To get comparable results you need to run those models on at least prosumer hardware and it seems that two beef-up Mac Studios are the minimum. Which means that instead of buying this hardware you can purchase Claude, Codex and many other s

Sign of time, this resembles time when we were moving ahead with processors speed. Two y.o. computer was obsolete (or, in those times, it required an upgrade, as it was possible...).

"In 2026, I don't use an IDE any more." Just a question? What IDE feature is obsolete now? Ability to navigate the code? Integration with database, Docker, JIRA, Github (like having PR comments available, listed, etc), Git? W

The interesting part is not that much Rayleigh scattering - it is obviously very important, but the better question was on WHAT THE HELL light is scattered. Rayleigh had some ideas, like some "dust" that is in the atmosphere, etc.

Well, I watched the video of some former Delta Force officer, who said that you can sharpen your credit card to make a deadly weapon out of it. Let's ban credit cards in the airplanes.

My problem with CC is that it is trying to be very creative. I am asking it to fix some test, or create a new test. What it is doing? It is running grep to find all tests in the code base and parses them. This eats a lot of tokens. Then it

Well, the cycle is over. I remember the rise and the fall of AltaVista search engine. I remember the rise of Google that was able to circumvent all the "old days" SEO efforts by spamming keywords in the HTML headers. Then everyone
