Giving me PTSD for working in healthcare. Health Systems love pinning certs, and we use an ALB with 90 day certs, they were always furious. Every time I was like "we can't change it", and "you do trust the CA right?"

Why is a fine even an acceptable resolution? Previously the FTC had been running such that, if it could not prove an acquisition was bad it would approve it. In this case, back in 2012 Instagram was small, didn't charge money, and not

Interesting to see that its tied to gmail, which already has pieces of this and is likely working towards the same things. Notion is vastly superior to Sharepoint, OneNote and Docs, it's a shame MS and Google abuse their position to pu

The purpose of a system is what it does. It was never about saving money, ever. Stop sane washing this whole scam. It was about punishing people, organizations, and regulators who annoyed Elon and Trump. Once you understand that, the whole

Tesla FSD. The last few updates have introduced significant regressions in red light handling, resulting in the car attempting to run red lights about 5x in the last 2 months. Here is an example of how blatant it is: https://www.

I'd argue that 2.5 pro is better because it doesn't suffer from GPT-isms, where its blatantly obvious someone used ChatGPT.

I describe this as the "The TikTok Paradox" When you design a feature for a business app, it has to be immculate, brain dead easy to use, and be explained 9 times in 3 different training seminars before anyone will figure it out.

I am not sure about llama.cpp but it works with Ollama. That's not to say won't need to tweak things when you cut down to smaller models, there are always trade offs swapping models.

California EV ownership seems way less worthwhile than other areas. I've seen so many posts of $.30 per kwh or even more, as high as $.36. That is 2.5x higher than my bill here in Florida, and essentially takes the car from ~80mpg (equ
