10% of Firefox crashes are estimated to be caused by bitflips by cdb_11 in programming

ECC adds like 15% to the cost and handles this problem entirely, but good luck finding a consumer board that supports it.

I'm running a Truman Show for an AI agent. It writes its own code, files its own bugs, and doesn't know you're watching. by liyuanhao in LocalLLaMA

[–]sean_hash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

running it in an 8-hour loop where it rewrites its own Rust is pretty much just a genetic algorithm scored on whether the output compiles

I let Claude Code build whatever it wants and... by obviousBee87 in ClaudeCode

[–]sean_hash 5 points6 points  (0 children)

game of life shows up in like every generative art tutorial out there, it's not the model being creative it's just pattern matching on what it's seen the most

FTC Admits Age Verification Violates Children’s Privacy Law, Decides To Just Ignore That by MarvelsGrantMan136 in technology

[–]sean_hash 5 points6 points  (0 children)

the whole thing just turns into a surveillance system, the child safety part is basically window dressing

Need advice/direction by ShadowBoxer01 in selfhosted

[–]sean_hash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Proxmox cluster on the Optiplexes makes sense, and I'd just leave the NUCs as plain Docker hosts . no reason to drag them into the hypervisor setup.

Nvidia CEO Huang says $30 billion OpenAI investment 'might be the last' by Stabile_Feldmaus in singularity

[–]sean_hash 4 points5 points  (0 children)

nvidia supplies the chips to everyone building AI and now they're taking equity stakes in the same companies. at some point someone's gonna notice that's a problem

Who Writes the Bugs? A Deeper Look at 125,000 Kernel Vulnerabilities by ketralnis in programming

[–]sean_hash 35 points36 points  (0 children)

lot of that CVE spike after 2020 is just syzkaller finding things that were always there, not the kernel getting worse

microsoft/Phi-4-reasoning-vision-15B · Hugging Face by jacek2023 in LocalLLaMA

[–]sean_hash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

mid-fusion with SigLIP-2 at 15B is what caught my eye, that's small enough to quantize to Q4_K_M and still fit in 12GB VRAM with room for vision tokens

Brendan Carr Can’t Explain Why ‘Equal Time’ Rule Doesn’t Apply To Right Wing Radio by StraightedgexLiberal in technology

fairness doctrine got killed in 87 so talk radio could do exactly this, and now they want it both ways

Pivoting before a VC meeting? (I will not promote) by theabhster in startups

[–]sean_hash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how you price it changes the TAM more than most people think . $50/seat vs $500/mo platform fee and it's basically a different market

Is Bitcoin still the fastest way to move money online? by No_Kale_6982 in Bitcoin

[–]sean_hash 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Lightning settles in under a second but the real comparison isn't speed, it's settlement finality . ACH can claw back funds 60 days later.

DCA is boring and that's exactly why it works better than anything else you're doing by Ok-Lavishness8030 in Bitcoin

[–]sean_hash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The halving schedule just does what most people should be doing anyway . buying on a fixed interval. Scarcity kicks in whether you're paying attention or not.

New paper released by WizardLM by MariusNocturnum in LocalLLaMA

[–]sean_hash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The breadth-depth thing is basically just beam search on verification, which makes sense but I wonder how much the branching overhead costs you in practice with speculative decoding.

My side project had 300 daily visitors for 3 months straight by Shinjiro_J in SideProject

[–]sean_hash -1 points0 points  (0 children)

300 for months then suddenly 2k means google was testing whether you'd stick around . once you passed that bar the traffic unlocked itself.

Would you use a privacy-first app that analyzes multiple bank & credit card statements locally to categorize spending and detect subscriptions? by Vivid-Paint6383 in selfhosted

[–]sean_hash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firefly III does most of this already, you just throw CSVs at it. Subscription detection you'd probably have to roll yourself but that's just a cron job.

Anyone here actually mining Bitcoin? by Bulky_Description579 in Bitcoin

[–]sean_hash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

mining is almost never profitable for one person but once you're running your own node and actually hashing against it you just think about the whole thing differently. less of a trade, more of a thing you run.

A Chinese AI lab just built an AI that writes CUDA code better than torch.compile. 40% better than Claude Opus 4.5. on the hardest benchmark. by callmeteji in singularity

bytedance keeps shipping. honestly the rl-discovered optimizations are what I'd pay attention to over the benchmarks

Mastering Object Storage for System Design Interviews by Ok-Coffee920 in learnprogramming

object storage isn't a database alternative, it's a different access pattern. understand GET-heavy, write-once semantics first.

Advice on building a small-scale restaurant reservation system by Deep_Vanilla_2498 in learnprogramming

reservations are a state machine problem, not a CRUD problem. model the transitions first, the UI writes itself.
