In 2014 I bought a used RM desktop PC for my parents for £50 from eBay, which came with the tower, keyboard, mouse and all cables. I had an old monitor laying around, but again, easy to pick up if needed. They still use it today.

I'm currently working for an Estonian startup and we pay quite a bit more than that. We hire remote (primarily across Europe) and our biggest issue is finding the right people. You need to consider AI can be "hired" or "

For BBC World Service the shift to digital led to a 11% drop in audience. Maybe not quite the same, as the target market is often developing countries (I live in a EU country and they are only just introducing DAB this year). https:/&

Not sure I agree it would be better, but yes, what exactly is the obsession with stars? Some repos even have a chart in the readme that shows their star progression. That tells me what exactly?

It's pretty common for this generation of vehicles, especially diesel. This was before all the environmental things were added, which may be good for pollution, but are terrible for longevity. In parts of Europe everyone has diesels, s

> DeepSeek-V4-Flash is the cheapest of the small models, beating even OpenAI’s GPT-5.4 Nano. GPT-5 Nano should really be in the list too. It is $0.05 input and $0.40 output - and half that if you use the Flex tier. Last week I upgraded a

How does the hardware work? It seems like there isn't any radio hardware other than the ESP, so that can natively receive the ITS-G5 messages? Why not just use an ESP board with native ethernet then?

For a vehicle with a highly visible unique identifier on the front and rear? In my country basically every private carpark has ANPR cameras, the tech is dirt cheap now.

How much more is the BOM for a silent fan like in Noctua? I recently bought a controller for my well water pump, and it has two 80mm fans for cooling. Sounds like an aircraft when taking off and doesn't seem to move much air. I'm

Interesting that the memory in the laptop is upgradeable or bring-your-own, where as in the Framework Desktop it is soldered. How does that work?

I think the reason is two fold: - If you pay for unlimited trips will you choose the Ferrari or the old VW? Both are waiting outside your door, ready to go. - Providers that let you choose models don't really price much difference betw

Isn't this just because they will be refreshed soon, rumours are around June. I'd imagine Apple stops making the old hardware a few months before a refresh and then just sells the old stock. Maybe they had shorter contracted order

The work going into local models seems to be targeting lower RAM/VRAM which will definately help. For example Gemma 4 32B, which you can run on an off-the-shelf laptop, is around the same or even higher intelligence level as the SOTA m

How is your physical activity? I used to get really tired at work after lunch, and after I started regularly going to the gym it fixed that. My energy levels throughout the day are now a lot more stable. Didn't fix my insomnia though :

If you want something off the shelf get a MacBook Pro M5 (base "Pro" CPU) with 48GB RAM: Gemma 4 31B Q6: 9tok/s, I'd say it is smarter than GPT-4o, but yeah it's slow. Good for coding. Gemma 4 26B A4B Q4: 50tok/

Also location. In my country, saunas at home aren't as common in Finland, but basically every gym has one. So the people that use the sauna the most, are likely to be the most active.
