Are there many redis drop-ins alternatives?
papruapap··on Sombrero Galaxy dazzles in new James Webb image
How long did it take you to check the positions of all starts? :D
papruapap··on Ollama 0.4 is released with support for Meta's Llama 3.2 Vision models locally
oh sad :(, hope they upstream it at some point.
papruapap··on Ollama 0.4 is released with support for Meta's Llama 3.2 Vision models locally
I thought llamacpp didn't support images yet, has that changed or ollama is using a different library for this?
papruapap··on I just tested ChatGPT Search vs. Google – here's the results
At least Google is still "usable" meanwhile Youtube search became the biggest piece of cr*p ever produced: "Shorts" "People like you also like this completely unrelated content" "Do you want results? haha, here you have home results as well".

Kinda sad because it was amazing before.

papruapap··on A modest critique of Htmx
I see BE coding more and more in configuration files nowadays YMMV.
papruapap··on Winamp Legacy player source code
man, at first glance doesnt look like a lot of work to add support to linux.
papruapap··on AI tool cuts unexpected deaths in hospital by 26%, Canadian study finds
Isn't regression a basic AI? Most traditional ML algorithms are advanced regression models (how we draw the line/planes)
papruapap··on Stripe's Monorepo Developer Environment
imo monorepos are great, but the tooling is not there, especially the open-sourced ones. Most companies using monorepos have their own tailored tools for it.
papruapap··on GPUs Go Brrr
I really hope we see AI-PU (or with some other name, INT16PU, why not) for the consumer market sometime soon. Or been able to expand GPU memory using a pcie socket (not sure if technically possible).
papruapap··on IBM Granite: A Family of Open Foundation Models for Code Intelligence
prob getting some reputation in AI space will help them to sell watsonx. tbf, watson predates Transformers paper.
papruapap··on The Snapdragon 855's iGPU
I dont think. AMD is releasing a 256b width soon, we will how it performs.
papruapap··on You won't find a technical co-founder
I think it was implied that OP has enough experience for those to be the minimal requirements so both bring the same value to the table.
papruapap··on USB hubs, printers, Java, and more seemingly broken by macOS 14.4 update
tbf MS is not the "normal" in the aspect. They are pretty much the backwwrds-compatibility kings.
papruapap··on Cranelift code generation comes to Rust
iirc Zig want to replace LLVM for similar reasons, also hard to debug.
papruapap··on Uber to pay $272M to Australian taxi operators
In 90% of all countries really, most common scam ever. That is why travelers use Uber more than natives.
papruapap··on macOS Sonoma 14.4 might break Java on your machine
Docker Desktop still sucks at least on my corp mac.
papruapap··on Copilot Pro has "priority access to GPT-5 Turbo in peak times"
I like who OpenAI claimed they were not under MS control lol
papruapap··on Netflix: Piracy is difficult to compete against and growing rapidly
Netflix app on my TV crashed when I plugged-in my usb headset :/
papruapap··on Deno in 2023
Agree. This feature just make it worse as a script language, which are supposed to have rapid development.
papruapap··on Edge Detection for Image Processing
No really related, but I personally dislike GaussianBlur as the default noise removal method in all CV articles. In a lot of cases is more useful to filter by color (like BLACK letters in a white paper) otherwise bilateral filter (also available our of the box in OpenCV) usually works better especially if you want to do edge-detection (gaussian also blur edges). Yeah, GaussianBlur may be better performance-wise, but that is something you should consider if you real-time app is short of cpu-power.
papruapap··on Ask HN: What alternatives exist to a Mac mini but for Windows?
What kind of recommendation is this? Either buy outdated stuff or buy something bigger while ignoring the thousands of minipcs models available?
papruapap··on C and C++ Hot-Reload/Live Coding
Well... this sure looks better than my powershell script for hotreloading lol
papruapap··on Linux hits nearly 4% desktop user share on Statcounter
Anecdotally, recently I tried to upgrade/update a PC (at my parent's house) running a 5 YO Manjaro build and was not possible. All mirrors dead, GPG keys server dead, broken dependencies, etc... I am far from a Linux expert but tried everything I could, sometimes checking 10 YO threads and ChatGPT. In the end I just installed Windows O o.
papruapap··on Linux hits nearly 4% desktop user share on Statcounter
Do you have any source of that? I'd guess most of them just use a windows User Agent to avoid being flagged.
papruapap··on Linux hits nearly 4% desktop user share on Statcounter
Chromebooks are quite amazing, sadly not native command line, not native IDEs (afaik) and usually very low on ram.
papruapap··on NY Times copyright suit wants OpenAI to delete all GPT instances
Using similar logic NYT should pay all actors involved in their articles.
papruapap··on Where Is OpenCV 5?
Isn't C++ support quite minimal for both?
papruapap··on Brother have gotten to where they are now by not innovating
wait what? Any tutorial on how this works?
papruapap··on Xbox will block third-party controllers to "preserve the console experience"
Problem is that console gamers are by default cheaters on FPS since all of them have aim-assist. If I were a competitive player I would be pissed off if a console player is higher in the ranking because of it.
