I was also going to mention wet bulb temperatures as well. As horrible as the conditions described in the article is, it describes a very dry heat. Which means sweating and water can still help. The really scary thing will be when the wet b

There's a 64MB game boy advance cartridge with shrek on it [1]. Looks pretty horrible [2]. But the GBA only has 16KB fast / 256KB slow RAM, and a 16MHz CPU. [1] https://archive.org/details/Shrek-Video-GBA [2]

I only used Claude first time in April, previously only ChatGPT and Gemini. And I struggle to see what the hype is all about - yes it seems a tiny bit smarter than the pack, but on the 20$ subscription it runs out of tokens in 5-20 minutes,

You need to do mid-frame tile updates just to show a full bitmap frame. There’s 360 8x8 tiles on the screen, but the tile indices are 8 bit (you can only reference 256 tiles). You can store only 384 tiles in VRAM - a bit more than a full sc

Funny how Gemini is theoretically the best -- but in practice all the bugs in the interface mean I don't want to use it anymore. The worst is it forgets context (and lies about it), but it's very unreliable at reading pdfs (and li
