Decathlon is pretty neat and technologically advanced actually, so not surprising news for them to adopt Wero. In eastern European stores they use RFID for every product, so you ju…

This is rather like SAT from 35 years ago. Same strategies apply for guessing the unknown especially with a modicum(it was on the test!) of Latin knowledge.. Strange that pretty ev…

As long as Codex remains so affordable and useful they do not have to slash prices, just keep Codex usable. I keep meaning to try Claude Code, but I can't seem to run out of limits…

Fantastic practical achievement! I wonder if I could get similar or even better performance from similar Dell T7610 workstation with dual Xeons and also 128GB DDR3? The CPUs are be…

I am paraphrasing but I think it was W. Buffett who said: "Work at the job that you do not hate" In other words, not all vocations that you are great at and talented and want to pu…

People do have different emotional response to big achievements. Still this seemingly detached "matter of a business" look by the winners was intriguing. They are all high level at…

Along with already mentioned "Buy, Borrow, Die" strategy is the more widely practiced "Expense everything" strategy which often ends in tax disaster for the practitioner. One of th…

The latest clickbait style can be mitigated by custom instructions. I use: "Tell it like it is; don't sugar-coat responses. Use academic university level explanations unless instru…

One has to be highly suspicious of any "fair, better for others" claims coming from corporate entities. It is the ages old story of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quod_licet_Iovi%2C…

Basically you have Cremant type sparking wines which are produced from other regions of France besides Champagne. It is just like Champagne just that other French regions like Loir…

After, RAM, SSD, GPUs, now HDDs what else is there left to sell out? Power supplies, fans? In a way this feels a bit absurd for these AI centers to hog HDDs. As pointed by others n…

This is very cool and having stalemate is nice, however how much space would it take to implement the full ruleset? As you write: not implemented: castling, en passant, promotion, …

What about SSH requires GUI? I mean I SSH to my Hetzner Ubuntu fun box usually from Powershell or PuTTY, but sometimes I SSH from a Debian server without any GUI.

Interesting information but these are not hard numbers. Surely the 100-char string information of 141 bytes is not correct as it would only apply to ASCII 100-char strings. It woul…

Very simple - look for who has a stake in Groq currently: https://www.cnbc.com/2025/12/24/nvidia-buying-ai-chip-startu... "Davis, whose firm has invested more than half a billion d…

What is current state of the art workflow when working with legacy code across multiple languages? This would be a 100 kLOC legacy project written in C++, Python, and jQuery era Ja…

How about picture gen though on Dall-E? It is so infuriating to get content block on ChatGPT for pretty much any fairy tale that has had a Disney related adaptation. Try getting a …

As I recall Holmes did in fact do a lot of walking. He vacillated between periods of inactivity(cocaine, violin, shooting V in wall with a revolver) and intense activity (taking up…

Indeed regular Jupyter works so well on VS Code for solo work these days that there is no real need for a new entrant. So what pain point are these new entrants trying to solve? Su…

OpenAI has ridiculous guardrails for illustrations covering any public domain subject that has been covered by Disney or any other major public corporation. So by that benchmark Ja…

I have a story from the mechanical side. I spent a month in 2012 roughly 4 hours a day doing various tasks. It was horrible, even if I followed all the "best practices" of Turkers …

It is interesting how much traction this 9B model is getting which is good. Still two month earlier 19 European language model with 30B parameters got almost no mention: https://hu…

This 30 Euro jump in Europe was a kick in the pants for me. Even though it is still a relatively good deal for a Family Plan (compared to say Google Drive or Dropbox) for OneDrive,…

Not OP, but CLIP from OpenAi (2021) seems pretty standard and gives great results at least in English (not so good in rarer languages). https://opencv.org/blog/clip/ Essentially CL…
