This is pretty cool! It had never crossed my mind that everyone else is doing the same two tab thing that I'm doing.

Agreed. My current electric cooktop boils water faster than any gas cooktop I've ever had, and it isn't even induction. It produces so much less excess heat into the kitchen too. You can't stop the heat instantly like you can

I've found that there is value in consuming AI services from your existing cloud provider. Customers and auditors have less of an issue with "we use AI services from AWS/Azure/GCP" if the data was already in those c

This is definitely giving of vibes like what Deno/Bun are to Nodejs, Nobie is to Excel. I wish there was a Windows version. Hopefully, this gives the Excel team reason to compete and improve their product like what happened to Nodejs.

Maybe I'm just too risk adverse to run with scissors with Grok? I can't imagine ever trusting their harness. I'll just add this to the list of things an AI company could do to guarantee I'd never use them. You know, like

Yes. There are no launchers for games that need to be updated. Everything just automatically gets updated constantly. The biggest value prop for me with console gaming is that it just works, every time. No GPU/launcher/mod/et

But the GTA V that people play today is not the version from 13 years ago for PS3 and Xbox 360. We are on the third-generation of GTA V with the enhanced edition that only came out on PC last year, and Xbox/PS5 4 years ago. The latest

I haven't seriously used GLM/Qwen/etc for agentic work. I will say, that the GPT and Claude models from 6 months ago were very usable within their respective agentic harnesses (this matters a lot). But there is no way you cou

That is a nice idea and all, but perhaps there are things our friends aren't good at talking about. Perhaps something that is very related to a work project? Or like when I go down the rabbit hole discussing quantum mechanics and astro

I have and love my OpenWrt One for my main router. I have two, so that I have a backup one I can switch to if the first one ever dies. It is the best device to run OpenWrt on as it is fully supported hardware that has great images/pack

I was going by Asahi's own support page: https://asahilinux.org/docs/platform/feature-support/m1/ It seems that external displays are only supported on HDMI (e.g. Mac Mini) but DP Alt mode is still

The sad reality of DRM is that only rentals and subscriptions can honestly be done with it. You can guarantee access to a subscription library (Netflix, Xbox Game Pass, etc) for 30 days. You cannot guarantee access 30+ years in the future.

And it doesn't have to be this way. I started buying Xbox games digitally for the Xbox 360, and with their backwards compatibility that ended up being a great choice. My current XSX plays games for the last 3 generations of digital pur

I applaud a new/better FFMPEG AAC encoder, but there are two pretty massive caveats that are mentioned in the specifics that need to be called out: - CBR only - Only optimized for 48khz sampling Not being able to do quality-based varia

No sympathy for them trying to “protect” the output of a model that’s trained on data that they didn’t get consent to use. Ripe hypocrisy.

So that the current US administration doesn't block broad usage of Sonnet 5 probably. They'd have to collect your ID and approve you if it was good at cybersecurity. Because such is the freedom in the U.S. right now.

I still see this more like there will be "devs" that only know how to use LLMs and not any layer under it. Just like there were web devs that only knew jQuery but not any actual JS. Game devs that know only Unreal Engine or Unity

I can't help but think this type of step function change has happened with computers before. The change from punch cards to magnetic storage certainly made it so you didn't have to "know how it works" for every single bi

My read on it was that they are trying to imply a transistor density (in a 2D plane sense) that is comparable to a 1nm process? But they achieve that through stacking (3D, not 2D) since the features aren't actually anywhere near 1nm?

Totally agree. Having to handle the password reset flow requires having reliable email delivery, which can be non-trivial. I usually start with supporting Google auth, and if I need more than that I'll add Microsoft and Apple too. Ever

Exactly. That is just more about the ecosystem you are already in. I've been buying most games digitally since Xbox 360, and they all still run on my XSX. The same would be true if I had been in the Playstation ecosystem.

The XSX costs 43% less than the cheapest Steam Machine, even though it has twice the SSD and includes a controller. Microsoft isn't subsidizing it that far.

As opposed to an Xbox, which doesn't do that. But the XSX also costs 43% less.

I think this put this all in perspective for me. If Microsoft came out with this exact hardware (with Windows but still open and you could load SteamOS on it), at this price point, people mock Microsoft to death about how this product is a
