News TV channels in Taiwan that I usually watch, very often use videos from Threads for local news reporting (stuff sent in by the public). X-originated ones pretty much disappeared for the same use. This doesn't account for millions o

I still have my Thinkpad X201 from 2011 running, and I use it as my personal machine (have an M1 MacBook from/for work). Of course, had to replace the hard drive once or twice, replaced the whole motherboard once[0], and even though it

This feels like an edge case. The "reasonable limit" is likely set based on experimentation, and thus on how much people post on average and the load it generates (so the real number is unlikely to be exactly "2000", IMH

I found Notion's URL schema interesting as well. They have to contend with renames of pages, reorganisation of the hierarchy and all that. So they have something like: notion.so/:account/Current-Name-of-Page-:pageid

Besides all the other advice of using the password manager as a 2FA store as well, on the stand-alone side there is Aegis. I have good experience with it, and allows better interoperability than Authy as well.

Very interesting, especially when compared to shogi (Japanese chess), where captured pieces can be dropped in anywhere on the board. So for shogi players this "ideal square" calculation can be even more natural and more flexible a

Looking at the two specs, interesting to see how Frontier (the first, running AMD CPUs) has much better power efficiency than Aurora (the second, running Intel), 18.89 kW/PFLOPS vs 38.24 kW/PFLOPS respectively... Good advertisemen

That's a very good question. Likely depends on the circumstances. I don't quite know any ways of using untrusted sources safely. Maybe something where you can use temporary credentials (say 2FA), or the the likes of using AWS'

Whenever I look at those reports, I keep wondering how many automated systems have to be there in place to generate all that. All the waveform records, the intensity maps, etc..., they should be all auto-generated, and likely verified by hu

On that last point, I wouldn't pass around the certificate to log in from multiple sources, rather each source would have its own certificate. That is easy & cheap to do (especially with ed25519 certs).

This should be nice to be easier to integrate with things like Vanna.ai, that was on HN recently. There a bunch of methods need to be implemented to work, but then usual OpenAI buts can be switched out to anything else, e.g. see the code st

It looks like that needs an NVidia GPU which I don't have, or a cloud service, which is out of scope for me. The autocomplete + chat only seem to work on their own model, all the other models currently one or the other. Nonetheles it d

I haven't tried that particular one yet, I might not have enough RAM to run it, though, but gonna give it a try. It seems like one of the larger code-focused local models. Cheers for the suggestion!
