Maybe someone should suggest, sudo needs compression capabilities and suggest a great developer, being helpful with that one? :D

That's something i wonder as well. AI needs data to be usable. But what if all the data it gets is just generated by AI?

The “largest ever investment” remark felt less like confidence and more like a “nothing to see here, move along” PR reflex.

How about uploading them on mega, dropbox, mediafire or some quickly done wix page? :D

Well, one company is doing already that. It's Valve and their ongoing work on proton, steam deck (which runs on linux) and much more in that space.

Funny how the title alone evokes the old “real programmers” trope https://xkcd.com/378/

The policy isn’t about whether those tools raise good points. It’s about not letting agents act autonomously in project spaces. Human reviewed, opt in use is explicitly allowed.

Additionally, it comes across as pretty hostile toward new contributors, which isn’t the intent of the article at all.

Maybe not targeted specifically at this project, but… can we please stop turning everything into a business idea? It’s something I’ve been noticing more and more over the last few years: everything gets turned into some kind of monetization

Oh wow. That something like this is necessary is kind of sad. At first (while reading the title), I thought they just didn’t want AI-generated contributions at all (which would be understandable as well). But all they are actually asking fo

It would be interesting to know whether such warnings also apply when the suspected spyware is attributed to a user’s own government.

The problem with calling it “full stack” (even if it has a widely understood meaning) is that it implicitly puts the people doing the actual lower-level work on a pedestal. It creates the impression that if this is already “full stack,” the

I really wonder when the point will be reached at which the South Korean government steps in and starts to take a closer look at the growing long-term supply commitments that companies like OpenAI are indirectly driving with major memory ma

To be honest, it starts to look more and more like a single company (we all know which one), is just buying up all DRAM capacities to keep others out of the (AI) game.
17.
by SunlitCat 9mo ago
Not quite. Making specialized DRAM chips for AI hardware needs, requires high tech components. Making low(er) end DRAM chips for consumer needs might be easier to get started with. I am pretty sure, in the next year we will see a wave of lo

Hi lewq, commentator of your post here. Yeah, I used ChatGPT to help me write this answer ;) (Unlike JPEGs, it works at the right abstraction level for text.) I think the core issue isn’t push vs pull or frame scheduling, but why you’re sen

I’m generally skeptical of Windows optimization tools because they tend to change a lot of low-level settings and make troubleshooting harder later on. When someone already has a broken system, it’s often difficult to figure out what’s wron

I don’t mean to sound dismissive, your frustration is completely understandable. That said, this does follow a very old and well-documented pattern: build a consumer image generation tool, and a significant portion of users will try to push

The problem with DX12/Vulkan isn’t just that “low-level control is hard”, it’s that a lot of performance-critical decisions are now exposed at a level where they’re extremely GPU- and generation-specific. The same synchronization strat

When will EU6 release be? :D

This article already feels like it’s on the right track. DirectX 11 was perfectly fine, and DirectX 12 is great if you really want total control over the hardware but I even remember some IHV saying that this level of control isn’t always a

Sadly, you get sometimes forced that "smart stuff" if you want it or not. Had to order large tv sets at work, got LG ones. Working mostly fine as dumb displays (for some connected device, delivering the pictures and using HDMI ARC

It would be fitting for a company, or rather, a former nonprofit organization, that builds on empty promises.

Don’t forget that many of these manufacturers operate with long-term supply contracts for components like RAM, maintain existing inventory, or are selling systems that were produced some time ago. That helps explain why we are still seeing

That's a trend I've noticed as well over the past few years. It somehow feels like it's becoming increasingly “important” to make money from whatever you do on the internet. The idea that you can just create things because yo

That’s true, tho! But I still remember the uproar in various communities about Samsung’s decision not to release what was, at the time, the only premium-tier WMR headset, with higher resolution and refresh rate, a wider FOV, mechanical IPD

And additionally, Samsung never released their Odyssey VR (or it's successor) worldwide, which in my opinion was the reason WMR failed as it was the best of the WMR headsets at the time of their release (of course the HP Reverb was bet
