test6554··on Death to type classes
I just picture Charlie from “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” connecting the dots.
test6554··on Dotter: Dotfile manager and templater written in Rust
It’s the mark of a good programming language that you can, with sufficient effort, write bad code.
test6554··on Ban me at the IP level if you don't like me
Do some people just mentally insert the word “people” after every occurrence of the words “black” or “white” they happen across in their daily lives?

And then decide whoever used them had malicious intent?

test6554··on Streaming services are driving viewers back to piracy
This. Pokemon likely has an a la carte menu and platforms can choose which seasons they want.

Streaming services have a limited budget for kids content so they can’t catch em all without sacrificing other kids content. They need pokemon they need action they meed rainbows and princesses and they needs stuff for babies and toddlers.

test6554··on Every visual workflow tool is just Excel for developers who gave up
This is a bit like getting mad that Adam Sandler made another movie. It costs you nothing that stuff other people like exists. Don't waste energy on it.
test6554··on Nintendo Switch 2 account bans continue: warning after buying old copy of Bayo 3
I bought a digital only PS5 and bought like 6 games for it. I went into it understanding the limitations and like not having to swap out discs. PS5 is just a tiny sliver of my life which is busy and complicated and I’m paying for the simplicity. I’m ok letting go of such a small amount of control.
test6554··on Now might be the best time to learn software development
Experts warn that at current production levels, the supply of dick pics may actually outpace demand in a couple decades.
test6554··on Waymo rides cost more than Uber or Lyft and people are paying anyway
Exactly. You're not paying more for the same ride. You are paying to have some time alone. To not have to deal with others where you can listen to an audiobook, have a conversation on your phone that feels private or other things.
test6554··on Judge rules Apple executive lied under oath, makes criminal contempt referral
Apple might still appeal to a higher court and lean heavily on that donation to Trump for legal support. They as much as said they would appeal the decision.
test6554··on How much do you think it costs to make a pair of Nike shoes in Asia?
A game that is not on a computer... So they don't even calculate damage or move distance for you. And you have to buy each figurine and paint it yourself...

And people are spending all their money on this? That's why we're not mining asteroids right now?

I feel like people could just use AR glasses for this and spend nothing but their time.

test6554··on The Insanity of Being a Software Engineer
For me work is work. Getting up on Monday Morning is always going to be a bummer. So I might as well get PAID and air conditioning.
test6554··on Open-UI: Maintain an open standard for UI and promote its adherence and adoption
Better native standards could mean ant.design updates their components to use less js with the same ux. So everyone still wins.
test6554··on Open-UI: Maintain an open standard for UI and promote its adherence and adoption
An unmaintainable mess in 10 to 20 years.
test6554··on xlskubectl – a spreadsheet to control your Kubernetes cluster
Now let’s map helm config files to csv and use pivot tables for networking
test6554··on Open-UI: Maintain an open standard for UI and promote its adherence and adoption
We have <input> and <label for=""> elements, but what about <validation for="" condition="" message=""> elements?

Condition could be a wide range of possible built-in validation functions or a custom regex or js function.

Instead of adding all these validation attributes to <input> elements you could have zero or more <validation> elements, each with their own message.

The message could automatically appear when its conditions fail. Unless you call preventDefault() inside an "invalid" event handler. The invalid event could have a list of all "validations" for that element and you could check their status via js, disarm/ignore them individually, or get their messages etc.

test6554··on Sri Lanka scrambles to restore power after monkey causes islandwide outage
Some places attract tourism because of the local wildlife. Take that away and eventually they wouldn’t be able to afford MRI machines anyway.
test6554··on New York claims a small victory in 'forever war on rats'
I have never really felt the allure of living in a big city. Higher cost of living, smaller living spaces, noisy neighbors, rats apparently...
test6554··on The young, inexperienced engineers aiding DOGE
If Direct File takes away too much revenue from Intuit by handling all of the simple cases, then people with more complex taxes will have to pay quite a bit for their tax software. It might not even make sense to continue producing it. Or at least that could be what Intuit lobbyists are furiously telling republican congressmen.
test6554··on The young, inexperienced engineers aiding DOGE
Even if they somehow managed to clear $250 bn in wasteful federal expenses, people would still be upset and start demanding how it should be spent.
test6554··on The young, inexperienced engineers aiding DOGE
I guess I'll just have to become a shareholder
test6554··on Bypass DeepSeek censorship by speaking in hex
The harder a person or country tries to avoid absolutely any embarrassment, the more fun it becomes to embarrass them a little bit.
test6554··on TokenVerse: Multi-Concept Personalization in Token Modulation Space by Google
Something like this could make creatives feel more in control and less averse to AI image generation.
test6554··on Comcast is rolling out 'ultra-low lag' tech that could fix the internet
Now that they know they can charge extra for it, they decided to make the investment.
test6554··on How to run Deepseek-R1 locally for only $6000
Motherboard: Gigabyte MZ73-LM0 or MZ73-LM1. We want 2 EPYC sockets to get a massive 24 channels of DDR5 RAM to max out that memory size and bandwidth. (https://www.gigabyte.com/Enterprise/Server-Motherboard/MZ73-...)

CPU: 2x any AMD EPYC 9004 or 9005 CPU. LLM generation is bottlenecked by memory bandwidth, so you don't need a top-end one. (https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16819113865)

Get the 9115 or even the 9015 if you really want to cut costs

RAM: This is the big one. We are going to need 768GB (to fit the model) across 24 RAM channels (to get the bandwidth to run it fast enough). That means 24 x 32GB DDR5-RDIMM modules. Example kits (https://v-color.net/products/ddr5-ecc-rdimm-servermemory?var...) and (https://www.newegg.com/nemix-ram-384gb/p/1X5-003Z-01FM7)

Case: You can fit this in a standard tower case, but make sure it has screw mounts for a full server motherboard, which most consumer cases won't. The Enthoo Pro 2 Server will take this motherboard (https://www.newegg.com/black-phanteks-enthoo-pro-2-server-ed...)

PSU: The power use of this system is surprisingly low! (<400W) However, you will need lots of CPU power cables for 2 EPYC CPUs. The Corsair HX1000i has enough, but you might be able to find a cheaper option (https://www.corsair.com/us/en/p/psu/cp-9020259-na/hx1000i-fu...)

Heatsink: This is a tricky bit. AMD EPYC is socket SP5, and most heatsinks for SP5 assume you have a 2U/4U server blade, which we don't for this build. You probably have to go to Ebay/Aliexpress for this (https://www.ebay.com/itm/226499280220)

SSD: Any 1TB or larger SSD that can fit R1 is fine. I recommend NVMe, just because you'll have to copy 700GB into RAM when you start the model, lol

test6554··on How to run Deepseek-R1 locally for only $6000
So a single RTX 4080 ain't gonna cut it. :-(
test6554··on Promising results from DeepSeek R1 for code
"Make me a big-ass car" vs "Make me a big ass-car"
test6554··on Promising results from DeepSeek R1 for code
It's the handle of a frying pan, obviously.
test6554··on Who killed the rave?
We may very well see a future judgy christian nationalist generation of youngsters who frown at grandma and grandpa millennial's tattoos and our nasty sexually explicit oldies music.
test6554··on AI model for near-instant image creation on consumer-grade hardware
"I will make it legal"
test6554··on Netflix buffering issues: Boxing fans complain about Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson
Yea, it’s a bad look. But I switched to watching some other Netflix video and it seemed fine. Just this event had some early issues. Looks fine now though.
