    I've been having some similar thoughts lately about some application spaces being more harmful than others. Coding, for example, seems somewhat benign, because code has to fulfil c…

    I'm not widely read in history (though I've been improving of late), but for what it's worth, my favorite book on history "beyond Greece and Rome" so far has been Charles C. Mann's…

    From what I've seen in the blog post, this is underselling it a bit. They did improve on the color mixing model, and they're launching filaments to match to make it an end-to-end p…

    Right, because the US and Chinese governments don't do/encourage any strategic investments into critical technologies. Somehow people are only upset when Europeans dare to do the s…

    Personally, I don't attend them since I figured out I can set up agents to performatively engage in AI-related discussion and events for me, freeing up tons of my time thanks to au…

    I occasionally port software I make to MacOS, while mainly being a Linux user, and I settled on a base model, 8 GB M2 Mac Mini for this as well. If it's zippy there, it'll be zippy…

    I've done zero debugging on my Prusa and it's been pretty much fire and forget. I had one spaghetti print failure in years on it, and it was my own fault for disabling supports and…

    Not to sound hipster about it, but if it's done in this way I find it charming. I also had to piece it together, which took me on a little virtual travel tour, and had me wonder ab…

    This is lovely. I'd love it if this or the Framework Pro also had OLED options, though. My aging Thinkpad P1 (1st Gen) has a great LCD, but it's also the last non-OLED screen in my…
