Crap : Double Post

For most of the basic tier uses I have for an LLM Gemini seems to work great. For me Grok is "advanced search built into x.com" I will admit I use almost no "Traditional search" where I have to then go click on links to figure out if they're a moderate match and rely more on the AI summaries...

I'm getting ready to get unpopular at my work (which is fully at the "We're attaching performance review metrics to how much you use AI" point) because I'm about to showcase this and a litany of the horrible things our non technical folks are doing with it. Such as putting together technical...

I know, and I've been tinkering with those so far. I'd just like more fluid response ,which this seems to deliver. Another topic for the day. Seems the more context we give LLMs the worse they hallucinate. https://arxiv.org/abs/2603.08274 TLDR; - Under absolute optimal scenarios LLMs still...

I've read stuff about this concept for a while and from a few sources. Essentially many consider getting good LLMs to run on the hardware that's already cheap and ubiquitous has been a major goal for a while, which makes sense. For me personally, if this works as advertised and is accessibly...

Interesting angle, I'm looking for where one can find this to tinker with it...

IIRC they took a tiny piece of bone from up top when they were putting in the anchor for the top implant, (i.e. from my sinus area) and then planted it in the bottom. Believe it or not, after the half a year delay in the middle of proceedings due to my kidneys I am still waiting for the last...

OK, here is the one I got from Sams here in the US : https://www.samsclub.com/ip/FoodSaver-14-Piece-Starter-Kit-with-Vacuum-Seal-Roll-and-Bags/13577351872?classType=REGULAR Around $100 USD , but it's been a work horse for YEARS now so I consider it a solid investment. I can now shop around...

I'm in a situation right now that sounds like a ton of the conversation here. I'm in a job I know I could coast at probably for a good while, at least a few years, and be close enough to call it a career and do part time and consulting until official "retirement." But it's basically draining...

It's like how we tell people "If you like Game of Thrones.. when it gets to the scene showing her sailing across the sea with her dragons, just STOP WATCHING. That's all there is in the show." Or "There was only one season of Westworld."

We can't have a functional, useful, heroic pivotal character be stable, competent, MALE, and Straight on top of that? Damn.. Have you not read the lore guide for modern WoW?

This is gonna be a slightly long post, so buckle up, or scroll on traveler, your call. Having now done Arator's story line in the expansion here's my review. It's pretty standard "the cause I have always fought for might just not be as pure as I thought" crisis story line, with some severe...

Smoke detector chirping Change batteries Smoke detector continues to chirp It's a Nest one, so check the nest app. Says the CO sensor only lasts 10 years and it reaching end of life. I figure I have a CO alarm already, so no worries, it will just be a smoke detector. Read more. Nope, once the...

Yeah, getting a "She Boss Bonnie and Clyde" feel off it all. Might check it out on streaming or on the high seas...

Apparently on Twitter a bunch of fast food joints are throwing shade at one another for engagement fodder.. a highlight...

I''m experiencing the opposite... I have no party affiliation registered, and I have gotten both solicitations to pay me to phone bank for democrats, and warnings about every evil thing the democrats are going to do unless I vote Hard R.

New life goal unlocked....

Eventually we'll have AI for this....

This gave me a "sensible chuckle" but then I realized, in my whole life I have never once taken an antacid..... And I eat like an 11 year old at Cici's...

Saw this today.... This one in particular was a full metaphorical drop kick in my junk...

I was 7, it's literally the first film I have a memory of seeing in a theater. Although I'm sure my grandmother took me to some number of disney films when I was a wee Haus, don't remember a single one. Star Wars, OTOH, was etched into my young brain....

Yeah, 1977. My uncle took me to it because he heard it was going to be a cool movie and wanted to score some "cool uncle" points. And I will admit, it was foundational to how I developed from that moment on. At that point in time NorthPark 1 was the place all the BIG premiers in Dallas hit...

First "serious adult sci-fi" book was Starship Troopers. All because I had a TRS-80 color computer and got this game : First SciFi movie was Star Wars... On opening day... at Northpark I.

It's Saturday.. I saw this.. now you must as well.. Damn Twitter embed hating me.... (Remove the space if you're brave enough) https://x. com/3DrakaiNa/status/2025342164666908923

So it looks like the banks win, and we lose. No yield on stablecoins.

I remember the wife and I watched Season 1 and I absolutely loved it. Then for whatever unexplicable reason we never even started season 2 and the more I read the happier I am that in my head this show ended with Season 1. The same way I tell people with GoT, "Watch this series until you see...

"tell me you have a foot fetish without telling me you have a foot fetish..."

Snyk and Wiz are predominantly CPSM and Code verification, they won't do a ton to regulate how much you do or don't abuse AI in the process and if it's going bad. They're both good at what they do, but they're just now pivoting towards the AI reality. (Which to be honest is true of just about...

Why try to break into a sinking ship?

Guy who works in Cybersecurity here.... There are tools for this, we sell a set of them. We refer to it as "Code to Cloud" security. To go everywhere from code generation, to securing workloads in prod environments. This includes data used in conjunction with AI, and identifying which AI...

And to be honest he's still not... Spider Noir would be Spiderverse attached.

OK. I was unaware of this one over here and put this in politics, but better here...

Yep... you nailed it essentially. Or as an old VP of product at a former employer once told me : Never build your product on someone else's platform.

Mostly it has to do with how microservices and cloud architecture are different. When the first companies tried to "move to the cloud" they just took their existing servers, and mimicked them in VMs running in the various cloud providers (called "forklifting", or "lift and shift"). They...

Yeah, problem being one of the only companies I hate more than MS is Apple. heh I wonder what's out there possible in the range of : 16G+ ram minimum i7 ~1tb SSD Touchscreen Linux Compact and lightweight. (I like my personal devices to be on the small and svelt end of the scale...) Initial...

So...... after almost 10 years my Surface 4 Pro had it's battery go south (wouldn't charge, swelled up, popped one edge of the screen away from the frame). And I'm pretty sure I killed it attempting to ever so delicately do the brain surgery needed to replace the battery. I really did like...
