Local models will never compete with large SOTA models, in the same way an iPhone doesn't compete with supercomputers doing nuclear simulations. They paths will differentiate and split. Probably SOTA models will eventually be locked do

The image editing demo was fun... the model is not very well censored.

Then you sound like the type of client that perfectly fits Bambu's profile. Now, don't come complaining when Bambu decides you need a monthly subscription to use the slicer, or whatever rent-seeking they come up with in the future

Hi Cliff, You captured my imagination as a teenager when I read The Cuckoo’s Egg. I’m so sorry to hear of these terrible news but I appreciate the update. Here’s hoping to a _prompt_ recovery!

And you say this as a prolific open source contributor I’m sure.

Frontier has humans that you can talk to, for a fee. They charge $25 for going to the counter at the airport.

Competition for non-monetary resources is absolutely a thing. Developer time is scarce and other projects can absolutely see others as competitors in this regard. We have plenty of stories of project forks sprouting because of frustration&#

Big players use CATIA and Siemens NX almost exclusively. I don’t know many using Autocad, maybe architectural firms.

I think you might agree with the article if you read it.

If DOGE served for anything at all it was for showing that there isn’t even that much “waste” per se. If there’s any waste it’s in the Pentagon which can’t even audit itself, but of course DOGE didn’t even get close to that. It was all perf

Propaganda aside (which exists), the world is just an extremely complex place and the people writing these things are taking guesses a lot of the time. That’s it.

I think this is the first article that truly gave me “slop nausea”. So many “It’s not X. It’s Y.” Do people not realize how awful this reads? It’s not a novel either, just a few thousand words, just fucking write it and edit it yourself.

About the same amount you had in your comment, to be honest.

I think you are splitting hairs. Yes those models “exist”, if by exist you mean they have dual-licensing setups with different tiers (community, professional, etc). The point is that most individuals who open source their code do so without

Attack the argument not the man. Whether he is set for life or not has nothing to do _in this context_, since, presumably, people who open source their code do not care about profit.

How very typical of non-Americans to misrepresent Americans!

You don't need to explain anything to the government, that's why we have the 5th amendment. It is the government's job to bring charges against you and prove them beyond reasonable doubt. The government is right to investigat

That’s really cool. Scotch tape is just weird, peeling it also generates x-rays (in a vacuum): https://www.technologyreview.com/2008/10/23/217918/x-rays-ma...

It was a demo mission and that change was actually consulted and approved by NASA.

I think the main difference was political: for Apollo you had the most powerful nation in history throw their economic and political will into pushing a project forward. NASA programs today are mainly about creating/maintaining jobs an

You don't test the nozzle on _launch day_, what kind of ridiculous statement is that? You think the Air Force is paying SpaceX so they can test things the day it flies? All components go through several test campaigns on the ground, wh

> When SpaceX launches a rocket, they think it will work. When NASA launches a rocket they know it will work. That is such an ignorant thing to say. You think Falcon 9 has had 500+ successful launches because they _think_ it will work? T

Very clean and polished! I love how smooth the seconds hand move. I work in an environment where we look at the time across many different timezones around the world. A couple of feature requests if you are ever in the mood: 1. Make it

A common pattern is dynamic linking for development and static linking for production-ready releases.

As unsafe as C or C++. In fact, safer, because only the ABI surface is unsafe, the rust code behind it can be as safe or unsafe as you want it to be. I was addressing this portion of your comment: "C's ABI and dynamic linking are

> Until that happens, it'll be hard to adopt Rust in a lot of C/C++ strongholds where C's ABI and dynamic linking are the thing that enables the software to get huge. Wait, Rust can already communicate using the C ABI. In
