Humanity is A/B testing itself into mediocrity.
What the author suggests is remarkably close to the proposition of OpenViking. I've been testing a few memory solutions and OpenViking is one of my favorites so far.
My point is: they blame it on scale. If that's the story they want us to believe, then they have to explain WHY such a simple fix isn't possible. There may be non technical reasons for it, even: legal, or PR, but if…
Honestly? If the problem is scalability, just rate limit git commands on free accounts already. Nobody realistically need to push multiple times per minute, and that alone is bound to trickle down to anything that…
There are other options. I worked for a startup called NVXL and we were programming DNNs into FPGAs using OpenCL, on custom boards we built to plug into NVME. It worked great, but it wasn't fast enough at the time to…
It's been 5 hours and instead of "any" questions, you have only been happy to answer the 1 question that hasn't put you in a tight spot. Honestly, that does not look too good for you or the offering - and this is coming…
"For video game developers, the CD-ROM was an odd beast. The capacity far exceeded the quantity of assets they were able to produce. A few titles, like 7th Guest (1993) or Phantasmagoria (1995) introduced Full Motion…
I have another weak correlation to TEMU to add. I have never, ever, bought anything on TEMU, because anytime I open the website it gives me a gambling roulette for some supposed discount thing. I hate gambling, so…
I draw a line on advertising for myself: if it's just letting me know a service or product exists, it's fine. It's a business necessity. If I ever start a business, I need a way to communicate to potential customers…
I'm with the developer here. At some point the effort is just not worth it anymore. Facebook, as a platform, has long since lost the relevance as a social network, it is basically just an ad platform these days. So why…
>How ATLAS has been developed "We picked some results we wanted to show and told gemini to cherry pick data that would fit in. As you can see, it was not a lot."
Isn't that what "Attention is all you need" was about anyway? Does not sound like news to me.
The blog post is from June 19th. Google Doc from June 17th. My guess? He shared the Google Doc link with his peers, but forgot that Google Docs links are public for anyone who knows the link, so someone just forwarded…
It's a very, very thin web layer on top of native code: https://cockpit-project.org/guide/latest/features.html To the author's defense: Cockpit is Linux only, and they seem to intend on making this also available on…
I get it, but if the author of the article uses a biased and loaded language, I think it's fair game to do the same in the comments.
Author apparently has never heard about Cockpit. Everything they mention as "missing", or "novel" has been part of Cockpit for over a decade, from socket-based web server connection, backend-frontend separation for…
This is it. People mistake deterministic for precise/exact/correct. It's not.
I think I have a simpler answer: quarterly results. Management just really needs to make the next earnings look like what it should look. Next quarter is next quarter's problem.
I used stow for a long time, then tried Ansible, but eventually settled into good old Make. `make dotfiles` just creates a bunch of symlinks, takes 5 minutes, all good and happy. Everything is modular, declarative,…
> Why do they only clone new repositories, rather than popular ones? > Why do they delete a commit and push a new one every few hours? Because this is not targetted to humans. It's targetted to agents. They just need to…
The title was a bit misleading. When I read it, I interpreted it as "let's encrypt bans certificate usage in - any territories endorsed by the US". Took me reading a couple comments to understand it actually meant…
Is that bad though? Think about it. If you're paying all your bills, all your wages, and you have a strong product that people enjoy, and you're able to compete in the market - maybe not gaining any ground, but at least…
I'm a convert. I was 100% skeptical about LLM code generation, now over 80% of the professional code I write is generated. That said, the limitations are kind of obvious and are starting to show in some of my projects,…

Being a fan of A24 I half wish I lived nearby!
