I understand why they did it - medical emergencies and all. Have to pay the bill somehow. But yea, 0.47.05's still my go-to. Just can't vibe with the new UI/keybinds. Old controls were on their roadmap for a long time, but th

"It takes a ton of pressure to make a diamond". I read that in a game when I was a kid and took it as a guiding principle in my life. Overcoming hard times absolutely made me a better person, but as I've grown I've seen

I'm trying to break anti-cheat protection in order to mod my own (single-player) game and Opus refuses to help. I don't really care if GLM's dumber at this point if Anthopic's going to be a non-option. At work, layoffs c

I suspect a lot of people don't mind/care that the list is expanded to those groups. That's really a big part of the issue. It's better framing, regardless though.

Similar experience here, however my feeling is that this isn't necessarily a bad thing. Garbage being made is indicative of a gap in the currently-available tools. User research should shift towards analyzing these prototypes and enhan

This was one of the first ideas me and my team had for sharing skills and scripts. The problem is this is a very "why Dropbox and not FTP" answer. The second you utter the word git, you may have lost 90% of your audience - dependi

My mental model for MCPs is that it's like a Swagger/OpenAPI spec for LLMs. Point 2 doesn't make much sense in that context as it's describing MCP as a Swagger endpoint that's unstable. Chrome/Ghidra MCP does h

Of course they do. Generally the end result from this is bad - reduced in scope, buggy, and/or unstable. But that's an issue with communication/expectations/management. It'll keep happening either because of politic

It depends on the management. Mine asks that, but others within my company get "this is going to be done by [DATE]".

From what I understand, that's a problem with the way it receives data. The model doesn't see the letters g,o,o,g,l,e to count it. Just like how I can't sense radio waves. If I wanted to find that out, I'd get a tool to

I suppose it depends how hands-off the tasks are - I max out at 2 parallel sessions working on different parts and it's fairly exhausting once done. I can see the number of parallel work increasing if there's a good dev/test

AMD and any other corpo is made of people, who do have emotions. Abuse towards these people impacts corp operations. This is an entity protecting itself from damage that it feels is not worth the benefit the offering would bring. And I ques

I'm not well versed at reverse engineering binaries or interpreting C/assembly so ghidra MCP has been an absolute gamechanger for helping me write tools. Once my project is complete, I plan to learn how to do the analysis myself m

You have abstractions and models for those things. I was formally trained as an EE, so I'm just guessing at how structural engineers do it. I would expect someone building a bridge to keep the average/peak winds into consideration

I suggest you keep going with that math. I'll use the numbers from here [0]. 924 billionaires with an overall wealth of 7.5 trillion. Split among 300 million people, that's about $25k for everyone. Here are some points of consider

From my understanding, it's generally for health purposes (though the convenience doesn't hurt). An example my vet provided is that the level of sodium consumption needed by humans is way too high for dogs.

Haaa. Confirmed. Went from 200-400ms (worse than I remembered) down to sub 30ms of jitter after putting on a stream. Thanks for the pointer

Very interesting. I play RS3 and made a helper tool[0] for tracking ticks. I noticed increased jitter on my MBair (~50-150ms) compared to Windows, but I chalked it up to the air being on a wifi connection. I wonder if your explanation'

Framed this way, it's useful for saving time creating or finding those snippets at least.

I'd think the usual trusted sources for an authentic one - digikey, mouser, sparkfun. Amazon, ebay, and similar others for the (cheaper) counterfeits.
