Because it’s cheaper to buy a commodity chip and program it rather than get an application specific chip made.

At least that only hurts its users. IDC about people doing shit to their own bodies

The sticks were digitally driven for quite a while as well. Managed to short circuit a 2004 VW Passat’s electronics, the sticks started to point in random directions all over the place while the car was in motion. And I don’t mean shaking, just going to a random value and settling on it every 1.5 seconds.

Was very spooky.

He was in government for 20 (16+4 before) and stole for longer than that.

I actually did an experiment on doing just that. For context, I’m an experienced software engineer, whose company buys him a tom of Claude usage so I had time to test out what it can actually do and I feel like I’m capable of judging where it’s good and where it falls short at.

How Claude Code works is that there are actually multiple models involved, one for doign the coding, one “reasoning” model to keep the chain of thought and the context going, and a bunch of small specialized ones for odd jobs around the thing.

The thing that doesn’t work yet is that the big reasoning model has to still be big, otherwise it will hallucinate frequently enough to break the workflow. If you could get one of the big models to run locally, you’d be there. However, with recent advances in quantization and MoE models, it’s actually getting nearer fast enough that I would expect it to be generally available in a year or two.

Today the best I could do was a tool that could take 150 gigs of RAM, 24 gigs of VRAM and AMD’s top of the line card to take 30 minutes what takes Claude Code 1-2. But surprisingly, the output of the model was not bad at all.

Putin gives zero fucks about Iranian children, he was perfectly fine killing Russian civilians to get into power.

Shaheds on the other hand…

Not Cyrillic, it says “és a szapora szobanövény"

Standard TLS, I think, but what else would you need?

Yeah, but Europe, despite having the same idiotic centrists in power in a lot of places, has much stronger democratic institutions and systems to push back.

As much as I see far right pushes, they can’t fuck over the whole continent at the same time like they did in the US. Brexit had a backlash, AfD winning would show how shit they are to other countries. Also, there are more varied stuff going on, there is a lot of shit to hope about as well.

Hungary of all places might get a wealth tax going on this year for example. It’s not all bad. We just killed not just Chat Control 2.0, but also the already implemented first iteration was rolled back.

Stupid question, I don’t feel like Europe is collapsing in any way. Can you tell me why would you say that?

In Nginx you can do rewrites so services think they are at the root.

Oh, there are those as well, I’m not dunking on juniors.

It’s just that my problems always tend to be caused by mismanagement of people.

Like just today I had to clean up after a “let’s do a quick and dirty experiment, oh it works so now it’s production, make 200 more features in a month built on top of the quick and dirty let’s just try it code, what do you mean we lost millions because of a regression nobody even noticed” situation.

Mara Jade, from the non-Disney Star Wars universe.

She’s Luke’s wife.

IDK, I’ve been here a few years, the company has existed for another few.

If it starts getting uncomfy, I’ll start looking for a better one. It worked out so far.

In Hungarian, it’s still “Tíz kicsi néger”, though “néger” does not carry the same connotation in the language, if anything, it’s archaic.

You can be a mainstream politician and say it on live TV, and people will at most laugh at the old person.

Our version of the n-word is spelled the same.

Exclusivity is still a shitty thing. How does it make the service better for consumers?

Good workplaces are like the after-school extracurricular classes, you go because you’re interested, it’s fun to problem-solve with people.

I have to be regularly told to go home at the end of the day.

Morrowind is definitely a looker, that art style is something Beth has never been able to approach again.

But hard agree on the VFX.

Less and less these days.

In fact, some old Windows games ran better for me on Linux than new Windows.
