styling. What do you think?

neuronenstern,
@neuronenstern@mas.to avatar

@sdw hm, not my cup of tea,… but looks nice for a quick sketch. To be honest, I am not the biggest fan of the vision os style in general.. for example I feel all of the windows are too gray, and everything would benefit from more contrast

Sigh.. I should have prepared the virtual computer BEFORE the new version of KSP2 came out… been staring at loading screens for an hour and I haven’t even been able to download the game

neuronenstern,
@neuronenstern@mas.to avatar

@daniel that reminds me that I wanted to ask you whether you already tried running KSP2 with whisky/gameportingtoolkit(?)

neuronenstern,
@neuronenstern@mas.to avatar

@daniel GPTK or KSP? I mean maybe both 😝😂

@BasicAppleGuy I played around with one of your wallpapers, b/c I really think it could use a dark-version; but I don't have the same artistic abilities as you have, so its basically just an inversion with some color tweaking, but it removes some strain on my eyes in the evening 😀

This is brought to you by our Reinforcement Learning homework in which we were asked to implement the SAC algorithm. Something tells me this was not the ideal choice for literally the first Reinforcement Learning assignment given to students. 🫠

@chrisoffner3d really, the first exercise? This could be very well the last exercise of a RL course depending on how you structure it..

505 of 770 employees at OpenAI tell the board to resign, including Ilya Sutskever ( on the list) who apparently led the whole mutiny. 😅
