Viewing profile — Insanity

Gotta find exercise that is fun though. Don’t just try one thing and give up, it takes time to find what you enjoy. I’ve been swimming for 15 years, but only got into bouldering 1.…

You forgot the mandatory meditation session!

It's not true indeed.

On the flip side of scary, it can put your problems in perspective and offer some kind of solace. I guess it's a bit of both :)

I would love this in a 60% keyboard, seems great for travel and work. Any plans to support different form factors in the future?

Soon we can start posting "GitHub {x} is up!" instead, that's becoming more news-worthy lol. I know they like to blame AI/scaling, but really they are owned by one of the main hype…

Back in the good 'old' days, by playing repeatedly on the same server. On many games I've played (JK, UT, COD1-4), the servers just turned into giant chat rooms after 9pm or so. Yo…

A book I enjoyed in a similar vain is "Wordslut", it's an exploration of the etymology of various English words (mostly pejoratives today) and the difference in language use betwee…

Yeah, I’ve been on Steam for about 20 years now and I can’t recall many bad moments with Valve. The only one that comes to mind is the “outrage” when they decided to release L4D2 j…

Fair enough, not everyone can separate the art from the artist.

One of the great things about reading on the Kindle is that you can just highlight the esoteric words and the dictionary will explain it to you. Or you can use wikipedia if you nee…

Why?

Unrelated to the post and to the actual series.

I had to avoid caffeine for some time due to medical issues. I really missed the morning ritual of waking up slowly with a cup of coffee, so I replaced it with decaf coffee which s…

I know you're saying this tongue in cheek. But the reason they're shuttering Alphafold is (likely) to assign those engineers and their expertise to Generative AI initiatives like G…

That's what they'll sell you. But fundamentally current LLM implementations seem to be the wrong methodology for 'AGI' and I don't think we're remotely close to having this.

And without coffee! So you can't get a quick 'pick me up' along the way.

I think they generally take some approximations, but yeah the walking one is problematic. Horseback is also mentioned, but depending on wealth you could use regular stops across th…

I couldn’t replicate it either. Not sure if the user who discovered it, accidentally did this in an environment with “memory” like an OpenClaw.

Given how poor their Ukrainian war is going, this is a strange move. I guess it’s mostly just posturing?

I’ve never seen anything point to Anthropic being profitable.

Given how heavily subsidized it is at the moment, the efficiency isn’t as important. Typically efficiency would give you more at lower cost, but with token prices so removed from a…

At least the dot com crash left us with m useful infrastructure. And it didn’t price regular customer out of the computer market. Going to have to sell a kidney to build a new gami…

True indeed, I definitely missed some sleep because of books.

Well, I guess both risk management and the 5 stages are inherently a human activity. Not too surprised that behaviour transfers across personal/professional boundaries. :D
