Dead code? No, no. "That is not dead which can eternal lie..."

Right, the reason I am mentioning effexor is because venlafaxine is one of the basic SNRIs, relevant to the parent comment.

For the record, since I am on a mix of concerta and effexor, effexor alone does nothing to alleviate my symptoms (at the 150mg dosage). Although for me the adhd medication is no problem. It is actually effexor that torments me, because I

I don't doubt that. For me, however, drugs like concerta changed my life from near catatonia to almost-regular function. If you see me behaving "normally", that is because I have taken my prescription. Otherwise, you will

I love the idea of Sage, and think an open-source state of the art CAS is essential in this day and age, but in trying to master it I got sick of Python. I truly, honestly loathe the way Python handles for symbolic computation, and digging

A good reminder that soundness bugs in trusted kernels are not merely a theoretical consideration.

Try not to do that in an uncontrolled file system. Filenames can and will have newlines, including trailing newlines, because evil people like myself inject them everywhere in our local user folders to keep sysadmins on their toes. Use th

If you do not have -0 options in your xargs/find, I wonder if you will have those extensions in your awk/sed. Perl is a different story.

This is why I tend to stick to POSIX shell scripting these days, avoiding even bash. The restriction does make some things too painful, though. Before the latest POSIX revision, certain workflows were comically hard to do (unless you co

This comment gives a sliver of hope for us currently outside academia and in low income academic institutions: enthusiastic laypeople with access (read: funds) to the SOTA models can collaborate with destitute researchers to produce researc

I forgot to thank you, I didn't know qemu supported risc-v arch! I am already using it for various vms.

Perhaps, but I am struggling to find a worse phrasing to get a point across.

Indeed, the first thing I would do as a malicious state entity would be to flood any such app with fake reports.

For the record, I found programming in MISRA C guidelines really fun; but then again, I did it out of personal interest. If I had to do it professionally, I guess the pressure would be less pleasant.

It is not "American AC" that is a serious contributing factor, much less the "main cause"(???).

I only have 16GB of RAM in my laptop, but I would love to run a powerful model like that even at 0.5 tokens/s. For the questions I am asking, such a speed is more than enough. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know! I am

Assuming the model doesn't decide you are trying to build a bomb and refuses to answer.
