What is it with rust-staining everything? Rust is great, but abusing it with license washing and slopcoding is not :(. Why would I choose rust core utils, other than accepting less free license, which is against my interest? Have they proven to be more secure? Speed is not really enough of an advantage for me for this.

This looks to me like one of those “say you’re sentient” memes. If your prompt stresses the importance of the server enough, it will decide to save the server. The network statistically weighs the tokens of the prompt and decides yes or no based on the training data/its weights. That being said, this is not unimportant, people do and will use llms to decide a lot of things, unaware that the decisions aren’t rational, beyond rationality embedded in their training data, which you cannot know. Even the number of people on the tracks - that’s not a number to an llm, just tokens. You cannot guarantee that increasing a number would increase the significance to the decision, it may be that llm “likes” the number 20 more than 21, even though 21 is bigger.

Hate pro, but more than that - hate Snap! Switched to Mint and couldn’t be happier, it was seamless. I already only use none of Ubuntu defaults, so switching to mint and copying my dotfiles was almost as if I didn’t even do anything. On my other machine, I just uninstalled Snap, which is close, but I feel like switching to Mint entirely would be even better. I just can’t bring myself to backup everything to do a fresh install.

Wow, not even a bar/swaybar/waybar. That’s radical, alright.

And even if you can - is it worth it? I mean - do I care and should I care? Is the point of music detecting every detail of the recording or can I appreciate it without paying that much attention to production? For instance, I find it much more convenient to use Bluetooth headphones as it allows me to move around the house. Flac immediately stops being relevant, as Bluetooth codec is really bad compared to almost any codec. I recently tried ldac codec on my headphones - couldn’t really tell the difference. Mp3 128kbps is just fine for me. Almost any situation. I care about musical content much more than production details. Other people might care more. I don’t.

Yeah, but notepad++ was recently hacked and been compromised. An unfortunate timing.

BTW, Tools for Humanity is another Sam Altman startup, that also has World Coin crypto currency and wants to scan human irises for human verification. Razer was one of the first endorsers. The whole thing walks like a rugpull scam and quacks like a rugpull scam.

You can try Niri - it is a tiling, scrollable wm, a lot easier to use than i3, I’d say half way between i3 and a full de.

You’re, right, I misremembered. In my defense, lidar is a kind of radar and in this context, the point of the commenter still stands - they had hw that could improve self driving, but chose vision-only on purpose.

I’d say too fucking late. Those who have had problems have already left. And the rest can’t, for whatever reason. So walking back won’t bring those who left back. Or even if some do come back, they’ll leave on the first sign of shenanigans, cause now they know they have a choice and that it is doable.

Very strange looking BMW, but still better than giant beaver teeth it kept growing in the past. And still pretty recognizably BMW.

Tesla had lidar before, they decided to switch to vision-only control, presumably for hardware cost saving, but I read that this was musks decision ultimately, despite the pushback. The model s’s that had the hw on board simply stopped using it after an update.

Interesting experiment. But same idea as a tremolo bridge, but instead of springs in tension, he uses a magnet. An improvement could be the same - instead od directly pulling, he could try the hinge/lever setup like in a tremolo. Could also use mechanical advantage to make use of smaller magnets. An additional benefit is improved safety. But you would just reinvent the tremolo, only make it more expensive. Already, this sounds more or less like a floating style tremolo, but with additional floating. And increased price. And safety concerns.

Ah yes, everyone is the same and affects the entire world in exactly the same way. Nothing makes a difference, so why bother /s

This post only mentions that the installer works, but does the actual application work? Don’t get me wrong, the installer working is still progress.

Read it now. It made my day a bit better :)

AFAIK there is no reason why vst companies wouldn’t produce linux builds, vst has been opened for Linux for a long time now, they just need to port it. iLok should also be possible, though I personally hate it, but I’m not a pro.

I feel like - even if legit, it’s unlikely the production can scale to any meaningful level in at least 5 years. They claim they’re releasing the bike this year with the battery. This means they have a small scale production almost ready, as bikes are fairly low volume. If true, at least, we’ll see the technology.

Ooof, did not know about this. I held Louis to high regard for his work and this somewhat mars his reputation. I will from now on be cautious about Louis Rosmann, though I am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, provided he is more careful in the future. He’s always been a bit of an abrasive character, which is not always bad, but he needs to be held accountable, like everybody else.

Nice, I’ll have to give it a good look!
