Re:RISC-V is now officially supported by CPython on Sunday August 30, 2026 @01:43AM (#49496015)
How is Python a dead language due to ML when it's the lingua franca of AI/ML between pytorch, pandas, numpy, langchain, litellm, vLLM, and a whole bunch of other libraries?
Re:UK Blocks Microsoft’s $69B Activision Deal on Wednesday April 26, 2023 @11:05AM (#35714817)
> Its extremely frustrating how we let the tech companies get to be this large, such that now we really have to consider blocking every acquisition, even though this one in particular I think wouldn't be all that bad and may actually be a positive for consumers.

As an avid world of warcraft player, the community as a whole has been hoping the merger goes through for exactly this reason. Activision has seemingly forced through a lot of bad changes over the years to try wring out as much money as they can.

I could be wrong, but it seems like it wouldn't be difficult to outperform these implementations with a similarly hacky C implementation. I expect that blog post in the coming days.
It's such a weird claim to make especially since the post indicates most adult gamers play casual games on their phones.
Re:Gold worth billions smuggled out of Africa on Wednesday April 24, 2019 @06:47PM (#19743298)
By which standard is this not news?
I'm curious how they took into consideration the fact that recent immigrants can often fall into the lower social classes while having many connections to family and friends in their home country. Edit: It seems like they didn't even look at the social class of the people they interviewed. They just focused on the GDP of their country which doesn't make any sense imo.

According to the article, they didn't actually tell him ahead of time what they were going to do to the car.
