I think you're on to something. It's really concerning that the people with the money to run these ad campaigns are so removed from the bulk of the populace that they don't even bother targeting them with all the billboards a

This tracks, in my experience the 27B is better at coding and instruction following. I'm shocked at how much of a difference the dense models vs MoE makes. But it's a moot point, because for local inference on consumer hardware, t

Yes, Wine was (EDIT: partially) compatible with the Roblox anti-cheat, and there was a period in time where Roblox with its anti-cheat ran on Wine. Eventually, however, a decision was made to block Wine. EDIT It looks like the Roblox anti-c

I personally liked their Code virtualizer. And it's under active development. Sorry to hear about Theia, I haven't run into it yet.

This isn't true. Roblox never had and does not have a kernel anti-cheat.

I don't think that's necessarily true. Certainly the video streaming is expensive, but other things like workers and KV store are quite cheap and performant and powerful _if you structure your access patterns accordingly_ . Cloudf

You can protect human rights without stifling progress. It's not a "pick one of the above" situation. The EU can and should reform many parts of its sclerotic laws and bureaucracies. Whether it can do so before it becomes a s

While AI isn't particularly good with obfuscated code, it is true that code obfuscation in most old games can be removed relatively easily. The attack and defense state-of-the-art has moved on from those days.

Given that 42% of Android devices are unpatched as of now [1] it's an interesting decision on their part to release their research and make them all vulnerable [1] https://gs.statcounter.com/android-version-market-share

I wonder if this is related to the pretty serious security incident about Github which got published today: https://x.com/sagitz_/status/2049153195243372569 With malicious HTTP headers, any user could access any r

That's interesting, Kimi K2.5 used through KimiCode was comparable to Sonnet in my tests, and is an excellent alternative to Anthropic models That being said, I noticed that Kimi being served through Openrouter providers was trash. Wh

Ideally you would want someone like Charles De Gaulle. The job is inherently difficult, and I think a big problem is institutional decay/drift leading to a bad pipeline of leaders, which is why you have so many poor, weak, and ineffect

I agree the US has many problems, and I really don't want to make this a EU vs USA thread. I also wouldn't say the US is "successful", whereas the EU is not. I just think the EU has amazing potential and isn't livin

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to engage in tropes, I'll be more specific. Emmanuel Macron is so unpopular that he has to forestall elections until 2029 to remain in power. In the meantime, his unpopularity means France cannot form

As an American living in Europe, I don't think the well-balanced European way of life is the cause of Europe "falling behind". Instead I think it's a combination of the following intertwined factors: bad policies, a stun

100% this. Ant was bad in many ways, but at least it was lightning fast. Gradle is just tragic.

In my tests, Qwen3.5-35B-A3B is better, there is no comparison. Better tool calling and reasoning than Qwen3-Coder-Next for Html/Js coding tasks of medium size. Beware the quants and llama.cpp settings, they matter a lot and you have

Because then they get some form of control over Anthropic. Solely through the act of using it, they claim some form of ownership over it.

Getting banned from Gemini while attempting to improve Gemini is the most Googley thing ever :D imagine letting your automated "trust and safety" systems run amok so that they ban the top 0.01% of your users with no recourse. Goog

The same as the distribution of companies which are profitable over time and grow steadily, vs the others which clumsily flail around to somehow stay alive. To the winner go the spoils, and the winners will be a tiny fraction of companies,

This is a common problem for people trying to run the GPT-oss models themselves. Reposting my comment here: GPT-oss-120B was also completely failing for me, until someone on reddit pointed out that you need to pass back in the reasoning tok
