Hey @Apple buy this so you can finally have dictation that isn’t the biggest disappointment since Siri
I didn't believe it until I saw it: but it *really* works in open offices! This is ML engineer Menoua at @WisprFlow HQ, coding... by whispering into his mic (a BOYA Gooseneck that costs ~$70). I was standing next to him and heard nothing. Everyone in the office does the same

Been a fun journey to make sure the code loads, for example my icon was too big at 50kb, which cause a crash, so 5kb now works. Then debugging it is also a task too. Right now it connects to API and saves data to a local json cache file, which i think is too big too :(

This years @githubuniverse badge is epic. A hackable dual-core ARM Cortex-M33 running micropython. Thanks to jetlag and being wide awake at 2am, I set about creating my own app: a simple ransomware tracker

Given all the layoffs happening in the US right now, I worry too many people are taking this literally

‼️ An AI gun detection system, @Omnilert, flagged a teen holding a bag of chips as a gunman. "I was holding a Doritos bag with two hands and one finger out, and they thought it was a gun." "Eight cop cars pulled up. They approached me with guns, shouting, 'Get on the ground,'

Meet the Secure Extension Marketplace: it works just like the extension stores you know (Chrome Web Store, Edge Add-ons & VS Code Marketplace) but with built-in security analysis on every page. It’s free and runs entirely in your browser - no sign-up needed. Check it out!

By supporting maintainers and projects with how to build stuff securely, from threat modelling to design to testing with codeql, they all get the help they need I’m so looking forward to helping with this as much as I can as it’s hugely vital imho

It isn’t ideal, it isn’t fair and frankly has to change. This is why what @github has done here is incredibly important

Yeah yeah we all have used this meme before, but the sad state of affairs is that many thousands of orgs rely on open source projects but hardly any support the actual maintainers.

For English novelist George Eliot (1818-1880), sympathy is the key to the ideal human society. We must recognize the common suffering in all beings. True communities can only be built when their members sympathize with those who are disabled or look different--as expressed in her

Even cooler is how codeQL is integrated into said agents to ensure the code they are writing is secure too.

Funny how the main vibe here at @githubuniverse isn’t how AI will remove all developers as most want you to believe, it’s that agents will aide you doing the cool shit alongside agents doing the other bits

My job is having their BEEG opening this week and these will be my last days off for a good chunk of time. So, I wanted to make sure we could have a long stream together. So, why not celebrate my birthday!

As always, Meredith is spot on here. Worthy read
📣THREAD: It’s surprising to me that so many people were surprised to learn that Signal runs partly on AWS (something we can do because we use encryption to make sure no one but you–not AWS, not Signal, not anyone–can access your comms). It’s also concerning. 1/
