I didn't expect it to be that useless. I like to experiment with home automation things, and recently I added a feature to my system where I could push notifications with images to my phone (pretty much everything I do is entirely self

Thank you! Looks like the best way to do this. And since I have backups, I might not even need the testing step, considering the low risk. Might do it anyway just out of curiosity at how long it would take to duplicate.

My personal reason: While I haven't had to deal with a Postgres update at work yet, I've been running a pretty large Postgres 12 database in my homelab for a few years now. My homelab projects mostly center around a "everythi

Interesting outlier: Factorio and probably other games from this genre. I usually upgrade my CPU just to prevent it from becoming a bottleneck (that's the official version, I very often buy technology for the sake of having cool new te

We'll probably see a lot of this: Alice writes short prompt -> Alice's LLM generates oversized slop -> Bob's LLM generates summary -> Bob skims the summary. Some information may be lost in this process due to halluci

I sometimes feel that way about pixel art in modern games, but maybe that's a bit like getting angry at people playing checkers for using a chessboard wrong. For some people it's about being creative within the very narrow bounds

There is an entire little ecosystem/subculture around "repressed memories" doing a lot of harm to vulnerable people. Basically you go to a "therapist", they do some sort of hypnosis/interview session where they

Same. I don't use my laptop from 2018 or so that much - so I can wait. I definitely prefer Framework's concept over everything else, but I'm also not impressed with x86 battery life. Guess I have some time to choose between 1

I have 64 GB, but it really depends on the quantization. Looking at LM Studio I see versions ranging from 15 GB to 49 GB, and that's roughly how much RAM they will require. LM Studio will also let you do partial GPU offloads, but I&#x2

In AI, that doesn't sound too surprising to me right now. I just experiment with some local LLMs, but the differences are pretty huge: Llama 3 8B, Raspberry Pi 5: 2-3 Tokens/second (but it works!) Llama 3 8B, RTX 4080: ~60 Tokens&

First get that growth looked at. Then find a long-term project to work on that you can get back to whenever you get bored with one of the other 199 interests. That way you get to have a sense of progress without getting bored.

I don't have a lot of experience with using research papers, but I feel like people writing these articles don't either. > In 2017, Naviaux and his team completed early clinical testing for suramin, the only drug approved in hu

There's a lot of software I would pay for, if there was some offer that made sense for my use case. For example,I use hwinfo64 because I like having some system stats on my stream deck. The free version cuts off the shared memory acc

That's my understanding too. I usually add an event handler to TaskScheduler.UnobservedTaskException that logs any exception like that so at least there's some trace of it. You could also use it to end the process with an error th

I have yet to see a comment with a sarcastic "something bad" in it that provides an actual argument. By the way, what positive effect has crypto had so far? Other than redistributing between some people and wasting enormous amount

That's basically every other HN article for me. Zero context. "Blorglorp 2024.4.99 released" "With the new version, Blorglorp finally sheds its libgnipgnop dependency and increases efficiency by 1.25%". Bam, top pos

I don't get it either. I mostly use C#, but I somehow manage to properly indent it anyway. Whenever I use python, I don't have any issues with indentation. To me this discussion always sounds a bit like people complaining they can

I watched some Dragon Ball on TV as a kid, wasn't a fan at first, until I randomly saw the first or second episode. The beginning is very charming and has such a sense of adventure! I didn't know about Manga at the time, and you c
