  • Is AI Profitable Yet?

    Jump

  • That nvidia one is probably impossible to pin down, since it is really just a big ouroboros investment human centipede eating its own revenue out of all the other asses.

  • Am I broken, or am I saying the quiet part out loud?

    Jump

  • As a pretty old man, I cannot wait for this phase to end. Been decades and I still live in this prison.

  • Any dead franchises that can survive being rebooted?

    Jump

  • Yes, but you certainly don’t need to and wouldn’t want to wait that long. You risk lower interest, retirements, loss of acting ability through death or injury, etc. You can convincingly age adults pretty soon. I think they could start filming now or easily within the next 5 years.

  • The Expanse

    The show didn’t cover the Laconia story line, and given the time that passes before the final three books, we’re coming up on the perfect time to get the same cast back to do it.

    The last few books are, in my view, the most compelling part of an already superb story.

  • Russia uses hypersonic Oreshnik missile in mass attack on Kyiv

    Jump

  • You’re right that hypersonic cruise missiles are probably a greater threat and maybe there is a propaganda side to this, but the Oreshnik is no slouch and not particularly easy to intercept. Yes it is ballistic, but it carries MIRV’s which are notoriously challenging. Not arguing at all, just explaining that these are a substantial threat too.

  • What Should I Use Instead of Github? - Codeberg Gitlab and BitBucket

    Jump

  • I really like Source Hut. It forces you to learn how to use git with its built in patch and send via email system. Also they host gemini small web.

  • French people drinking more beer than wine for first time as cost of living soars

    Jump

  • Our first few batches were not backsweetened. They were a bit dry but I still love the flavor. But the backsweetening is actually a fun bit of alchemy itself. Some people think it is heresy for purity reasons, and that is a-okay, but to the worries some have that it is unsafe, that can be mitigated. We actually pasteurize, so it is no bottle bomb issue.

    The maple is really good. Maple and vanilla are 2 of my favorite flavors, but my wife talked me into the butterscotch extract and it actually turned a corner. Like, it leveled it up way further than I expected.

    The caramelization idea is interesting. Maybe we should experiment.

  • Trump Mobile exposes data of customers who ordered the T1 phone

    Jump

  • Yes. Which is why he got involved in this. Hoping to get some information on the process then pull out before shipping. Then the next day they finally decided to ship, or something like that, so he got stuck.

  • And coffeezilla.

  • French people drinking more beer than wine for first time as cost of living soars

    Jump

  • We haven’t tried any melomel yet. Our backsweetening is based around warm flavors like butterscotch, maple, and vanilla so those profiles would clash.

    The honey we prefer is Honning AS Ukrainian Sommer. Might be best to get from a local beekeeper, but this stuff is extremely consistent and delicious. Doesn’t really matter too much though, candidly. The fermentation strips a lot of the character.

  • Do you sleep with noise?

    Jump

  • Yes. Generally with Would I Lie to You or the Unbelievable Truth.

  • I don’t miss my CPAP days.

  • Plex increasing Lifetime Plex Pass cost to whopping $750

    Jump

  • I run docker with about 10 services on a DS923+ with no issues.

  • GitHub confirms breach of 3,800 repos via malicious VSCode extension

    Jump

  • Safe in ed.

  • French people drinking more beer than wine for first time as cost of living soars

    Jump

  • Not due to cost as much as just aging and having some time and space, my wife and I have started making wine and mead. Actually what prompted it was moving to a place with a plum tree.

    I highly recommend it; very rewarding. Pretty easy, not a huge startup cost. Delicious!

    We are now rotating 6 x 5 L carboys, and making lot's of mead. We have got the process down to a very precise set of steps with careful measurement and controls. If you amortize cost for non-consumables like carboys, siphons, hygrometers, etc. and calculate only consumable cost, each batch is way cheaper than anything in a storefront, and made with love. Everything is better when made by one's own hand.

  • Former Microsoft VP says Microsoft missed the AI wave like the internet and mobile, as Copilot scales back in Windows 11

    Jump

  • There is definitely some truth to what you’re saying, but my point is that those aren’t conflicting with the technology working. There are many scholarly refereed papers on transformer performance and generational improvement on standardized metrics. I don’t see the value in conflating something working with it being good or ethical. There is a gap between utility and hype, yes. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t work, and the inexorable negativity that comes invariably to comments recognizing this simple truth undercuts actual critical feedback.

  • Former Microsoft VP says Microsoft missed the AI wave like the internet and mobile, as Copilot scales back in Windows 11

    Jump

  • I think it is so strange people say stuff like this as though there aren’t objective metrics showing it does. We don’t have to like the billionaires using it to subjugate people, or the energy and water consumption, or the theft of copyrighted materials to be honest about the technology.

    It does work. As far as ml models go, since backpropagation was implemented in training, transformers have become extremely capable.

  • DOJ reportedly demands Apple and Google identify over 100,000 users of car app
