Looks like the repo owner has force pushed a new project over the original source code, now it’s python, and they are shilling some other agent tool.

Why is copilot doing this? If they wanted to show ads couldn’t they… just show ads? Or is GitHub such a house of cards at this point that editing pr descriptions is the only way without risking another 9 of downtime?

I just yanked two of the sticks out. Who knows, maybe I'll sell them. 64gb is sufficient most of the time anyway, and now I'm running at 4800 instead of 3600 and the boot is much faster. Thanks AMD!

My guess is bigger numbers, higher voltages, tighter timings.

It's the RAM. It needs to "trained" which takes some time but for for some reason these boards seem to randomly forget their training, requiring it to happen again.

I’m in the same situation! My machine will take 2-5 minute to post every few reboots, it seems random. The messed up part is the marketing material says this things can handle 256gb of ram or whatever absurd number, f me for thinking then 1

I’m running 128gb on a 9550x now with 4x32gb sticks and it’s terrible. It’s unstsable, post time is about 2 minutes (not exaggerating)and I’m stuck at a lower speed. I’m considering just taking 2 of the sticks out and working with 64gb and

Dethroned Python? The Apple language, seriously. Where is numpy for swift?

UI elements that have depth look so mouth-wateringly good now. So over the minimalism and bouncing back hard.

Well their country is currently being bombed, curious what additional ramifications you’d like to see?

Will it be? Or is the solution to move to smaller, trusted networks where there's less need for proof. Unfortunately I think the age of large scale open discussion forums like HN is coming to an end.

I wonder how much QT has to do with this. AFAIK the only _decent_ bindings are still C++ and Python. For KDE it might just be C++? There's plenty of valid criticism of GTK but choosing C over C++ isn't one of them. It seems like t

So your straw man is that the internet already had bad stuff on it? Cmon, you can do better. Adding more bad to bad is still bad.

This is great. I’m still rocking a nearly 10 year old T470s. Great machine with Linux on it, still snappy enough- Tailscale is there when I need to do serious work (on my desktop at home!) I replaced the batteries a few months ago and it wa

If all you care about is the facts, and not the other’s relationship to them, why engage with a person at all? You could query a LLM for whatever subject, argument or counterpoint you wish. Besides, your hypothetical summaries chock full of

No. It doesn’t matter how good an llm model is. If a person has something to say and they can give the llm enough context to say it well, they should just write it themselves. Theres 0 reason to bring a llm into it. Doing so simply makes yo

Is there an acronym for “AI generated, didn’t read”?

That person is surely a lizard person, generation or wider societal norms don't matter. The point I was trying to make is it's becoming easier to staff companies with dubious moral standings.

Gen Z doesn’t seem to carry the millennial “making the world a better place” sensibility. They are all hustle culture, all the time. While I appreciate a lot of their culture this is the aspect that makes me nervous about the future.

Exactly. If you do this and the wearer says something like “I’m not even recording bro” the perfect response is “I’m not either”

Take out your phone, hold it up, and record them back. Get others to do it too for extra comical effect. Honestly I’d love to hear from someone who actually owns one of these things how doing this is any different than using the glasses.

How much do you automate anything in your life at all? Seems like most daily drudgery comes from physical tasks. Feed the dog. Take out the trash. Personally I can’t think of anything digital that could be automated that isn’t already. I wo

And how’s that going to work against LLM output?
