>If everybody improves their looks, the net effect will be zero. I'm not sure that's true. I think there's a baseline issue here. Regardless, even if it netted out to zero, you'd e…

Maybe with vfio/igb_uio/uio_pci_generic? Still root level access.

Can this be patched? Is there a chance it's a hw watchdog that you can't fix in microcode?

But humans have used AI with ingenuity.

How much has section 199A encouraged this?

It's funny, because LLMs have context switching costs too! Cached tokens cost less than non-cached. There's no reason to think that doesn't apply to humans.

Unless and until desktop OSes make typing symbols not on the keyboard as easy as iOS or Android, I can't be bothered.

Seems like t is a very critical variable then. For example, you could imagine a particular market is "perfectly" efficient at the moment (however you want to define the boundaries …

The actual paper's title is "Markets are competitive if and only if P != NP" Seems that HN's auto-headline rewriting in this case has made a critical error :) >Artificial intellige…

The world is not zero sum. Value is created, not just preserved. Anthropic and OpenAI creating value does not imply that smaller guys can not also create value.

The MacBook Neo (at least pre announcement) was a better value than anything else, including a chromebook.

Approximately everyone (at least in the F500) outside of Big Tech uses them. For example, Costco's entire inventory management system runs on IBM i (so, POWER). You can see the cla…

Europeans being so scared of debt is so funny. Just pay off your card every month. The liability model is completely different in the US from Europe w.r.t. merchant vs bank. The in…

What does an open source dev get out of their work at all? Satisfaction? For the "traditional" open source model of give away the software and sell the support, s390x customers cou…

You can hit 10 gig aggregate on an A57 quite easily, given standard memory bandwidth (I've done it). They must be doing something stupid on the software side, like too many copies.…

This is the difference between the people on this site broadly and everyone else broadly.

I gotta say this is the kind of stuff that LLMs make trivial to answer these days.

IIRC it's code :( Very silly IMO.

Doing the cabling job was a weekend long project for me, I just never want to have to do that again (yes yes I should have run conduit and pull strings, but single mode just means …

I think this is the first time one of my comments has ever gotten mentioned in a subsequent post, so that's cool :) Glad it was helpful and not me being an idiot. That's a shame ab…

I'd guess that the mediatek blobs are exactly 64k, and mostly 0s?

It was on my machine at least, I remember I had to do an additional install to activate that tab...

No remotely western company will risk US sanctions violations or whatever other regulatory burden by using US technology where it can't be used. Even Chinese companies depending on…

Do you really think the EU wants to sign up for PR that’s essentially “the US is being too mean to Russia” right now?

The RISC-V move was laughable. It’s still US tech, developed largely with DARPA funds.
