Unfortunately, most LLM companies always were naturally an intelligence operation on civilians, and determining if they are now state-backed seems like a irrelevant detail. Privacy has been dead for some time now. The fact is most business

Steel and aluminum costs way more than it did last year, as the tariffs are hitting the small manufacturers first. Openbuilds was a slotted 2020 china rail kit company, and was very clear about community members being not allowed to post un

RP2350 pico can pull off a few classic tricks cleanly with the unique io dma design: https://github.com/codaris/picovga-cmake The sync'd DMA is so fast it also often replaces hard to find PROM chips with simple em

In general, most DAC and ADC colocated on/near a digital chip rail has a list of noise issues anyway, as even an external Vref chip may be unable to help repeatably hit the claimed bit resolution with oversampling. At $9.28/pc fo

The PIC compiler options were never standards compliant up until around when Microchip purchased AVR. There are great chips now that have free gcc support, reasonable power draw, and 32bit float support (ATSAM3X8E current prices are not w

One could argue "AI" fanatical cults are already a societal problem, as people seek emotional support & therapeutic value from what is essentially a polished psychopathic entity. Carl Sagan had predicted people losing understa

Keep in mind most LLM models have eventually Nuked all humanity 93% of the time in simulation games -- regardless of which government creates the model. Taking humans out of the firing decision control-loop is unethical, and incredibly cred

And in response, every other country will start ejecting US citizens after rummaging though their meaningless online critiques of the glorious leader. People did not think this policy through fully. =3

People will just limit publishing valid works to avoid becoming a hapless plagiarism victim class. Same thing happened to tech bloggers ripped off by low-effort you-tube content makers. Isomorphic plagiarism makes people feel 23% smarter,

There is nothing funny about $9Tn in FOSS getting misappropriated, and sold as isomorphic plagiarism tokens... or the estimated $4.6Tn in loan debts these 7 companies incinerated when the bubble pops. Anyone that lived through the dot-com o

In general, the code motion in C pushes the same local states of the registers like program counter return location onto the stack before entering each function. It is sometimes inefficient, but usually generates the same binary every time

When most fortune 500 companies burned brand-goodwill to sell disposable versions of products, it is credulous to believe all problems are external. =3

Should still be repeatable with a more modern benchmark suite and RT patch, but depends what your design constraints entail. https://people.mpi-sws.org/~bbb/papers/pdf/ospert13.pdf Personally, I would try som

All the answers I've seen so far are assuredly not inaccurate (the elephants trunk is like a snake), but never fully correct (an elephant is not a snake). While the LLM spits out each ambiguous context search result, it never answers t

JIT is even worse, as if you have ever built a compiler one already knows about why backpatching is needed during the generator stages. I cringe every time someone brings up embedded python, and lose hope for future coders. I agree it is su

It was actually a trivial allusion to a rather old poetic parable, and highlights a foundational flaw in LLM inference model statistical salience. If a LLM based chat bot does ever answer it correctly, than you know with a fair degree of ce

In C, even without inline assembly or "volatile" to gaurentee the same code motion every time, it is still possible to bake what is placed in "register" a priori. In llvm binaries, the code is abstracted/re-ordered,

Indeed, giving a definite answer to an ambiguous nonsense question is still incorrect. A fish can play with as many strings as it finds, but only one when on a hook. Yet this too is an incorrect answer, as it again ignores the ambiguity in

I doubt they changed out Erlang/Elixir, as it is mature backbone infrastructure. It has run many telecoms for over 30 years without issue. The problem is finding talent that knows both distributed systems, and Erlang/Elixir. But
