On a tangent, maybe we can save reading by doing more flash fiction?

Why weird? I share this position. The LLMs have been trained on countless introductory tutorials for most popular topics, so they will provide you with a reasonable one. Ad and friction free for now. Enjoy it while it lasts.

With the discrete GPUs pricing themselves out of the consumer space, we may actually need to switch back to software rendering :)

Thing is, you don't need a GPU. One of the major x86 manufacturers makes CPUs with integrated graphics that is good enough for gaming. It's in "Steam's hardware line" btw. Oh yes, AAAs maybe won't run on that.

Your experience sharing is also information, not content. It doesn't have to be a technical manual or a self improvement text. What I call content is ... well, content ... produced not because you have something to say but because you&

My opinion is "content" was slop even before "AI". If you're worried about producing "content", the completion bots have caught up with you. See the other posts calling the article "a Linkedin post&qu

Random fact: I'm involved in a Windows project and there's a CreateWindowEx that can be either instant or take like 7 seconds on the win 11 machines. When it's slow it takes 3 seconds on win 10.

My deodorant isn't available in those small travel containers :( And it's the only thing i really care about, I can do with any random toothpaste and shaving foam that i buy on arrival. But maybe it will happen in my lifetime.
