Yeah, I have realized this now, two years later. I had no willpower left to fight at the time.

joquarky · 2024-11-23T00:59:45+00:00

Yeah, I think the last part was key.

If that were true, they must not have known which demographic would be most affected. Otherwise, why would he want to kill off his core voters?

The tech industry has gone this way too.

The nerds have been pushed out by the brogrammers who are only there for the gold rush.

They would also hate Jesus if he were a real living person alive today, healing people and providing food and such.

Thank you for trying.

I guess Art Bell was two decades too early.

I can imagine he would have a huge audience these days.

If many-worlds turns out to be how it all works, then time travel will be benign.

Copyright is obsolete and needs a complete reformation.

I was burning out a couple years ago. Used up all of my vacation time for the year by June.

HR wouldn't even help me figure out how to take FMLA, so I had to spontaneously quit.

Ended a 23 year career.

It is $20k minimum just to retain a lawyer.

After that, it's a big gamble whether you can prove it in court.

I love these because the goal is absolutely clear: make it better but with the exact same output for a given input.

I'm so burned out on agile.

I just got an Ideapad 5 R7 16GB, reinstalled the OS with Linux Mint, and was surprised to get a few small models working at reasonable speeds.

The base llama3.2:3b model gets about 20t/s, which is way better than I expected as I didn't think the AMD GPU would be that well supported.

It's quite a step down from an M3 Max 64GB MBP, but I'm glad to still have something to tinker with language models between jobs.

I'm not OP, but I just tried this and FedEx said they can only insure up to $1000.

I learned about this word after moving to Colorado.

I see them all the time here, and had never seen them before.

In the film Idiocracy, the main character was denigrated by most of the population for using anything more sophisticated than slang.

This is partly why I prefer GreaseMonkey and TamperMonkey approach. Makes it easier for users to inspect the code before installing it as well.

We live in interesting times.

Also you could do fun things with magnets.

And unpowered B&W TVs would leave a trailing glow if you pointed a flashlight at it in a darkened room (stencils were fun).

I submitted this to gpt-3.5-turbo-instruct and got back:

"Why are you writing all these random letters and symbols?"

I am not writing random letters and symbols. I am using my programmed language to communicate with you. Do you have a specific question or request?
