question to clarify: If the LLM designs the circuit, it is clear "contamination" if the tool calls which wrote the RTL / Verilog are also in the same context window as the specification design. If a windows DLL, distributed w

Accessibility is important, and I find that "Reader Mode" in most browsers is quite good. Everyone should have access to the tools to consume content. Did your browser not provide that functionality?

When I was a vision engineer at a previous role back in 2022-ish, laptop-class Intel chips used in their SFF NUCs were powerful enough to run small finetuned convolutional nets by dancing across the different on the package: first decode us

My deepest conflict with Python as someone who works with it professionally is balancing "keep it simple and clean" with an acknowledgement that reality is often is complex and messy. Synchronous, mostly functional python scripts

I was asking around a while ago about better single-node solutions to "durable workflows" than Airflow before I was familiar with the terminology. Admittedly, Go + durable workflows in the cloud feels like the perfect marriage. Se

Google has muddied the waters on their Gemini usage statistics as it now powers a big chunk of Search. Depending on how you cut it, Gemini (and Gemini powered products) are probably producing the most output tokens seen by the most human ey

Author here: A lot of my professional C++ experience comes from the computer vision space where I am specifically linking against FFmpeg (libav does its own share of memory management tricks that don't always play well with RAII). I th

A very specific shortcoming of this implementation is indeed "Day of Month" and "Month of Year" aren't given their own types! The type specification should likely be applied all the way down! I felt the examples c

Author here. The post didn't get much traffic when I uploaded so I didn't engage much with the thread. Looks like I should've come back! I specifically wrote that by hand to note the specific shortcomings of this approach whe

Admittedly probably some aggrandized boasting here, but I think empirical verification of that Adam modification alone would be a meaningful contribution, unless that's prior work?

I wish computer mice did this. I know multiple people whom are quite attached to 10+ year old mice that haven't been manufactured for quite some time, and would like to keep the familiar shape and design.

Serious FreeBSD question: I like a lot of what FreeBSD promises, but have been hesitant to make the leap for my home server as I enjoy hosting game servers via steamcmd. I know FreeBSD has Linux binary compatibility, but I am unsure how thi

I would love to host an ultra high quality stream on my own web server, and then have that exact stream piped to YouTube live via OBS. Is there an easy way to do that now? YouTube likely won't support streaming 3440x1440 60FPS video, a

I think if AI can help us modernize the current state of hardware verification, I think that would be an enormous boon to the tech industry. Server class CPUs and GPUs are littered with side channels which are very difficult to “close”, eve
