I solved this for my Brother HL-2270DW by using a powerline adapter. this is pretty cool too.
You can convert any USB-only printer to AirPrint using a cheap ESP32-S3 😉 No Raspberry Pi required!

There is a book about it ("In Praise of Shadows")
I love how the Japanese do lighting. It seems like everywhere you go, it's low and warm lighting. It's pleasant.

To paraphrase Letorneau, inventor of diesel construction machinery, AI is not to make small jobs easy, it's to make large jobs small.
网景创始人 、硅谷顶级投资人Marc Andreessen 在访谈里坦言,他看到了科技史上最可怕的一道认知鸿沟, 传统巨头以为 AI 只是个降本增效的插件,而新一代 AI 原生团队,正在用完全非人的组织效率掀翻整个商业版图。 当年写出网景浏览器、见证了整个互联网三十年兴衰的 Marc Andreessen,坐在 Ben Horowitz 面前直接发出了感慨, 如果 1994 年我们做 Netscape 的时候就有今天这种 AI 工具,那简直不可想象。 现在绝大多数传统巨头和现有企业,依然在用改良软件的旧思维去看待大模型。 在他们的组织逻辑里,AI 只是一个高级功能,用来给现有业务做个插件、在钉钉里加个智能助手、或者把客服团队砍掉 20% 省点成本。 他们以为自己在拥抱变革,其实只是在给老旧的蒸汽机打补丁。 但真正恐怖的事情,正在那些刚成立的 AI 原生团队里发生。 那些创始人对 AI 能力的理解,跟大厂完全不在同一个平行宇宙。 他们每周都在看着底层技术飞速进化,而且他们压根不会把自己定义成一家软件公司、硬件公司、甚至是一家 AI 公司。 以前创办一家公司,你的组织架构是按人类的协同瓶颈搭出来的: 招产品经理写文档、招工程师写代码、招法务改合同、招运营做投放。 因为人类的脑力带宽有限,所以必须靠庞大的部门和管理层级来支撑业务。 而真正的 AI 原生物种,是用机器智能作为最底层的骨架。 两个人加上一整套自动化 Agent,可以直接把从市场洞察、软件工程、全栈设计到商业销售的链路全部跑通。 他们不是在效率上快了 30%,他们是在组织形态上彻底跨越了一个物种。 大厂的盲区,从来不是买不起算力,而是他们无法理解组织本身才是最大的负债。 当现有企业还在开会讨论如何把 AI 塞进现有的业务流程时,新一代的野蛮人正在用完全超越行业界限的方式,把传统的业务流程连根拔起。 未来拉开人与人、公司与公司之间差距的,根本不是你用了哪个模型,而是你到底是在用新工具维持旧世界的体面,还是用新世界的底层逻辑,重新定义了自己能做的事情。

How I look at that vada after the morning walk.
My friend Muruka looks at the menu says: “Who called it ‘Mini Vada’ and not sisu-bala vadai”

Yawn.. next.
3-year degrees are gaining momentum. NYU President Linda Mills: “Universities are due for another evolution: offering 90-credit, three-year bachelor’s degrees in fields that demand immediate workforce development.” “Four years of college is not an inviolable standard.”

Never seen a more flagrant and violent breach of privacy in my life, and probably never will. Doubtful that a privacy violation will ever even be able to compare to the scale of this evil and deliberate attack. Samsung should be eviscerated for this. Criminal charges please
turns out it classifies what audio it hears, before reporting back to samsung. sensor preferences, dog-barking and baby-crying event counters, and camera streaming duration are built into telemetry paths.

A “security expert” guy in a button down shirt saying he doesn’t know PHP.. if it was a guy in a suite saying that, I get it.. What are we even doing here?
BBC: Hablaremos con nuestro experto en seguridad de BBC respecto a la vulnerabilidad de PHP. El experto en seguridad: No sabía que PHP existía hasta ayer en la mañana.

I wonder if it makes sense for a new programming language promoters challenging incumbents should finetune and ship a small coding model that can run on “biggish” laptop.
The first independent benchmark featuring Goose is out, making it 42% faster than the next fastest languages (C and Rust) across 50 real world inspired tasks: kostya.github.io/LangArena/#…

It is good that the youngest children go first at recitals, you get to relive your own personal growth over the years sitting through all your kids’ performances 😂😝

It pains me to admit but Android fans were right. It was always Samsung, not Apple that was truly listening to their customers all the time.
finally found a company that truly listens to its customers
