1. Integration tests are a pain to setup, not anymore! Also, code reviews before PRs. 2. AI doing production triage work 3. AI code reviews before submittng work to my team to review. 4. The workers that haven't embraced AI assistance

I think there's no interactive git branch because git uses work trees as an opinionated choice, which means this was kind of redundant before AI anyway...

They've so far ignored the ticket https://github.com/google/artemis/issues/40 to potentially avoid the Streisand Effect (drawing attention to it), yet started work fixing it. That reads like a coverup as

I don't understand how this can be sovereign and GPSR compliant when it uses non EU sovereign AI hosted outside of the EU. Have I missed the trick?

So we've gone full circle again? I suppose write once run anywhere is no longer a goal either. "It is not a goal to support all CPU architectures currently supported by HotSpot." This pretty much validates the point of view t

Definitely not. It has to be Doom or Crysis, aren't they the ones people usually ask if it can run?

I'm not sure why this has been voted down, it's a counterpoint to the hype with factual anecdotes to back up the claim of it's performance Vs the article itself. I've got the source and video to prove it too.

That's exactly the kind of behaviour I've seen, unbelievable amount of unit tests, and revisiting and revising the same code over and over again. If I was cynical, I'd say almost like it was deliberately trying to burn quota,

For the last 2 days I've been trying to create a skill for Openclaw that would allow traditional control of the Adeept Tank's robot arm (a small open source toy tank that looks like a bomb disposal robot). ASTRA HAS BEEN UTTER SHI

Somebody will make a lot of money with t-shirts now that say "AI hacked my website, and all I got was this lousy t-shirt!" Until the day the AI companies stop being irresponsible and air gap the AIs being tested, and honey pot tho

Not directly related to K2, but why do a lot of the newly released models basically say day zero day support in vllm, slang but often not llama.cpp? Llama.cpp is then often a few days behind, which given it's the only inference engine

If they're going to treat copyright works like a public good, then the product they produce should also be a public good to prevent the "free-rider" problem. --- The free rider problem is also a form of market failure... The

Bit of both. It uses the GPL low-level sm750 chip/DDK code from Linux’s old sm750fb driver, but it's not just that framebuffer driver updated. The DRM/KMS architecture, board specific SiI9024 HDMI support, modes, DMA updates,

You can also pipe it through zstd on the fly, for data that compresses well you'll often see 1.5 to 3× the raw throughput, so a gigabit link can effectively move 165–330MB/s. Receiver: socat -u TCP6-LISTEN:1234,reuseaddr STDOUT |

Initially I just needed a driver for the device. tldr; had Qwen orchestrate, do admin and assist with investigations, builds and debugging when codex was unavailable. Codex had a dedicated test physical machine, and I promoted the driver it

I guess this is trolling, but I've never claimed credit for the traditional coding part. The unique bits I did do - Checked the specs for actual hardware limits, DMA and any acceleration - A magic dither based on my previous (normally

Yes. Stupid comment of mine tbh, I saw it as pointless for this card, but they wouldn't make a separate version of the controller just for this One avenue I looked at for a real 2560px width was that the second controller was physicall

I've never tried it, I am put off by the amount of work for a few weekends on what I considered a personal project, plus I don't understand the code base well enough (problem domain is ok, I grew up with 8 and 16 Bit machines, and

Funny you should say that On the same machine I experimented with IOMMU and a lightweight VM to run Nvidia Pascal era GPUs in a VM with 580 drivers, while Nvidia Blackwell on the host uses 590. I vibe coded that too When exposed via openai

It is just an old school 2D style card, with some (shape) primitives acceleration (unused), two logical controllers (no idea why), but has DMA (used) and a hardware cursor (also used). There's no onboard audio either. It's pretty

Ah you mean this https://www.pcworld.com/article/393815/the-asrock-rack-m2-vg... That one is VGA so I think the original upstream driver should support it.

by SillyUsername 17d ago
I agree but these things are only about $25 USD. Arguably an older Nvidia GPU is a better investment at this price if you just want basic desktop use. Unfortunately if I did that, the old Nvidia drivers wouldn't support my newer Nvidi

Possibly, but in order to be safe for everyone, reviewers may want me to remove features that allow the driver to achieve the non-standard performance. There's a lot of hoops to jump through :)

I wrote* a modern Linux driver that supports ultrawide resolutions, higher refresh, and faster performance than the original driver(s) on this cheap HDMI only variant server GPU. I created it because I wanted my Nvidia GPUs to be compute on
