    Welp, the biggest reason that I use Edge just got thrown out, time to switch to Firefox.

    "closing the harness is antiparallel to what users want."

    Germany requires e.Vs to have democratic governance as a response / reaction to what happened during WW2, where every organization was retooled to run under "Führerprinzip" aka, on…

    I've heard that learning WebGPU is a pretty decent alternative, it's cross-platform, has runners that are non-web, and has some of the niceties of Metal without being platform lock…

    Apollo solves many issues that Sunshine has on Windows. If your host is Windows, a correctly configured Apollo (i.e. where virtual monitor is enabled) will be a way less frustratin…

    The extremely charitable answer is that this is AMD's chance to control the built-in software, so they can ship a bunch of built-in AI stuff and a controlled environment similar to…

    I mean just like GGUFs aren't technically necessary yet are _way_ more convenient than using Safetensors and configuring the default Jinja prompt by-hand, it makes sense to bundle …

    The exit tax doesn't apply to "gains", it applies to the "value of your company" which is calculated in a way that often means you will owe thousands or even millions in money you …

    The vast majority of children cannot and do not buy and pay for VPNs and use them to evade anything. The second that governments said "We intend to ban VPNs" they gave away the gam…

    This article is likely AI slop, none of this is "news" and I'm pretty sure that this is just factually Not Accurate. Windows 11 is not shipping a new media player, it has the same …

    If you're hitting this you have a bug, this is not related to the model. Either your harness is editing the messages between turns incorrectly (i.e. it is not append-only), or some…

    No headless RDP solution is pretty unforgiveable in 2026 - right now I use Nomachine and indeed it requires X11. Why wouldn't Wayland have a solution for this? It is not a niche us…

    Sure but MediaTek isn't making the actual CPU, they're just making the unimportant parts of the chipset, who cares

    It's an ARM64 CPU with a nVidia GPU rather than garbage Adreno, not bad

    Proton Mail not supporting filters for message bodies is brutal, I understand why they don't do it but that really lowers its usability for me. Bummer.

    Honestly, for most open-source apps where you don't want to Deal with this, the answer is to just get it into Homebrew. They handle re-signing apps using the local computer's ad-ho…

    I don't think this is true. A normal CS signing cert is sufficient for most commercial apps - you will get the SmartScreen warning for a few days but it will go away fairly quickly…

    This hasn't been my experience, ROCm is usually not only a bit slower for me (~32 t/s vs ~43 t/s on the main model I use), it is way less reliable; any upgrade in kernel version or…

    Sure but on the flip side, skills not being in context means that for many harnesses, the model simply never finds them. Whether MCP or Skills are "better" depends extremely heavil…

    Came in getting ready to hate on this article, but was actually pleasantly surprised, this is great. Good work OP.

    That'll work great until your first customer from a CJK or RTL language writes in, "Hey, how come I can't type in your app?", or the blind user writes in "Hey how come your app is …

    A pervasive "Someone needs to do something!!!" attitude is why. Americans will forever wait for the school principal to come and get everyone into trouble

    The code generator just recreates the C header files in C#, let's not be dramatic.
