Up until not too long ago I assumed that self-hosting an llm would come at an outrageous cost. I have a bunch of problems with LLM's in general. The major one is that all LLMs(even openAI) will produce output which will give anyone a g

So much this. But there is a fine line somewhere in there. I have seen and admittedly worked on such projects where time constraints simply do not allow you to polish all bits and pieces. That's perfectly reasonable during POC/ear

No, you've achieved much more and I'd be curious to give it a spin some day when I finally find the motivation and time and work on some games. Sadly I'm swarmed with much larger stuff atm, even in my spare time :(

I am saying this in a very good way: I was 10 years old(give or take) when I started fiddling about with Macromedia(later acquired by Adobe) Flash 4 and the screenshots gave me so many flashbacks, like making dumb animations, fiddling with

I was never really a fan of ICQ even back in the early days of my teenage years when it was big. I just never saw it's appeal. That said > You can chat with friends in VK Messenger and with colleagues in VK WorkSpace Heeeeeeeeeeeeee

Here's a hypothetical but very real scenario: someone discovers a vulnerability in openAI's API (vulnerabilities are everywhere these days), you prompt it to do something for you and it sends the following command: tar -czf bla.ta

Honestly, seeing startups die and people abandoning their blogs(of which I'm also guilty, despite my best intentions, I just happen to pay my domains for 10 years at a time), I would have expected the number to be much higher.

That is valid for any centralized service in general. Fun fact: I am working on something in that field in my spare time(whenever I have both time and motivation) and I opted for LoRa instead specifically for that reason, even though it com

That would be a good argument if it wasn't for the thousands of videos of men, women and children getting raped and killed and russians gloating in the comment sections. Something which telegram is notorious for.

Let me set a few things straight: Telegram is for the most part tiktok for people that don't mind putting some effort into reading on a few odd occasions. Saying that I have a lot of Ukrainian friends would be an understatement and the

I have managed to learn most of those the hard way. That said, the case in number 20 kinda surprised me though: My country did the same in the 90's and although I was a child back then, I have a good recollection of how that happened:

Assuming this is more of a proof of concept/prototype, that's not bad. It didn't get it[1] right, but at it's core, the guess is not terrible, shift it 560km[2] south-east and you'd be bang on. I'll admit, I di

I beg to differ: I've been critical of Musk for a million and one reason and each time I have, my comments have been flagged. Likely this one will be too, time will tell.
