Soundcloud works just fine, FLAC/MP3 streaming, midi files. The problem seems to be isolated to Youtube, its not really about quality of files - something makes the music feel bad but not like first 3-5 min of listening, it appears af

Sounds exceptionally naive, "artists are meant to struggle". Its also extremely self-centered and egotistic to consider this performance art as some "culture jamming"(as labeled by wikipedia), its more of an upper-class

started using RSS feeds a few months ago, they're still widely supported and there are JSON scrapers for those sites that don't. The idea of "reading N accounts" to get some info or some algorithmic soup of "popu

No dropped frame,consistent 60s+ buffer,volume at any setting doesn't affect it. I'm suspecting its the Linux audio stack interfering with something in youtube player, something relatively recent that perhaps expects pipewire(i ha

Its common sense: anything passed in registers(preloaded due spec execution) will outperform stack writes and stack wrangling will outperform heap allocated stuff. That why ugly spaghetti code with tons of globals runs blazingly fast and y

The code in C that suppose to be written like this is usually never written first like that, its like pretending writing minified js by hand from scratch. Usually the code is contracted and "minified" from large program to fit ent

Its useful for writing generic code/template/boilerplate, then customizing it by inserting your own code. For something you already know better, there isn't a magic prompt to express it, since the code is not generic enough

Companies also use Contributor License Agreements and similar legalese(ToS/User Agreement/Company Code of Conduct) to confine their "open source" code into some semi-commercial/proprietary components and "pub

finding random videos is fairly easy these researchers are doing it the dumb brute-force way: 1.Block any famous accounts(1M+views): these poison your recommendations. 2.Like only old and lowest-view videos. 3.Only click on lowest-viewcount

Its a new LLM type: instead of transformers it use state-space machines, which are orders of magnitude faster. Its currently very new and less coherent than GPT-2.

The numerical value of "people on reddit" didn't changes, however the active posters and creative people started migrating to other networks(e.g. Lemmy). The larger subs(100k+) quality has declined from 2022, you can see lot

Lol. I'm not going to "unlock" my accounts. GIthub/Microsoft don't have a monopoly on hosting code.There are better alternatives that don't suddenly force their users to jump through hoops. Hope they introduce

git could be thousand of times more user-friendly, but its too command-line centric, so workflow is limited to complex "sub tool invocations". GUIs for git exist but they add extreme overhead for simple workflows, perhaps some &q

I'm sure the only form of "coding addiction" is optimizing toy programs as hobby or for competing in some sort of public leaderboard. Normal casual coding, and writing down/debugging code is unappealing drudgery that f

I just stopped using Youtube since the first time they tried anti-adblock and now only watch linked videos if at all. I don't trust a platform that threatens its users. And of course, all those extensions/scripts to make Youtube

This is some sort of cellular automata, nothing crackpot about that, perhaps a FPGA demo with it would demonstrate the claims its a superior architecture. There are many exotic architectures like Transport-triggered, Computational RAM and

Ukraine proved drones outplay any defense and at far cheaper cost. You can train pilots, soldiers, tank drivers for years and they are going to die like cannon fodder(or drone fodder) because drones are much cheaper and faster to produce.

Its probably distracting them from rapidly developing features. In stable projects its a much more better incentive to get programmers focus via some gamification techniques like bounties/prizes/competitions. Open source project

More examples, illustrate the range of options and document all special cases. Think from perspective of "what context is this used from?" instead of just listing possibilities. Try to document what is going behind the scenes as
