For me 2022 was the year of learning C++ (background in C# and Php) and I must say that after being intimidated by the language (extensive use of pointers, stack/heap compile/run time allocation and deallocation, templates) for ye

Elon is Elon. If he was too interested in other people's opinions, he wouldn't be where he is. That applies basically to all successful CEOs. Nonetheless he currently has a Teitter poll up if he should step down as a head of Twitt

Because to be criminally liable for something requires both a) actually doing something that is against the law and b) doing so with intent (i.e. you knew what you're doing is against the law and you did it anyway... because you though

> Yes of course they need to know the law. Anyone who might potentially break the law during the course of their work needs to know what that law is. Complete nonsense. This is criminal law. Google "Mens rea".

It's the classic HN scraping butthurt. You can only do this if you're a billion (trillion?) dollar company and you do it behind closed doors. All these concern trolls are bad actors. All of them. Unless you literally steal someone

Jesus, the Apple fanboys truly are a different breed. E2E encrypted backups are nice, great even, but the rest of your post and especially the last paragraph are cringe worthy.

This is a problem that needs to be addressed. Needless suffering is always bad. But. Is this really a BIG problem or are the politics (of Elon being who he is) leaking again? This is not about some social networking platform or a car compan

Not to be THAT guy, but Physx is basically reaching EOL. I'm sure a few mid sized studios who want to roll their own engine can still take advantage of the core, but with UE5 completely replacing Physx with Chaos and the "ballast&

One look at r/worldnews or r/news? Those are not even some obscure subreddits. It's a community ruled by progressives, posted into by progressives and mostly read by progressives. The content reflects that. This has been achi

Just did a thousand images (different seeds for the same prompt) with the base (not fork) model at 50 iterations in a couple of hours (RTX 3080). Gpu vram usage seemed to hover around 9 gigs. This model is pretty damn fast for what it does.
