Just because scales are grouped by 128x128 tiles, does not mean you need a single compute tile that large. It works completely fine to process it with multiple smaller tiles that get given the same scales, like how this works on Hopper and

Wait, since when does it matter whether something being hyper-optimized is useful? The computer going brrrr on an interesting problem is in itself the goal!

It's not for slower devices, it's for lower data transfer bills for providers like YouTube.

This is implemented the wrong way around. Each program should only have access to its own folders by default, with it being possible to grant additional access. Also, I don't believe Endpoint stuff is included in the normal Windows lic

Sandboxie is essentially a giant pile of fragile hacks on top of a Windows API that does not want to be used this way. Does it seem like it works most of the time? Sure. Has it had bypasses? Also yes. I've used it in the past but I don

Can you configure that as a user for an unsafe program you want to run such as an online game? I think not.

Microsoft has refused to allow any kind of persistence of these sandboxes making them absolutely worthless. Such a waste of an otherwise good feature.

Sadly, Windows cannot do that. Every installed program has full disk access by default. It's very, very difficult to make it not so.

There need to be better instructions that you have to open the web page on your computer first, opening the link on the phone directly appears useless as it just displays a qr code on the phone.

Bruh. It's getting hard to track down all these MAKE_IT_ACTUALLY_WORK settings that default to off for no reason.

I didn't know we could change the base system prompt of Claude Code. Just tried, and indeed it works. This changes everything! Thank you for posting this!

But you can't. Many times I've seen claude write confusing off-track nonsense in the thinking and then do the correct action anyway as if that never happened. It doesn't work the way we want it to.

Many people are not salaried and can roughly convert more working hours into proportionally more money, so the comparison does kinda make sense. Why uselessly stand in line for an hour when you could use that hour to make more deliveries, d

Thinking that you are operating in the UK because a UK user can theoretically send packets to you, is similar to thinking a corner store in Japan is operating in the UK because a brit can theoretically get on a plane and fly there to shop.

> At Apple Pay, we processed millions of daily transactions across 30,000 servers Why does it require 30,000 servers to process millions of daily transactions? Is there a typo in the amount?

> Meanwhile, Samsung's own recycling numbers tell a different story. Its old phone collection campaign, running since 2015, had collected just 38,000 phones as of May 2019. Samsung had sold 2 billion Galaxy devices by February 2019.

It can. The fact there is a password, even if you can trivially find said password, is considered a protection. The German law is completely absurd here.

True, though even before this we just made a chatting topic with the name "general", that worked just fine while still letting people make other threads for long discussions.

You can just not specify a topic and write your messages in "general chat", nothing stops you from doing this.

I tried casually using it for two hours and it burned $100 at the current 50% discounted rate, so your guess is pretty accurate...

This pricing is pathetic. I've been using it for two hours at what I consider "normal" interactive speed and it burned $100. Normally the $200 subscription is enough for an entire month. I guess if you are rich, you can pay 4
