This is a repost from last japril.

That sounds highly probable. Especially the part where they said he can have it forever in the Oval Office. Case closed everyone!

He’s worse than a jaguar owner

Why do these places even make sense to build datacenters in?

LOL the macos dictionary entry/quicklook entry for “MechaHitler” gives you Grok’s wikipedia page

Which happens because wikipedia redirects “Mechahitler” to Grok

👍

Cut and paste, what is this 1996?

I for one liked the third and fourth panels

Yeah that’s what I usually do, as long as it’s passed by reference there isn’t anything too bad here.

That’s not uncommon, is it?

What?

Can you edit the byte code with a hex editor to change that check?

That is cool! I’ve been wanting I’ve wanted to use a model like this but haven’t really looked.

Are you self hosting the long context llm, of do what are you using?

Context lengths are what kill a lot of my local llm experiments.

I like Swift, it makes me wish other languages had its callback/block features and builder syntax.

And extending classes widely modifying the core class is super useful.

I wish it had more features for low level memory optimization, and I haven’t really gotten into the macro situation.

I’ll be honest, when I was learning to program in Java I mostly just wrapped errors in an empty try catch to shut them up, with no regard for actually handling them.

I assume most other learners do that too.

If possible convert those files to compressed parquet, and apply sorting and partitioning to them.

I’ve gotten 10-100gb csv files down to 300mb-5gb sizes just by doing that

That makes searching and scanning so much faster, and you can do this all with open source free software like polars and ibis.

Definitely agree with you

From my experience most companies enshitify before the IPO to juice the metrics and boost their valuations (I.e. their payout).

The fact that they aren’t doing that yet that is a positive sign.

But founders aren’t immune to suffering from billionaire brain rot and years of exposure to the constant sycophancy and wealth seems to turn nearly everyone into a greed driven money soulless vampire.

CEOs benefit from keeping their employees scared and their shareholders excited, take what they say with a huge grain of salt.

Ah, well, such is software dependencies.

I can’t live without vim.

Sometimes I wander into vscode but it’s less productive for me.

Plus vscode has weird name inconsistencies (the app is called visual studio code, it’s branded as vscode, and the menu bar says Code), which is probably normal for Microsoft but unusual elsewhere.
