I'm thinking I should upgrade to a Mac Studio. The IIe really struggles to run any LLMs locally.

I have a Wallstreet Powerbook G3 and an Apple IIe. I ordered the updated cloth and will report back on compatibility issues with those old machines that aren't on the list or workarounds necessary to get the cloth to function.

true, but the other side of that trade is almost always an options market maker who will hedge their delta by trading the underlying stock. so, yes, buying a call doesn't directly represent share ownership, but it almost always result

that study was pretty thoroughly debunked. Also, I believe it was put out by a lobbying group representing auto dealerships who see the Tesla DTC model as a mortal threat. There is a lot of legitimate criticism to be directed towards Tesla

This feels like a complete BS story. Been to a bunch of festivals and concerts in the last few years and while cell phones have kind of ruined it, its because people are so caught up in filming terrible video clips of the stage they'l

I did. I really wanted to like it. I think it broke due to something I was doing with fragments or splitting up code in my monorepo. I may give it a shot again, from first principles it is a better approach.

Can you elaborate? I've used URQL and Apollo with graphql code gen for type safety and am a big fan. What about relay is so compelling for you? I'm not disagreeing, just genuinely curious since I've never really used it.

When its such for my personal edification and idle wonderings, usually the former. If its something that is any way critical to a meaningful decision or something I'm going to publicly share, its the latter.

I never understand why the rotating station concepts seem to all have rigid tethers, either in the form of a central boom or a rigid circular structure. It would seem like you could get a much larger diameter, so less rotational velocity a

There are quite a few specific procedures unique to crossing the North Atlantic. Part of it has to do with the absence of radar and VHF comms requiring HF or satellite communications which pilots will otherwise never use. I'm sure Pac

In addition to all the other evidence pointing to this being a fake, Tesla is VERY clear that they don't have dealers.

We do. And I believe that private is taxed more than commercial. Most of the FAA's funding comes from this.

Are they killing unwanted minorities and political dissidents on an industrial scale? No, they aren’t. Ergo, they aren’t N*is. Labeling them as such is unfair to them and an insult to the memory of those killed by the actual kind. There ca

nope.. its symmetrical about a bunch of axes. at most they'd need a 60 degree rotation, not 180 like USB-A. So this standard is precisely 3x better than USB-A

This may come off as a little inappropriate but one thing I think about when learning another language is the usual mistakes or quirks that native speakers of that language display when speaking English. It turns out that quite often those

Is yours open source? I'd be interested in contributing. I'm just very wary of giving closed source extensions "the keys to the kingdom" and complete access to all of my eamil.

Counterpoint - Tesla is trying to avoid a local maximum where they are able to do robotaxi's in cars with $300,000 of equipment on roads that are precisely mapped down to the centimeter. Waymo and Cruise may have beat them to "fir

I don't like Twitter's emoji. I prefer Apple's implementation. I spent about 5 minutes on this, thank you Claude. This isn't pretty at all, I know. It's not meant to showcase any kind of personal talents. Just a

Completely agree. The Expanse novels & series and Hail Mary have ruined me for fantasy-science-fiction. I love the idea of having one big conceit and then building a universe that is as consistent as possible with everything from known

Exactly. The mostly likely outcome is providers just pulling out of poorer neighborhoods or even the whole city (if forced).
