Ah I was wondering why I couldn't get past 600 nits on my M5 why it worked great on my M1. Guess I'll just have to live without it for now

By any chance, do you know what Claude Code's sandbox feature uses under the hood and how that relates to your solution ? From what I remember it also uses the native MacOS sandbox…

IIRC from a comment in another thread, it's marked as deprecated to stop people from using it directly and to use the offical macOS tools directly. But it's still used internally b…

I'm not a native English speaker, but I read a lot of books in their original English. Being able to quickly look up a word you've never encountered is a god send I find myself rea…

I've downloaded a few from yggtorrent, but there might be some more niche/less public sites I'm not aware of

The weird thing is that when I tried to tell it to distill it to a much smaller message it had no problem outputting it without any followup questions. But when I edited my message…

I've had it refuse to generate a long text response (I was trying to concise a 300kb documentation to 20-30kb to be able to put it in the project's context), and every time I asked…

Do you happen to have the name of the place you found it ? I'm in France, and I wasn't really able to find anything with a quick google search

I also found that passing all the codebase in a single file in the context works really well. I've tried Cursor et al, but I found that it not having the full context of the codeba…

I switched to an Ergodox-EZ about 3 years ago, and I don't regret doing it at all. I didn't switch layout tho, stayed on AZERTY. My experience is that at first it was very frustrat…

Auth0 seems to be down as well, we can't use the login forms on our websites nor login onto the management console itself. Getting timeouts everywhere

I found a tool to do just that, iCloud Photo Downloader[1] (tho you do need to have your photos backed up to iCloud). I run it as a cron on my NAS, and the only intereaction I need…

Out of curiosity, how does your Image Similarity Search works ? Are you also using some feature of Apple's Vision framework, or running some ML model on your linode instance ?

Highly recommend this as well, it has been a godsend for me for digging into multi-GB Cloudfront log files and extracting stats and patterns. There is a good (albeit a bit old now,…

Looks like the image in the article is a crop of this[1] view, which can be accessed in high res. You can find all the JWT images in full res on here[2]. [1]: https://stsci-opo.org…

Basically, to validate a block, you need to bruteforce a SHA-256 hash of the block by incrementing a nonce in it. And by essence, bruteforceing is wasteful (and by extension, expen…

I have a feeling that this breach is older than what they're letting on. On July 27th, I received ~7 emails, about 10 minutes apart, warning me of a new device logging in my Plex a…

(Semi)surprisingly, Strasbourg looks like a good contender as well, as it covers a good portion of the blue banana, most of Germany, and about half of France

A couple of years ago I started architecting transcoding/streaming video pipelines on AWS for my work. It sparked a general interest/curiosity into the internal workings of video c…

From personal experience, I feel like the crash following a multi-day binge isn't necessarily due to amphetamine withdrawls, but more so the consequences of multi-day sleep depriva…

As a semi-regular user of speed, I can almost guarantee you that a gram of street amphetamine is nowhere near 100% concentrated. You would be lucky to find it at 20% (cut with half…

You might be interested by the book "Consciousness and the Brain" by Stanislas Dehaene. In it, Dehaene tries to define Consciousness, based on a series of reproducible experiments …

On macos, whenever I have a high memory pressure, coupled to a large swap usage, I find that the system becomes really sensitive to I/O intensive tasks. If I start an IO intensive …

I've tried, but for me limiting myself to the default/whole integer scaling is more of a pain than the bugs I encounter with it. With 4k, at 1:1 I basically have two choices of res…
