Modern Greek is, frankly, irrelevant. Ancient Greek is needed to get a full Western education, for reading some of our foundational literature properly.

Not quite yet. The interesting thing here is ~256TB in a single drive, but it's in E3.L form factor. I have about 160TB on hard drives that I'm waiting to offload onto a single SSD. But that needs to come with a connector that has

> But can I run my apps? > Well, probably, yes. Even with "probably" as a qualifier, this is disingenuous. Not even Android has caught up to the highest tier of apps available on iOS.

RSS readers are immensely helpful to also interact with image (such as web comics) and video (Youtube channels) feeds. Alas, a terminal interface is a decisively bad choice for that.

I think it was about the back of a cabinet, and that attitude certainly exists in woodworking. It's reasonable for learning to appreciate that as an adolescent to have a big impact on a person. And even if that book were fully dictated

I used a Mac mini M1 with 8GB of RAM for a while. It was fine; much better than Intel Macs or any other setup with low RAM.

I'd say that may be as harmful as it is helpful. Amateur users may have heard of Github and would therefore trust that domain, but you can upload malware to Github just as easily as anything else.

They list Acer, Asus, Dell, HP and Lenovo on this site. Any one would be a slightly bad sign for quality, all five are awful. Yet another product range with lots of options, but not a single good one.

Size, but not form. Best form goes to the Neo, current Air, or 2015 MBP. They should be offering a 12” Air now.

Typical for something made in St. Gallen. A sensible web developer from Zurich interested in the topic would have created this website in just a single HTML and an optional CSS file.

No, the memory is different enough.

It sounds like you’re talking about network usage, but this is about storage. Also, average doesn’t mean 50% lower and 50% higher.

Read the article, it's not about that, but a mere 4GB of storage.

This site, if not overly wasteful, fits onto a single 1U server. A single car is more damaging than such a server.

Use them for what? This is a case where what you do with your stuff matters more than its size.

Yes. Some people are very trigger happy in attributing human slop to LLMs.

It’s American Business as usual. Personally I’m miffed how little data Apple needs to provide about product categories, and especially about how much they’ve burnt on the car program. If they shared any data about that at all some the leade

Yes. The author is really sloppy if that wasn’t clear from the article.

Changing your LLM inference provider is the easiest switch in technology I can think of. It's quicker than taking off the case of your phone and putting on a new one. Enough hardware and good models exist now that if you do get blocked

This is a silly thing to say. Such a thing can’t be enforced and it can be flipped on a dime. You should play around with local LLMs and system prompts to experience it.

I still have a 12” Macbook, and it feels much more lighter than it actually is. I like my MBA, but it could be shrunk. Without the wedge it’s much more easier, too.

You could give pre iOS 7 devices to grandmothers and monkeys and they could use it. That was nice. Nowadays, I don’t know all the gestures and things you can do on an iPad despite watching every Apple Keynote.

Rule of thumb is: half the statements out of capitalist states are false, all statements out of communist(-ish) ones are false. No racism, I’m perfectly willing to believe half of what comes out of Taiwan.

Open source LLMs aren’t about cost foremost, but stability.

Storage performance is practically always a shared resource, and that's what y'all are talking about here...

The brunt cost is taken by the public, whose intellectual property has been expropriated. After all, the worth of our combined data would be at least the sum of the worth of the entire AI industry.

1) In the AI world, that's a very long time ago 2) That still equates to "Meta is not in the AI game any more" in meta-corporate speak
