If the material that you train the AI on is copyright protected you are by definition violating it. Otherwise AI becomes a glorious copyright-laundering machine, use something that you want to copy to train an AI, then…
Funny that Linux is perceived as unstable, I have to fix a Windows laptop where Windows starts up fine 1 time out of 10, while normally it freezes (not even blue screens) on the boot loading spinner, I've done…
Exactly. I would also argue that WE DON'T NEED more software, WE DON'T NEED more features, what US, humanity, needs is MORE RELIABLE software, with less bugs, that is stable. Big tech want to tell us that AI is great…
I would not like a JIT to be embedded in python for one reason. The sole reason why Python didn't have all the security related bugs of other languages (just think about all the exploits in JS engines, as well as the…
Yes of course your employer is fine with you going walking barefoot on a beach instead of being in the office working, and it's happy to pay you the same money. Come on... Also, you are telling me that you can get only…
Except that with React you usually use something like tailwind or similar that abstracts writing CSS, that do me doesn't make sense. Of course you can still write plain CSS.
React ruined the web, and the mobile development too. Now to load a simple website that in the past was a few kB of HTML, CSS and JS you need to download Mb of JS code. Now the browser needs to use Mb of RAM just to…
Let's stop saying that open weight models are open source. They are just a software that you can run on your own hardware (if you have a ton of money to spend to get it anyway) but they are not open, they are as open as…
The amount of AI slopped code is infesting even the hobby communities. If you search something online you only end up in AI slopped blog posts that doesn't explain the actual thing. If you want to contribute to an open…
It still doesn't make sense. That pages are probably built from an internal repository/database where that information is in a human readable format (e.g. Markdown or some sort of CMS) that is then processed by a CI to…
To me computers doesn't really have an effect on the data (for how much a computer costs, and how little time in the past it was used, considering the internet was dial-up and was the real cost of using it that made…
Reason why I consider BTC to not have sense, it makes sense only compared to cash, and when you want cash? Illegal activity or tax evasion. A person that doesn't have anything to hide is happy to leave it's money in a…
This is impossible to happen. Security flaws are discovered almost every day (now that they are automating it with AI there are a ton of reports), pretending the manufacturer releases an update in 1 day is nonsense.…
I think that the EU shall render this practice (and the equivalent from Apple) illegal, stating that every citizen has a right to modify their own device without consequences, and that consequences shall include also…
A basic Samsung or Xiaomi tablet is 200€ on Amazon and it's perfectly capable for browsing the internet and basic stuff. My dad has a Samsung tablet that costed 200€ a few years ago and still is fine, he uses it…
$299 is not cheap, is more than what the phone that the average person has costs (that is not an iPhone). And with a smartphone you surely can do much more things than that object. With $299 you can also buy a tablet,…

For now SIP can be disabled (on mac, not of course on iOS that is completely closed) but I wonder for how much. It's clear that the desire of Apple is to make macOS a closed system like iOS, installing third party…
The introduction of LLM in mathematics is no different than the introduction of automatic calculators. Probably the calculators (computers) where even more groundbreaking if you think so (something that was impossible…
Beside the fact that was standard or not it made sense to use .lan domain for local devices, and a lot of router sold were configured with that domain for resolving local network hosts. To me is a very bad idea to…
VHS to me was the best in usability, put the tape into the VCR and it turned the VCR on and start playing, also (this is true for European TVs connected with the SCART connector) it would switch the TV to the correct…
I still miss the point. We have connections nowadays that are mostly good (with even the average domestic connection being gigabit!) and JPEG was fine in the days we had much slower connections. On the other side we…
This F1 is shit, I've lost interest in it. When the race winner is not determined by the pilot skills, or the team, or the car itself, but by some software, battery power, excessive ruling, lawyers, etc. it's to me not…
