Or, just don't use JSON for config files. There are plenty of human-friendly config file options, so there is no reason to frankenstein JSON in this way.

I rebuild these things. I know the market.

Because the energy of a photon is a function of its frequency.

DX7s don't go for a high price. The market is flooded with them. If you pay more than $600, you paid too much. You can easily find one in the $400 range.

This is strangely written. NL is not a character. It is an operation. Every time he writes "NL character" he means an LF, i.e. 0x0A. The NL operation is defined differently for different OSs. Yes, CRLF is a relic of the teletype,

So that's what I missed at the keynote.

I use Z-Wave for everything. I looked into Home Assistant, but went with a Hubitat C8 Pro hub bridged to HomeKit on my Apple TV. A Z-wave multi-relay and tilt sensor kit is under $100, and just works. Home Assistant is more flexible, and ha

Why are enterprise SANs so good at dedupe, but filesystems so bad? We use HPE Nimble (yeah, they changed the name recently but I can't be bothered to remember it), and the space savings are insane for the large filesystems we work with

No. This is just wrong and fails to understand not just how transformers work but the conceptual mapping that results from their training. All these arguments about whether or not LLMs think are missing the point. They do not “think” as hum

Actual article title: Benchmarking Qualcomm's NPU on the Microsoft Surface Tablet Because this isn't about NPUs. It's about a specific NPU, on a specific benchmark, with a specific set of libraries and frameworks. So basicall

These are the same people that convinced 3rd-world mothers to feed their babies freely provided formula until their breast milk dried up, and then the formula ran out, and they could not afford more, and their babies starved to death.

That pretty much describes all the social sciences. A morass of non-reproducibility, lack of controls, cherry picked data, bias, and subjective conclusions.

Neal Stephenson predicted this in Anathem.

Sorry. That was a major brain fart. Yes. 8-bit quantization, and using 49G of RAM.

No quantization (8_0). The full 48GB model. As for token count, I haven't tested it on more than 200 or so.

I'm running it on an M2 Max with 96GB, and have plenty of room to spare. And it's fast. Faster than I can get responses from ChatGPT.

Audacity, despite its weaknesses compared to commercial tools, still excels at batch processing due to its Nyquist plugin suite. The macro tool is finicky, but you can still do things that nothing else can in a batch, like trimming leading

In other words, just like VSTs on Bitwig. Even if the entire audio engine crashes, you just restart it with a click.

by teilo 3y ago
Why would they want to support AU? The only reason to use AU is Logic. Everything else (Protools excepted) supports VST, and all the plugin devs release in VST and AU, so it would be a waste of time. Bitwig is putting their time into CLAP,

JetBrains Mono has been nerdified, in four varieties, for a long time, and is already there. I use it with oh-my-posh. There are non-ligature and non-monospace (for icons only - everything else is monospace) versions.

Ignore the sour grapes. Yes, Docker is constantly evolving. But the title does say "in 2023." I, for one, need tutorials like this, and I am grateful for it. Devs who have been using Docker for a while have forgotten how intimid

Yes, we care about flavors of Linux in the enterprise. RHEL is an industry standard distribution that nearly all vendors support. We have a significant amount of commercial software that is only supported on RHEL or its derivates. Not run

Yes, it turned out to be wrong, but not for the reason you cite. Dawkins completeliy dismisses the critical role of mutational fixation of epigenetic gene expression. He admits it exists, but dismisses its relevance in speciation.

RISC-V may become the open source ARM, or it may be a complete bust. At this point, either could happen. As it is now, there are only a few hardware implementations and all of them are dog slow compared to ARM.

And you think it will stay that way? It won't. This is just the start. Next, they will ban private servers and raid those who do not comply.

I agree that this is clickbait, but then I come from a family that just doesn't think this way. I've been through this twice now, for both my parents. They died at home. Not in a rented apartment. At home. We, their children and g

Age also has a big effect on serum levels. When you are mid-40s+, you cannot absorb D3 as well, and it takes a significantly higher dose to get your serum levels up. This is why testing is important. It is also important to take K2 when you

I use Privacy.com, which basically turns every card I use with them into a canary. The first time you charge on one of their virtual cards, they become merchant-locked. No other merchant can charge to that number, and if someone tries, I ge
