    No, they are correct, residential proxies behind a big ISP's CGNAT is much more valuable for miscreants because you can't block the individual who installed a free android flashlig…

    But the overall latency will be longer than expected because you add the latency from the proxy connection as well. If you're able to ping back to the connecting IP in combination …

    It sounds like Wayland. When you decide to suddenly stuff some of the most complex pieces of software together (the X server and the compositor which sometimes also double as a des…

    Arch actually has testing repos (and has had for as long as I can remember), plus other project-specific testing repos like kde-unstable when upstream is taking a very long time to…

    It has to be a pain, everything depends on them (or rather, should, you still have holdouts like go fucking up things like NSS, holding back posix_spawn etc.). In their defense the…

    Norway seems like an obvious counter example? If the unions and state grow enough power before resources start to get extracted it seems like they can keep the curse in check. It h…

    OWS showed that you don't even need drones and robots.

    Try looking at the SVG code for one of those converted from bitmaps, and I think you'll understand why even a massive LLM has trouble generating it on the fly (the pelican SVGs are…

    I've written more than a couple of "slide rendering engines" (though usually with an actual renderer, not a website templating thing like reveal.js).

    Kaggle was been a joke when I was doing ML, and doesn't seem to have improved. It was a neat place to host/download some big datasets before huggingface.

    Anathem was so chock full of interesting ideas, too bad the last parts of it were so rushed (or at least felt that way to me).

    It smells like Gemini to high heavens, how familiar are you with its writing? If nothing else because of the complete lack of relevant links.

    Comment #48951233

    One of the issues with Wayland is that it forces every compositor to reimplement the X server, badly. So you can't really "fix it", short of patching e. g. Gnome's compositor, with…

    It's quite easy to get it to do syscalls directly, I even got Fable to do a simple standalone TLS implementation (in C). Not really useful since it hardcoded a set of supported alg…

    Evidence in the other direction (that they're able to generalize) is that I can't think of any LLM currently that can't create usable (placeholder) SVG icons, I tried a bit before …

    SVG output is useful, though. I often ask whatever LLM I have open to generate placeholder icons whenever I need them.

    You are very naive about the neutrality of Wikipedia. Maintaining the Wikipedia page is part of what any PR/reputation management agency does.

    I think you have rosy eyed glasses (or never inspected the output too closely), Gemini 3.1 Pro was very bad at hallucinating.

    wikipedia happily censors domains, it's not a free speech community.
