Intelligence and size of the model might not be that correlated after all. I for one feel like human level intelligence can be replicated with multiple small models, such as vision…

Did you look at 1X's artificial tendon driven hands?

That is what I also wonder, who added that tootbrush statement there? Given that Oral-B has done replacable batteries for years, and they have dominant position, I'm thinkin that s…

I also have Kobo Clara BW, and don't like swipe gestures, or any gestures whatsoever. I (now) know why I don't like that, because regular book and magazines, you don't have to thin…

I also discovered that these days motherboards come with a payload in their chipset, which gets installed automatically in background unless you figure out to turn it off from BIOS…

SQLite has no date data type. Also SQLite has no way to call EXPLAIN on query and get the dummy type name either for arbitrary SELECT query, so you can't even infer it, if you were…

Yeah, "?." as safe navigation operator even in JS where it already exists is eye-sore. They could use some other single character instead of two characters. Question mark is alread…

Rust should (eventually) support arrays of structures via compile-time reflection: https://fnordig.de/2026/03/25/rust-reflection-and-a-multi-ar...

Node refuses to support TypeScript within node_modules, see https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/58429 this means you can't do "Typescript-only npm packages". They made that inten…

If I saw this in my CI script: curl -X POST $GITHUB_CACHE_URL It would make me pause, but now that it is a misfeature in YAML configuration it is more widely used. Point of bash sc…

What I want to focus on is mental model of your CI pipeline, and problem with too much YAML, consider this quote: > Cache scope is per-repo, shared across pull_request_target runs …

Wow, amazing work. Pretty impressive that it is faster than the Go version already.

`android docs` is the superpower we need for everything. NPM / pnpm should have similar `npm docs` that would allow humans and agents to search for type-signatures and JSDocs. It i…

AVBD also has this page https://graphics.cs.utah.edu/research/projects/avbd/ I don't know how this implementation differs from the one they are demoing but this one by Jure Triglav…

What is the reason they don't use the WebView2? Microsoft Teams uses WebView2, surely it should be enough for Copilot. This defeats the whole point of having WebView builtin and sh…

I happen to be just now experimenting with app states. Out of interest, you mean something like this? https://gist.github.com/Ciantic/63526ebfe65570b669eca33bf340... What would be …

Let me present you my favorite, how do you figure out dirname, basename and filename in batch script? set filepath="C:\some path\having spaces.txt" for /F "delims=" %%i in (%filepa…

I know not all, but Debian/Ubuntu/Fedora does, and while the intended purpose of multi-stage releases is not necessarily security but stability, it still does help up with security…

NPM should learn from Linux distribution package managers. Have a branch called testing, and packages stay in testing for few weeks, after which they go to stable. That is how many…

ChatGPT has style settings, you probably should set it to something else than the default. Go to your personalization settings and change base style and tone. I have set it as 'eff…

I've been using podman, and for me it is good enough. The way I use it I mount current working directory, /usr/bin, /bin, /usr/lib, /usr/lib64, /usr/share, then few specific ~/.asp…

I wish they support Linux wholeheartedly, a lot of toolkits and GUI frameworks do it by half-assing things, mostly because Wayland is difficult to understand. In Wayland you have m…

I've used Claude and AWS CDK to build infra code during past year, it is great help but it is not to be trusted. I would not even consider it for Ralph Wiggum Loop style iteration …

If I understand this problem was in rkyv, and solution is using rkyv with glue code. I hope they could integrate some sort of official derive macro `rkyv::Sparse` for this if it ca…

More and more of the internet of humans need to rely on recommendations of other humans. Lobste.rs and other like such that retain the tree of joined people could work for other co…
