Violating laws.

In alarm away mode, if motion sensor in the middle of the house is triggered without having set off the motion sensors elsewhere, disable that sensor until alarm disabled.

Would plain old “What the Fuck” imply a null set?

That’s an amazing amount of hardware crammed into a tiny wearable.

LoRa, NFC, wifi, Bluetooth/BLE, haptics, IMU, NPU, mic, speaker, touchscreen, 32GB sd-card slot, and USB-C.

I’ve always enjoyed the Microsoft project naming conventions. When you do a search, you get back so many responses, only to find out that was for something from a decade ago that has since been superceded twice by vaguely similar names.

• Microsoft’s already signalled they’re leaning toward ARM, especially with AI NPUs.

• Cloud providers are big into AMD.

• There’s no Intel phone or tablet story.

• Nothing in embedded since they killed off Atom.

• NVidia’s eating their lunch on medium to high-margin GPUs. Gaudi is out there, but everyone’s talking about H100s and 200s. Added insult to injury: getting dropped off of DJIA in favor of Nvidia.

If they kill off foundries, what else is left going forward? Enterprise servers? Their stake in Mobileye? Cheap laptops?

What am I missing?

Last week I asked ChatGPT for a list of coding AI agents and what was unique about each one, just to see what was out there. It spewed out a whole bunch, including a few that weren’t real agents, just tools like static code analyzers.

Funny enough, Claude Code wasn’t on the list. I had to ask explicitly “what about Claude Code?” Only then it generated a separate list with some overlap, also with irrelevant tools, that included Claude.

Laughed at how petty it was. Like Bing search not returning anything with Google in the name.

418: catchall API response when all else fails. Easy to filter in logs.

Would work better if the font was more old-timey.

Why did the snail cross the road?

Not clear. Let it cross the road first.

TAVR’s been around for a few years, but not everyone qualifies for TAVR: https://www.mayoclinic.org/tests-procedures/transcatheter-aortic-valve-replacement/about/pac-20384698

They’ve also been doing Davinci robotic-assisted mitral valve replacement for 20 years: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5135549/

But this procedure sounds like it’s for those who can’t use any of the other methods. Hope it catches on fast. Recovery from open-heart surgery is a nightmare.
