"Write code for the web" by Manav Rathi https://mrmr.io/apple

This is from an iOS developer, but as an Android developer, I came to basically the same conclusion 10 years ago. The web isn't perfect, but it's a near-universal platform not owned by anybody.

Write code for the web

Apple doesn't need developers

They won't stop being greedy out of guilt or shame.

Was the only woman on a panel at a USPTO roundtable just now. The men were all left to drone on.

I'm the only one who the moderator shushed.

"A staggering number of young people have sworn to me, “I would never touch fentanyl. I would never use fentanyl. I’m doing Percocet. I know this because this guy I bought them from is a friend of mine. He would never betray me like that. He would never deceive me.”

Then they come up negative on the regular drug screen, but the expanded comprehensive test shows nothing but fentanyl.

Parents need to remember the standard drug test at the doctor’s office, the one that lets them say, “Oh, no opioids, we’re fine,” is a test that doesn’t pick up fentanyl."

you ever just, think about the refractive error of your cat's eyes 😌
A statement from Russia's air transport regulator says they've opened a criminal case regarding the downed aircraft, for violating air traffic safety rules. Against whom, exactly? I dunno. Everyone onboard is, likely, dead.
@minimaxir Great article! But as you write “I’m actually not 100% sure what’s going on here.” Id just underscore this method probably makes biases in SDXL even more pronounced. Maybe another round of negative LoRA could somehow resolve that though? Somewhere in the middle of Always and Never. Cheers  https://minimaxir.com/2023/08/stable-diffusion-xl-wrong/
