In September the Russians accused the Ukrainians of having repairing downed Geran drone airframes at the Lviv LORTA plant, transferring them to Yavoriv, and launching them unarmed …

There's no real solution other than long-term tariffs. However the President doesn't have the power to do it and Congress doesn't have the willpower. 6-month flash-in-the-pan effor…

I don't like the title. The article actually describes the process of proving that dqlite does not have the same bug as SQLite, using a TLA+ specification. The SQLite bug fix was e…

Part of this is an argument for size limits on PRs. Another part is "how do we communicate project goals and ideals and standards?" The answer to that, I'd argue, is not simple, an…

Are they gatekeeping to protect against AI "slop" or are they gatekeeping to protect an inefficient and non-scalable review process against velocity? I've seen policies like this i…

So what has actually shipped? I'm already using much many more AI-coded projects in my daily life than I was a few months ago.

Advocating for small inching change to a rate is different from advocating from small inching change. Easy example: if you are in a car with an accelerator pedal depressed.

On the contrary, asking for well-thought out political thought is the most reasonable demand in the world. If you have an idea about health care, national defense, or trade policy,…

Your statement has no basis whatsoever in reality. The US, for example, had a four-decade moratorium on immigration beginning in 1924. Mass immigration flows appeared at various ti…

You may be interested to learn that American immigration flows were higher or lower at various times (nearly zero for long periods). As you allude to with Native Americans, the eff…

Okay. Let's choose a small random country as a basis for your immigration ideas. Ie., Rwanda (pop 14.8m) or Israel (pop 10.24m). What is the quantity of immigration flow that you w…

That will always be true for some individuals. But the sector isn't going away. Everyone is retooling right now and it's hard to tell what this generation of AI is even going to do…

I'd be interested in more details about the 17mph collision as well. Was it a dead-center collision with a pole after hard braking? Was it a mirror clip or a curb clip or something…

I saw this on X last week and assumed that it was a question from a Tesla user trying out smart summon.

The people most susceptible to consensus mirage are, by the very nature of the beast, the ones least aware of it happening to themselves. Any opinion that you find yourself praised…

Clippy is almost certainly the most hated computer avatar in all of human history. Jar Jar Binks or Wesley Crusher come to mind as equivalent foci of psychic negativity. Using him …

Running the first question as a test against mradermacher's GGUF of the 20b heretic fails when running llama.cpp as Q4_K_M, but successfully generates the tutorial with larger bett…

I have a Tesla and a drive FSD back and forth to work every day. It's great Edit in response to your edit: Would I risk myself standing in front of a FSD Tesla versus in front of a…

That first crash sure doesn't sound like Autopilot/FSD, given that the car kept going after the crash.

0%. This is entirely on the driver. He's someone who should spend a few years in prison, and then never be allowed to have a license again. A foot on the gas overrides braking on a…
