You can now talk to Google Photos to make your edits | TechCrunch
Google Photos introduces an "ask to edit" feature that lets you speak or text your edit requests.

@… I edited my previous reply to add: It's a little hard to follow the side-by-side screenshots of what corresponds to what, so I'd recommend separating them and explaining them one at a time, if possible (along with a link to the demo).

Improving Low-Cost Teleoperation: Augmenting GELLO with Force
In this work we extend the low-cost GELLO teleoperation system, initially designed for joint position control, with additional force information. Our first extension is to implement force feedback, allowing users to feel resistance when interacting with the environment. Our second extension is to add force information into the data collection process and training of imitation learning models. We validate our additions by implementing these on a GELLO system with a Franka Panda arm as the follow…

3/4 ⚡ Simple implementation: just add the middleware to your job's middleware() method with target exception classes. Example use case includes #SNS payload processing that fetches users from external systems and stores records locally.

@… Some language servers do this. The Haskell Language Server, for example, will let you add an explicit type annotation for an implicitly typed variable or function. I think I’ve seen this for TypeScript too.
I’m not sure if this answers your question, but I hope it does.

Alright, next step in my #OTEL adventure for @… was to add react/cache|dns|socket so I can trace any potential connection issues. Not sure yet what to do next:
* Event loop
* react/stream
* Just add tests to what you have before adding more

@… wait until they add that big mirror on the north side!

Dropping a new web component today:
Unencumbered <line-numbers> will add line numbers alongside a `<pre>` or `<textarea>` (and updates when input value changes)

@… I have made the decision to simply not bother with floats in the language I’m making.
I think I will eventually add both units and ratios, which should cover most use cases, I think.

@… I really like it! The model I have is 10 yrs old, but I'm still able to install all kinds of open source patches, firmware, plugins, add-ons, etc.
Back when I was in school, I wrote about one of those custom worksflows to manage my readings (I've since stopped using Koreader):

@… "Right now, new subscription sign-ups have slowed to around 1–2 per day – a long way off our target of 2,000"
...
"Add in current subs revenue of around €20k/year"
...
"579 people have stepped up and subscribed. Our target is 2,000"
Anyone who has had any interest in Boards would have signed up right now,…

@… Add “today” to what I wrote ;-)
But I agree.

So halte ich im #Browser meine #MultiColumn-Ansicht clean und sauber:
Wenn eine Spalte gelesen, dann einfach auf den Tropfen drücken und die Spalte ist leer.

@… I’ve been happy with the free tier of https://umami.is/, don’t know if it would work for you though. Was quick and easy to add into my static site generator.

@… thanks for testing! fair point about overscroll, I don’t think there is an `overscroll-behavior` value that makes sense for the component to add though — this seems more like an app-level option

\o/

@… Interesting. I've wondered what would happen if I added a little commercial kefir to my milk and grains mix. Would it add to the microbe mix in the grains? I've been told no, but without any real explanation.

@… thanks.
I didn't want to add more noise in GitHub than I already have … and I'm keeping my distance from Phabricator 🙂

OMFG
"A hacker compromised a version of Amazon’s popular AI coding assistant ‘Q’, added commands that told the software to wipe users’ computers, and then Amazon included the unauthorized update in a public release of the assistant this month"

The wiping commands probably wouldn't have worked, but a hacker who says they wanted to expose Amazon’s AI “security theater” was able to add code to Amazon’s popular ‘Q’ AI assistant for VS Code, which Amazon then pushed out to users.

Adobe rolls out new generative AI features for Photoshop to let users more easily add or remove people and objects, including "Harmonize" compositing, in beta (Jess Weatherbed/The Verge)

Photoshop just made it shockingly easy to edit objects and people into photos
Adobe is launching some new generative AI features for Photoshop that make it easier than ever to convincingly add or remove people and objects in photographs.

@… @… I would like to add “if the steering wheel behaves differently every day, that’s not your fault either”.
Of course, Larry probably wrote this before that particular issue became such a big deal.

@… I would not expect this to work without a few changes first. First step would be an internals change to add an export for Core.js over using Eleventy.js — this skips a lot of the file system stuff

My main concern here is how well this “new” spec be integrated? Will Chrome add support? Will Photoshop, GIMP and other tools support it?
Will end users like us use it day to day by replacing PNG or JPG?
Now don’t get me wrong this is a good thing and it comes with good features but remember JPEG-XL? I can’t stop thinking this is a tall order to popularise the newer version.

Mitsuharu Yamamoto’s Emacs Mac port provides the ‘mac-osa-script’ function, which allows you to use JavaScript to control Mac apps using JavaScript (JXA), in addition to AppleScript.
Some years ago, I made a small package to insert links from Mac apps into Emacs, inspired by grab-mac-link, but simpler, in part due to using JXA.
Today I finally took some time to add documentation. If you use the Emacs Mac port, maybe it’s of interest.

in case i need to ask something outside the context of the reddit-posting or video:
- generate a temporary URL (with the full posting/video transcript)
- call perplexity by URL and add the URL as context
with that, i can ask everything (full context included) that needs a search 😍

@… To add an important side note: In 0.5 the async client uses ReactPHP while the sync client used a howbrew internal event loop. Making them both non-blocking, be it internally only for one of them

Small win of the day: figured out how to add a light / dark mode toggle for the #Publii CMS and static site generator! This is a feature that has been requested many times in the community forums, and a solution now exists! Just a few tweaks right inside the app!
Demo:

Say it with me: LLM's offer next likely token prediction.
If you want to predict likely tokens (E.g., predictive keyboard typing), great!
If you want ANYTHING OTHER THAN NEXT LIKELY TOKEN PREDICTION you don't want an LLM.
No, not even if you add RAG.
No, not even if it's "agentic".
If you want certainty, if you want rule adherence, if you want comprehension of any kind, you don't want an LLM. No matter what OpenAI tells you.
