They successfully charged my card for $1 like a dozen times as I tried and failed to get past their check. At the time I wasn't even interested in the free stuff, I wanted to pay for an ARM VPS, and their verification system just wasn&

It's not about having to be 100% effective, it just has to be worth it considering the trade-off of introducing a hurdle for every legitimate user using your website. I would probably value my time, spent solving an annoying reCAPTCHA

There is a whole industry of CAPTCHA solving services that mostly use humans in places where labor is cheap. Prices per reCAPTCHA vary somewhere between $0.001 to $0.002 on one of the popular ones. It doesn't require much sophisticatio

It seems to use an old, 2 year old version of ROCm (5.4.2) which I'm doubtful would support my RX 7900 XTX. I personally found it easiest to just use the latest `rocm/pytorch` image and run what I need from there

Is this sustainable though, or are they just trying really hard to attract users? If I build all of my tooling on it, will they start charging me thousands of dollars next year once the subsidies dry up? With a local model running with open

For a blog? If you don't put anything important on the server itself I can't imagine a hacker could do much. Maybe put a nasty image on your front page, or put their Bitcoin address pretending it's the place to send donations

The cost of developing and maintaining Proton, Linux driver improvements, and their own Arch-based OS has probably exceeded the amount they saved by not shipping Windows on Steam Deck. But what they got in return is a much more usable gamin

There's a lot of data loss and guessing with STT/TTS. An STT model might misrecognize a word, but an audio LLM may understand the true word because of the broad context. A TTS model needs to guess the inflection and it can get it

The autogenerated app in their demo video comes with fake reviews and falsely claims you can make lists private when they're actually all public. Of course there's also zero GDPR/CCPA compliance on the generated app, there is

If OpenAI really cares about AI safety, they should be all about humans double-checking the thought process and making sure it hasn't made a logical error that completely invalidates the result. Instead, they're making the conscio

Humans use Google Chrome from their home IP address that isn't on any blacklists, and they're always happy to make an account and download an app instead of accessing a website. Or at least that's what companies think humans

Pointers just point to an address in memory. It could point to a single structure or variable, but it also became a standard in C to use pointers to point to the start of an array. When used like this, you have to either agree what the end

I always found it funny they call the Apple Vision Pro a "spatial computer". In my view, for a computer to be a computer, it should be capable of self-hosting development of its own software and operating system. But the Apple Vis
