I wonder what the point of this blog is. It's kinda easy to rip on certificates without giving atleast one possible way of fixing this, even if it's an unrealistic one. Sure, the low-level nitty gritty of managing keys and certifi

I got a call from the country service manager. Telling me I caused quite a ruckus. They offered to sell me the part for something like 75 Euro's or something I believe. Which was still an outrageous amount of money for a HEPA filter. B

Calling an LLM AI or saying it will ever do AGI is like arguing a washboard and a tub can be called a washing machine. Sales people are so extraordinarily bad at seeing the difference because they are only interested in making sales.

What I did once is lookup the financial report of the company, find all the board members and C level execs l, figured out what their email structure looks like (pete.whatever@company.com) and just walked them through my support experience.

I don't get why this is noteworthy? It's literally a piece of code in a Rust "unsafe" block. If you put something in an "unsafe" block the compiler isn't going to help you, you are on your own. That's

The way we fund the AI bubble in the west could also be described as: "kind of cheat on the fair market". OpenAI has never made a single dime of profit.

We've had these in the Netherlands for about a decade or something. You also get a 35% discount on the products with a sticker on them. The sticker says something like: "shame if had to be thrown away".

In Java with Maven these have a special suffix, "-SNAPSHOT". So "1.0.0-SNAPSHOT". Releases, like "1.0.0" are immutable once released. I always thought that was a pretty sane model.

Seriously? You are claiming something is "undisputable" without citing any source or making any attempt at all to explain why that would be. I guess we really do live in a "post truth world" with people like you.
