This is one of my theories why AI is well-suited for these kinds of projects. It's mostly CRUD, written in well-known patterns. This not to discount the programmer or the job in ge…

Wanna chat with my friend, who coded a side-bot for his OpenClaw installation just to auto-approve prompts?

There's a step which "flashes" the magnetic structure on the disks during manufacturing which also allows drives to navigate the disk surface and "see" individual sectors. The bad …

Systems running macOS (i.e. Mac systems) use SATA or NVMe disks (depending on their age) which come with their own controllers, hence it's always isolated from the OS except SMART …

Disk firmware follows sectors which are hard to write, flags them as "current pending sector". Then reallocates that sectors data to one of the reserves when it has time and increa…

I find pretty interesting that the memory is not perfect out of the fab and its defects are coded on its label, hence these defects can be loaded to the device using it as a map, s…

I'll also pile-in and say that Kagi is great.

Let me clarify some of the points you have rightfully brought up. As a disclosure, I hail from Turkey. We consume most tea per capita by a large margin, so we might have adapted to…

> Cutting coffee to just the morning definitely helped me. I drink half a mug (~200 ml) at ~2PM. I drink black tea rest of the day. Used to drink 2L/day at some point (it was a con…

In short, it’s either a “not implemented” case or a bug. There’s no other explanation. Complexity of the algorithm or the application doesn’t change the reality.

That’s the point. I only use LLMs if and only if Kagi can’t unearth the thing I’m looking for for a week or so. This means it finds me a single video which is not in a language whi…

> No one likes generating content. Oh no. I see the contrary. One of my friends recently stated (paraphrased): - Since I can generate code, writing it feels mundane now. I don't wr…

In the rare occasion I use LLMs, I always add at least one of the following: - Do not include opinions, just official documentation. - Add all references you have used as a bibliog…

I don't we disagree a little bit, I think. Content and substance also contains "how" alongside "what". At least that was my intention. I stopped sharing my photos publicly to stop …

To be frank, I neither live/work in an environment or live for "climbing" anything, so fluffware is not something I produce or understand. On the other hand, I have friends who pla…

Many of us understood that, and tried to tell it over and over. My keyboard is worn, my mind is numb, my soul is weary from typing/telling that the output is not the aim, but the c…

When I read the post I read nothing about Kimi-K3. I read about someone who used something open and being surprised about the effects of using something open. I read about owning t…

They already did, in my opinion. The text reads: > ...personal account. I work at Modal, and today we just launched Kimi K3 on managed endpoints, and I know Kimi K3 is supposed to …

You might see no information, but I see someone having their opinions really moved, in a serious manner. It's not upvoted because it advertises Kimi. It's upvoted because someone t…

Karpathy doing "vibe check" on models was fine, though. Why they can't do the same thing on something they provide? We have seen self-criticism and self back-pats here. There's no …

In the old hardware terminals, and current terminal emulators, ^H (or CTRL+h) is "Backspace signal". It has the effect of pressing backspace. So, ^H^H^H means "delete three charact…

In short: "We don't propose a ban to open-weight models. we want to stop these models being developed altogether. If there are no models, there'll be nothing to ban". Oh also: "The…

I don't know how other developers think while coding, but if something can error out, I always handle the error first, or at least insert a panic() or equivalent immediately before…

While I have my opinions on manual memory management, I'll not open that file today (well, it may leak). On the other hand, Go explicitly warns and tries to prevent you from ignori…

Intentionally ignoring errors or explicitly not handling them are logic errors. No programming language shall protect you from them. In a little blunt form: This machine has no bra…
