Being able to hold 10x the weight of paper doesn't sound so impressive that it would require an astrophysicist to invent it.

I was more ready to accept the headline if it had been invented by the kid.

Are you telling me you can't roll up 10 origami papers and stand them on a reasonably stable origami pattern?


it's 10k, 10,000, not 10

lol

that makes way more sense

not enough coffee bcak


Pigs are huge blobs of meat.

Families would raise one pig they would slaughter once a year and it would be a regular source of preserved meat and fat over the following year.

All of this was pre "green" revolution so it has to be carbon neutral at that level of consumption(which is admittedly lower than that of most people these days).

Eating meat once a year is an exaggeration when it comes to pork.


I was hoping to see one of his posts here. If he's going to post under an alt, he should advertise it so that I can know which posts I should be taking extra ironically.

He's not posting under an alt--that's an absurd slander.

Of course

What this comment looks like to a C programmer:

I actually "shipped" a parser using the symbols' hash(as the only identifier) for a test tool once. Hopefully, the users never used enough symbols to collide 32-bits.

Let's be honest, though. If you designed a new sudo in a system with doas(1) it would look nothing like modern sudo.

I can't remember the name, but I read about a rust project a few months ago which claimed that even doas had too much feature creep.

Features are added because people cannot do X and want to, and so it is added.

I'm happy to have a spectrum of privilege-escalation utilities of varying capabilities, but just because one person does not need certain functionality (like talking to LDAP) does not mean I don't.


It is only irrelevant because devices made in this century put a lot of work into not transmitting outside of the intended frequencies.

My old Nokia would smash the whole range of AM/FM and UHF bands.

I don't know about higher frequencies that could escape one of these cages intended to block WiFi/5G/GPS but it is possible in theory and then it would be likely a backdoor that only becomes active when no signal can be detected.


had to check. glad he's still among us as far as i can tell.


I think the Universe Management wants him to see one more recession.


I didn't know this was a thing until I read this thread but I can confirm that it does fine(not perfect by any means just like the average casual non-native fluent speaker) and it is one of the reasons I use it as my local model.


llama.cpp being the best choice doesn't make it popular.

When I got started, I was led to ollama and other local-llm freemium.

I didn't necessarily assume that they weren't c++(I don't even know) but I do think that –as implied– Python duct-tape solutions are more popular than llama.cpp.
