    Jeez. Surely the ECS agent could just query for permission to join a cluster, and disable if disallowed?

    I would kill to see the equipment intel uses to study these things

    Not to mention huge quant firms that paid more than 4x your salary just to get a trading latency advantage

    My comment didn’t really portray what I’m getting at. Food insecurity is obviously an indicator for financial confidence. I know people can afford food, on top of the fact they wil…

    Pretty big gap in quality of life between people who have no worries about their next meal and those who have to stress over every one.

    I think about this problem often in life because of my tendency to procrastinate. Only the long term effects that cause me serious paranoia get any real attention (failing to meet …

    I don't love that this starts an API server on launch and has no option to disable it...

    yes, this is something I have seen used to good effect, for example in the RE:4 remake

    No, I’m just saying I don’t know if buying SPY today would be a good idea.

    SSAO really is awful but it’s the best performing AO we could get for a long time afaik. It’s such a hallmark of 00s and 10s rendering that I laugh every time I see it in a modern …

    Ehhh, I think most engineers that actually want this are pretty accepting of their current tooling and wouldn’t want to switch to a whole new Linux distribution just for a slightly…

    The reality is more along the lines of traditional rendering with special ML models inferring and splicing in generated frames. Framegen is already in most modern games and Nvidia …

    Are you sure you've ever gone above 60hz and 60fps? It is unequivocally agreed to look much better

    Why waste time memorizing arcane flags when you can spend that time actually building things? Frankly I still check man pages for things like tar all the time and I’ve been using l…

    Yes, this is a separate runtime. Docker handles containerization differently with more overhead. OCI is a 'standard' way of constructing container images and both are compatible wi…

    Interesting. From the hyundai manual, driver attention monitoring only uses front sensor with no face recognition in the vehicle as far as I can tell. Are you sure your cruise cont…

    For those interested or forced to buy a new car — I recently picked up a brand new Hyundai and was impressed the new tech does not get in the way. ‘Driver attention warning’ does n…

    This is something audiences are clearly desperate for today. I think it's obvious when looking at the huge success of Helldivers, Bodycam, Ready Or Not, Arc Raiders, (none of which…

    I've done some basic testing of the CoreAI framework (using Apple's official 'llm-runner' and officially supported .coreai converted models) and seen no noticable performance incre…

    Truly despicable shit from these manufacturers. Don't buy smart TVs, or block their network access if you must.

    The web browser is a compiled program. The problem is that it’s a huge program.
