    I expect the majority of Oxide's customers are actively trying to escape Broadcom's VMWare hell. Can't see how something like that would make sense.

    This needs a side-by-side config comparison with something like echarts config schema format. I really don't see the point. I'm 99% sure the verbosity required in the system prompt…

    Right, so the 1.4 TB weight footprint straight away makes me wonder how much more important load/unload time becomes in terms of the neocloud product here. With 1.4TB of weights, a…

    It's lightweight, capability-secured, services start up way faster, smaller overhead than VMs, better isolation than containers, faster replication, etc. The original Wasmtime 1.0 …

    Thanks for that link! There goes my Saturday morning. After a bunch of middle clicking I landed here [0]. So if I understand correctly, the current stack switching proposal depende…

    I would suggest you look at it a little more often than that - to improve the quality of discussion here, if for nothing else.

    Ready for what? WASM is already running in production at a whole bunch of financial services orgs and government infra. The thing is, it's not running anywhere near HTML, CSS or Ja…

    Right, Pravda. Four year old Hacker News account and this is the first comment? The Guardian is only 'left leaning' in that it provides mildly controversial but reassuringly incons…

    Some of you might want to check out throwaway96/dejavuln-autoroot or the older throwaway96/faultmanager-autoroot, www.webosbrew.org/rooting and cani.rootmy.tv. Looks like it's patc…

    I have a personal fork of hyprvoice[0] which I use almost everywhere now (w/ the big cohere-transcribe running on a local vLLM instance). It does a similar thing, but that's not wh…

    Not great, but also not at all surprising. Not sure about other solutions, but one suggested workaround here would be to silently uninstall Windows without consent.

    That's what I mean though. I've not used gnome for years, but I have a vague memory of gnome/mutter running on a single main thread which used to lock up quite a lot (javascript et…

    A lot of people conflate Wayland being worse than X11 with Gnome on Wayland being worse than Gnome on X11. Wayland has been great for me for a few years now. I don't use Gnome or n…

    This is great! Those analytical workloads numbers are mad - I'd love to see the benches, and I'm happy to contribute to some of the profiling. How does your thread-per-connection m…

    The science might be legit here, but I'm getting really, really tired of the way every single piece of writing to come out of Anthropic is written in some kind of self-aggrandising…

    I agree with all of those points, and none of them are relevant to what I was talking about.

    It's not a great solution but it's the best one I've got, and it's still more ecological than driving the (electric) car for the same one-person trip. And audible != loud. Anyway, …

    That og elettrica has been all but cancelled in most markets. It was grossly underpowered and overpriced, which is a shame. IIRC they relaunched it as the primavera elettrica, with…

    I have a couple of Vespas - a '98 T5 and a 2011 PX Unità d'Italia - and honestly my favourite safety feature is the noise they _can_ make. Modern Vespas don’t sound like the old on…

    I'm amazed it's not more popular with a name like that!
