Of the changes made last week to the license, this one stands out:

10. None of the Work may be used in any form as part, or whole, of an integration, plugin or app that integrates with Atlassian's Confluence or Jira products.

That is a weird carve-out, so I'd guess the license revision (and technically the reason it's no longer open source) somehow has to do with Atlassian or their plugin marketplace?

Feel like the (totally impractical) fediverse end-game would be for each individual to have their own activitypub service, and federation happening on a person-by-person basis. So you retain some control over anything you publish, and your history is yours to keep.

As others have said, changing UPS batteries is required maintenance, and I agree 18-24 months is the typical service life for even high-end UPSs. However, you may want to look into LiFePO4 based UPSs, which can handle many more charge-discharge cycles and often have 5-year warranties. More expensive and potentially not as recyclable as lead acid batteries, but maybe appropriate for your use case.

When did we get away from saying “X - formerly known as Twitter” ? I liked seeing that gentle nudge in every headline.

Investors who don’t bother reading past the letters A and I in the prospectus.

How is Worldcoin still a thing?

Maybe true, but even at $3500 the Vision Pro would be about the cheapest thing in the operating theater anyway.

Are you looking for a tool that can diff legal documents line by line or clause by clause? If the latter I’d bet an LLM with a large context size could do a pretty good job, especially if you used a script (or another pass through the LLM) to break them down into like sections so that could just compare e.g. all Controlling Law sections with each other and all IP Indemnification sections with each other.

Now that I think about it, tuning the prompt (and keeping the temperature very low, like 0) you could probably get it to return everything from proper diffs to summaries of conceptual differences. And it could definitely do multiples at once if you were to break them into like pieces ahead of time.

Mine's more like an LLM - exposed to a vast quantity of technical terms that they don't really understand, but can mash them together well enough to make coherent-sounding statements in JIRA

The headline’s a bit misleading. The drive is a plasma thruster, and the company found that by adding Boronated water to the exhaust the plasma would fuse with some of the boron creating a kind of afterburner effect, not a sustained fusion reaction. It’s kind of interesting as a way to boost the performance of the plasma thruster, but not “OMG it’s a Fusion Drive!!!” interesting.

ugh. sorry to say that took me a minute...

It’s actually 1.58bits weirdly. The addition of 0 here was the significant change/improvement in this experiment. The paper isn’t too dense and has some decent tables that explain things fairly accessibly.
