This is amazing. AI can chain together a few existing tools to do full 3D segmentation on all objects in a photo, and make a fully interactive game-style environment from it github.com/neilsonnn/im...

Yep. Or call ahead, look at a map, ask someone. Ultimately, build a map and sense in your head. It was pretty awesome. Underrated skill. I still do this at times for practice.

The US tech sector continues bleeding jobs in official data released today—overall, employment decreased by 17k last month and is down 69k over the last year That's nearly as bad as the worst of the 2024 tech-cession, and much worse than the 2022 boom or even pre-2020 norms

NEW: An iPhone hacking company claims it can freeze the iPhone in a state that makes it easier for cops to access data. The iPhone has an automatic reboot feature that reverts the device to a state where data is harder to extract. This would defeat that feature. www.404media.co/cops-can-byp...

Cops Can Bypass iPhone’s Automatic Reboot to Get Into Locked Phones, Leaked Video Claims

Magent Forensics, the owner of the GrayKey phone unlocking tool, says it can bypass an iPhone rebooting feature that was locking cops out.

Me in my 20s, though nowhere near this extent. I got pretty good at needle-hopping tracks to gauge quality quickly. I can smell the records in this video. What a joy to be able to make a living doing this.

There is so much disinformation about the "Super El Nino" floating around the internet b/c mentioning any sort of mechanism that affects weather seems to start a shouting match. So here's a good video that gives you JUST the info you need in under 2 minutes.

Exactly this. Of all the terrible things the man and his brood have done for over a decade now, our hopes rest on their own incompetence and economic downturns, not a moral awakening. That speaks to something widespread and fundamentally damaged — with no quick or easy fixes.

I really hated using Opus for design, but allowing Fable to handle the orchestration with Opus 5.5 doing the work via subagent is working out nicely thus far.
