Most of the examples of "coup de grâce" are wrong. That was a bad choice of example phrase to put on the website. The last word should be pronounced like "grass". Everyone seems to be saying "coup de gras" (rhyming with…
It's a standard for accessing confidence and reliability of a source. See admiralty code
Ian M Banks covers this in great detail in his science fiction books. Highly recommended.
Haven't heard a single story like this from Ireland in the last 20 years, but I'm happy to be corrected. If anything the police here are too lenient on children running amok. It's common to see 9 year olds flying around…
To any ollama.com dudes and dudettes reading this: why won't you offer any embedding models on your subscription when they are readily supported by the software and fairly efficient to run?
I think if you take a global outlook, you'll find I am not the outlier. Wasting food is a recent Western phenomenon.
I have two kids and this is pure bollox. They'll eat what they are given if they are hungry enough. Or eat the leftovers yourself. Cook the fruit and make compote. We never throw out edible food, virtually zero waste.…
Maybe they should have used a name that wasn't already taken... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hayes_AT_command_set
What an obnoxious comparison. Any engineer good enough to get into Meta has had their pick of tech jobs for the past decade. They could easily live comfortably, but less well paid, working for a myriad of less…
Stunning hypocrisy.
Please keep Assistant, it's an easy to use alternative to OpenAI, and is not intrusive. I will say that I find the GUI infuriating though... It's never clear where the cursor is when you start a new chat. Don't…
Another Irishman here. Stop trying to harken back to some notional "good old days" that didn't exist. People are better off than they've ever been. Energy was always expensive relative to income. When I was a kid in the…
What would you be spending that money on exactly? If you can't afford to unplug on the weekend, spend time with family / friends, then you are poor.
That name is taken, especially for anything web related.
Search is great, using Kagi. Just bought the family plan, never going back to google. Also FastMail.
Indeed. This was not such an issue when everybody had their own website or blog or whatever, and you had to seek out content intentionally... It's the active intervention of an algorithmic megaphone that is causing the…
Delighted to see something made in Ireland that didn't come from a multinational... The Zorin brothers have worked on this since they were teenagers. https://stconleths.ie/the-zorin-brothers-technology-for-huma... They…
Excellent piece, captivating. I found many parallels here to managing IT. So much of control theory and systems engineering is relevant to developing and deploying cloud systems, improving performance etc... Many times…
Virtually zero ads using firefox mobile... I don't know how normal people can stand surfing the web these days ..
Is this a submarine article for food corps or what? Yes, it's hard work to make food by hand, but for fucks sake, our ancestors did it for generations, without any modern appliances or temperature controlled ovens. This…
I am a paid user. I use Thunderbird on my desktop. This is a waste of time and money. Put the money into proper EU based data centres instead.
For those who hated the unmaintainable mega spreadsheet of death, MS Access was actually a quite decent solution. It allowed you to sprinkle some structure and maintainability onto a spreadsheet without losing the…
Honourable mention to ZincSearch, if you are looking for a lightweight single binary (golang) alternative: https://github.com/zincsearch/zincsearch I have no affiliation.
If it's your connection, why on earth would you want to break the crypto? You already have the keys and the message...
Unless folks are regularly sending 32GB emails, this CVE is not severe in this context.
