Netflix announced the blockbuster deal with Warner Bros. Discovery on Friday morning. It has agreed to buy the legendary TV and movie studio and assets like the HBO Max streaming service for $72 billion.

 
  • Yesterday, Pebble watch software was ~95% open source. Today, it’s 100% open source. You can download, compile and run all the software you need to use your Pebble. We just published the source code for the new Pebble mobile app!
  • Pebble Appstore now has a publicly available backup and supports multiple feeds, providing long term reliability through decentralization. We’ve launched our own feed and Developer Dashboard.
  • Pebble Time 2 schedule update (aiming to begin shipping in January, with most arriving on wrists in March/April)
  • New Tick Talk episode #4 is up, with Pebble Time 2 demos!

He wasn't going to add compass because most people don't use it, but then he added it to the Core 2 Duo as a favor to a friend who helped on that version and wanted a compass in it.

Is there anything Americans could do to petition other countries to help us? ICC or the UN? Or in civil court, could we crowdfund lawyers to sue the government?

What I'm most looking forward to on a new Pebble:

  • Battery life. With the battery and cpu efficiency improvements in the last 10 years, if the features and other specs stay the same then battery life should be incredible. I think month-long battery is likely possible.
  • Improved voice recognition and AI features. Pebble had voice recognition but it sent everything to a server to process. Now they could run speech-to-text on the watch itself or on the connected phone.
  • More durable buttons. A known issue with the Pebble 2 is eventually the buttons turn to mush.

I wish there was a company like Fairphone or Framework laptops but for TVs.

"Abolish corporate personhood" doesn't go far enough. Abolish corporations. Companies over a certain size should be forced to convert to either a worker-owned co-op or a non-profit organization. Human society needs to evolve past being centered around maximizing shareholder profits.

It's a bug in the dark theme CSS. On the light theme it's a much more subtle highlight.

A scary possibility with AI malware would be a virus that monitors the internet for news articles about itself and modifies its code based on that. Instead of needing to contact a command and control server for the malware author to change its behavior, each agent could independently and automatically change its strategy to evade security researchers.
