    I was shown a full page interstitial for Meta Starfire by Kylie the other day, and it wasn't even the good Kylie. I have doubts they know how to market these if I'm seeing this ad.…

    I'm finding this really strange. These laws as formulated are just straight-up universal identity checks for all Internet users, not ages checks, right? The end of anonymity and ps…

    Drive-by questions for any OpenTTD aficionados: Can anyone recommend a how-to to get the original MIDI music files working on the Android release? The music is uncommonly good in t…

    The Dutch seem to just do the sensible thing and have mobile e-bike dynos. If they suspect the bike is not properly regulated, they'll test it and keep it if it fails.

    The article keeps mentioning "unintended consequences" but I'm not convinced these are. Trying to come across as scary (perhaps because you are yourself scared) seems to be the who…

    Ai is great. The bubble will burst. We will keep Ai just like we kept "the internet" after the dot-com bubble, but we still won't buy our pets online. I mean London has pretty good…

    Almost complete inability to sink the ball. I though I was meant to get it to stop in the spinning circle? But it is impossible to putt a short distance, it's always a couple of fe…

    He's trying to position his commercial space launch business in front of the apparently unlimited firehouse of Ai capital. "IN SPACE" is worse in every way as a compute environment…

    I know it was just a convenient pretext for a learning journey, but do not come away from this thinking llama.cpp needs to be compiled on Windows before use. The GitHib project has…

    For some context, I think this is by mr.doob of three.js fame.

    Just say I'm a sender who wants to send an email to someone on this system, and who also holds zero BTC and is justifiably deeply skeptical of anyone pushing it, exactly what steps…

    That's a fine economic statistics operation you've got there. Shame if something were to happen to it.

    Something this "shape" has been coalescencing since the first tool calls were done. To draw another Star Trek parallel, this reformulation is what Brent Spiner is during the little…

    Tldr: 5% - 17% speedup due to removing a bottleneck by juggling where on a GPU/compute core a computation is done during Flash attention.

    The numbers matter. The thermal budget a satellite is an tightly controlled thing. Large modern ones are in the order of a few to a couple of 10s of kilowatts, so something like a …

    I don't think that was the point being made by GearSkeptic, the video creator. It was a demonstration to the lay person who may not be familiar with what 5W "looked like".

    I don't think so (either by the vibe/tone of the guy portrayed in the video or from my searches.)

    Building a robot and building a robot to operate on Mars are eye-wateringly different challenges.

    I binged ST:NG before it went away again on Netflix. The more I heard from Data, the more he sounded like where Ai should be heading: Quick, thorough reasoning but followed by expl…

    Assuming no foul play, it's going to be a Points Failure, isn't it? Like Potters Bar (2002) where most of the train makes it through, but rattles/breaks some weak point that was ju…
