Thank you for sharing! This is inspiring. Cooking is this sort of an activity that is simple enough to not be overwhelming but also complex enough to be very interesting. Both in practice and in modelling :-)
And in case you are elsewhere... In Poland it's on the 26th, so hey buy some appropriate flowers or other gift while you have the time!
Great through-history write-up! Thank you. > That is one of the great ironies of modern Open Source. The distributed version control system won, and then the world standardized on one enormous centralized service for…

As much as the notion of "Purchasing Power" is <macro>economic, thus perhaps having a greater chance of being related to reality, I've been wondering if - and how - could these long-term measures account for greater…
The most interesting is the realization that if the LLM's input is only the output of a professional (human), then by definition the LLM cannot mimic the process the (human) professional applied to get from whatever…
Pro-tip I only realized later when making much bigger ones: it's worth to pay attention to the "grain", that is the orientation of the corrugations. Find it hard to describe, but they should go "perpendicular to the…
I do a lot of free-standing "holders" from industrial (5 ply) cardboard and hot glue. Surprisingly sturdy! Made a video about this too: https://youtu.be/s-aNW3h15K0 - all of these are still in use and I made more & more…
Thanks for the nightmare fuel! ... These things should have a warning label.
Yes. In fact I even made a video about them: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdbfPa1L6JQ (shameless self-plug, yes).
An approach very close to one I've been thinking about lately. My three cents: compact the journal when its size exceeds the actual data size. With thresholds or other knobs; with the point being the initial load time…

As a sysadmin I'm very familiar with `makepkg`, its config file and the fact that sooner or later one will need both `clang` and `gcc`, because they're equivalent only in theory ;-) But as I maintain only a library of…

Because doing all the driving, decoding and serial comms pretty much required a computer anyway, so the most sensible approach was to use what they already had in supply. Also, find it very difficult to find this…
As someone who grew up with Amiga... I find it amazing these boards still keep coming (X1000, X5000... anyone?) - they have always been insanely expensive for specs that are decade(s) old, all in the name of... really…
Lers of Spoil: this is about a NES game ;-) Pretty cool still, especially if one's into reverse engineering.
The point is that we should acknowledged those "cheats" came with their reasons and that they did improve performance etc. But, they also did come with a cost (Meltdown, Spectre anyone?) and fundamentally introduced…
Instruction pipelining and this is exactly why I wish we still have the time to go back to "it is exactly as it is", think the 6502 or any architecture that does not pretend/map/table/proxy/ringaway anything. That, but…
False alarm.
Very clever, and playable! Thanks.
Thanks for the replies! Will note the UE5 specificity.
