Back in my day we licked insurance boot and sucked billionaire cock. Who wants to live in a world of affordable healthcare? THE DANGER IS RAEL!

I dunno anyone still using the big 3 telcos, not much value over the MVNOs unless you’re really the type that wants to bundle Disney+ or something.

Someone who’s never been to a state fair’s idea of one, no doubt. And many of the booths are empty, with just a table and a state stamp for the visitor book.

This gif is gonna get a lot of use over the next few years I can feel it.

They’re arresting people who just stopped and touched a piece to inspect it.

He has also designed boats, paddles and other waterproof products, and said he was curious about what materials had been used to paint the pool. The 67-year-old said he only touched the material briefly before he was told by one of the park service workers helping to clean the algae from the pool to stop.

OCR libraries have undoubtedly improved but LLMs are using the same open source libraries and tools available to anyone… there’s few cases where sending the work through general models is worth it for text conversion. Employees just needed a front end to upload, run something like tesseract behind the scenes, and spit out the result. It’s an egregiously stupid use of resources.

I know a company that burned $100k in tokens after they they let like 50 worker bees using general AI for OCR, simply converting images and PDFs to text.

They didn’t bother to create a skill, or teach the AI how to reuse a shared script so every request resulted in it writing a new python project, pulling libraries, using a frontier model rather than offloading a dumb one etc.

Basically find a business process that happens often and let em at it inefficiently, it’ll happily chew through the budget.

The public site is the first impression and introduction of a product, and this one has all sorts of slop signs around it. You can see how that can make someone skeptical to the quality of application. I don’t agree “computers can do it better” - I’d prefer a plain old website that gets to the point over one showing useless graphics, generated text, and non-functional interactions.

I appreciate the candidness. Hopefully you can understand AI presentation generally implies an AI product, and without source code to audit, it raises some flags. Clarity of where AI is used as you’ve done here helps.

You can at least admit the marketing site is AI, yes?

It could use a frame of a scantily clad Melania too. Amateur hour.

I switched to Qobuz, their playlist migration process from spotify was seamless. However, i’m finding the recommendations and discovery lacking, and there’s not any kind of “radio”. On spotify I would just hit play and let it do its thing with Qobuz I have to be much more deliberate in finding music, when an album or playlist ends it just stops playing and it’s back to searching around for what I want to listen to next.

With all that said it’s still a solid option, their catalog is pretty large, they seem to have a lot more genre diversity, anything lossless sounds great, and their editor curated playlists have introduced me to some good music. It’s worth doing a trial run to see if it’s right for you.
