Ollama is great. I discovered it today while looking for a way to serve LLMs locally for my terminal command generator tool (cmdh: https://github.com/pgibler/cmdh) and was able to get it up and running and implement…
Yep, the compensation has been lagging compared to the money it's been generating.
The error in the author's code seems to be better described as an "unnecessary function call" than a "stray parentheses". I spent more time looking for that stray parentheses than I should have before noticing the call…
It's certainly an issue to consider if you're starting a company. If you are creating a organization that is less focused on making money as a core element like a business is, then you should feel fine using .org or any…
The amount of progress over time is a bell shaped curve. For a period of time after the technology becomes practical, it will get more funding & smart people involved. During that time most of the major advanced in the…
Adderall helps me with focus and motivation but it makes me feel absolutely not like myself. I've done various drugs throughout my life but the feeling I had on Adderall was honestly downright scary once I had wrapped…
Some people have goals with their speculation. I assure you many of these people are gamblers, but there are plenty of reasonable folk in the space too. It's just you don't hear them beating the drum as loudly as the…
What about coins forked from Monero? What about other privacy coins? Are certain cryptographic algorithms going to be banned when used in a cryptocurrency? These are all loopholes they'd have to tie up if they want to…
> Bitcoin and cryptos ought to be banned for good. Strong statement but if you have a valid argument then I can be convinced. > Cryptocurrencies are scam and outright bubble that will bring down the world economy. And…
Playing a videogame competitively to be #1 is well an good. Playing a sport to be #1 is well and good. But it can't be the only thing you do. Tom Brady has 5 Superbowl rings but he's involved with so many other pursuits…
I had many friends who grinded from Bronze/Silver/Gold up to higher ranks playing thousands of hours. Frankly though, I think these players would've been better served with more fun casual time killing modes, but like I…
I think the multiplayer is plenty accessible to players below Masters level. The matchmaking in SC2 was always more fair than the team based matchmaking games because 1v1 ELO systems are legitimately fair systems,…
The problem with games like League & DotA is they're nearly impossible to understand what's going on as a spectator unless you already play the games. They're a victim of their own complexity - over 100 characters each…
SC2 is a beautiful game, as a spectator sport and as a competitive activity. I've put about thousands of hours into the game, achieving Masters in 1v1 ranked 8x. I've thought long and hard about what Blizzard could have…
>don't believe for a second "everyone should own." You really should own if you're going to stay in the same place. If you can't take care of your place, and you rely on a landlord to do it, you're going to be in for a…
This to both. However, the problem with the web is there are old implementations that must be maintained in browsers for backwards compatibility. The issue with this is that it increases the barrier to entry for web…
Bingo. If this had the tasks split up among multiple threads/processes correctly and using a very fast performing language + good developers, the tickrate is less important. Some army control module could manage the…
I get the feeling software engineers are going to end up net positive in grey matter regardless of their gaming habits just because of the nature of the job.
Thanks. I was wondering if I was the only one who noticed that as well. The entire point of Mulan was to show that regardless of your gender you could be a powerful leader and warrior. Her pretending to be a man is…
Unless you can build a time machine. Sci-fi is foiled again!
Having known Alex in college, it's crazy to me to see how far he's come. I just remember him as the chill guy who smoked me in Halo worse than I ever had been ever. All I have to say is what a great guy he is and that…
On top of them just being pests, when the deer populations are out of control like they are currently, diseases become dramatically more widespread and fatal.…
Melatonin is naturally occurring and works wonderfully for me. After popping 3mg, I'm out after an hour. Worth a shot, if anything.
It certainly is, but like any trade job, it requires motivation to learn it. And it evolves at a rate no other field ever has, so you have to be mentally invested for the long run to succeed long-term. It's a bit harder…
Oof, why not try something like setting up a Vagrant machine running Linux instead of rewriting the entire project? Seems a lot simpler and way better for the project.
