The original link worked for me in a desktop browser, but this direct link was provided by GP in another comment and may work for you: https://soundcloud.com/paullouth/paul-louth-jungle-mix-nye-2...

This is really cool insight into both the Steam client and Linux programming. I understand why there may not be detailed release notes every release, but wow "Fixed some miscellaneous common crashes" is an understatement when you

It loaded nicely for me, but NoScript blocked 3 of 5 domains and uBlock blocked 1 item. Reader mode further cleaned up and rendered it like a newspaper article.

This is awesome, thanks for the advice! I'll definitely give these tools a shot for my next import job.

I still see a lot of XML in SOAP/WSDL APIs, typically in Microsoft shops, but thankfully JSON feels like the norm when IIS isn't involved.

I also work with foreign CSVs regularly. I'll have to try the Python Way next time I have a weird file to work with. I typically use PowerShell to process the files from a unknown CSV format to a known one so it's easier to work w

As a retro PC hobbyist I loved this line: > Just for fun, I ported llama.cpp to Windows XP and ran a 360M model on a 2008-era laptop. It was magical to load that old laptop with technology that, at the time it was new, would have been wo

Nice! I had a maxed out 2015 MBP and that too lasted a long time. After Mojave, it started to really show its age though.

Yep! There is very real concern about accidentally introducing Earth life on others moons and planets, and then "discovering" the introduced life instead of actual native life. As you mentioned with tardigrades, there are life for

Just thinking outloud to myself - if Apple could embed their key management tech in a simple cross platform UI and support Windows, Linux, iOS, Android, and the web like Bitwarden - they'd be a viable alternative.

Definitely, good luck with the launch! I found Linktree is very popular amongst creators on Tiktok for sharing their various profiles, but I always thought it would be cool to find or build a simpler alternative with a cleaner UI. You built

I really like how minimal it is. Even the markup is super clean and readable. I had no trouble going from landing -> working link page. The confirmation email did go to junk mail, though that was already expressed/known. I marked it

The closed toolbox is a nice analogy for opening a sheet full of numbers. A foreign Excel sheet can take a lot of clicking around to get an idea of how it works sometimes.

Same in a regular desktop browser with NoScript. I know we're supposed to focus on the content and not the delivery, but it's always wild to me when JS is required to display some text.

This is my take as well. Can I avoid microplastics? No. Can I make simple household decisions that minimize my intake? Yes. Stainless pots and pans, stainless or wooden tools, stainless silverware, ceramic plates and bowls. Yes, it takes sl

Not in production, but I've used a 3B model to test a local LLM application I'm working on. I needed a full end-to-end request/response and it's a lot faster asking a 3B model than an 8B model. I could setup a test harne

I have trouble with this too. I'm working on a small side project and while I love ironing out implementation details myself, it's tough to ignore the fact that Claude/GPT4o can create entire working files for me on demand. I

It just depends on the task I suppose. One could have a VM dedicated to a model and let it control it freely to accomplish some set of tasks, then wipe/redeploy if it ever breaks.

Seeing models act as though they have agency gives me goosebumps (e.g. seeking out photos of Yellowstone for fun). LLMs don't yet have a concept of true intent or agency, but it's wild to think of them acquiring it. I have been pl

Maybe we could have both - models to improve accessibility (e.g. for users who can't move their body well) and models to perform high level tasks without supervision. It could be very empowering for users with disabilities to regain ac
