When will #F1 learn that "It is like Monaco but different" is only ever a good thing if "but different" translates to "but with overtakes"? #SpanishGP

I didn't trust FIA's lack of transparency about ADUO... so we analysed the data from the WHOLE SEASON and wrote a paper detailing the process! 🤩 🗒️Key points: -Mercedes: +7.3 hp vs RBPT -ADUO upgrades: Ferrari gained 9.6 hp (1/5 of its deficit), Audi 7.6 hp, Honda 11.4 hp Full article! 👇

If you're an artist or developer in the #XR or immersive experience space, please create builds of your work. It's staggering to see how many public experiences rely on someone starting Unity/Unreal and hitting play. It just looks bad and risks losing a ton of performance to in-editor overhead.

This formula is just the worst. That awesome overtake? Oh, the guy in front just had no charge. Will he come back though? Who knows because for obvious reasons we don't get to see the battery state. What is their strategy? Who the F knows. "But look at all the overtakes!" Myeahhhh #F1 #BritishGP

Today Microsoft moved all its GitHub copilot subscribers to token-based billing. If you want to see what happens when people have to pay the actual costs of AI, the day is finally here. It's obvious that every customer sees the deep, meaningful value and isn't angry at all.

This is hilarious. For context I used the Copilot Orchestrator that has Condutor, Planning, Implementator and Code review agents. But with the new "usage based pricing", seems like this is not an ideal setup anymore?
Anyone has the same experience here? I am on Copilot Prot. This is so expensive.r/GithubCopilot • 6h ago

First day of the new pricing model, I tried one prompt to just refine one of my existing change proposal, basically a conductor with few sub agents to update the existing change spec, architecture, test plan, prototype, tech spec and implementation plan.
About 20-30 mins task, ends up burning 16% of my monthly credits in one shot.

For some reason the guy deleted his post, I suspect because of the thousands of notifications, but for the daytime crowd here's this. Windows is feeding everything you type to AI. Checked myself, several FFXIV and WoW guildies confirmed it's there and turned on by default. Go turn it off.
A screencap of Windows 11 settings, down the Time & Language > Typing > Typing Insights branch where Windows 10 & 11 have "Typing Insights" toggled on as default. The text says "Windows is using artificial intelligence to help you type" and absolutely the hell not, turn that shit off right now.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I kinda miss DRS as the one gimmick, for the simple fact that a performance difference was immediately visible. With the current battery gimmicks I have no clue who is about to attack whom, and it feels just as artificial. #f1 #miamigp

This is so, so well-articulated.
People call this friction "grunt work." Schwartz uses exactly that phrase, and he's right that LLMs can remove it. What he doesn't say, because he already has decades of hard-won intuition and doesn't need the grunt work anymore, is that for someone who doesn't yet have that intuition, the grunt work is the work. The boring parts and the important parts are tangled together in a way that you can't separate in advance. You don't know which afternoon of debugging was the one that taught you something fundamental about your data until three years later, when you're working on a completely different problem and the insight surfaces. Serendipity doesn't come from efficiency. It comes from spending time in the space where the problem lives, getting your hands dirty, making mistakes that nobody asked you to make and learning things nobody assigned you to learn.

The peace president. Cartoon for Dutch newspaper @trouw.nl. #Trump #Iran #BoardOfPeace #FifaPeacePrize
Cartoon showing a hallway in the White House. A gold-painted trophy cabinet has an ornate top with the name 'Donald J. Trump', a dove of peace and a crown above it. In the cabinet, we see the FIFA Peace Prize, a frame with the logo of the Board of Peace with the image of Donald Trump and the text 'Chairman for Life', and a display case with the label 'Reserved for Nobel Peace Prize'. Next to the cabinet is an open doorway with a sign 'Department of War'. Through the doorway, we see a war room with Trump, pushing a big red button and looking up at a big screen that has the map of Iran with a big target projected over it. A general offers him a McDonald's meal on a silver platter.
