In the site says “FACT - 100% of Counties - Hunger exists in everywhere – no community is untouched” What I pretty much suspected. But that in USA 20% of children don’t get enough? That is a big TIL for my ignorance. A sister comment states

Theoretically a good choice, but where I live, just doesn't work. Either they just say "no thanks" or they will be more expensive than letting them do the whole job. I got the "trick" recommended to do the things yo

If is something does happen, and Li Batteries catching fire is not something unheard of, you will be in a world of suffering. Probably having no home, and having to pay damages to the neighbors. All to save what? 2k$... 5k$?

Not so fast. Have you very carefully read the full small print of the insurance policy? Did you review that with a lawyer? Is incredible how different "normal" people vs. lawyers can understand a contract. I'm pretty sure the

I’ve been working for more than 30 years. I was seriously demotivated by managers, but never motivated by them. The beat I got was protection from them to give me free space to work. But the motivation was always internal. Being a manager m

In germany was (still is) illegal to use the car as battery… it is going to change soon though

by f1shy 9mo ago
Those batteries must be connected to the internet to work, and the company could disable them anytime. Same for most of the inverters. I’m just hoping they don’t pull some nonsense like we have seen with other “cloud” devices. In that sense

Well at least ypu and the other commenters made something that worked, which I was unable to do. Seems the key is using a coding agent, not an LLM out of the box like I did.

Exactly. And sometimes even very strange things happen. Currently I know of a company taking lots of positions from Germany to China, people in China are having more money in the pocket per year. The cost to the company are basically the sa

And is not only automotive. Other sectors are also suffering a lot. As you said, finding a new job is not very easy, even if you are ok with 1hs commute. As far as I know, all big companies are moving work outside the EU in a hurry.

I’m sure there is one or another company generating employment. I didn’t stated something different. Did I? I just named a fact. I know people in at least 3 different companies in the list that lost their job last year, and many others whic

Nice. The code I got running from gemini was much much cleaner, it did not work, but after the manual changes it did work. I will hive it a try with the next task: put text and generate primitives like rectangle, circle, polygon, etc…

That is using sb-alien and sb-sys, which basically is no common lisp anymore. That is basically sbcl. I didn’t get anything in that direction (my prompt said nothing about a CL implementation) but I would have rejected it. I just wanted to

I'm exactly on the same boat. To anybody who want to try, a concrete example, that I have tested in all available LLMs: Make a prompt to get a common lisp application which makes a "hello triangle" in open gl, without using S

I have Win10, mac and Ubuntu, in 3 different machines I'm using constantly. None of them is perfect, but windows is just infuriating, macos in the middle, and I can more or less live with ubuntu...

Fun fact: some of those companies are shutting down productions sites as we read this forum...

Maybe. The background of my comment: in the end of 90's I worked in a company doing professional audio in windows. We had multiple cards, with multiple inputs and outputs, different sampling frequencies, channels, bits per sample... Th

Thanks. I expressed it with doubt, because I assume there had to be some way around. If I understood correctly, the halting problem states you cannot make a program to test any program. But you can do if you test a relatively small, possi

I don’t know where they come from, but I try to avoid all in that list. To be fair, audio is a train wreck anyway.

Yes. For sure we will never be able to 100% automate the whole SWE process. As you say, the first input is a human wish, and there comes the joke of the genie that always screw the wishes by leaving something obvious out, because not explic

This is so much true! Indeed you can find absolutely everywhere absolutely incredible brilliant people in any area you want. The reason for the 1st and 3rd world is that is difficult to come by enough people and then coordinate them: is abo
