I usually just get them from IKEA. They have different sizes from 0.4l to 6l. I try not to overfill them if possible, much easier to see what's inside.

Transparent ziplock bags changed my cable organization significantly. I also put a lot of accessories into them. Preferably together with a small note about what it is for, or with the manual of the device it belongs to. Storing stuff in in

It's inline CSS, but with all the limitations of inline styles removed. There is a lot of stuff that can't be done with inline styles, like media queries.

Because you still need a good sales and product team. Speak with potential customers, understand their problems. Building the software was never the hard part.

This is becoming more and more of a problem. For a small software company it could become an asset. Tell customers they are privately owned and small, and therefore won't be acquired by VCs. Traditionally big vendors were more trustwor

I think tech founders need to think smaller. Build software for a few thousand people and make a profit from it. Something niche. Something that is sustainable with a small team. VC eats up everything that's becoming bigger. And they w

Are there modern positioning systems that can automatically join all those data sources into one position? Traditionally navaids are treated as completely separate sources and are shown on different kind of instruments. But they could also

The "cut and die" part is happening rather quickly, and you're done with it. But you might be hungry for weeks and have to watch your crops grow. Probably really boring and uncomfortable.

It's actually not that hard to return to this lifestyle. Maybe easier than ever before. Just buy an old farm somewhere in the middle of nowhere and do your thing. There are many regions in the world where farmland is really cheap and n

This regulation is utterly broken. The only way for a small business is to ignore it completely and hope for the best.

Interesting idea. Modern media and social media is probably really the most relevant change we had in the last 15 years. Everything else didn't change that much.

The LLM passes my test if it calls out the ambiguity or just goes with it and responds with a 3-crossings solution. It passes if it doesn't just plainly ignore this one sentence. It's such a strong test in my opinion, because all

Here in Europe employees turn off their company devices after work. Getting called-in in your time off usually happens not more than once every few months. You're not supposed to check your messages in your time off. But it still feels

I have the feeling this goes much deeper than knowledge work and AI. I see it in many places that people seem to not take their job serious anymore. The incentive seems to be gone. Also their managers don't seem to care anymore, as the

It would be quite ironic if this technology would render all those AI data centers practically useless. If the next step are just a much smaller amount of expensive chips, and the bottleneck becomes manufacturing those chips fast. Not buil

With thousands of token per second output it would be an enormous waste of resources. Such chips are clearly made to process thousands of conversations simultaneously. Not necessarily in parallel. All LLM workflows are turn based right now,

It failed on my usual test. But it failed really fast: "A farmer has a wolf, a goat, and a cabbage. The wolf is imaginary and doesn't exist. He wants to cross the river, but the boat is only big enough to hold him and one of them.

I think motorsports is going to fade away over time. Especially in car racing the technology got so advanced, that it's starting to get more and more boring. If/When self driving cars become widely available, it might start to fee

This doesn't look like it can control the AC unit via infrared. How did you solve that part?

OT: I'm looking for some way to control my AC via Infrared. I have a few pretty standard AC units with IR remotes. The ones with a display on it, that just transmit all the settings on the remote via IR on every button press. Some devi

At some point the "money people" are going to stop setting huge piles of money on fire. Big tech can finance a lot of AI investments themselves, but they can't keep up the current investments just by themselves, without compr

Actions are much more interesting than words. If the CCP didn't want Kimi K3 weights to be published, they would stay secret. Period.

China doesn't seem to think that powerful open weight models are a serious threat to them. Otherwise they wouldn't release them. Those models could also be used by their enemies against China. I'm not a fan of the Chinese pol

Congress? Who cares about congress anymore? The president declares it a national security risk. Done.

Just declare it illegal (national security risks). Treat it like sexual abuse material, scan cloud services for copies, and jail everyone who has them.
