NVIDIA earnings were a mirage. The market figured it out surprisingly fast. NVIDIA bump evaporated.

This is why we can't have nice things: streaming service companies cancelling their best shows after two seasons, like Poker Face at the peak of its success.
Also Natasha Lyonne is half of the show's interest, why would Rian Johnson even consider replacing her?

Poker Face has been cancelled by Peacock after just two seasons, though the director has said he will now attempt to save the show by shopping it to another streamer — with a completely different actor in the leading role. https://bit.ly/49eRXK2

Happy that the stars aligned perfectly for me: I used Navigation3 since their alpha releases to build new features that I pushed to production two weeks ago, right on time with the final bug fixes before stable. I'm very happy with its simplicity and flexibility compared to Navigation2.

Jetpack Navigation 3 is stable! 🎉🎉🎉
Leaning into Jetpack Compose and the idea of combining smaller building blocks together really helped make Nav3 a much more flexible library that made it a joy to work on and hopefully for you to use as well!

I hate to see so many professional tools now offering "AI summaries" which create noise and zero added value.
LLMs are unable to summarize because they don't understand the content or the context, they're only able to produce arbitrary shorter text.

They are also intentionally conflating machine-learning and generative AI slop to confuse and try to make GenAI seem necessary. Google Maps traffic stuff is machine learning, not GenAI, for example. Auto-correct is too. Don't let them make you lose the thread. GenAI slop is slop.
the nyt posts this stuff like avoiding AI for 48 hours is hard and meanwhile i have literally never once intentionally used an AI program for anything ever
