Omarchy is AI slop from an outspoken racist. Use a real distro.

It seems like most of these "an LLM solved this in only X hours! " could have been "I found an open source solution that did what I needed with X minutes of web search." Which doesn't mean that the LLM definitely co

If your Kindle was plugged in the whole time (as you might with a HA dash), my guess would be the shutdowns are battery related, to avoid degradation or possible fire. Consider removing the battery if you haven't already.

Its not a meaningful issue. The passenger density is higher on even a mostly empty bus than cars, and the pollution is lower as well.

Are you near the city center, or out near the suburbs? It's common for a bus to be crowded on one part of the route and nearly empty at the end.

That checks out, right? We're instructing LLMs to choose from the least "surprising" tokens at each step (modulo some temperature). It feels smooth, slippery - no friction to the eyes that glaze over as they skim the text, an

Perhaps we'll all become metaphorical pandas, spending 14 hours a day ingesting nutrient-poor bamboo. (And producing a proportionate amount of excrement ourselves.) I hope not.

Just the other day I was using text-to-speech with Gemini, and for some reason, it transcribed my full query in Hindi (in the middle of an English conversation), and naturally the LLM responded with Hindi as well. I don't know exactly

Surely after 999 escapes, a reasonable person could conclude that the sandbox is not a sufficient precaution?

Presumably, you expected a project that talks about the stench of AI-developed software not to be covered in the stench of AI-developed software.

Sure, you can get into the scam business expecting you'll be the scammer and not the scammed. Statistically, it's not gonna work out. Same as folks buying into MLM and other pyramid-scheme-adjacent things. Lots of them think they&

Also, to be into cryptocurrency, you kind of have to be gullible to begin with.

L1 cache for a M5 is like 128KB, right? So I can't see how it wouldn't.

Model is 4K parameters - I don't know enough about that size of model to know if this impressive or not.

I read it as 3% retire, 3% enter the workforce, and everyone else is slightly better / more senior than the year before. So the average wage could be flat.

Thank you for the correction.

Probably the ever-increasing corporate homogenization, sanitization, and empty words that are flooding the internet (only accelerated by LLMs, of course). Which, for readers playing along at home, is kind of antithetical to the "hacker

Right? As opposed to all those unintentional improvements they usually put in their products.

Honestly, the most likely thing is lots and lots of dead fetuses due to developmental abnormalities. I'd be surprised if it ever got to the point of resulting in a dead infant.

New grads have learnt git and issue trackers as part of standard coursework. Not sure about CI or devops.

To carry on this analogy - do test prep workbooks make you meaningfully more competent in general, or is it benchmaxing? (Versus studying textbooks for a similar time, of course.)

I don't think this is a good argument. There exist digital watermarking techniques for image and video that are imperceptible to humans but still survive cropping, rotation, resizing, recompression, or an analog round trip (photographi

Oh, gotcha. I thought I recalled reading early material that emphasized the flexibility of Mojo emitting MLIR for many tasks, but it's possible that that was either pre-launch, or that I got confused when reading about MLIR itself.
