Really crazy to think that starting a war across the world is the best way to break a union. Never imagined that.

I just did a search, and the second link is escrotrust.com. But, the SSL cert is bad. This all looks a bit shady to me.

My 3 letter handle (xrd) is a cryptocurrency. I get all kinds of @ spam where people shilling a cryptocurrency tag me, assuming I'm associated. I really wish I could move the markets and make a quick buck somehow. I wish Elon would giv

I think Claude Code and Gemini CLI are pretty great as is for terminal usage. Why are they great? Because it is simply text that I use to interact with them. That's really simple and powerful. I don't understand why I can't l

It feels like inflation negates that hedge somewhat.

I admittedly harbor a bunch of resentment towards Roblox for the predatory way they have encircled my childrens' friends, and my children as well, so take my feelings with a grain of salt. I didn't get far in this article. It feel

I just assume the USA will be the place where violent "repurposing" of land will happen because of all the guns here. Housing seems risky for that reason.

What is the hedge for this? Digging a really deep hole somewhere?

I wanted to submit a fix to the site as I couldn't compile llama.cpp without `sudo apt install nvidia-cuda-toolkit-gcc`. Anyone know where to do that?

One phrase stuck with me from this: "they'll start to absorb lessons that it took their colleagues decades to learn." I think the point of failure now will hinge on the willingness of teams to admit what they don't know.

Ok. That makes sense. I wonder if you can then use Netflix and other streaming services? I have a Chromecast device and could probably just switch the HDMI to use that. I can use Netflix on my Linux laptop but I haven't tried Disney an

I can't for the life of me figure out if this is a way to put KDE on my TV by overwriting the existing OS, or if this is something to install on a computer which I then plug my TV into via HDMI. I'm not being lazy here but I have

I'm not sure how "they want war, so they are bombing negligently" is any different. Or morally better.

This is undeniably happening as well. Totally agree. I just have had lots rejections, and some where I did have a good fit, that I don't think "AI auto rejection" is the only story. I have good credentials, several F500 exper

Two reasons. One, they have already filled it internally but legally have to post the job. Two, they are gathering data on market trends and what salaries people will take, which is useful if they are considering firing people and rehiring

I just love the sounds in sentence "...Arabization of Dongola in the Funj period." Dongola in the Funj period sounds like the place to be!

That's exactly why I'm asking! I'm still mystified about whether I can use ollama at all. I'm hopeful that the flexiblity might become interesting at some point.

I've used opencode and the remote free models they default to aren't awful but definitely not on par with Gemini CLI nor Claude. I'm really interested in trying to find a way to chain multiple local high end consumer Nvidia c

I suppose this shows my laziness because I'm sure you have written extensively about it, but what orchestrator (like opencode) do you use with local models?

What do you use as the orchestrator? By this I mean opencode, or the like. Is that the right term?

I recently replaced a power supply to upgrade a GPU. I bought the power supply on Cragslist, so it had a jumble of cables and no manual. In the past I would have read an article that I would have found on one of those sites. This time I con

I not saying be obvious just be obstructive. It would be a delicate line but clearly OpenAI leadership falls on one side of that line now.

You are giving a lot of credit to this criminal. I really doubt they thought about this long in advance of the crime. Are you suggesting they got hired at openai so they could make calculated wagers at Kalshi? This was more likely a crime m

If it has a small transaction history it obscure the owners intentions. An address created right before a wager is obviously for one purpose.

Another recent concern on other posts here on HN is whether a private company should have veto power over the US government. Or, another way to look at it, whether the US government should be able to designate a company as a supply chain ri
