    So the author recycled 10 pounds of plastic, but used 8.5 pounds of glue to do so (184 sticks at 0.74 oz which seems to be average for glue sticks). Cool project, but that ratio se…

    We've been running YOLO for a number of years (since v5) on soccer videos. None of the recent iterations have been significantly better, with v26 scoring worse then v9 and v11 on o…

    We happened to be in Borsh beach around a week or so ago, and that will be a tourist wreck in 2 years. Multiple working sites, 70% of the beach already claimed by beds. Quite laid-…

    Very interesting idea, I hope you can progress this into a well working, proven application. I tried to do something very similar a year or 2 ago, more directed towards meditation.…

    This seems exactly not what you want. If fully invested in this, you never have the freedom to switch tools, ie go to a different team chat solution. The benefits of having these a…

    This is sort of what their first sentence states? Except your line implies that they are fast in training and inference, they imply they are focusing on inference and are dropping …

    And here I am, feeling slightly ashamed at taking 1 or 2 flights a year. These "commute" statistics are staggering.

    Cost wise it does not seem very effective. .5 token / sec (the optimized one) is 3600 tokens an hour, which costs about 200-300 watts for an active 3090+system. Running 3600 tokens…

    Which seems weird, it's very technical. Monolith design, relationship types, I've never met an HR person who wondered about those kinds of things

    Surprising how badly Jetbrains implemented AI. Apparently to such an extent that even after multiple years of LLM's someone felt confident enough to build a company that can do bet…

    Cool social experiment. It's interesting how narrow the scope of all top voted PRs are: change this or that detail in the voting (daily, count down votes etc), or make it more effi…

    Is the dependancy on Cloudflare worth the saved time in infrastructure? Getting a big bare metal and deploying a docker should go a long way. This implementation sounds fully depen…

    Super easy? Getting that setup for the first time from zero knowledge will probably take a few days. And that's before understanding all the intricacies like your AWS bill, the hid…

    Which is peanuts compared to the 350 million that the VCs invested. You're totally right, but I think the internal financial pressure is higher.

    I'm using it for a 10.000+ multisite installation (quite simple personal blogs), and even though it has it quirks it works quite well. Almost nothing is best in class and a slight …

    This is a bit too much of an apples vs oranges. Use cases for PHP (easy to develop, maintain websites) are different from those for Go and Rust. Obviously, PHP came from a place of…

    I think they do. Given the damage that leaked keys can do (especially in the Bitcoin mining area) it must be an expensive problem for them.

    Exactly. Like so many popular non-fiction books these days, there's about 15 pages of content fluffed up with 200 pages of anecdotes to be able to sell it as a book.

    http://nonint.com/ has some interesting posts about how he build a custom server to house 8 GPU's (3090's in this case). You're right that that will set you back more than $1000, t…

    You might be interested in http://nonint.com/ . He made a number of quite detailed blogposts on his 2 gpu machines (both 8x 3090's), including racks, power delivery etc

    Reading the timeline at the bottom makes this seem like a very frustrating process, it took multiple nudges and over a year for Valve to even start fixing. I can't imagine putting …

    Some people use second hand P40 GPUs, which go for around 200-300$. Combine 3 of them with SLI and you've got 72GB of VRAM for less then $1000
