Its become a dick waggling contest. It will be quiet all night and then one person sets something off. Some other person "well ill show them who has better booms" and gets a bigger one, sets it off. Next thing you know its 30 minutes of booms and pops culminating in the largest boom possible, its goddamn irritatibg
The issue the GP is making is that rather than devising a whole new protocol altogether, including resolution and assignments, other things like that, adoption likely would have been much faster and wider.
Had the original plan been simply "extend address space" instead of "extend address space and while we are at it revamp and rewrite every part of the whole scheme including assignment, discovery, and everything else we see wrong with ipv4"; we would be in a much better place.
Adding extra address bytes would of course require new changes across the internet, but that change would be easier to swallow compared to having to rip and replace large swaths of processes to make ipv6 work because of all of the other changes that came with ipv6.
Also, the stupid idea of turning addresses to hex as the default, and more specifically the dumb :: shortening methods really made it confusing for everyone and didnt help at all in the efforts.
Pretty interesting, it is missing a number of configuration things that are oretty important, though can grow through time. Would be neat to see this with a reasonable plugin system to add additional functionality in an easy way (wouldnt want to see this done with pip/uv)
Perfect example for you: indeed.com (desktop site). unless its been fixed recently, huge swaths of area are already empty padded space, made worse by zooming
This is something i actually found chatgpt useful for. I gave it a list of books ive read and why i liked them, it gave me a list, some minimal summaries. I went and did some searches, read the back, told chatgpt my thoughts and it refined the list once more.
It was able to turn me to an author of a number of scifi books that really piqued my interest. One of them it prefaced with "dont read tue summaries" which i thought strange, but i listend, and ultimately bought the book just from reading a single line summary of it.
It doesnt help that guides ive seen have been pretty handwavy or are not specific enough to the individual situation (i have z hardware, heres how its done). It also doesnt help when every post on HN i see is like 'oh waow i did x on a mac mini with 128gb ram'. That spec is beyond many, running on generally available resources (such as hardware one might have laying around their house) do not seem fit for the purpose, so its back to building a new machine (gl when ram is worth 2x its weight in gold), or buying a $1000+ mac mini, or other device. Any low end system cant turn out tokens fast enough, or doesnt have the resources for context or processing.
Local ai is not ready, and if you think it is, prove me wrong with a detailed guide running commodity hardware with complete setup steps that can use a decently sized model.
I spent 2 weeks trying to get anything running - 8gb RX550XT, 12gb ram, 8core cpu. I even tried turboquant to lower memory utilization and still couldnt even get a 3B or 4B model loaded, and anything lower wont suit my needs (3/4B are even pushing it).
Clearly havent seen what enterprise hardware is like these days... sure, the OS takes 5 seconds.. but the hardware can take 10 minutes in some cases now glares at hpe gen11 systems. Its seriously bad now. The amount of power and time backround hardware level tasks now take has significantly increased over the last 10 years. Even the ancient dell r710 i have sititng in a closet collecting dust boots faster than todays hp gen11's.
We waste a ton of energy on ineffeciencies in hardware and software today all because we managed to "just go faster".
As automation via AI and the autonomous robot workforce slowly comes online, both of which are happening, these "basic jobs" will also become obsolete or automated. Jobs will increasingly shift to the STEM and away from workers on industrial lines or there will be extremely limited numbers of workers basically acting as overwatch; this can already be seen in a number of places where large factories are basically managed by 10-20 people unless theres large construction/expansion. This will become more prominent, as can be seen by the dark factories already in the works or partially operational. Many industrial jobs are going away, and people who have been in those industries their whole lives will not easily find other careers. UBI guarantees you can at least minimally survive without work, which is important during those periods where people are having to learn new industries to survive as their jobs are removed by automations.
Manufacturing isnt going anywhere, but it will increasingly take fewer and fewer people to operate and build many things.
UBJ would work in some cases where your knowledge could be (relatively) easily applied in other places, but we basically already have a partial implementation of UBJ, you can easily get employment assistance from almost any state in the US, but its also trying to do the same for 5+% of the human workforce at the same time. Sometimes it can be many weeks or even a few months to get something; what can a person already not making a lot do in that case? With UBI the stress is alleviated, and can help bolster the persons living situation when out of work.
Uggggggly car design, but the notion, i enjoy. Ive always been a fan of the retrofuturistic designs that people of the past had in mind for the future.
As such, i decided to start a new project a month or so ago.. Ive been working to build a model car kit from scratch, and i mean, from scratch. CAD to injection mould to kit and instructions. Im still in the cad steps, but its been pretty enjoyable so far. I am currently designing a retro coupe, which is powered by reactor. I might make it flying style, where the wheels are plasma thrusters instead of wheels.
uhg, good job but i regret clicking it! It made my eye twitch slightly, reminding me of a software i occasionally have to deal with called OpenLM.. its truly truly the worst webexperience ever had. Have you ever wanted a windows ui... but for a browser based application? No? Me either, and yet here this thing is!
Its like they took a look at the windows 98 ui and decided thats how their app should be, exactly. It even has a start button, and everything opens as a "window" in the browser screen.
And even worse, i initially thought it was some theme someone applied, but no, it was literally intentionally designed like that, and theres no alternative theme or formatting
Noob here. If you dont mind ive got some questions for you!
Ive recently started messing with the idea of making my own model car kits as a hobby. I understand a lot of the basics, but have never done anything like this before.
Im obviously not going to make kits in mass, but, i plan on doing injection molding using polystyrene. I do not currently have a cnc, but have been eyeing a SainSmart, though they say "can do metal under certain circumstances", but doesnt cover any of those circumstances. I also was looking at various injection machines and the price for entry is insane to me - $1000 for something that would probably burn your house down.
Anyway, to my questions..
1. Suggestions for a hobby cnc that can work aluminum? Id be willing to go as far as $2kUSD, unless theres something more that you think would serve me significantly better
2. Suggestions for a hobby injection machine that can do ~60-100g shots, that wont try to burn my house down, and doesnt cost a ton?
3. Any tips or thoughts for someone diving in to this?
4. Things i should purchase for QoL with cnc or injection molding?
5. Where does one buy materials (in hobby quantity) like aluminum block stock and polystyrene pellets?
Sega was also the pioneer of online gaming, in a sense. SEGA channel was a service provided by your cable company. You got an adapter that went into your SEGA and had a coax that went to your tv box. Every month you get access to 20-40 games, all of which were a range of titles everyone could enjoy. There was no multiplayer, except locally. You could even plug in games you owned without removing the adapter. Also had the bonus of the ability to play the sonic version with the red sonic, by plugging in one of your sonic versions, when the adapter had the red sonic game expander available in its game list.
To me it still holds as one of the coolest technologies (aside from a computer of course) from my childhood. Managed through tv channel sideband data.
Ive been trying to run local, effectively followed this guide (before the guide existed), and have not had any success. Llama builds fine, and then when i start it up, it just indefinitely spins its progress bar. I left it sit for 3 days and nada.
Running on an 8core 12gb ram vm, which has an amd rx5500xt (8gb) passed through. ROCm built, llama built with the correct flags.
I assume this would break observability through existing methods, right? If you were to strace a process that has been patched, would you see regular syscall data (as if it wasnt patched) or would your syscall replacement appear along the way?
"That takes up so much space!"
Worked until reboot. And thats the start of my dive into IT
