They made a kind of strange decision with Qwen3.8 27B, the template defaults the reasoning_effort to xhigh. I found if you set it to medium it doesn’t just sit there churning forever.

What are people doing to maximize the value out of workflows like this? I’ve struggled to integrate other models into my workflow because you get so much Opus for the $100 Max 5x plan, then there’s no step down with Claude Code access. Some

You’ve hit on something that I think deserves to be called out more directly — all of the things you pay for have significant non-software aspects. It is pretty hard to make something people will pay for without tackling some hard problem o

The entire system firmware is open source, so it’s relatively straightforward to replace the system firmware with Coreboot and EDKII to boot normal UEFI Linux. It works excellent. mrchromebox.tech and docs.chrultrabook.com have all the nitt

I still like the old “made with <3” meme. Maybe it’s because nowadays, I’ve been doing way less software professionally so it’s able to be my hobby again, and it feels fitting.

I’ve seen N150 and N200 around a bit, both are a touch better than N100 for usually around the same price if you can find them.

You can code review it for yourself, it’s open source: https://github.com/apple-oss-distributions/Chess/tree/Chess-... IIRC it does just set a time limit on thinking

You might also look at “semi-private” solutions like JSX, if they go where you want to go. Should significantly cut down on the time outside of the flight itself.

If you disable the firewall with a “master disable” I suspect IPv6 routes through on at least some routers. Meanwhile if the NAT is disabled, it almost surely takes the route with it, and even if it somehow routes thorugh you probably won’t

I haven’t had a chance to use it for code yet but now that Opus 4.5 and Gemini 3 Pro came out I started throwing side by side queries at both and Gemini has been consistently more accurate and useful. A bit of a shame because I find Gemini’

If it was so lucrative, wouldn’t more people set up shop undercutting the current offerings? Why not become an HVAC installer and make millions, if you’re really able to make $15k profit on a job you can turn out in a day. The truth is prob

For what it’s worth, the original ESP32 is actually 5V tolerant, semi-officially acknowledged by Espressif. Good enough for hobby projects, anyway

We haven’t been asleep. We’ve been saying no at every turn. But they’re using propaganda, and they will continue until something sticks. It’s an endless fight and we are losing, despite our efforts.

For the same reason people see movies in theaters now, even when there’s day-in-day streaming releases right? It’s a social experience and there’s plenty of demand for that.

It already is- to some extent. I see a ton of TikToks on friends feeds that are scenes from the TV show Friends but they’ve generated video of baby versions of each character to say the lines. I haven’t seen them replace the audio but you c

I believe if you have a financial incentive not to release source / binaries then that’s a good financial incentive to keep the servers up. If such a mandate doesn’t result in actually releasing anything but instead properly incentiviz

Yes, I suggest they divulge the intellectual property. Games are an art form similar to paintings or music, and we as a society should be able to experience previous art. Keep the IP while you run the servers and sell the game, when you are

The more I dig into systemd the more I like how it works. Are there still problems popping up with systemd? Anecdotally, I had a couple user-facing problems that were caused by PulseAudio but never systemd actually being broken.

SD Express is fundamentally PCIe + NVMe in a different package, so the technology is prepared to hit incredible speeds when the fastest flash gets physically small and efficient enough to fit.

That’d certainly be a good step, but I think it still only incentives them to hear you out. Since in this case you would have demonstrated to them that you were a customer that risks costing them money (in the form of this appeal if nothing

Borland as of a few years ago also ships a clang fork for C++ Builder, interestingly enough. It unfortunately does not solve all of the problems you encounter using C++ Builder in the modern age. I’ve personally watched the enshittification

This is largely a package manager problem. There is a way to run Homebrew (the package manager widely used on macOS) on Linux in a rootless mode, and it will install packages into your home directory no problem. It’s a good trick to have in

I have a Retroid Pocket Flip that I’ve loved for this exact reason. It’s just about powerful enough for Gamecube. More recent iterations are definitely powerful enough, and Gamecube is the library I love to play most.

I think there’s a place for “we did 99% of the work here, but we want you to be able to tweak things if you need, read the code, and compile it for new systems without us in the loop.” In that case I see no problem with the main sponsor com
