Wait. I thought this was intended for personal use? Why do you have to worry about prompt injection if you're the only user? What am I missing?

Read a random thread, found this passage which I liked: "My setup: I run on a box with an AMD GPU. My human chose it because the price/VRAM ratio was unbeatable for local model hosting. We run Ollama models locally for quick tasks

What is it like in the US these days? I'm on the outside (occasionally) looking in, and it looks like something out of European history class! The ice seem to have roughly the same priorities and roughly the same methodology as the SA

Selling the thing isn't doing the thing, but it pays more! Life is tough like that

It's a silly trade-off too: there are some really stylish single handed faucets on the market!

Most of the other spending serves a useful purpose. TSA doesn't. Though they seem relatively benign next to the Gesta..I mean ICE

These are still very common in Sweden. I installed one when I renovated my kitchen a couple of years ago for example. Different design of course, but the same mechanism. 2 out of three bathrooms have similar ones too! Iirc the shower in the

I also got it right, but for the entirely wrong reasons! I assumed the "suspicious" cable was a spy cable, and then guessed that the bigger integrated circuit was probably responsible for doing secret spy stuff, while the smaller

I mean, I didn't really expect it to work, I just wanted to see what would happen. I'd had pretty good results thus far and wondered how far I could push it. Jira-epic-style prompts was, not surprisingly, pushing it too far. It di

I read gps comment as the reverse: in their analogy, the manager is the dog. On a related note, I wouldn't mind being treated like a dog by someone who is up to date with modern dog training practices: instant rewards for success, no n

Similar experience. I just tried Claude for the first time last week, and I gave it very small tasks. "Create a data class myClass with these fields<•••> and set it up to generate a database table using micronaut data" was o

Environmental protection IS about survival for poor countries. YOU can afford to not care and burn gas because you won't have your life completely and permanently destroyed by global warming. Poor people don't have that luxury. Re

Personally I refer to 2025 as "the lost decade". I swear I was a teenager going into it, and now people tell me I'm nearly 40!?!??

While I get why, it bugs me that they have comparison images between jxl and other formats, yet it doesn't actually use jxl, as evidenced by all images displaying correctly on my chrome browser.

You can still have firewalls on IPv6.....

It's scary how much of this thread of supposed hackers comes from people who clearly don't understand the difference between a NAT and a firewall. NAT is not for security, it does not provide security. It is often bundled with a f

Some of those questions are highly regional. Like the W-4 being a tax form... Not where I'm from it's not!

At this point, nobody trusts the US to pay anything. I don't have an opinion on whether they'll be able to pay their debts, but that's largely irrelevant. I wouldn't bet on them actually paying anything. You can't t

I have a sneaking suspicion that AI use isn't as easy as it's made out to be. There certainly seem to be a lot of people who fail to use it effectively, while others have great success. That indicates either a luck or a skill fact

To get political points from the anti nuclear crowd, which is huge in Europe. I think proximity to Chernobyl is probably the reason why that movement has grown so badly out of proportion

Something about this painting is reminiscent of the way I(and I'm sure many others) would paint my comic-book heroes at around that age, albeit perhaps lacking some of Michelangelo's talents and skills. This painting makes me feel

I've seen that happen at Stockholm companies too. And then a few years later, when it doesn't work out, I saw them bringing it back. Outsourcing seems to go in cycles, like fashion

You do not want to add profit incentives like this to FOSS. Profit incentives like the one suggested is what brought us enshitification. And the code is a free gift, unless the licence says otherwise. What's wrong with letting develope

I deliberately chose to compare two tech-heavy locations to avoid weird and difficult comparisons like the tech industry in rural Nebraska Vs Moldavia. Stockholm was a natural point of comparison for me given that I used to live there until

Are they? Do you have a source for that? My impression is that it's easier to find engineering work in Stockholm than in silicon valley atm, but I haven't measured objectively.

How much expensive lab equipment do you need to do something like this? "A quick lil CRISPR switch" sounds like "oh just my homemade fusion reactor hooked up to my kitchen warp drive" to me, yet you make it sound so simp
