have you tried to purchase a device with RAM or a GPU in the last two years?

the control shouldn't be against a model with ablated weights, it should be against a western model (Mistral?)

it doesn't seem like there's an abundance of shovels coming anytime soon

The “obviously” here is puzzling. It is certainly obvious this would be better but it is not at all obvious how to do so.

This many levels of irony and insincerity and condescension just seem... not very useful? Why did you want me to read this?

It seems like a very lazy attempt to rebut the reasons. In particular:

"In this situation it isn’t the technology that takes the job, it’s the mode of production. And given that programming is intellectual work, the means of production is literally our heads, we ought to be able to seize those."

The word 'ought' is doing so much heavy lifting here...

The problem is that there is no out-of-band mechanism for update like other devices.

If your CA certs are bad on your mobile application, you can push an out-of-band update via the device's app store.

If your CA certs are bad on a website you access via your browser, the means of updating them is... the browser. You can't get new certs without using a TLS connection you didn't want to trust anyway.

Didn’t we already do this with the outsourcing debacle 15 years ago?

I really hate the way that LLMS design websites.

I think flipping the tiling between light and dark on the top left and the bottom right (or vice versa) would make more sense. Then bishops stay on one color and the knight always alternates between colors (like 2d chess)

i have learned a lot of interesting facts about haskell and lisp from this post. those facts make me want to run screaming away from trying to use either of them to develop software. My time with Haskell made me a better programmer and I bet that LLMs made some of the documentation more intelligible, but...

I would guess they are pricing them higher because the clientele are probably paying more.

What is the normal rent for a small room of that size in Ginza?

The finances of these metros rarely incorporate road costs; their accounting does not require them to incorporate the future liability for infrastructure maintenance and so everything looks good until they need to redo the roads.

Size or strength both depend on a ton if protein. I don’t know what your objection is.

I don’t think google should be held responsible for “breaking” this. It was crazy that one website got to see what i was doing on a second completely unrelated website.

I don’t know if you’ve tried to scrape or programmatically download a lot of websites recently! It’s not possible to repeat their data collection process anymore.

I cannot imagine a company or managee that engages in these practices being honest about them

Are you on Windows? I patched the original tufte fonts to fix these crazy kerning issues, but i have indeed noticed them.

It is a modified version of ET_Book called ET_Bembo:

A very fascinating read.

As a fellow tufte css enjoyer, Why is user select turned off on the sidenotes? I would like to be able to copy paste them quite badly.

more precisely, it is synecdoche!

Japan isn’t a federal government, so the decision can happen at the national level because prefectural and local governments zoning ability came from the national government.

I don’t think the federal government could de facto change this, though in practice they have levers available.

it chokes on my mac also

I agree with the general sentiment that the structure of society is going to change, but I don't know what the satisfying solution is. It's hard to imagine not participating will work, or even be financially viable for me, for long.

if an 1800 word post is just too long I think you are cooked. This is the nicest thing I can say on the subject.

Some of these fonts and transitions I like a lot, but sometimes it feels like there are a few too many fonts on screen.

I opened it, it told me it was impossible to build a house in california for less than 350K, i closed it

There was a healthcare strike that ended this month which counts as added jobs iirc

There is a CORS preflight check for POST requests that don't use form-encoding. It would be somewhat surprising if these weren't using JSON (though it wouldn't be that surprising if they were parsing submitted JSON instead of actually checking the MIME-type which would probably be bad anwyay)

Sure, but if I want to host my static files on a website where they are easily cached... cloudflare also offers this product?
