Wondering....

Has anyone tried doing this on ReactOS? I know this is a touch DIY, but it would be interesting to know if Win sofware could be built on ReactOS...


Wooshka.

I hope they've got good heat sinks... and I hope they've plugged into renewable energy feeds...


Fresh water and gas turbines, I'm afraid...

Nope! It's gas turbines

For now. And also largely because it's easier to get that up and running than the alternative.

Eventually, as we ramp up on domestic solar production, (and even if we get rid of solar tariffs for a short period of time maybe?), the numbers will make them switch to renewable energy.


This is so neat. Thanks for putting it together. A strange number system, but interesting. It would be great if it could be done in Unicode. I'm intrigued to know what it was used for.


Until relatively recently the western world didn't really agree on a numeral system.

(As an aside, the western Arabic numerals we use today are quite different to the eastern Arabic numerals used in Arabic writing)


There seems to be a good amount of interest for a boot sector compiler!!

If you're running on Linux, adjust the qemu call to use alsa rather than coreaudio.

I generated a pull request for this on Github. If the author is happy enough with my verbose shell scripting style :-) it might get included.


..A small thing, but it won't compile the RISCV version of hello.c if the source isn't installed on the machine it's running on.

It is standing on the shoulders of giants (all of the compilers of the past, built into it's training data... and the recent learnings about getting these agents to break up tasks) to get itself going. Still fairly impressive.

On a side-quest, I wonder where Anthropic is getting there power from. The whole energy debacle in the US at the moment probably means it made some CO2 in the process. Would be hard to avoid?


Interestingly, if we could do floating orbital platforms above Venus, it could perhaps look a little like the Jetsons.


He was once a big pin in Y Combinator (I think kind of ran it?)... Paul Graham thought he was great for YC.

Interesting that he's got as far as he has with this issue. I don't think you can run a company effectively if you don't deal in truth.

Some of his videos have seemed quite bizarre as well, quite sarcastic about concerns people have about AI in general.

And today it seems everyone will at YC hate him but pretend not


Had so much fun with this. Was able to get my favourite celebrities to warn me about things happening on this PC.


Pianoverse shows up in one of the tiles. Clicking on the piano keys in the tile produced tones!! Pianoverse is here, https://pianoverse.net/


Link to pianoverse.net tile, so satisfying to play with: https://webtiles.kicya.net/#875,125

I also created an interactive tile based on my vanilla-tilt.js library for my app: https://webtiles.kicya.net/#625,3875


These look very good.

I'd be interested to find out how biodegradable the non-paper parts are...

Has any thought been given to what happens if a kid swallows one of these batteries? I'm wondering if they're better or worse than swallowing a typical tiny cell battery.
