Coal or ash in the smoke means they didn't operate the engine correctly. The smoke is supposed to be quite minimal (in particular relative to the massive amount of exhaust steam) and free from significant solids. Ash is dumped in speci

Not sure if that's just me, but "disimprovement" sounds like *removing* an improvement that was previously there…

"updowngrade", funnily enough, I would understand as having the (IMO misunderstood/wrong) meaning you're trying to give to "Verschlimmbesserung" in your post here https://news.ycombinator.com/it

I don't think either of these 2 quite get the point across with the same "wavelengths" getting included.

無 (the question cannot be answered because it relies on unmet prerequisites) "Verbesserschlimmung" isn't a word in active use & depending on how it (theoretically) were to enter use, its meaning might vary. It could ente

As a German, I might not have thought of that but would absolutely use it to translate Verschlimmbesserung. Does it sound "normal" enough to native English speakers?

It's actually a verb, "Verschlimmbesserung" is the substantivization. Base: verschlimmbessern Present conjugation: I verschlimmbesser[e], you verschlimmbesserst, he/she/it verschlimmbessert, we verschlimmbesser[e]n,

NB: ELF executables and libraries don't need to have sections, or a section header table. The program headers are what matters. You can use sstrip to remove the SHT.

The misunderstanding might be that I'm thinking about how long it takes a human + an AI to get something done, not an AI by itself. My current understanding is that it's still not generally viable to have LLMs perform architectur

In all honesty I don't think it's possible to put this into the model because it's not actually sufficiently understood yet by anyone or anything . AI capabilities are changing too fast, and so is the way AI is used (worst

by eqvinox 1mo ago
A model isn't "aware" of anything. It's trained on things, and that training doesn't include time estimates for working with AI because that didn't exist yet.

Fair point - while it's certainly possible to make a decision per individual library elsewhere, libc is the one thing that really will need to be linked dynamically for glibc, and it'll freeze a minimum version into the binary (i.

If you can figure out your own ELF loader, you can figure out how to build a partially static executable that doesn't need this. You can mix static and dynamic linking. Build tooling around that is just shit.

I mean… my self hosted Postgres with its ca 15 active connections certainly doesn't use PgBouncer, and it doesn't need to. But that was presumably not the intended scope of the question? Then again, people forget you can just run

That's not an argument in this (legal) case since the regulation applies at the time the device is sold. (It just means the applicable law is another one, i.e. the one against recording in secret, which applies regardless of what the r

These glasses have a LED. I haven't seen it for real, but I've heard it's not discernible at daylight. Even so, it might still run afoul of German law. The German radio directive specifically forbids recording devices mad
