So, I am impressed by the Machiavellian manœuvre of #HaleyStevens .

It's hard to know when your #RageQuit is going to be most effective, and it's really got to be timed right. You only get to blow it all up once.

I think she nailed it on Sunday, two days before the election, when she endorsed her primary opponent's general election opponent.

It got a lot of attention; even from Trump. I don't know if it will help Mike Rogers, but I think it will help Haley Stevens.

Good morning, afternoon or evening wherever you may be.

Wishing you a smooth and easy Monday.

@davidgerard Oh, then it must be true. Markdown files never lie.

Sunday’s temperatures came within 1 degree of the city’s all time high. Relief is on the way with a cold front on Tuesday, and for now it appears this front will not be particularly disruptive to Election Day activities.

@robertsullivanai indeed

Hello, everyone! This is the second part of our tutorial on creating a sky shader in Godot 4. So far, we’ve created the daytime half of the effect, and in this episode, we’ll tackle the nighttime version.

@robertsullivanai still early days, still being defined

@glynmoody Indeed, they're mostly who I had in mind.

Happy to announce the release of libcamera 0.8.0 "Prague".

A new improved
framework in libipa unifies code
between IPA modules giving consistency in image controls. This improves across IPU3, Mali-C55 and RkISP1.

SoftISP now has improved AGC with this and also Lens Shading support in GPU ISP.

Also many updates for sensors: Sony IMX296, Sony
IMX355, Sony IMX471, Sony IMX662, Sony IMX675, Sony IMX832, ams-OSRAM Mira 220,
and OmniVision OV08D10.

@fasnix @mschfr Ja, das habe ich auch gefunden. Kaltakquise lohnt sich aber gerade für kleine Firmen selten, bei einem Rücklauf von 1% oder so.

@Kahte 🤗🤗

She managed to pull it off on a quiet Sunday when there wasn't much else in the news cycle.

So in a midterm election where billions of dollars have been spent trying to get voters' attention, a whole day was devoted to talking about a woman whose defining characteristic is that she's not on the ballot.

People don’t trust AI, but they tell it everything

People discuss their most private thoughts with AI chatbots. But their revelations to the apps doesn’t mean they trust the Big Tech companies behind them, according to new research from Proton.

Roughly two-thirds of AI chatbot users have discussed at least one sensitive topic. But at the same time, fewer than one in five say they have a high level of trust in AI companies to protect their private information.
