Just like everyone else, at one point I used WinAMP, then when they started the upgrade to new and significantly more hardware demanding version I switched to Aimp, which to this day I use as mobile application. Am no longer on Windows, but I still miss those applications. VLC simply doesn't fit that role of a music player.

Open sourcing WinAMP means we'll probably get a ported version for Linux, which I am very much looking forward to.

Hello GPT-4o ( openai.com )

GPT-4o (“o” for “omni”) is a step towards much more natural human-computer interaction—it accepts as input any combination of text, audio, and image and generates any combination of text, audio, and image outputs. It can respond to audio inputs in as little as 232 milliseconds, with an average of 320 milliseconds,...

It's still LLM, so it's still breaking input into tokens and generating answers based on their relations.

Neatly put resume with some obvious things to improve. Order of elements should be different, for example working experience and references usually come last because when we are looking to hire we are quick glancing over skills first then look where you worked. Those being on top of the page matter.

So I'd list things this way: Education, Technical Skills & Certifications, Projects, Experience, References (if you have any).

Another thing I'd like to point out is if you have GitHub/GitLab account do link that. Your code speaks a lot louder than CV and might get you past first round of elimination. Managers do look at that and it matters a lot. Am not in the job market for past 10 years or so but I still get job offers regularly just because I have publicly available code and few open source projects of some popularity.

You are already doing a great job at keeping things short but I'll say it anyway: Don't inflate skills and knowledge to make the resume look richer. Write what you are confident in using and what you'd like to use eventually. Any developer can say ah I can write 15 different languages, because once you learn syntax and few intricacies all of them more or less are the same. But if you don't know standard library and have experience working with it you might paint yourself in the corner where you'd get a job and have to work on language you are not comfortable with or even worse get tested using it and then fail on a stupid thing. Most managers know if you are proficient in one language, learning another is matter of time. That and you want to put the best foot forward.

Good luck. Your sneaking suspicion is wrong. If only all the resumes I had to review were this concise.

E-Bikes Should Not Require Pedaling, Proposes U.K. Government, Diverging From E.U. ( www.forbes.com )

E-bikes could get faster, more powerful and not require pedaling, in a move announced today by UKGOV. Cycling organizations are opposed to the plans.

Kind of stupid idea. There is a place and need for light weight transport that is assisted bicycle. Our law classifies these (and electric scooters) as light electric vehicles and has special set of rules for them. Things like when driving on pedestrian paths they can't move faster than 5km/h. On roads maximum is 25km/h but they have to wear reflective west. Kids must wear helmets, etc. For the most part sensible requirements.

That said I am of the opinion everyone should take a test to participate in traffic, bicycles included. For bikes there aren't many rules they need to know anyway. They can skip almost all of the signs except those for the right of way. So it would be easy test but a necessary one. And simply bar kids on bicycles in traffic lanes and that's it. Safest for everyone.

Not impossible but I think the idea is to make bicycles less annoying to pedestrians.

I can believe people took up on this offer. As the saying goes drowning man will reach for straws. Issue is they probably oversold reliability and safety.

No. They came up with their own proposal, said they accept it and Israel got to see it at the last moment and of course refused it. So now we have headlines how Israel is attacking Rafah and refused ceasefire proposal which didn't even include release of hostages just bunch of demands from Hamas.

Statistically speaking it's also men who are majority of victims when it comes to muggings and assaults.

Okay, all electricity goes out, planes start falling, sewage gets clogged, no more coal for heating so that goes away as well, no plumbers and repair men to fix shit. So, I'd assume a chaos.

Grid is constantly adjusted by adding and removing power plants from the system to meet the demand. This process is not always automated because frequency needs to be synced and sometimes that's really hard to do automatically. For solar it shouldn't be a problem, wind, steam and hydro are different beasts. Here's a nice video showing the process of connecting hydroelectric power plant.

Edit: Here's another video on the subject. Worth the watch.

Not to mention, batteries perform poorly in the winter.

Motorcycles are greener than cars anyway. Less wear on the road, less traffic jam influence, fewer parking spaces, fewer materials to produce and maintain, etc. Am fairly confident you 40 year old motorcycle is far greener than a new EV. Sure, EV will eventually offset its own manufacturing and material cost, but it will take a while, especially if we take into consideration where the electricity comes from.

MeanEYE ,
@MeanEYE@lemmy.world avatar

Well, it's not a tipping point but a gradient. And batteries are affected more on a motorcycle simply because there's no cabin to hide them in.

Really depends on a rider, really. Past few winters, I didn't stop riding at all save when it was raining or snowing, which was a few weeks total.

Meat eaters don't come in your face and call you weed whacker or tree huger whenever there's food being mentioned.

MeanEYE ,
@MeanEYE@lemmy.world avatar

Choosing what you eat is your own thing and right to do. But when that decision becomes what defines people they become very annoying. We live in a world of abundance which we created by exploiting people, animals and nature as a whole. So when someone comes without asking and calls you a murderer and animal abused for something they themselves did until recently and still rely on modern medicine and whole set of other animal products it's annoying, hypocritical and most importantly dishonest.

Step one. Stop taking medicine, as lots of pills use lactose and all the vaccines are tested using horseshoe crab blood and are tested on animals.

@MeanEYE@lemmy.world avatar

Nor have I implied it does. But calling people names just because you do something less than others is dishonest and quite frankly disgusting.

In fact you've never moved away from factory farms and have been completely ignoring any facts and just quoting random stuff that suits your narrative. You are not making an argument for your position, you just yelling "lalalalal I can't hear you ".

Good luck with that sentiment. People tried to boycott products made or designed in Israel and then realized it's near impossible. Edit: Found a list

Demand was 40 hostages, but primarily non-combatant. Then fill the rest with the rest.

'Everyone in the World Needs to See This': Footage Shows IDF Drone Killing Gazans ( www.commondreams.org )

Adding to the mountain of evidence that Israel is engaged in a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip, Al Jazeera on Thursday aired footage of what the news outlet reported was an Israeli drone targeting four Palestinians in Khan Younis last month....

Mountain of evidence from Al Jazeera, but JerusalemPost and YNet are not to be trusted. I sense double-standards. Also, would love to see that mountain of evidence.

It's comical how many Hamas-apologists there are on this site.
