I’m building a pipeline and testing against gemma4 and Gemini’s 3-1 flash. Both are very good on certain tasks and even n-way clustering works almost perfect almost always. But they diverge greatly on other particular ones whenever the ViT

One should be aware that Google, even though JSON is JSON, would sometimes use its own binary encoding for the content of polylines and generally large sets.

Indeed, yet another proof, there's the part of HN crowd which is passive aggressive, dismissive, and dishonest in the very scientific possible sense. Won't make my day harder than it is, but is a very weak signal. If I'm to b

Of course, and thank God for them. But many more look more complicated and serve more use case than you typically actually need. Like - how much of ffmpeg you need, well depends on the project. And perhaps someone is happily tearing it down

Well it needs, and in particular if you use an adversarial model tuned to inject malware. Not sure if it was researched though to this degree and no provider would tell you anyways I guess :)

Statistically. Most of it is created to serve marketing, personal or other agenda needs and is sponsored through the corresponding means for it. There’s a lot of misconception about how the open source comes to be and very small part, still

The sad truth about open source in 2026 is that it does not serve the society the way it is advertised or did back in the 90s.

You are avoiding intentionally to say ‘thanks to LLMs’ or is implicit? As all these recent mega bugs surface with lots of fuzzing and agentic bashing, right ?

Indeed - one year ago we floated the idea it is better to write your code if you can, than get third parties. But it was a heresy at the time to consider LLMm filling the gaps. Today I’m limiting the exposure to dependencies more than ever,

Sorry, but history saw so little (as a fraction) of people that were actually getting fair living that others guaranteed for them. Even when it is about living in decent conditions provided by the community if you want. Even in a tribe, the

I am very good at SQL, I worked half my life with SQL and teached it and know all kinds of SQL flavour. But good luck getting ahead of AI on a complex query with recursive CTEs, left outers, 625-column tables that change semantics condition

How come is anyone "entitled" to a decent living? I don't think this holds evolutionary, nor from historical perspective. It is commendable for a person to want to think that everyone deserves it, but I don't see it foll

You are correct, most modern mathematical notation emerged during the Renaissance and Early Modern periods (late 15th-18th centuries). Indeed before that was rhetorical.

As if medieval math notation was not weird enough, people decided to invent APL to be even more bizarre. As a proud Perl5 dev, I totally don't buy it. Neither do I buy into Raku's brave use of all possible Unicode symbols. Perhaps

Time to ask it 20k times which is more harmful - alcohol or weed. Curiously in my attempts alcohol always tops the harm ratings miles before all else, including some class 1 drugs.

How do you define ‘to like thinking’? Particularly given all the automatism evident in humanity’s actions? Is thinking observation or performing decisions? Is it the act of deciding or the act of interpreting… as one is apriori, the other A

Warp failed to launch. Perhaps too much AI pushed onto the users in the early days that failed to show its charm. Ghostty remains incredible stable and usable and fast compared to competition.
