That said, my kids got a Switch 2 for Christmas and we just got done with a super fun session of Mario Party Jamboree and boy are Mario, Bowser, and the gang looking GREAT! Super fun, everyone was laughing and having a great time. They’ve a

Obviously the solution here is to have the LLMs post thank you notes, and offer a complex network of job offers for all of these people contributing to open source. Of course the jobs don’t actually exist, but these acts of kindness will ke

If San Francisco is what you get when you embrace the left, and opposition to that is fascism, I think a lot of us have just decided we must be fascists.

I remember Wayland scared me off of Linux when I tried to switch to Ubuntu a few years ago. I couldn’t watch a movie without jiggling my mouse every few minutes. At the time I feel like it was like “yeah that feature doesn’t exist yet” or s

This is an npm package that allows you to interact with WhatsApp using their API. The OS wouldn’t prevent this as it’s not interacting with your WhatsApp on your machine, but rather logging you in via a skillfully made 3rd party interface,

This news is interesting but this was definitely written by ChatGPT. I’m not just sure — I’m absolutely certain. It has all the telltale signs, so much “it’s not just this — it’s that”. I don’t mind something augmented or proofread by ChatG

A consultant started recommending the Azure devops MCP and my context window would start around 25% full. It’s really easy to accidentally explode your token usage and destroy your context windows. Before I’d use az cli calls as needed and

Isn’t that mostly economics? I definitely prefer using Claude to GPT-OSS120B for a code assistant. I don’t know about you, but I don’t have $500,000 laying around to buy myself a DGX B200 with a TB of HBM and 2TB of system ram, nor the 14.3

They definitely do it some, like Starfield came out with FSR out of the box but they didn’t add DLSS for several months. I got Starfield for free when I bought my 7800X3D which was a nice bonus. Definitely to a lesser degree than Nvidia tho

So seems like this is one of those “Giant slow moving megacorp bankrolls a small nimble hyper focused organization to innovate” type things? Calling it MAI and the soft pastel color is certainly a choice.

I was agreeing with you on all accounts but seriously doubt they’ll be open source. I think the average person will barely clock this as mattering, and will pay up. The market has shown time and again that consumers prefer highly integrated

Cursor Plan mode works like this. It restricts the LLMs access to your environment and will allow you to iteratively ask and clarify and it’ll piece together a plan that it allows you to review before it takes any action. ChatGPT deep resea

You’d just run every picture through CLIP, essentially you run an image generator backwards. Instead of text to image like most end users use when using something like stable diffusion (been awhile since I’ve done this), it can do the exact

They definitely are working on it. They announced the steam machine, steam controller, and the valve frame (standalone vr headset with seamless screen sharing from a PC), and in their reveal video the first thing they rather coyly say is “w

By “directs to remote” does it mean the TV remote? I feel like I’m missing something here, it’s just saying “use the smart tv’s built in app”? Directing someone to the remote seems like an overcomplicated way of indicating this? I’m so glad

Seconding this, I work as a SWE for a large construction company, while the IT department is small considering the large scope of the company as a whole, but we’ve been extremely busy. Construction is absolutely booming.

My friend’s son was four and had to have it explicitly explained to him that men can be scientists, too! Based on all the books he’d been read and other media, he assumed only women were scientists.
