I think they will have the revenue for this, and also - it is on par with the capital expenditures of the railroad industry in the 19th century in today's dollars. Given what they trying to do, it makes sense.

Smart money is sent to the regions of the world where it creates the most value, it's simple as that.

Specifications are important. The better the specs of a commercial product, the easier it would be to produce an open source version it, with coding and testing automation perhaps even a one-to-one offering.

Perhaps compacting the context can be made in multiple requests over smaller and overlapping chunks to avoid using the 'dumb zone', and for yielding a better result.

Curious enough, I tried the same prompt with Qwen3.6-27B. One shot produced a game with no sheeps. I had to told it to fix two bugs then. Overall, the graphics and games seems good enough and better than most of the closed models that were

I'm not following this argument. I think there's no real reliability difference between having SHA256-verified dependencies by lock file and vendoring the same dependencies into the codebase. If there's a concern with crates.

I wonder what additional kind of software will flag themselves in the future as 'algorithmic', or no-AI. And what kind of non-software services will flag themselves as such.

Nice infographics, but they have not factored in the quite significant income coming from Google and Anthropic deals (around ~$2.8B per month IIRC).

AFAIK Michael Burry is shorting it via PUT options — can look into what he is doing.

Thanks, but I'm too old to switch - will wait for the Neuralink implant.

> Elevator achieves performance on par with or better than QEMU's user-mode JIT emulation. I am not sure what QEMU's JIT is doing (in its userspace wrapper), but I think it has a lot of room to improve. In 2013 I wrote a x86-64

Since 2022 I have coded something similar for myself, only for Linux for each of my notes, e.g. each and each every small or big task gets its own bundle of things that are attached to its 'task note'. Each note gets a wholesome &

Third solution is "taxation through inflation" in which the official inflation is 4%, the unofficial one is 10%, interest rates kept low, and over a few decades the debt gets nominally trimmed down against a nominally rising GDP.

Yes (coLinux author). What I especially like about this Windows 9x Subsystem project, is that it proves that coLinux could have been written way earlier. Now imagine how less dual booting we would have needed in 1996 if that happened, and

I use Qwen 3.5 122B on an RTX PRO 6000 with open code, and very pleased. I don't feel a need for using a closed model any more. The result after answering questions in Plan mode is almost always what I want, with very few occasional bu

The issue with static recompilation are edge cases such as self modifying code, or code copying a variations of itself to be executed on the stack, jump tables of structure that cannot be inferred from analysis without solving for the halti

Yeah, it would be ridiculous that the IRGC terrorist regime, which fired super-inexact ballistic missiles that split to cluster bombs that spread in 70 parts on a 3 miles radius in residential areas, for a whole month, on a daily basis, wou

Alternative, you can check whether there are duplicates under $PATH resolutions - binaries that can come from more than one place in $PATH. #!/usr/bin/env -S cargo eval -- // cargo-deps: derive-error=&quot

No war in history has completely avoided any civilian casualties or attacks on civilian populations, as even limited conflicts often involve indirect harm (e.g., from stray fire, blockades, or displacement), and larger wars almost inevitabl

I wonder didn't they used VDO thin provisioning with LVM2. Also, a few years ago I've implemented VM management tool called 'vmess', in which the concept is to maintain a tree of QCOW2 files, which R/W snapshots a

It is very unlikely that Israel will ever withdraw its 500,000 citizens from Judea and Samaria, given the result from the 8,000 citizen withdrawall from Gaza. An equal territorial exchange is much more realistic, as part of a two-state comp

There are various hardware singletons that need to be managed for this to work properly. This raises many questions. Which of the kernel does the PCI enumeration, for instance, and how it is determined which kernel gets ownership over a PCI

I dislike flash cards, preferring to answer open questions instead, where you have to fill a word in a sentence. Open questions also prevent rot learning. LLMs are really good at generating such open questions. E.g. "The committee was
