You are being silly about "the law!!!", right? I do agree that soon we'll have best movies with human actors, best movies with some AI actors, best movies with all AI actors. And then the academy will resist movies with AI ac

That number 333MT means millions of transistors per square millimeter, I get from that linked ars tecnica article. That seems like a much better way to compare different technologies in chip fabrication, because of the well known fact that

Actually I think we have evidence there isn't any existence after death. Many religions claims various different things. Does everyone just get their own wish fulfillment? Probably not. There are various random claims of proof of somet

Has the fsf ever sued anyone for violating gpl? I'd donate for that. Not because I want to destroy them, just push companies to release their mods. Based on what I've read about the ras pi hardware, without any info here, I&#x27

Not where I am. Mt Rainier can't reach me but maybe the mountains of Mordor could spring up? Maybe a new volcano, would take a while to build up. An earthquake can get me, I'm by one of the freshwater lakes, so there's possib

Can you explain why existing batteries don't store energy well? I don't have to use energy to crack natural gas or water. I don't have to worry about the hydrogen leaking out and catching into an invisible fire. I don't

Great points. Plus almost everyone always gets downvoted for everything, then it comes back. I always wonder why many of my "brilliant" comments get downvoted, but often come back by the next day.

The book has much worse terrible treatment of women than the movie. If I recalled correctly there was some plot point about the computer trying to understand human behavior related to sex I guess, so it sets up some terrible scenario.

Yeah, the us did kick it off in Iran. Then religious extremists managed to transition that to longterm despotic control of the country. Before the us overthrew the former govt, Iran wasn't exactly an unconquerable empire for a very lon

Can you provide a reference for this? My web search didn't find a result.

They forgot to add, however, "97.5% of our sales were in that 5th category last quarter, suck it liberals!". And we are only starting in the last 3 days of calendar year 2025.

It's got better components than most intel chromebooks. I updated my storage and ram. But yeah, it ain't the cheapest one.

Can you give an example so I can try it on mine? I tried 3 years ago and it didn't work, but they are constantly enhancing it.

Yeah, this is my sense too. They will be slower to add these new requirements but they should be able to add these vector capabilities within a year or so. It's then a question of ability of smaller vector db companies to mature and ad

Think of recursive as running dev tools that are running vms in them, say running mulitpass inside crostini - https://www.techrepublic.com/article/multipass-is-a-new-tool... .

by rnk 3y ago
Are you aware of the crostini subsystem? You can run linux apps, you have a shell, it's a vm separated from the rest of the system, but everything works like native apps. X window apps look normal. You can run anything, firefox, emacsx

The saluspa from "bestway" demands your location before allowing you to setup wifi remote control of the portable hot tub on the android app. I wonder how on android I can spoof the location used by an app, or if anyone figured ou

If you have an interest in ras pi - especially for tech info interesting to a programmer - you'll probably enjoy the stuff that Jeff Geerling puts out. He has youtube videos and tries out things that software engineers are likely inter

The US could decide to tax us all a small bit to make aca cheaper, or even free, just add required payroll taxes to cover it. No one wants to pay more taxes but we'd be so much better off and pay less for healthcare if we worked throug

The display and keyboard would be fun to have where I interact with the ras pi directly; I don't need to attach another sbc to a ras pi of course; but where is there such a neat display and keyboard that I could get for a pi? I have se

because of the display and low power use, I'd pay somewhere between 75 and $100 for one of them in a plastic case with some easy power supply/connection like maybe a usb plug-in port? It's such a cool display and keyboard. An

That's an important point that obmacare is too expensive for non-wealthy people and we should change that. For the reasonably well off programmer types like a lot of us, I saw it as a thing i could afford in the transition time before

In the us there's obama care before age 65. I bet a lot of gen x programmers are thinking if they have 7 or 10 years till 65, and they retire in late 50s, how will they cover retirement until then (when they might take social security
