I don't know for sure, but after living in Japan for 5 years now, whenever something in a Japanese business feels antiquated, inefficient, or just plain backwards and wrong, it's usually because some manager in an…
What's the future of cybersecurity going to look like? A rapid shift to shoving everything into microvm's to minimize attack surface?
Because the fear mongering is instantly interpreted as the capacity to do miraculous (good or bad) things in the layman's mind, which translates into AI worship, which makes stock lines go up. The Chinese lab playbook…
I never thought of that. Humans avoid machine code for many reasons. If LLM's don't need to produce human-readable output, then why not?
Oof, I've never heard of that and it sounds amazing
At the bottom: "Use of AI: The author prompted Claude and ChatGPT interactively to simplify the proofs, focusing only on disproving basic statement of ETH, without optimizing log factors. The author expanded the proofs…
I wonder how much electricity just gets flushed down the toilet making this stuff.
I'm curious myself, in fact I was kind of relieved to read a long, well written article and just thought it felt human. I hope I'm right
Yes, if you look at the examples the author used such as Indian cotton or tobacco as drivers of increased voluntary labor, both of those carried immediate intangible value as status symbols or bragging rights on top of…
The N64 dev scene seems to be taking off too. If I had to guess, working around limitations in hardware are the fun part for a lot of people.
My wife and I sent our son to a remote "boarding school" type school near where we live in Japan. No phones or electronics beyond an mp3 player are allowed. We're so lucky it is cheap and readily available here. The…
I watched Hackers for the first time in decades recently. Maaaannnn what amazing times they were. Like cowboys exploring the west or something
I know what you mean. Recreating the retro art style of Monkey Island is easy for AI but those little quirks in dialogue and comedic moments... Can an AI do that? It's like, when I watch a movie and there's a married…
I trap and kill hare, and make cheese from fresh milk from my friend's dairy farm. But no, I do not kill the cows that I eat. What do immigrants have to do with this? I shared my opinion that living like our ancestors…
Tell you what, I'll keep eating beef, walking to work, and not using AI. Closer to how our ancestors lived for hundreds of thousands of years, so it can't be too off the mark.
I mean that sounds nice, but when you have countries like China and India, they are going to be far more focused on lifting their population out of poverty over lowering emissions. From their perspective, we're living…
Likewise. The bg3 story felt like a very long, strung out and milked dry "you have sickness x, go the hospital and figure out a treatment" level of depth
Isn't the core issue that energy use and economic growth are deeply connected? If America uses a little less thanks to a carbon tax, it will just be cheaper for india and china, and their prosperity will grow more while…
New West, Vancouver, Canada, so same deal pretty much. As I found out
I'm picking my jaw up off the floor here. Jeez it's... perfect lol. Thanks!
Pretty wild how common it really is. In places you wouldn't expect. I started working night shift in a warehouse when I was in my 20s, and got to know a couple of the funny yet seemingly regular guys. I asked them for…
People still think that's possible? lmao.
Looks nice. I just fell in love with Pragmasevka, a mix of Pragmata Pro and Iosevka. It's pretty much a free Pragmata Pro https://github.com/shytikov/pragmasevka
Yes, besides AI upending everything, it's been a long slow decline with internet communities in general for over a decade now. Instead of having to look for what we think is interesting and talking to people about it,…
I tried to look at it like cooking, or baking: I can make damn good croissants. They'll never be quite as good as someone with a dough sheeter and handmade cultured butter, but my friends and family would never…
