I recently investigated some problematic behaviour of both Opus 4 and Sonnet 4. When tasked to develop something more complicated (broker fed task management system, staggered execution scheduler) they would inevitably produce thousands of

I mostly use it to understand and fix my bugs/Rust compilation problems that I can't be bothered to fix. 95% happy with the results so far. For coding I use Claude in chat though, as my thoughts are mostly not clear enough at the

This must be the quintessential example of a Turing tarpit. In TypeScript types, everything is possible, but nothing of interest is easy.

From my experience operating it I reckon it does the following: after you fill it and start, it starts heating and measures the time it takes to reach 100°C. This allows it (in the rice program) to figure out the amount of mass present and

Its baffling how they can reconstruct such an ancient event that happened so far away.

I've been to Café Central. There was a waiter standing outside telling you only to come in whenever a seat has been vacated. Once in it didn't feel crammed, and it was quite the sight. Don't eat "Sacher Torte", it&#

Parents thinking was probably: If you can achieve similar results with a fraction of memory/compute usage then capability at the same hardware level will increase even more.

ECC RAM would have probably helped, but that got axed in consumer CPUs probably due to financial optimizations. They wanted to have ECC as an upsell feature for 'server grade' products. That was pretty short sighted.

That's the reason I chose AMD for my own laptop. AFAIR Intel doesn't support ECC.

Nature will die with 100% certainty. That is a verified fact due to the coming life-cycle changes of our sun. Nothing will survive that. Only humans have a chance to save "nature" by bringing life along to the stars. Not sure if w

The amount of beer consumed in Bavaria is on a decreasing trend. Breweries are worried and some are looking into exports. Times are changing.

This technology is useful for small production volumues only though. It's too slow to produce chips at 5nm at high volumes. If it's also that much cheaper such that you can just throw money at it to produce in parallel, then it ma

To install Windows with only a local account, you have to disable Internet access (unplug cable or disable WiFi), then that option magically appears. Once done, reactivate access and continue. For most other cruft like games and such there

Regarding gasoline: the question is how much of that energy is actually converted into motion instead of heat. With electric mirrors it's more than 90%, with gasoline it's more like 30-40%.

But they are also not exactly against hiring them, as they are not yet used to the fair level of wages they should demand. Cheap labor = good, right? I know of cases where equally qualified (University degree, etc.) Syrians received 20% to

> Sure, Germany doesn't particularly need criminal immigrants, but the criminality of immigrants is wildly blown out of proportion by racists, to put it bluntly. Thanks. Had a good laugh at that line. :) I remember that there was an

Even if Germany wouldn't have a minimum wage it wouldn't change the fact that German people won't work for the conditions you outlined. So for Germans this won't change anything anyways. Either the companies lower profit

I can only agree here, because I saw it with my own eyes. If not for a group of dedicated volunteers in my town, most of the Syrian refugees would just be lost causes. The group organized transportation to job applications (it's in the

I remember this ad. I read a different book from the same publisher back in the days and was completely offended by having an ad in a book I just bought. The upside was that it could be removed without removing any text from the book.

ctrl-f Elm yields no results. It seems Elm is not even part of the discussion anymore. I get it, it didn't get a release in 4 years, but the path it showed was pleasant and robust. Why did nobody pursue it further, or did someone, and

My dishes already stink after going through the dish washer whenever I had food with eggs on plates or pans. Adding sodium bicarbonate to the detergent compartment seems to do the trick though.
