As someone who has never 3d printed anything, I'm surprised by how clean the case looks as opposed to what we usually see. Why is it so smooth?

Pebble was exactly what I wanted 10 years ago and exactly what I don't want now. I'm very happy to miss notifications when my phone is in my pocket or bag and I don't care about fitness metrics anymore. However I'd love

Is it really their recipe for greatness? We have very strong unions and worker protections in France, and our trains are unreliable as fuck. I'd be more inclined to think that their highly developed feelings of pride and shame are bigg

If there are contributors to Blender from the industry, who are they? It's easy to understand how big tech can be contributing to Linux, data processing pipelines, web frameworks, compilers etc. but it's harder to see who has both

At least you can argue that computers got better and more efficient, but disposable vapes? I don't understand how they're still legal.

There's also Grain de Sail. Not only French, all these are from the region of Britanny, sailing is very cultural.

Without policies, gains in efficiency are always compensated by increased demand. Global energy consumption by source is a good example, we've never consumed as much coal as now even though we have alternatives. https://ourw

> This will be true if (as I believe) AI will plateau as we run out of training data. Why would they run out of training data? They needed external data to bootstrap, now it's going directly to them through chatgpt or codex.

I've been annoyed by this as well for a while. I have a non-electric cargo bike but I don't care if others have pedals or not. I'm more scared of a bakfeit mum zooming through at 25km/h than a lightweight Chinese-style m

I read the opposite, that you don't have to be locked-in Ollama's registry if you don't want to. Could you share a bit more of what you do with llama.cpp? I'd rather use llama-serve but it seems to require a good amount

I'm not from the US and I'm not arguing that the current US gov wasn't elected fairly. It's not a law of physics that leaders of democracies do what the people want, they are selected by a system that was designed to est

Citation very much needed ;) Even our current voting systems are far from being the best we can come up with in term of fairness. The population most certainly wants to remain in an environment humans can comfortably live in, somehow that&#

How do you end up with 10-15 years? China is almost perfectly vertically integrated from raw materials to highly advanced finished products. Their industrialization started in the 70s. Getting to that level would require a lot of planning a

That's how I feel like working with git locally using a combination of basic commands and gitup ( https://gitup.co/ ), that may be why I couldn't really get the selling point of jj when I tried it a couple weeks ago

PMs, POs and CEOs should have been the first jobs to automate in our industry. Nothing of what the vast majority of them do is based on evidence and verifiable facts, it's already all vibes anyway.

That's very healthy, but in this case it feels more like building things for people you disagree with, and who ultimately don't want you to disagree with them.

Nice! I hope keyboard computers will find their niche market. I've been looking for one that I could carry around, mostly in-between home and my coworking where I already have displays. My MacBook works just fine but I've grown to

For the 8 bits case in the first benchmark, why isn't `Vec<u8>` just as fast as the rest? Is it due to the compiler emitting poorer instructions in that case or doing extra checks the other implementations don't?

I share your opinions on the EU, sadly. Von Der Leyen and many others did a great job making skeptics of people like us. However, I disagree that stopping to buy Russian fossil fuels is a great short term goal. It's not like they would
