if i don't write "use podman instead of docker" it will go on journey to install docker. so there is some use for it.

i don't get why they are investing money on image/video gen. All generations i have see looked blurry, lacking in fine details and missing the artistic touch (lacks meaning? lifeless?)

> why they are investing money

Maybe they presume that after a series of "good enough to some" they may be getting near the Real Thing?

This part fires me up to create art for arts sake:

Kodama: That’s also partly why this development was a lot of fun, I think: we (the developers) started the project on our own initiative, and many people on the team had worked on PSII and were able to address the shortcomings and unfinished ideas they had from that game in PSIV.

Crashes too frequently for me. Needs a reboot to fix only to be crashed again few hours later. I never found a solution; likely related to docker/podman being memory hungry.

Port handling requires constant Powershell maintenance too.

6(ax) works on 2.4GHz too.

sign... another ai written article. are we already living in the dead internet? hackernews is filled with ai written blog posts.

i saw that no one actually make this information publicly available, so i did it myself. hopefully it helps someone.

8gb ram is criminal. For $100 more Air is the one to buy.

That's called "Apple price ladder". Basically pushing consumer in small increments up the range of products with " but with just $$amount you can get X product with 2*Y of Z!" until consumer hits their limit instead of buying the cheapest working option.

how much money I have lost to this damn ladder

The newest entry-level Air is $1100, this is $600, or $500 difference. It's significant.

Apple released the M1 MBA for $999 and it was considered insane value, and it had 8GB of RAM as well.

I don't think it's criminal, sufficient for plenty of casual users. Of course not for everyone.

I agree. Especially now, with the insane RAM prices.

Where is a $699 Air available?

This is very impressive. Google really is ahead

They are definitely ahead in multi modality and I'd argue they have been for a long time. Their image understanding was already great, when their core LLM was still terrible.

AWS has been the backbone of the internet. It is single point of failure most websites.

Other hosting services like Vercel, package managers like npm, even the docker registeries are down because of it.
