But he already got it, no? Claude Fable can only be made available to US citizens, which implies that every user who wants to use Claude Fable must provide proof of citizenship in some way, basically KYC.

I think that AUR is a not a very good idea. It's essentially uncensored platform. I think they can moderate it, but obviously only for high-visibility cases. Anyone can create package with any name, potentially impersonating any other

Of course it is possible to have E2E encryption on emails. You can have E2E encryption on everything. Just use `age` and encrypt your message with sender public key. Easy.

Their detection is too aggressive. Just today I'm trying to build a kernel for some SBC and I hit that downgrade. I just asked some things about `make menuconfig` items. I suppose it just flags everything related to linux kernel as cyb

You can build application outside of container, but run it in container. I think that it is simpler workflow, than everything in container (when you actually need to develop it with IDE). I didn't try devcontainers stuff, TBH. But that

I'm on $200 plan which is supposedly 20x usage of $20 plan. With few Fable prompts (I'm working on u-boot port) I got 10% of my 5h usage, so that's already 2x of $20 plan usage and that would be 40% of $100 plan. So Fable is

I don't live in USA. I'm getting paid around $2500/month and that's good salary for developers here, plenty of folks are getting below that number. So this pricing is just completely outside of our economics and nobody I

Sometimes I want to design a simpler C-like language and build toolchain for it from the scratch, with no historical baggage. Obviously optimization story will be very poor, gcc carries hundreds of super-qualified man-years of optimization

As I understand it, the whole purpose of vfork is to avoid that problem. So vfork does not copy memory in any way and you're not allowed to do anything but exec after vfork. But at this point question arises: why not call it `vfork_and

Let's say you have 1GB RAM. You're running program that occupies 600 MB. Now this program wants to launch second small program that occupies 1 MB. You're doing fork + exec. If you're overcommiting, fork will not reserve

That's how science always worked. The stupid people throw money at smart people and sometimes they pay back with good things. Any attempts to optimize that is futile, so the best we can do is to continue throwing money.

It is not obsolete. In fact, I've yet to encounter IPv6 anywhere, so my IPv6 knowledge so far stays mostly theoretical. And I work with servers. Probably depends a lot on a particular location.

That's true. SQL knowledge is one of the few skills that didn't age. 1. C language. 2. *nix tools (shell and friends). 3. SQL. 4. Basic IPv4 networking. These things I learned around 20 years ago, they didn't change much and

Finally I can make it think hard. This is feature I loved in ChatGPT (Pro Mode) and I missed in Claude for so long. Can cancel ChatGPT now, I guess. Still feels like even with Max mode it doesn't think reasonably long, at least ChatGPT

I think it's a bit different. USSR just wasn't rich enough to afford experimentation and innovation. Resources (including human brain power) were quite limited. So they had to copy proven solutions. Simple as that. It's easy

Few fixes: 1. "ИМЕНА" is plural, so instead of "NAME:" it's a bit more appropriate to use "NAMES:". Probably should be "VARIABLES" or "VARS" in modern context. 2. You've got few ty

TBH I never understood people trying to run LLM locally. Just rent a powerful machine in the cloud for few hours. It's cheap enough, because you don't need to own a hardware. It doesn't introduce a dependency because there ar
