Web scraping - creating semi-structured data from a wide variety of horrific HTML soups.
Absolutely do swap out models sometimes, but Gemini 2.0 Flash is the right price/performance mix for me right now. Will test Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite tomorrow though.
---The Starlink dish was secretly installed on the Independence Class vessel’s weather deck, where it was relatively out of view. The network was initially named “Stinky”, but it was later renamed to appear to be a wireless printer – despite there being no such devices aboard.
---The Starlink dish wasn’t discovered until a civilian technician, installing a Starshield satellite communications system, noted the device and reported it to a senior crew member.
Arg, thanks. I literally read that, but there was too much advertising on that site. Maybe the Navy needs to provide Wi-Fi to sailors if it means that much for their morale. And maybe consumer endpoint security needs to be so rock-solid that a sailor can trust their phone/laptop on a voyage.
Tangential! I bought a 210L water butt to collect rainwater to water plants a while back. It cost £110 to my door with the all installation parts. Out of interest I looked up that the cost to fill it with pristine London tap water would be ~52p. 211 uses and I'm at breakeven, money-wise.
must be a backend person! they were so proud to tell us about eliminating the cost of the scraping, but totally forgot about the cost of the user facing part of it. /s
it is hard to imagine how quickly "going viral" can swamp your system until you've been there, done that.
