> 18C is awfully cold for a residence Yeah, why set the upper limit to 22 and not like 24-25? It will save you even more power for those that don't sit in your airbnb in a 3 piece business suit...

That's my impression from my job, which involves a "private, real-world"[1] codebase. You need to explicitly tell the LLM what to take into account when generating code or it will miss things. And that's with months of s

They can be trusted as much as Sony and game ownership i suppose. I still have an 1080p TV because I can't be arsed to do the research on what 4k TV won't spy on me. It helps that most "content" isn't worth 4k anywa

Game engine. Well, the hard part is making a game that people want to play...

I had to check :) I use duckduckgo mostly. They still display the domain, at least, yes. Wonder for how long.

> what you get from Godot You get continous rendering in a loop instead of updates only when something changes. It's like our laptop batteries are too big and we need to find something to deplete them.

Of course, this move is user hostile because you don't see what you're being sent to.

at 13:31 there are 11 "AI" related submissions from just the titles. Bet a good half of the others are "AI" slop.

Was it? Iirc there was always something interesting on the front page besides the blockchain. Now there are days when there's nothing besides the "AI" created "AI" spam.

Uh I have this feature I'm doing where I used a context to 600k tokens, then told Claude to make itself a summary and started a new context with it, and it's at 500k already. Mind, this is more of an exception, at least for my wor

It's at best denial of service. Except it's easily avoidable by never going back to that site again. The funny thing is the page describing the problem stutters like crazy in firefox/mac while the rotating nuclear hazard whee

That was hinted at in the summary for part 2, which i couldn't bring myself to click on. But my interpretation is still more fun!

by nottorp 5d ago
Yay, first article (for me!) that i actually click on because the title is interesting, and then it puts me off because it's LLM generated. By the way, what does Rust have to do with their problem? Is Rust simply bad at io_uring? :)

I bought a small garden twist tie roll years ago. I don't have a garden but I have boxes of cables. Probably won't run out for another 10 years.

> Their new disc to digital feature is proof they are looking at Sony's mistakes and slowly moving in the opposite direction. It basically removes the most serious thing that made physical games less convenient. Heh, isn't that

> If I buy a game on a disc, I can play the game, then resell it and someone else can play it. Or I can lend my copy of the game to a friend. Don't forget that retail is cheaper than online for consoles from day one!

Minecraft is Lego without threats to your feet because the pieces are virtual not everywhere on the floor :) And I mean the old freeform Lego, not the paint by numbers sets they're selling now.

Hah, considering the surviving B&W TVs are collector's items now, you probably can't save money by getting the cheaper license...

The "licensing" has a point because it does make the BBC more impartial since the current government cannot adjust their funding down or up depending on their programming. However, the same aim could be achieved by just setting a

Ok a price increase but: "nine streaming subscriptions". No one sane will do nine streaming subscriptions. The market is insane in itself for assuming that.

Anthropic and OpenAI will threaten you every 3-6 weeks. It's their marketing strategy. It's too bad because the tools can actually be useful. If you consider them tools.
