I work with embedded products that has a SD in them, and we have used Swissbit but moved to GreenLiant "Industrial Card" cards. We do _extensive_ testing of these in-house. Like restarting machines 10000 times etc. We have never s

How many benchmarks for LLMs are there out there? Is there any evidence of over-fitting on benchmarks, or is there truely hidden parts to them?

Their "disover weekly" has never been great for me. But their DJ is perfect.. its what I listen to 99% of the time tbh. No AI slop as far as I can tell :)

Same as self-driving cars 10 years ago? Yeah...

Well, this is fun: try "how would I reverse a list in python" in the 1.5b model. It never stops thinking for me, just spewing stuff! It doesn't even seem to be repeating... fascinating! Asking it to be terse produced this bea

But in general IRC is not really archived etc? So just as throw-away as Discord imo.

Finance sites using passwords feels... so off. I do use Kraken somewhat, and they have a passwors still, but also use an authentication app. In Sweden no bank has used passwords online.. ever I think? It has always been 2-factor of some kin

I would agree with that! It matches the curvature of the fuselage in one point, and there is an image with faintly visible nav lights on this page: https://www.anthelionhelicopters.com/flight-training/add-on-... which

Odd, one of those pictures clearly show either a regular RC helicopter, or a full-scale helicopter. You can see the boom and tail light clearly. And no sound associated with it? There are designs for "silent" blades. I mean theyre

Sweden here, and I get less than one spamm call per year I would say, likely from abroad since in Sweden you can easily opt-out of marketing calls, except from companies where you are already a customer, which can be annoying enough.

I cry every time I think about the fact that I managed to CPU-mine 50 btc, and sold it for nothing. Still, I did get a payout from the mtgox disaster and its a decent amount really, considering I put in less than 100$ from the start. Just f

The problem is that using public chargers is, at least in Sweden, so expensive compared to home charging that its suddenly an even worse economic choice to buy an EV. Using public DCFCs (even slow chargers are expensive) the cost is ofte co

In Sweden advertising aimed at kids is illegal, and has been for a long time. But "social media" is bizarrely aimed at kids, or at least kids are extremely susceptible to what influencers are doing. My 10-year old has a wish list

Not having a smartphone would make my kids "social pariahs" for sure. We gave them phones fairly early, but locked down. It was not really a huge problem when they were younger, but social media (no, we shouldnt even call it is, i

"Their hybrid warfare has created massive social rifts" - Really? Do tell. I haven't noticed anything like that. Nor political instability.

If this is the case, then every system along the flightplan should pre-validate it before it gets accepted at the source?

Russia wants the West to react, to stop funding Ukraine and instead fund.. protection for their own homelands I guess. This is a known (theory?), and the game theoretic way to then respond is to, ignore that it happens. Dont stoke any fear

Wow, I am surprised to hear that. Is blocking calls not a thing there? In Sweden you can say that no sellers may call your numbers, companies where you are a customer excluded though. I never get spam calls or sellers calling me.

I mean he has to be serious, right: "Deprecate Lua, Python, JavaScript, Ruby and a dozen other languages, because Pretty C is the ultimate scripting language, but lightning-fast and strongly typed!!"

No, which is a possible solution, but I suspect they simply dont peer locally.

Its a bit sad, we have one of the Swedish, actual physical buildings for AWS in my town. But of course the traffic does not exit here, but is instead aggregated between the different sites spread around cities regionally. So no sub-ms laten

Yeah,I was going to point out that a software block is unlikely to help against bad-usb stuff that infects the USb firmware?

Hmm, yes, I did not try these but I have noticed that my default phone app in my S22 is freakishly fast at detecting QR codes, something I never remember that zxing was. Does anyone know if these are today implemented in neural networks or

So is it impossible to optimize the no-GIL case more really? 20% slower sounds like a lot really.

I also wrote TCL scripts for a IRC client in the 90s, and it was awesome. For that purpose the language was awesome. On the other hand, my other language at that time was x86 assembly so I didnt require much to be awed I guess!

How did the insurance companies respond to this? They should have made the cars extremely expensive to insure, no?
