Whenever a game is available on Steam and GOG, I buy the GOG version for that reason. Everything guaranteed to be DRM-free.

I do not. I just needed a small computer for miscellaneous jobs, such as file serving and emulation. I think this is the case with most people who buy one.

I like your project because you try to compare the performance of different chatbots. At the same time, I certainly wouldn't say it's more complete than the paper - your landing page is somewhat superficial. Reading both is better

It's a no brainer IMHO. I stopped using my Pis after the N100s appeared on the market and have been advocating them since then. I like the idea of using ARM, but the value and convenience simply isn't there. The Pi remains great f

One has to wonder how the United States survived before the rise of Asian manufacturing... As recently as the 1980s we had full computers made in the US. We can get it back, at least the more interesting parts of it. If this movement was be

In the US Southeast the cheapest trim is $29,250. Maybe you're talking about hybrid in Australian/Canadian dollars?

I'm sorry, but this is a terrible article - I wonder if written by AI itself. The AI usage appears to be minimal and not so different than what "regular algorithms" did in the past. Most importantly, they won't use works

The arguments are simplified, but they are there. There's a lot to it beyond "God exists because I say so", especially if you dig deeper. I think they are valuable even if you dont believe in the existince of a Christian God.

Is this an emulation problem or are the online copies corrupted? You can buy an original copy of the game on eBay and run it in Dosbox-X or Dosbox-staging, both well ahead vanilla Dosbox in features. Also, I bet the Internet archive or exoD

Genius. Tell us a couple more old soviet jokes! It might be against the HN rules but maybe they will let it slide given the fascination for the Soviet Union here.

Yes. And I think SQL is actually pretty good for what it does. My point, as the parent's (I suppose) is that we've heard this "XYZ, which uses natural language, will kill software development" before.

You're joking but it's true. I'm sure you know that. SQL had similar claims... Declarative, say what you need and the computer will do for you. Also written in English.

I'm a "computer scientist" does a bit better than "software engineer" if you want to sound smarter. The distinction doesn't matter for most people.

If you're into supercomputers like I am, make sure to check the Museum of Technology and Art in Roswell, GA. They have dozens of them, including Crays, on display.

I had plenty of time and leisure activities throughout my US career. Plenty of money for hobbies, toys and a house. I had the deportation risk while waiting for the Greencard. But I'd happily go back to my birth country with a ton of m

Salaries in Europe are just a fraction of what you can get in the US. The quality of life for a good Software Engineer in most of the US is very high. As a foreign-born Software Engineer living in the US, I'd never trade it for Europe

How do you solve the catch-22 of security clearance? It seems that a lot of jobs require it but not so many people want to pay for me to get it. Is it possible to get clearance by myself on the side (assume I'm willing to deal with the
