   I read that book earlier this year and really enjoyed reading it. The audiobook was also spoken by the author.

   I don't know what you consider to be safe, but I assume you're talking about privacy and data retention. You can pay someone like Ollama, which is US-based, which runs those models in their cloud. You can also download many/m

   Same. I left a really good job for a year, to go work for a company CEO'd by a buddy of mine. I had a bad, sinking feeling in my gut from the very beginning when In interviewed with my new boss (not my buddy). Sure enough, I fucking ha

   I remember having this interview with an HR person several years ago (like in the early 2010s) where she asked me all these vague, difficult to answer questions. None of them were technical, and I can't remember a single one of them no

   I can confirm this. Our Model 3 doesn't charge as fast using a NEMA 14-50 plug connected via the Tesla-provided mobile charger. When we moved to a new house, we bought a Tesla wall charger, and it indeed charges at higher amps, but I d

    Since when was there ever a plan to disable IPv4 on the Internet? Just because IPv6 is around doesn't mean that IPv4 is going to go away.

    BatMUD is the one I played a long time ago, and has been around for 35 years now. I honestly don't know how active it is these days. https://www.bat.org

    During the Summer of 1997, I stayed at my university and had a job at the computer lab in the basement of the library. We had four Windows 95 PCs, four Mac Quadras, and then tons of VT terminals. I specifically remember the one at the lab a

    I've owned a Model 3 for years now, and FSD is scary as hell. We haven't paid for it -- and we won't -- but every time we get a free trial of it (mostly recently this past Fall), I give it a whirl, and I end up turning it off
