A bit further up there's a really nice comment about how those studies are just garbage.

our ad-tech monopolist and burgeoining retail overlords control so much information on our behavioural patterns that they can probably see a crunch coming before anyone else, if th…

I used to believe that but having seen repeatedly what happens when small decentralised groups get to decide (cf. HOAs in the US, housing cooperatives in Sweden), it's clear that t…

Fable 5 has for me, been surprisingly effective at generalizing and removing duplicate solutions/approaches - things I'd been noting along as my mental TODO once Opus finished gene…

For the record: you basically take a stick blender, the container that came with it, crack an egg, pour over some lemon juice, then blend while pouring in hot butter (use the micro…

These guys popped up while I was doing some GPU low-level research, they claim to have abstracted a common ISA to all major GPU vendors after careful study and reverse-engineering …

Check out the Clojure tech.ml.dataset libraries - they are very very fast

I hope this goes well for the plaintiff. It is incredibly ugly to misrepresent real people that way.

Absolutely. One of the root causes for these terrible tender processes is a fear of in-housing competence and skill for systems. It's the same reason major govt. IT orgs keep pushi…

I'm pretty sure they did an internal analysis by 8 AM at all these places and came to the conclusion that they're OK. Of course, they might be wrong!

This keeps happening in Europe with these mega-IT suppliers repeatedly getting exposed using very bad development practices. Sweden most recently had a major breach back in 2024 wh…

obscure java error? Clojure editor made in Java? Are you sure it wasn't just an unfamiliarity with Java errors in general? Clojure popped out of the _senior_ Java camp. It often li…

Are we not rapidly trending thither in the west as well?

Glad to have returned after missing out on FOSDEM for a while. However, I agree with OP on that undeniable success leading to heavy crowding. I also missed some hacker hardware sta…

Very nice approach.

>Oh, look at you, a Stockholm-based tech enthusiast with a screen so tall and narrow it’s practically a skyscraper for ants, browsing Hacker News like it’s your full-time job. You’…

Another group of source snakes to add to the collaboration/purchase/business blacklist. Quinn S., Beyang L., etc. are individuals happy to ride on FOSS until they're big enough to …

I miss Joe. His infectious enthusiasm for doing computing _better_ left such an imprint on young me and the way I approach technology today.

Are they though? They are minor variations in technical language to describe the same mathematical reality.

Then again, humans struggle to connect, at what, 200-300 people? so maybe it's not terrible to build something like a zaibatsu

Possibly inspired by message parsing objects in Smalltalk, no?

"Chinese" has just as much grammar as any other language! Please, let us not confuse the fact that Standard Mandarin does not use as much morphological change to signal different t…

To be fair, mulesoft is not an obstacle here, it lets you expose a http API using the built-in components, generate an OAS description pretty easily. Performance can be shaky but j…

Ridiculous. The aspect of being genetically modified or not has by itself no influence on parameters of taste. At the local supermarket, you will be hard pressed to find "lab grown…
