> jobs displaced by industrialization This argument is cute and all, but ... does a data-point of 1 from 200 years ago really give us much confidence? We replaced physical labor with a massive service sector. Now we're…
Yes, that's very nice. But that's very different models from LLMs and slop image generators. AI as a term has been butchered beyond recognition; when mentioning the current harm of AI investor hype and job automation,…
An inference only platform selling good open weight model inference without the research overhead could capture a-lot of market for lower size model uses (haiky, gemeni flash). Diffusion-transformers and clever cashing…
LEB128 can only trick you by at most one byte, (depending on the followup data). Bijou64 can consistently trick you by 8 bytes. In a contrived example of a pbuf {length:int, payload:byte[1]} LEB128 can trick you into…
Clever, but one thought crossed my mind; An adveserial package can claim to have a 255 tagged integer but not actually have any followup, tricking the payload parser into an incorrect offset and reading straight off…
So we should give up regulating them? All stored are internet stores.
But western brands can be sued or made liable with fines when a house burns down, which force them a minimum level of caution or risk-assessment when designing and selling their product. A random Chinese drop-shipper…
Neither does; Mercury lamps, Asbestos insulation, Freon refrigerant. It poses issues when disposed off, and is banned for a reason.
Passing the CE certification is annoying, but hardly a significant cost compared to design of the product. Notably, the law forces companies to put their ass on the line if things to wrong, by registering their name to…
Could we interest you in some amazons choice fuses? never more be concerned about replacing a fuse! as these ones, simply wont need replacing! (they survive 5-10x their rated current) https://youtu.be/B90_SNNbcoU
And architectures. Probably a bunch of build servers or a swarm of docker, qemu, and VMs, with a good test coverage to detect behaviour differences. In practice, the compiler is an often an omitted dependency of any c…
Patents is not the issue here. Not even close. The up-front investment of a memory fab is measured in billions, and takes years to construct and get running. The margin on the chips themselves is terrible, so without…
Not using JavaScript would also make the crawler fail on squarespace and wix website builders. The age where the web was usable at all without JavaScript is long gone. No scraper would get much scraping done without…
google is already on it when asking about "The Great Pigeon Census of 1887" using 1886 or 1888 makes Google correctly identify that no such sensus exist. asking about 1887 specifically makes Google refer to some…
I had the opposite issue. Writing was agony and every section would be written, reviewed and rewritten to get my point across; only to be tortured by a miminum word count that was 20% away after saying all i cound think…
In a very simplified view; Those "tolkens" humans "count" are translated to a ~2048 (depends on model) floating point vector. bird => {mamal, english, noun, Vertebrate, aviant} has one r but what if you make it 20% more…

plenty BD clips of old atlas include oil lines bursting and showing the room with oil. it's indeed a mess.

It's either neutral useless information, or a sign of low quality. It's never positive. Its a sign that the developer didn't pay attention to what they committed. Like a spelling error, or forgetting to run the linter.…
I really wish i could at the very least force them to use a modern GCC fork. Please no more c99!
These kind of effort have potential in my eyes. I've seen some others, and been tempted to write some tools of my own of this type. I personally struggle with often being stuck on c99, not even c11.
I'd rather my employers just does the classic of shredding random 80% and looking at the remainder properly.
It further makes expecting or spending the effort hand writing a proper introduction useless. Which then undermine the entire purpose of it.
