trapatsas··on Epoch confirms GPT5.4 Pro solved a frontier math open problem
I feel like this single image perfectly sums up the entire thread here: https://trapatsas.eu/sites/llm-predictions/
trapatsas··on End of 10: Upgrade your old Windows 10 computer to Linux
Haven’t been involved with Windows for quite a while but what happened to the “evergreen” promise? Weren’t they meant to be the “last version of Windows”?
trapatsas··on What you’re so passionate about, that you can give a lecture without preparing?
What specific about it? Planet movements? NASA missions? Black holes?
trapatsas··on Teen mental health is plummeting and social media is a major contributing cause [pdf]
What I see here is a bunch of adults pretending to understand what is best for their kids. Really unpopular opinion: you all don’t know shit.
trapatsas··on Ask HN: What's the most stable form of digital storage?
I’m surprised so many people suggest magnetic media for long term storage. They are extremely likely to be damaged at any point and from several sources and in the very long term they are guaranteed to fail due to cosmic radiation.
trapatsas··on Internet spring cleaning: How to delete Instagram, Facebook and other accounts
The article could just simple give some instructions on how to stop your data and internet subscriptions, which is pretty much equivalent.

What mental health?

Do you feel guilt asking this question?
trapatsas··on Against SQL
There are two types of people in the world. The ones that are pro-SQL and the ones that don’t understand how SQL works
trapatsas··on The political case for a blanket cryptocurrency ban
I hope it’s an April fool’s joke. I can’t explain the size of this nonsense otherwise.
trapatsas··on We Can Do Better Than SQL
No, you can’t. Another competing standard against SQL will die trying to be SQL.
trapatsas··on Adventures in Netflix
I stopped reading here: "My TV is “smart”, but I’m not insane enough to ever let it go on the interwebs." Anyone can give me a TLDR?
trapatsas··on Ask HN: What do you use Machine Learning for?
Is this somewhere online? Github, site or what?
trapatsas··on Ask HN: Disappointed by the new Macbook, what alternatives do we have?
XMG ( https://www.mysn.de ) offers custom, fully configurable high-end laptops. Take a look if you really want high performance without compromises.
trapatsas··on Do you test your database?
Good to hear! Although, I really have a strong feeling that only a small minority really tests SQL/databases.
