Well, foo. My comment about President Facade torpedoed before it set sail.

Pardon the dumb question. How do you get Claude to run locally? And control hardware? The Claude I use at work is only accessible via web page and runs on an Nvidia DGX H200.

It looks like he's using my beloved Northgate keyboard.

Can infrared energy be reflected like light? What would a good reflector be? (THEORETICALLY) Would a parabolic dish over this facility be able to focus the heat to a single point and, if so, what would the temp be? Is it additive? Like X jo

I'm sorry, this article reads like something a low-level HR drone was ordered to write with the help of AI. "Come up with an excuse we can feed to the board of directors about why we fired all the high-paid productive SMEs, lost o

I'm a little vague on how this works. So the "bad guys" have loads of SIM cards installed into machines that can make calls or send SMS text messages, right? Doesn't each SIM card require an account with a cell phone pr

Elected representatives frequently introduce bills that have no chance of passing or being considered. This proposed legislation is only to gain points with the electorate: "I introduced a bill to ban/promote XYZ but it was kille

The ban as you described it is pretty specific. Would it be ok for someone to spray chemicals and metals for other reasons and not to induce rain by cloud-seeding? Crop-dusting might fall under this category. And what exactly are "na

I misread this as "On loyalty to your emperor". As it turn out I ain't got that either.

I hope this isn't true. I'm very upset reading this.

Do any talking cats live or have their offices there?

Indeed. I am finding it hard to fire up some reason for conker beyond "it's yet another British drinking game". Perhaps because the name sounds like Conquer, as in William, The.

Agreed. Tech companies with patents might be more interested in licensing their technology to others for a fee.

That payout to Cloudflare seems really, really low, considering the claims postulated by sable ip. I think $225M would be a more convincing way of de-incentivizing patent trolls.

I can't wait to hear Warren Buffet answering a question about company automation at the next annual convention : "We just started using the Brainfuck software...". The silver-haired grannies in attendance will love that.

I'm thinking 16, as in Volkswagon W16, part harmony on the Queen song.

Apparently organic chemists speak a different kind of English.

Garbage in. Garbage out. It's useless unless it can provide a functional mathematical proof of correctness or, at the least, provide a process by with it's fictional composition can be proven or disproven.

Mine reminds me of the high-pitched sound made by old, tube TVs. I think it was called the flyback transformer. 16Khz.

How do I control the octave of the note I select?

How about transplanting some badgers or wolverines? Yea. Into Manhattan. Just an idea.

I didn't understand what this was from the title, but as soon as I read the explanation I felt like the authors had been studying me. I don't need to explain or rationalize what I'm doing here -- I am doing it, consciously,

This, if true, is fascinating and more than a little scary. I'm imagining a situation where someone can somehow send the apoptosis signal to every cell in my body.

"neurodivergent" sounds like a sexy sci-fi movie title. If you ask my previous employers they'd have a different description, like "Hard to manage. Too frequently off in the weeds. Wouldn't know a real priority i

I thought I heard that once the helium is gone, it's gone. We can't make it; we can't pump any more out of the ground. That would seem to be a hard-stop. Is that really the kind of resource we want to turn over to capitali
