We must all make sacrifices in these trying times


I feel like we need to shout from the hills: vote in person. I know it’s unpleasant, and can be a time waster versus mail in. But the hostility for mail ballots is so overtly transparent, we should all be striving to bypass it to beat these clowns.


“Some of you may die, may become insolvent because of rising energy costs, or may go insane due to the high pitch whine of turbines near your homes….but that’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make”
Meshtastic with mqtt (maybe?)


I’m an AI coding minimalist…like it for some tasks like creating unit tests and other tedium.
The bun saga of having AI do everything has been a fascinating horror show. Excited to see where it goes.


Endeavouros has nvidia included


It’s a status thing. Like most of the crap the billionaires do.
It also has utility thought. It provides a big presence for guests. If you really want to hire someone or do some kinda business deal, you fly them by helicopter to the yacht. Wine and dine em in a floating ballroom. It’d be a lot harder to say no in that kind of space.


My fear is that this will change. We already saw LG load malware via windows when connected. So in theory future devices like Roku and Apple TV could act as a proxy for the tv.

Just keep Ungoogled Chromium installed for these use cases

If you enforce syntax instead of using natural language, then what you’re making is a programming language.
There are strategies to reducing hallucinations but you’re just kicking the can down the road. They will still happen.
The only true fix is human confirmation of output. This will always be the limit of LLMs


The dollar is collapsing

So LLM’s are basically fancy auto correct. You type a phrase and it guesses what comes next, based on training and weights, etc.
Hallucinations happen when the guess is wrong. And then you iterate on the wrong guess. So the initial guess can be minor, it can guess “how can I drive a car” instead of “how can I drive a tractor”. Which on its own is a small deviation, but after looping on that wrong guess, the outcome is much different.
This is a high level view but I hope it makes sense.

Yea the great weakness with LLM’s is that statistically a hallucination is inevitable. So its output always should be human verified.

Ai ceo’s would do great for a while. Then there’d be a single hallucination that would cause the company to fail and become insolvent.


Looks like SOMA in space instead of the ocean, and I’m here for it. Can’t wait for next year!


That’s a quarter of the whole world’s broad money. From a single company? GTFO Anthropic
It was a replacement for node.js and npm that was supposed to be faster and had other things built in like minifying and bundling iirc.
