    Everytime I see a post about Japan here, I search this. It was funny to find this likely GPT-generated result in the first few results. PS: please delete this account?

    This comes after this year selling the rights to the Transformers movie series, an arguably larger hit to their ability to have mainstream impact. It seems very unlikely they would…

    Just "terrible for desktop". I don't have any data to back it up so take it with a grain of salt, but I suspect for desktop Linux use, Ubuntu is far more prevalent than RHEL, and p…

    From what I understand, cars in Japan are all capped at 180 km/h, and cars that are capable of more often have a gps check to unlock automatically when on a known race track. 180 i…

    I had a similar experience with a Chinese scam seller on eBay with a $500 GPU. tl;dr neither ebay nor PayPal would accept a claim because they had proof of receipt from DHL. Of cou…

    Not sure I quite follow the point, Microsoft maintains PyLance and Pyright, tools that have had a large positive impact on Python development, including AI. Not sure about live sha…

    The article specifically is about AI. Don't most useful LLM models require too much RAM for consumer Nvidia cards and also often need those newer features, making it irrelevant tha…

    I suspect many developers, including OpenAI engineers are using VSCode, maybe TypeScript for frontend engineers, GitHub for sure which had no real features like pull request approv…

    I think it's closer to 1%. If the average Googler drinks 500 lattes per year on campus, this seems to enable about 5 more off campus.

    Most people in jail will have lost much more than just a blog. We really need to have some more perspective here, memories of when sites just disappeared completely all the time ma…

    I have something in Dropbox from many years ago which I don't remember. It tomorrow I found I couldn't login to my account since it was deleted, yes I would wonder what I lost, but…

    Since the post was way too long to be without motives, presumably.

    Am I the only one that remembers frequent outages before the acquisition? I didn't keep track in a spreadsheet or anything so don't have any data to back it up though but always as…

    I'm assuming they're both VC companies in the same portfolio and are cross-marketing. If not, the the descriptions on both sides seem quite excessive indeed...

    It would probably be worth paying/staffing whatever though since people may do something for free, but it may not be enough to make a happy end user. Not all companies miss this, A…

    Exactly this. There was a time I tried diversifying from mostly FDN (tech only) to include VTI (S&P) to still trend growth. And eventually realizing these indexes are mostly the sa…

    YouTube premium allows watching content without ads for a similar price. It's unlikely that they actually stop Google trackers for youtube premium users though so you pay and get n…

    My running joke is that it would be awesome if Satoshi Nakamoto were North Korean and this was all planned from the start. I'd give it a 10% chance of being the case.

    Ko works ok but lacks a lot of configurability, compared to something like jib, that does end up important. There are a few open issues on it but the commit history is basically de…

    It's ok to flag this since it's not related to hacking and otherwise long and boring. Isn't it?

    Just for reference I did give it a try https://github.com/wasilibs/go-zstd Mostly since I hadn't found `compress` supports zstd. Wazero performed reasonably well against the cgo li…
