No, we can't. It's an ultra-low-power embedded ARM Cortex-M33 (successor to Cortex-M4) processor, the right language to use when programming it is C++. You want a minimum of abstractions and a close-to-the-metal…
I love the Garmin pogo chargers. I've got a few of their $3 puck cables scattered about my home, car, and office, a USB-C to Garmin adapter in my keychain and backpacking kit, and someone recently made a neat little…
There are only about 400 units in existence, and they just started shipping June 30: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/unawatch/meet-una-the-m... so it's been out for less than a month. That's why you've seen zero…
You can't view a random imgur screenshot in the UK? What image hosts work for you? Imgbb? Postimages?
I think that any workflow that requires the user to stare at the tokens being generated live is using it wrong. Delegate, don't stare! https://mikeveerman.github.io/tokenspeed/?rate=10&mode=text You think of an idea…
I'm not left-handed, but I often scroll my phone with my left thumb. My right hand is on my computer mouse, or holding a pen, or employed to make precise touches on the phone screen with my right index finger, or…
Your terminal doesn't typically use Consolas. You can do: $ wget https://archive.org/download/PowerPointViewer_201801/PowerPointViewer.exe $ cabextract PowerPointViewer.exe $ cabextract ppviewer.cab $ open CONSOLA*.TTF…
I've also been running Qwen 3.6 35B A3b on my Windows laptop (64 GB RAM, a 4GB GPU) and it's at least tolerable. It's not fast - a few tokens per second, slower than reading speed - but I can give it a task and come…
Yes, that's "bare metal" as opposed to programming in MicroPython, Javascript with Espruino, Lua/NodeMCU, Rust, or adding your C application on top of an off-the-shelf RTOS. C support is basically universal these days,…
I don't think they're necessarily overestimating what they've dedicated to logistics, they're overestimating what they've dedicated to anti-scalping. If they cared to detect it, they could invest even just a token…
Those genetic requirements come into play at elite levels, but you need to start young, when those differences are less obvious. You need to look at what sports an eight-year-old is playing in the backyard, what sports…
I don't even know what "make software vulnerable to a specific agency" would look like. Would the training data include a bunch of cryptography primitive training samples that preferred Dual_EC_DRBG with a particular…
Are you 20? I got 35 unc which is a few points less than my IRL age. I'm curious at what (if any) age the mean score skews to greater than age in years. I expect there are multiple brackets, the very young won't check…
Reminds me of the opening to "Ministry for the Future" by Kim Stanley Robinson. In that book, a wet bulb event (high humidity and high temp) in India pushes infrastructure past the breaking point, the grid goes down, AC…
Content creating is not maintenance. And hosting of a static site is dirt cheap, caching works flawlessly. It could've been a two-million-dollar website if he'd tried to roll his own CMS and Javascript framework, for…

Not "just", it's (presumably) 8 dedicated pins that form an RMII interface. This is not the same 8 pins as you'll find in your 4-pair Ethernet cable, it's a separate protocol which can be connected to an Ethernet PHY…
Yeah, but even when it was a new quote, it was inaccurate: People have always wanted to follow their own desires, always wanted to be told what they want to hear, and always disliked listening to harsh truths. Even in…
Television courtrooms are half of it, the other is social media. Tiktok and Youtube and Facebook will show you videos all day long with notable events that were pulled from security cameras, or uploaded by bystanders…
I've got a couple older cars (2010, 2003), but the only new one I'm excited about - the only actually new car I've ever considered buying - is the Slate truck: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_G4OfXTlvs It has an LCD…
I don't think that current LLMs really need an abstain option, they'll give an answer regardless of whether they're confident or not. I hope that future LLMs will, and will know when to use it. I understand why you…
It's neurotoxic, a respiratory irritant, and an eye irritant. No, if it's injected in your bloodstream it won't immediately kill you, but if you inhale a few milligrams of vapor you'll wish you could cough up a lung.…
