Administrative bloat. At my university, if my lab lands a grant, 60% goes to the university and only 40% is used for actual research. There’s a long chain of people whose jobs are to answer emails, and they all need to be paid.

Ah, yes. Nintendo has definitely done evil on the level of… checks notes …slavery.

Might want to reevaluate your list there.

I don’t know why an MSN link was used instead of a direct link to the article:

https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/microsoft-is-warping-the-pc-industry/

Again, not giving them a free pass. Just pointing out the terminology used is an overstatement.

I mean, I’m not exactly giving FF a pass here but rewarded is factually incorrect considering FF was paid to do the gig. The show wasn’t some free pat on the back for the execs doing such a great job.

Maybe the AI writing the articles are just taking credit for everything. “Yeah, that was me”

I’m talking about the energy and resources to actually create and provide this service.

Depends on how much energy it takes. If it takes more resources than it frees, then I’d say it is not worth it.

How do you get AI to change its answer when one researcher discovers what was generally accepted as fact is no longer true?

My single ultrawide setup has treated me much better than the 2-3 monitor setup I used to have.

Oh you can drink the powder? You don’t need to remove it?

Nope. Matcha is meant to be ground fine enough such that it suspends in your liquid and is drinkable without filtering.

Is there a tea like matcha that would be good to cold brew?

Sencha or any other green tea can be cold brewed. I’ve never done it myself, but pretty sure you just throw tea in some water and let it sit for a while. I’ve never done it myself, so just look up “cold brew green tea.” Granted, this will only be like matcha in flavor and not in mouthfeel. Furthermore, if you plan on adding milk, this is probably not the best route to take since green tea is generally much weaker than matcha, so adding milk eliminates any semblance of flavor from the tea.

It’s that simple

Yep

By immediately you don’t mean in one go right? Like I can drink it in like 2 hours right?

The matcha will settle out if you let it sit. However, you can just shake it up again and then drink it after letting it sit.

Matcha is traditionally made with water. Using milk, like in a matcha latte, is a newer trend. Look up a traditional match recipe using a whisk. Note, I know that most people do this with ceremonial grade matcha, but I’m not sure if people do this with lower grade matcha (for example, the bag you might buy at Costco). It sounds like you are probably not using ceremonial grade, so I can’t vouch for how good it will taste. However it’s still worth experimenting with.

“Cold brew” matcha doesn’t really make sense. The goal of cold brew is to extract flavor from coffee/tea leaves over a long period of time using room temp/cold water. However matcha isn’t really meant to be extracted, it’s meant to be suspended in a liquid and drunk. If you want a “cold matcha drink” rather than specifically cold brew, I would try just throwing some matcha with some cold water in a mason jar, pop the lid on, and shake it up. Then just drink immediately.

they pretty much saved the whole AI industry

Sam Altman could’ve vanished from the face of the Earth, and AI would be fine. There are so many big players (including Microsoft) in the game and so many other AI researchers that things would’ve likely continued going strong.

Lemmy client that is a fork of Infinity for reddit.

I can’t speak for the whole suite, but Excel sucks in the browser. The browser version do not have all the same features as desktop. I only use Office if I’m forced to and use LibreOffice or Latex otherwise

Build your own locally hosted cloud!

This is the hard part to sell people. I feel like for self-hosting to become popular, there would need to be a “plug ‘n’ play” device that essentially has everything you need to set up a small server on your home network. If you could set up a home server as easily as you can set up a Google Home device, that would be amazing.

Also if you’re looking to make a job out of it, Python will lead you to job opportunities that are imo much more satisfying than JS.

I always prescribe learning Python over basically any other language (unless you’re gonna start doing some real low-level computing). It’s a much more relevant and popular language. C# isn’t irrelevant, you’ll just see Python used way more often. Python will also compliment JS much more.
