I find that most Americans can touch type, but most Danes can’t. I’m Denmark touch typing used to be taught in schools as a voluntary subject, but it mostly appealed to girls who wanted to become secretaries and was eventually abandoned due

Also the multi repo nature of the Tauri project, and the changes to this structure between 1.x and 2.0, makes migration hard.

I remember sitting next to David Rosenthal at a conference reception (must have been FAST, which makes sense given his involvement with LOCKSS) in San Jose some time around 2010 or 2011, not knowing up front who he was. He explained some of

When I bought my first used C64 I got a Vic20 with it for free. After a couple of years I managed to kill the C64 doing some stupid FAFO electronics experiments, and was left with only the Vic20 for my hobby programming for a few months. I

I would argue that BLIS is what you want. It is proper open source and not tied to Intel platforms.

A nice feature of CNNs is that you can change the resolution at inference time without retraining. For instance, when the user plugs in a camera with a different aspect or decides to the change the orientation of his phone from landscape to

Or why your software should never use arbitrary timeouts. Without the 30s timeout this bug would have been caught and fixed before release.

No, we use email instead, as postage is already too expensive. Paper mail is only used for formal stuff like wedding invitations.

I don’t think enough credit is given to the role the GPL played in making Linux successful. The more liberal BSD-style licenses resulted in every hardware maker selling their own slightly incompatible fork of UNIX where las the GPL forced e

Sorry I meant that DeepSeek release their models. Wrong context.

I think people overestimate the amount of secret sauce needed to train these models. The reason AI has come this far since AlexNet is that most of the foundational techniques are easy to share and implement, and that companies have been sur

Given that you can download and use the weights, the model architecture has to be includded as part of that. And I did read a paper from them recently describing their MoE architecture and how it differs from the original GShard.

The value that gets created might not have been created otherwise. The key is taxation, which is where the US and other countries have failed since the Reagan years.

For me the relative tranquility of Mastodon is not a bug but a feature. I deleted my Twitter account shortly after Elon bought it, actually not so much because of him, but to get more time for being with my family and working on my startup.

Same in Denmark, we pretty much had to install one when building our house, to make up for energy loss from the large window area we wanted. We didn't have it properly calibrated at first, but once that was (professionally) done it has

This is well known in the security community, when I was at Bromium around 2011 or 2012 this was shown in internal demos. And the X230 is a very old laptop, hopefully the newer ones have fixed this problem.

They are already massively subsidized and this will only increase their subsidies. In Denmark farmers control government similarly to the way big oil abd gunmakers control government in the US.
