I don't understand, no one ever needed an LLM to automate air traffic controllers. 1980s tech could do that just fine. The reason they continue to exist is essentially cultural. Fell into a local maximum trap and now the entire industr

Theres zero days in obscure parts of the kernel nobody uses every other day. (It also of course found 100 other things that were not zero days or vulnerabilities, yet professed they were, which is why this trash even on Gemini 9000 Pro keep

Whats wrong with using Ghidra to debug directly?

Displays are still bandwidth killers today, we kept scaling them up with everything else. Today you might have a 4k 30bpp 144hz display and just keeping that fed takes 33Gbit/s purely for scanout, not even composing it.

Mhm, the current generation of kids of Turkish immigrants in Germany all seem to believe they are actually displaced Turks. I suppose thats what you encourage with double passport and voting for authoritarians at "home". (of cours

I thought there was something wrong with this blog post that kept writing "googlelogoligature" but no some absolute cretin really added that as a ligature to the font.

Because the author is lost in peculiarities of the systems he happens to work with that he is redefining the terms (see all the discussion around "push" and "pull"). That's gonna run into this problem. His problem i

You probably realized its absurd to have 50000 square nodes in your pathfinding graph and instead divided the area into 50 convex polygons (if that). Convex polygons being the basic shape because you can go directly from every point within

OpenSSL was always the library developed by clowns, the only upside is it was used by everyone (so a sort of "can't be fired for buying IBM" situation). Big problem for libraries like WolfSSL, which is equally made by people

I use it all the time, multiple times daily. But the discussion is not being very honest, particularly for all the things that are being bolted on (agent mode, MCP). Like just upstream people dunk on others for pointing out that maybe givin

Have you tried it? In my experience they just go off on a hallucination loop, or blow up the code base with terrible re-implementations. Similarly Claude 3.5 was stuck on TensorRT 8, and not even pointing it at the documentation for the upd

Which is why they all carry beacons, so when they fail they can involve others in their folly. Dunno, you wanna leave civilization, that's like a billion dollar risk premium right there.

The reason they investigate every airplane crash for a root cause is not necessarily because the number of deaths tilts the statistics, it's because they are highly complicated mechanical and electrical machines where there is always t

I like how they have spent time to remove the researcher names from the abstract and even the pre-registation. Nothing screams ethics like "can't put your name on it".
