What do you mean? You use the 5lb tank via the Aarke instead of the CO2 cylinders? Or you refill somehow the CO2 cylinders? If it's the first one this sounds like the best of both worlds with the convenience of the countertop device an

Works like a charm for me, just like for you. Getting ~8 tok/s on my middle-of-the-road workstation laptop. Thanks for this!

Musician-turning-tech anarchist (?) Benn Jordan is making a very interesting series of videos about Flock cameras, their poor safety, and their gray-area interfacing with local governments: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UM

Mind sharing the fix as a patch? I would like to run it this way, too.

Regarding the teaching workload: This is not generalizable; during my undergraduate studies a significant fraction (maybe the majority? too long ago to be sure) of my classes were taught by graduate students, especially the math and compute

Re: the point about Zig: Especially considering I used and played a lot with D's BetterC model when I was a student, I wonder as a language designer what Walter thinks about the development and rise in popularity of Zig. Of course, thi

At the risk of sounding pedantic, you're (I think, implicitly) claiming that reducing Russian oil revenues doesn't impact their war capabilities. Why would that be the case?

Concerning how widespread DBT is: In the last five years in grad school, I knew many people doing a psychology PhD and DBT was one of the major training focuses for their clinical psychology curriculum. I would say the characterization give

I like it, but the fact that you don't have to input the whole word correctly and only each individual letter really conflicts with my muscle-memory to correct mistakes. I also think the animations and effects are a little over the t

Objective statements require some evidence. Are you referring to evidence elsewhere in the conversation or have you forgotten to include it?

Probably an obvious addendum here, but the classes I remember having the most engaging lectures were flipped style where you didn't need to take notes necessarily, because the class was about discussing and deepening the understandin

I don't know but if you want to find out a good place to look is Luke Ranieri's Polymathy/ScorpioMartianus channels. He engages very actively with the Ancient Greek and Latin languages and his content is also useful for disco

It's funny to hear someone describe my daily driver personal laptop in the same way as a 380Z. I use Slackware with Xfce4 and except for the lower screen resolution (1360x768) I have never noticed that it's not "modern."

Unless I misread they don't state exactly how the attack escalates privileges to install the driver. Could there be two versions of the attack with varying levels of severity?

This is very cool and very useful as a commuting cyclist. The routes that OSM and Google give me don't always have a high "reasonability" score in that they may be the most direct routes, but the road conditions are very unco

The use of LD_PRELOAD as part of the attack surface makes me think that a statically-linked binary has some value. Not a maximalist approach like some experimental distros, but I think there's clearly some value in your standard userla

This is presently how my website works. I'm no webdev so I'm probably committing all sorts of heresies, though. I use m4 macros to build the header/footer structure with links and coloring and whatnot. Then the content pages

I think this is a key point to catch in this discussion. Like a sibling comment said, this is the way things are done in his EU country, but the big difference is that EU countries are higher-trust with way more financial regulation and a

For the record it is not correct that NixOS's choice to store language packages in its own repos is unique: Slackware does this and IIRC Ubuntu and Debian both do this. In fact, this is so common that I occasionally see warnings on p

There are a few ways of comparing these numbers. I think you're suggesting that something like deaths/kWh is a better metric, which I agree with; if we just go with total deaths than something like pedal-driven generators are the

I did an internship at Sandia this past summer, specifically on the HPC programs. Being a PhD student, the pay for that internship was excellent, and the cost of living in ABQ is low. I lived somewhere that I could bike to my office. My man

Echoing a sibling comment, it seems strange it's so common that people look at probabilities like this and say that because the thing that happened was less likely that the model was wrong. They say explicitly how this works: they run

I have read the paper. They showed photosensitivity by both autoclaving the sample and adding DMCU to prevent photosynthesis. Both reduced power production. They do suggest a component of power production is related to electrolytic activity

It sounds like they are making the claim that they can revoke access to data immediately, but they say you don't need to store the content on-device. I looked up "key displacement" and can't find any immediate references
