The value to Google - sure. But the market value of the exploit itself - the black market I think is a factor in that regardless of what Google offers. The value of something is dictated by what _the market_ offers, and just because Google

I feel like there’s parallels to be made for everything that has potential upside without clarity into the “downsides” unless you yourself get into them. Now when AI can “do everything”, everyone* (exaggeration) wants the potential upside o

No, that I think would be Match.com or something along those lines. This is like the grandfather or grand-grandfather of Tinder, but not even intentionally. What I find funny is how an Estonian proverb/saying would fit here quite nicel

What might the “parameters/layers to gates” ratio look like? My naive and uninformed guess would be that 1B+ parameter would also need a 1B+ gate FPGA, but according to google they typically range from tens of thousands to several mill

That’s the thing - his side quests have nothing to do with weed (aside from him occasionally mixing it in) - Twitch streaming, a cooking show with Martha Steward, a kids songs and nursery rhymes channel (Doggyland), and so much more. And th

Yeah, that seems to be the general pattern across vi-emulation. However, back when I was on IntellJ stuff (pre vi-emulation), I was already quite deep into the plethora of keyboard shortcuts within IntelliJ, so although you couldn’t do ever

IntelliJ actually does (did) have quite solid vim emulation, at least from my experience of using it before going full into neovim (now on Emacs, btw)

I love how the closer we get to “the edge of the Reality”, the more it sounds like the ramblings of someone that got their hands on some of that GOOD stuff

Didn’t the primary maintainer already signal burnout or frustration or something like that? If an AI company actually did port ffmpeg *successfully* (not like claude CC), the dude might get the release he might have been yearning for

I switched to Emacs. Whatever AI did to TreeSitter caused it to constantly yell at me about errors because of markdown which I do not have the energy to figure out, while losing syntax highlighting and formatting support entirely whenever t

The cannabis to cocaine pipeline sadly is real, whether we want to or not. As long as the same people we buy our weed from also have a chance of being the people that have cocaine for you to buy, all that’s left to figure out is the money a

Haven’t gotten around to get myself a car yet, but I did have one of those electric scooters (2x900W motors I think, up to 50-60km/h depending on the climb) along with full gear (from moto shoes, gloves, and a helmet, to kevlar pants a

Since when is playing a movie off of a projector illegal? Projection is not necessarily distribution, just as playing local media files is not necessarily piracy. I will definitely be grabbing my popcorn for the legal show though

I decided to work towards pivoting away from full stack web and mobile development into something deeper, something closer to the metal, and something that could have a physical end result. I started programming at 12 because I loved games

If I understand GDPR and “the Right to be forgotten” properly, then yes - they would have to actually delete the information. Edit: at least when it comes to PII, which I presume should include photos of you, or any personal detail of you.

If you have real traffic and bot traffic, you still need to identify which is which. On top of that, bots very likely don’t reuse the same IPs over and over again. I assume if we knew all the IPs used only by bots ahead of time, then yeah i

My favorite part about the channels is specifically the music channels. I very much enjoy having a chance to re-listen to songs I’ve forgotten about or which aren’t in my daily rotation. Similarly, there used to be this place called The Tre

Would we just be splitting society in two in that case? Seeing as the poor would have nothing to give to the rich, nor the rich to the poor, wouldn’t the poor 99% just create their own new society with their own units of value?
