betimsl··on Mira Murati leaves OpenAI
As an albanian, I can confirm she wrote it herself (obviously with the help of ChatGPT) -- no finesse and other writing elements.

betimsl··on Flameshot – Open-source screenshot software

Great loss for our community.
betimsl··on Move over, tractor – The farmer wants a crop-spraying drone
I agree with you that a farm needs at least one tractor. But this drone is much better because it burns less fuel, can fly autonomously, and it's much cheaper to run; no tractor can beat that.
betimsl··on Move over, tractor – The farmer wants a crop-spraying drone
Of course they are powerful and can pull a lot of weight but it struggles doing that. You can hear it in the sound when you let go of the clutch, the stress of the chassis and all that it brings with it. At the end of a day it sprays much more than it is needed, so lose-lose situation.

Now if you combine this drone with a targeted spray depositing, you see where I'm getting?

P.S. I don't know why my comment was down voted, but ignorance knows no boundaries.

This is much more efficient than a diesel tractor that struggles to pull itself.

Super idea :)

Yes. The world needs another one of these...
betimsl··on The Ken Thompson Hack
I think UNIX will be secure; next generation of AI will be able to scan directly the image of a compiled kernel and will be able to detect -- if not all -- harmful things.

betimsl··on Statement regarding the ongoing Sourcehut outage
>“what if the primary datacenter just disappeared tomorrow?” We ask this question of ourselves seriously, and make serious plans for what we’d do if this were to pass, and we are executing those plans now – though we had hoped that we would never have to.

Respectfully, if you guys asked this question...how come you don't have a cluster slave as a replica in another data center where the whole thing is synced?

A switch on a wall with an arduino in it where you flip it and DNS is updated to point there & a message is displayed to the users.

betimsl··on Downloading a video should be “fair use” as recording a song from the radio
Like everybody, I'm also a fan of free (anything). But you did not ask for the waves that pass through you (so you have the right to record it); but, you have to request a file from a server, not the same thing.
