In my experience, iOS 18 makes it better, but no, it is still not as good as Whisper Large, which is what OpenAI uses behind the scenes.

You can run smaller Whisper models on your phone through various third party apps, and those options work well too. (Trying to run Whisper Large even on the iPhone 15 Pro Max is asking too much… it works, but only barely.)


Looks like I can skip iPhone 15 then. Will upgrade when it can run Whisper Large locally… hopefully iPhone 20 or sooner.


I know very little about PTAs, but... why would a PTA need to share passwords anyways, instead of having separate logins?


Immediate example that comes to mind: there’s a paid-for Canva account that multiple people need to use. Can’t use separate logins because then you’d need multiple subscriptions.


This is in breach of the tos though, right? Great example to set for the kids.


Moral argument is that a PTA are part time organizations and if canva doesn't cater to that business model, then shared credentials is fair use, commercial and for profit use is a horse of a different color.


Pretty sure the kids aren’t aware of the PTA’s use of Canva.


It’s weird how non-specific the CPU is there. Why wouldn’t they list a CPU part number? We don’t even know what generation of Epyc it is. (I get that it’s not the focus… but it is still important.)


electronupdate also published a more detailed video for the teardown: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vb8AB8bsQSk


The Pi5 southbridge was codenamed RP1, the RP2040 was RP2, and the RP2350 is apparently RP4. What might RP3 be I wonder? The boring prediction is that it's just a new southbridge for the Pi6, but one can hope they eventually split with Broadcom and do their own in-house Linux SoC which they would be able to document properly.


RP3 is the Pi Zero 2 W SiP


Oh, that's even more boring. Fingers crossed for RP5 then...


RP5 with CM5?


That channel is great, would be great to find repositories of similar hacker/electronics channels, if anyone has some.

FWIW, one of the only English-language sources I can find on Google claims around 8700 are in use: https://www.spotzi.com/en/data-catalog/categories/postal-cod...

Don’t know where this discrepancy is coming from, but ~8k to ~30k is quite a jump.


This might help explain in-part the discrepancy. Perplexity.ai[1] also says 8,200 German postal codes. I set Claude 3.5 Sonnet in the LLM settings on Perplexity but it looks like it might use a ChatGPT model for the initial search of sources? At least we can see what it is sourcing to fetch the value of 8,200. Interestingly, asking Claude 3.5 Sonnet directly at claude.ai returned 16,000.[2]

1. https://www.perplexity.ai/search/how-many-german-postal-code... 2. "There are approximately 16,000 postal codes (Postleitzahlen) in Germany. These five-digit codes cover all areas of the country, including cities, towns, and rural regions.

To break it down a bit further:

1. The first digit represents one of 10 postal regions. 2. The second digit typically represents a sub-region within that area. 3. The last three digits identify specific delivery areas or post offices.

It's worth noting that the exact number can fluctuate slightly over time due to administrative changes, urban development, or postal service reorganization. However, 16,000 is a good approximation for the total number of German postal codes.

Would you like more information about how the German postal code system works or its history?"


Llama3.1-405B benchmarks at a level that I would certainly consider comparable to other SOTA models, as long as multimodality isn’t needed.

Regardless, OpenAI provides access to quite a few of their older models through the API, since the API lets you pass in a specific model version. I’m sure the older models won’t be available forever, but that is a much more stable target for researchers than just opening the ChatGPT website and typing in things.


ChatGPT specifically is more than just a chat interface on top of got-4.

Their system prompt includes the current date and time among other information, making it very very hard to run reproducible experiments against it.

But it’s the tool most people are using.


The Google Authenticator app (just as a mainstream example) was released 14 years ago. When we're still waiting for a lot of banks to even support TOTP, consider me unimpressed with the level of effort banks are putting into securing my accounts.


Good news loyal customer, we now support 2-factor authentication!

... over SMS!


I had phone number stolen (sim swap) two months ago and am still dealing with random things.

2FA over SMS is not a valid form of 2FA and I will die on that hill.


I keep telling my bank this but they simply do not care.


AdGuard has worked well enough on Safari on iOS for years now.


It does nothing for cookie banners


Nothing? AdGuard offers a “cookie notices” filter, which is presumably designed to remove cookie banners. I haven’t tried turning it on.


I highly doubt it. I agree it would be cool if it were true.
