    I do not see any value proposition in this - if I need a sandbox, I make one with Dockerfile, Bubblewrap or virtualization. What I am missing? An enforced required login is a net n…

    I'm intrigued by how it runs on those machines in terms of performance. Maybe you have some real-time videos?

    True, that piece can be optimized better, but quality of the assembly code in general is not far away from what I had been writing in 1993-96. Back then, push/pops in function prol…

    I know a guy who founded an AI-based startup well before ChatGPT, and recently I saw some of his public messages where he stands as an ultimate anti-AI proponent. Meanwhile, his st…

    This is a psychological phenomenon going on right now in the world around AI: gaslight your competitors into doubt and disbelief, then win. I presume that there were similar moveme…

    LLM writes a better ASM then a C compiler? From running the demo in the browser, it seems so performance-wise and size-wise, but the ultimate test should be performed on a real har…

    Exactly this. It's a well-known statistics that macOS users have ~2x better conversion rate into paying customers, while the rest of the equation is determined by the OS market sha…

    This is a bizarre claim to make in this case, AI tech is used on all platforms universally.

    The product you've built the animation for is only for macOS, which is a pity cause it has a way wider appeal than macOS market share is. You have low-hanging fruits right there, d…

    Shallow, haphazardly-written books full of mistakes were a thing even back then. It looks like the publication process expensiveness wasn't a good-enough filter since 1970s.

    Potentially interesting website, but it's impossible to use due to ads plague.

    Claude always was slightly lobotomized - instead of solving problems intellectually, it often prefers to be a middle-level code monkey. Maybe this was a part of the implicit safe m…

    I did mathematics on paper, and informatics on computers. Some of my peers weren't so lucky, so they had to do informatics on paper only. Needless to say that the magnitude of prog…

    I already saw it in my life: a ban on calculators, a ban on computers. But after a short period of rejection, everybody starts to embrace the new tech. Instead of bans we were gett…

    All those "submit your website" tricks attract posers. As a result, we have lots of noise with no associated value. (And yes, you can surely downvote this message because it touche…

    For what it's worth, RAM encryption belongs to professional SKUs. It's the right business decision that should have been made from from the very beginning. For most consumer users,…

    Comment #48510661

    WASM component model is internal to the WASM project, isn't it? As such, it provides interoperability for one and only ecosystem (WASM), and thus has no chances to be perceived wor…

    Wrong direction. WASI should be simple and stable. Initially, it was revolving around a simple Unix-like API model and it was close to perfect. Now, there is an opinionated compone…

    Exactly this. ISPs are tricky players when it comes to peering. A typical symptom: servers in local region/country can easily saturate the connection, when anything external gets c…

    To improve reliability, you can use multiple services from different vendors and implement automatic roll-over with Mikrotik and the likes. This is something I have been doing back…
