I still cling on to the quaint idea that "upvote" means "adds meaningfully and coherently to the discussion", while "downvote" means the opposite. So not "I agree with this" or "that made me chuc

There's always been a general pushback on HN against turning threads into a series of quippy oneliners. It tends toward having a serious discussion about a topic, rather than farming low-effort humour for upvotes. I consider this a goo

An AMD AI max+ 395 - I use the one from frame.work ( https://frame.work/de/en/desktop ) with 128GB unified RAM and it can run a 120b model (gpt-oss:120b) just fine. See Wendel's review here - https:/&#x2F

It takes too long to iterate on a character design. For more explanation: I've been playing around with stable diffusion on my laptop recently; I have a gtx 4070 with 8GB dedicated VRAM so it's not nothing. The main problem I have

I use InfluxDB for this, it comes with a frontend UI and you can configure Telefraf as a statsd listener, so the same metric ingestion as datadog pretty much. There are docker containers for these, which I have added to my docker-compose fo

I work as a contractor so I move between places. I have found a few companies trying to introduce kafka, and every time it has been a solution in search of a problem. I don't doubt that it has a good use case but I have so far only enc

I don't think so. I played the original Civ on my Amiga, I love #6 but my favourite was probably #4. I'm not sure where that'd put my estimated age but likely lower than it is.

I'm not sure "I refuse to adapt or change" is a desirable trait in a new employee anyway so probably the relationship would be mutually suspicious.

Isn't the corollary that there are other companies who train up people who you can hire for a 20% raise from them? Or even just give your existing staff a pay rise once they reach a more senior level? If you can't afford to do tha

I didn't do it on purpose, but I read "You look like a thing and I love you"[0] followed by "I, Robot"[1] and that combination was really fun. The ideas Isaac Asimov put forward in I, Robot (written in the 1940&#x2F
