  • Maybe unplug for awhile

  • Cybersecurity, Ethical Hacker Operating System Poll

    Jump

  • I've run almost every OS.

    My daily driver is Debian. It's practical, efficient, stable, and with just a few commands clipped out of blog articles, it morphs into whatever weird silly thing I happen to need it to be, this year.

  • Is Python's tooling incredibly difficult, or am I just stupid?

    Jump

  • as long as you write it for yourself, you re good. As soon as you want to share it, you have a problem

    A perfect summary of the history of computer code!

  • Is this the line for the gently used shit microwaves?

  • The Simulation Theory

    Jump

  • Yeah. I've beaten Castle Wolfenstein. The secret turned out to be shooting all of the Nazis. Also a lot of secret doors, one in particular leading to a particularly big gun.

    I want a world for my kids where our solution is nuanced, and education and growth oriented.

    But if my dream isn't possible, I'll settle for a world where as many Nazis as possible are just dead.

  • Elon Musk Suddenly Realizes That Teslas With "Self-Driving" Computers May Never Be Able to Actually Self-Drive

    Jump

  • I don't believe that you can use traditional algorithms to teach the car street driving, because there are to many different variations... Even if your autopilot is 99% correct and you drive 20000km a year, you still drive wrong 200km of it.

    Exactly!

    And this is why, if the problem is solveable, it must be solved by learning models shepherded by expert engineers. The LLMs can take care of the long boring stretches, freeing skilled engineer time to fine-tune an LLM algorithm hybrid for the tricky bits.

    I'm inclined to believe the problem is solveable, but since I'm not selling anything, I'm allowed to say "if". Heh.

  • Need more fiber

    Jump

  • That makes sense. But then I would feel like I was wasting all this cool media equipment I already have set up.

  • Elon Musk Suddenly Realizes That Teslas With "Self-Driving" Computers May Never Be Able to Actually Self-Drive

    Jump

  • Yeah. Current generation learning models can do impressive things in the hands of a skilled engineer, but Elon is leading a round of class warfare against skilled engineers right now.

    Shareholders need to decide which they really want to bet on to win.

    Jump

  • Makes sense. I'm not picky about which exact risks our entitled overconfident billionaires opt to take.

  • Highly cited engineer offers guaranteed publication in return for coauthorship

    Jump

  • I only clicked through the article to see if it's any of the dudes I've worked with who have taken credit for my work in the past.

    Nope. This is a new one, to me. Probably not to his peers, though.

  • I mean, if anyone ever introduces the average shareholder to those executive decision desk toy spinners, the average CEO is fucked.

  • Sometimes I'm reminded that there's always a chance that they go submarine diving or some such with another overconfident crony who thinks their skills got them where they are today.

  • That out of the way, FSD sucks, and it's getting worse, not better.

    It's almost like they bet on the AI to teach the AI, rather than continuing to pay for skilled engineers.

    Buckle up folks, we're going to see a lot more of this, across every industry, before the lawsuits go into high gear and anything gets better.

  • Need more fiber

    Jump

  • Wait...You don't all also have this setup?

    How else is anyone supposed to know how things are going while they're going?

  • Small talk

    Jump

  • Yeah. Statistically a small vestige of us may well survive to tell horror stories of our coming experiences.

  • Do you have cat?

    Jump

  • That's delightful.

    I imagine his origin story, as an alley cat talking to another alley cat:

    "Those house cats have it so nice. I wish I could have that."

    "Bro. Just pick a human. They're push-overs."

    "Seriously?"

    "Yeah. You just wait for their door to open and then pick your spot in the couch."

    "That easy?!"

    "It's that easy."

    "I'm gonna do it."

  • Me Time

    Jump

  • Fuck. That's relatable. Oof.

  • I made a library similar to Testcontainers, but works differently.

    Jump

  • This is terrific. More folks would be more excited if they realized how much less hassle Podman is than Docker.
