Are EVs that widespread in the US already that you're at the stage where you need to move from incentivising EV purchases to normalising their taxation?

Wait, if I had a company, why would I want to pay my workers more so they'd buy more? That just sounds like I'm keeping my money with extra steps?

Yes, and I'm asking what the context for that sarcasm is.

It will result in fewer second homes existing, therefore more first homes.

What's the context here? Isn't he doing enough?

I'm with you, comments like the GP are just demands on the time of people who make things. For years, everyone here was adamant that founders made the company, even if they hired developers to write the actual code. You made a cool thi

Ahh OK, makes perfect sense, and interesting that that IR compiles to C++. Thanks for the info!

Eh, I still read all of it, but it grates that everything everywhere all the time now is written by one person.

All of them represent claims which the author believes as stated, otherwise the author wouldn't put their name on them.

Security isn't a binary "secure/insecure". You can be more or less secure than something.

They aren't my peers, and they don't have a stake in it. I'm usually just asking on IRC.

I tried to use rtk once and the model got stuck just running and rerunning and rerunning in a loop, until I killed it. I have no idea what happened.

uv failed for me once, but then worked the second time. I think it has to do with uv just taking a while to install the first time. Maybe if you pre-run the installation it'll work better.

Your way is good because it answers my question first. I've been wanting to do a weird thing X and had to first spend half an hour convincing people that yes, I really do know what I'm doing, so they'd give me the one-liner a

Yeah but as far as potential goes, "AI will take your job" isn't that much worse than "you'll be working 12 hours in an Amazon warehouse with a 2 minute pee break for minimum wage". I feel like American society

That makes sense, thanks. Is this IR at a level where the optimisations can't just be added to LLVM then?
708.
by stavros 6mo ago
Isn't the main benefit of LLVM that you get tons of backends for free? What does having your own IR give you that's worth this tradeoff?

Right, but he clearly didn't mean HTML, otherwise he wouldn't be trying native elements in the first place.

What kind of AI were you expecting that wouldn't be "a chatbot"?

I wanted to avoid exactly this for me, so I made https://www.writelucid.cc/ . It's free (bring your own API key), hopefully someone will find it useful.

Or use software that only lets the AI critique/give you feedback, but not write for you.

The author wasn't trying to render HTML. Everyone is focusing on the word "Markdown", I wish the author had just said "rich text" instead so we could actually have a fruitful conversation.

Sure, but then that's just scale, not the laws of nature.

Honest question, are people against AI, or against AI being solely in the hands of a few massive companies, thus concentrating wealth even more? Are people against local models as well? What if they could run Claude at home (maybe with the

Yeah, even back then, ~nobody was using GPT-4 because it was released as some weird Sam Altman flex. Super expensive, not that capable.

Wait, this person knew that the wire could bring you light, but not that it could bring you heat? Hadn't they noticed that light bulbs heat up?

That's Claude for you :(

I have to say, I visited Zurich once, and everything was clean, organized, civilized, and pretty. Friends told me taxes are high but you get great education, great healthcare, decent disposable income, and good transportation. If you get la

It's irrelevant what Markdown was meant to be transpiled to. When people say "Markdown support" these days, they mean "rich text support", since Markdown is actually just ASCII. It is ridiculous to need a Web render
