That might be the defense. They are inherently designed to leverage insider trading though. I made a top level comment with links/resources that argues why.
i use comfyui to generate cartoons for some comedians
i also have an n8n pipeline (there is an agent here) that mines social media for certain topics and audio
i also use gemini to transcribe audio from sets and to generate scripts
i am working on a clipmaker because I find opus pro and others to leave out context and audience reactions too often.. i will just upscale in topaz anyways.
i met an associate working for a particular VC and they were really into time series foundational models. I argued the most of the "Why real forecasting problems break the whole frame" as to why they were wasting their time at that time.
she was totally convinced i was wrong because she was discussing investing with some top and well respected researchers that were really pushing this and wanted to make a startup around it.
i was and am still confused as at all the wishful thinking. then again, sometimes the best time to sell an idea is right before you think it is possible.
Yes to both. The embedding is over raw video frames, so anything visible (text, signs, captions) gets captured in the vector. And Gemini Embedding 2 extracts the audio track and embeds it alongside the visual frames. So a query like 'someone yelling' would theoretically match on audio. My dashcam footage doesn't have audio though, so I haven't tested that side yet.
Doing it on the go via the app is much easier than using the web app through the main OS browser just because the UI is optimized. not a problem with using the web app approach, just that there isnt as much investment in it due to zeitgeist i guess.
Also since you are already using 2FA, you are already on the phone so might as well do basic operations there.
I can also look at transactions in my bed before going to bed so that is nice.
If I need to look at a support ticket or look at transactions more deeply, i still use the desktop approach.
I don't think many people would argue that there shouldn't be a mobile app, just that there should also be a website/webapp way to do it as well if you don't want to install their native app.
it is a good thought. hits deep as well. though, i found it a bit troubling the rejection of one's roots because exalting the past could put less emphasis on the present or the future. i don't think that is universal; partly an erasure mindset. but i understand it in context of the article.
I find that it makes sense as a warning not mythologize your roots. It could even be defended that looking for one's root is indistinguishable from mythologizing. It can be a powerful political tool but ultimately it belongs to those most skilled into making it say what they want.
There's always plenty of pushback everywhere, all the social media apps are full of critics and hate on anyone who does anything in the world mercilessly. I like coming here to see people admire other people who worked hard to create something that made society better, and not spend as much time criticizing every little wrong thing they did.
Are you declaring Steve Jobs a God? Did he create all the apps you're addicted to or a wonderful tool that lets you access almost all of humanities history, can connect you with loved ones across the world in real-time, play music, movies, it's a compass, a map, etc. You can use a hammer to create or kill, and you blame the blacksmith for the dead.
You use slave labor everyday, so you don't have much wiggle room to judge.
'Tech hero worship' is a gross misrepresentation of my comment and I'm not sure how you could draw that conclusion from a comment that used words like "asshole" and "vindictive" to describe Steve Jobs.
That might be the defense. They are inherently designed to leverage insider trading though. I made a top level comment with links/resources that argues why.
