Other countries have public transit that works, such that taxis are only needed in specific situations warranting an expensive private chauffeur, autonomous or meatbag.

It's hilarious how much they can't take any accountability for running a random text generator in prod, and they could not even be bothered to write their own tweet. I do not feel sorry, but I do feel some real schadenfreude.

I'm at peace with unfinished projects. My dev/ is a graveyard, only a few of those eventually make their way to a public forge. That's okay. Not every project needs to be finished; not every project needs to be published. I h

I cannot care less what (legal) porn content people consume in the intimacy of their room. I cannot understand being prude about this. Like all things, over-use is unhealthy, but I have yet to see studies proving the societal damage caused

Genuinely curious: why/what would I ever want to run edge AI on a 1100mAh wearable with a tiny power-optimized embedded SoC? I can't think of a single useful scenario. At this scale, a few ifs/elses will do.

Thanks for that. Did you notice that the unsloth/unsloth docker image is 12GB? Does it embed CUDA libraries or some default models that justifies the heavy footprint?

How do you discover human-made songs in an ocean of slop? One of the reasons I subscribed to a music platform back in the day was the ability to discover new artists, and I found my fair share! This is close to impossible nowadays, though I

Ignore the naysayers, keep trying, even if some percentage of false-positives is inevitable. We need such tools.

And Web Serial reached mainline Firefox last week. I hope Mozilla can eventually stop playing their silly role in the security theater of “but what if our users are dumb” and actually deliver those "power-user" features that would

Or just nix. The new hardware deployment would have been one nixos-build or colmena call, not accounting for the data migration of course.

Putting aside the fact this was "cheating" because it got access to source code. I am very here for a world where we can take back control, at scale , of the enshittified, you'll-own-nothing, ad-ridden consumer electronics

Is it inevitable though? Open-weight models large enough to come close to an API model are insanely expensive to run for con/prosumers. I'd put the “expensive” bar at ≥24GB since that's already well into 4 digits, which gives

Were they deployed at scale in such a way that most (open and some non-free) software is packaged as such? I've never seen this happen until nixpkgs.

Reading the paragraph on hash pinning and "map lookup files" (lockfiles) made me audibly sigh.

by Zopieux 6mo ago
The entire paragraph about version pinning using hashes (and using a map lookup for in-workflow binary deps) reminds me that software engineers are forever doomed to reinvent worse versions of nixpkgs and flakes. I don't even love Nix,

Locals already know and vote accordingly. Unfortunately it is considered "woke" and left-brained to use alternatives to cars, therefore billionaire-owned media (i.e. most of French TV and press) tries to hammer that this is someho

I was wondering why there wasn't yet a comment dismissing any change or progress in the US citing its land size, forgetting that the US has hundreds of large, dense cities where this "argument" does no hold. Never change!

Can't relate. Except for Google Maps and Docs, I can't think of a native app that couldn't be a WebView. Hell, most of them are anyway! The worst kind is French banking apps or IBKR app: many features are native, but then bec

This only works up to a point. Some human needs some way of changing the publication setup in case something goes wrong or changes. What you're asking is blowing a proverbial e-fuse once the setup is known to be working. This is so

On the contrary, I love that companies are semantically overloading this stupid concept (purposefully or not) which is 100% hype marketing. I don't understand why this label is still a thing in the current discourse, and I hope such mo

I see the attraction, however this will immediately get abused and this delay increased to unreasonable within months/years of it being introduced. Some kind of slippery slope if you will.

Nope, they need more inertial storage to smooth things out and buy time / absorb inevitable failure bursts/cascades from inverted production means or safety disconnection events.
