D2OQZG8l5BI1S06··on Comparison of Malloc() Algorithms
Every time I tried to replace the allocator in an app, the speedup was negligible.

Because of this wasteful crap the internet is so slow nowadays...

D2OQZG8l5BI1S06··on ZCode: Claude Code from the Makers of GLM
"abysmal" probably.
D2OQZG8l5BI1S06··on Anthropic updates their terms to verify age or identity
I have no problem paying my groceries with my credit card, but I'd rather not give them a copy of my passport...
D2OQZG8l5BI1S06··on Valve P2P networking broken for more than 2 months
He already did lol, just didn't update the main website. Doesn't work very well for me, but it's something.

D2OQZG8l5BI1S06··on Natural-language messages between LLM agents are an architectural anti-pattern
The post is AI-written, so I did not read it. But based on title and abstract I'll have to disagree.

The native content LLMs understand is text. They were literally trained on it. They much prefer it to any arbitrary structure you could come up with.

We're used to think computers prefer content that is structured and binary etc; but with LLMs that changed.

D2OQZG8l5BI1S06··on Local AI needs to be the norm
Interesting article, but Qwen does seem to be closing off. They don't release big variants anymore, and I'm not sure that the fact the local-LLM community keeps praising it actually increases the number of people using their API.

It did work for Deepseek for sure and it seems to move the needle for Xiaomi's MiMo; but will it be enough for Qwen and Gemma? Those are the models you can actually run without going all-in on AI (but only with gaming GPUs and such).

D2OQZG8l5BI1S06··on A web page that shows you everything the browser told it without asking
AI really has a problem picking proper fonts, this is barely readable...
D2OQZG8l5BI1S06··on Ask HN: We just had an actual UUID v4 collision...
That makes sense. I'm not sure why anybody would generate UUIDs in browsers though, it seems to defeat the purpose.
D2OQZG8l5BI1S06··on Show HN: GhostBox – Borrow a disposable little machine from the Global Free Tier
Weird to have a .charity TLD but promote abusing Github Actions as free compute.
D2OQZG8l5BI1S06··on US National Debt Surpasses GDP
Note that this is only the federal debt, the full government has been 120%+ for a while.
D2OQZG8l5BI1S06··on GoDaddy gave a domain to a stranger without any documentation
The flagstream.com domain of Lee's employer is still registered to this day at GoDaddy. After such a story how do you not learn from it and migrate everything immediately?
