This kind of BOM variant stuff happens all the time so you can buy a bunch of bare boards and sit on them. You don't need to do another expensive board run if firmware development catches up or if you decide you want to depopulate som

And require public scrutiny and reputation risking, I agree. Flags are louder than comments yet require no risk. It's a systemic bias against discussion.

That would assume good faith. It wasn't flagged in good faith so all you'd get access to is how bad faith actors construct narratives.

Whether or not it's thinking is independent from the fact that it is misaligned with the user. If I was working with a pet rock or a scientist I would want to make sure they both are trying to accomplish the same thing as me. If I ca

If you want a bad time just ask a chatbot what it knows about your username.

You're leaving out an important aspect that Blade Runner displays. In the opening crawl replicants are called androids and this leads the audience to believe that they are mechanical. Over the course of the movie you are shown that m

Oddly specific niche jumpscare. Which games? Cookie clicker and universal paperclips are the household names, but reactor idle based off of ic2 has been my favorite gameplay-wise. The 2D adjacency bonus mechanics scratch the same itch ta

I recommend It Came From Something Awful. It's short and the thesis is that corporate co-option of counter culture pushed the internet over the precipice.

Yes, that's good. It also prices out a lot of other better uses for their labor. Projects I work on have seen prices soar. I don't consider building the things everyone hates because they promise concentration of wealth and an

CRTs are a stronger example. The R&D Sony has lost to the sands of time means we would need decades of sustained effort to reach the same quality of shadow mask that we used to have. It wouldn't be picking up where we left off,

A good instinct. There are a lot of things a $500 AMD GPU can do in linux that a $5000 DGX cannot.

I am disputing that cosmic ray showers are the obvious dominant source of terrestrial DRAM bit flips.

That's a much weaker statement than "the primary source of uncorrelated bit flips is cosmic radiation".

The ECC on the GTX 1080 let me figure out the optimal overclock with the only feedback mechanism being benchmarked throughout.

>The primary source of uncorrelated bit-flips is, effectively, cosmic radiation. This gets said a lot but with little evidence. The mario speedrun bit flip has been replicated with marginal connector insertion. https://youtu.

If you are only using chatbots for code gen then for sure this is a reasonable approach. If you're trying to learn something then your best bet is to not have the lowest jpg quality version of human knowledge be your teacher.

We could probably get the same results by offloading 20% of obviously smaller / simpler / well defined tasks to smaller models and keep the 80% for ones that benefit from the big iron. Not the 80/20 they were referring to, b

Docker compose + systemd, automated backups (bonus points for coordinating with restic/borg + rsync cronjob), and ram disks. Ram disks in particular are a game changer for game feel. For the backups you'll need to leverage a fea

USAA doesn't operate its own mortgages anymore. They sell them day one which usually results in another sale or company acquisition within a year. The cure? Take your business elsewhere. FCUs don't have this same reputation an

Valve is a similar size to id tech. They have two tricks: be in a business other than games and be privately owned. The former gives them the ability to weather storms and the latter keeps the dagger away. This would not have happened if

A software company with less than 500 employees and more than 100 MUSD in annual revenue and you're asking me to please think of the vulture capitalists that gutted it?
