Who are you referring too? I am really curious.

FileSorteron New HBO Documentary Claims Bitcoin Creator Satoshi Nakamoto Is Len Sassaman

Yep, I make this point often.

The only two that match up with the Windows piece of the puzzle are Dave Kleiman and Paul Le Roux. Of those two, Paul Le Roux had a interest in online gambling. Guess what the first Bitcoin release had references to.

FileSorteron Skydio Ascend '24 Keynote [video]

This came across my feed and I found a lot of the tech they demo'd very cool.

In particular, the augmented overlay of the roads and officer waypoint.

FileSorteron Intel lost the Sony Playstation business to AMD

>The problem with choosing Nvidia is that they can't make an x86 processor with an integrated GPU

FileSorteron Bitcoin puzzle #66 was solved: 6.6 BTC (~$400k) withdrawn

My question is where is he going to get the data?

Twitter, reddit and the rest of the web have deployed a number of anti-scrape techniques.

This is HackerNews, we all know who Carmack is.

Just about everyone (even diehard Apple fanboys) knew this would flop.

FileSorteron llama-fs: A self-organizing file system with llama 3

Neat, I built a tool to quickly do this manually via key bindings[0].

FileSorteron Hot take on OpenAI’s new GPT-4o

Why is it so hard for models to say "I don't know" or "That never happened"?

This seems to be a fundamental side effect of next token thinking, training data, etc.

FileSorteron Intel Processor Instability Causing Oodle Decompression Failures

I recently had to RMA my i9-13900KS because it was faulty. I was experiencing some of the weirdest behavior I have ever seen on a PC. For example, 1. Whenever I tried to install Nvidia drivers I would get "7-zip: Data error" 2. A fresh install of Windows would give me SxS error when trying to launch edge 3. I could not open the control panel 4. BSOD loop on boot

FileSorteron First images of Spaceship Neptune's capsule structure

FileSorteron Mojo might be the biggest thing to happen in programming for decades

I really hate python's lack of curly braces.

It makes code so much more unreadable, copy+paste error prone, etc.

Would be nice if this new language made them optional so new code could could be written with them.

FileSorteron The Coming Game Engine Inflection Point

Bad article. This is an outsider's perspective looking in. Godot and Blender are no where near industry standards.

FileSorteron Neuralink Show and Tell, Fall 2022

I have heard that is the number one issue with invasive implants.
