Self-hosted Gitlab is great. A lot of the US government uses this via bigbang if familiar. Designing things with an "airgap" in mind and control of your services is paramount in today's AI rush of slop.
I use Niagra. So good once you get used to it.
Bro. I played what I consider a basic game, Inscryption, on my MacBook Pro M4 Pro with 24Gb and that thing sounded like an aircraft taking off. ...meanwhile the weak sauce Steamdeck plays it flawlessly. Fan hardly even spins up. There is a lot of work to do IMO on the Mac front. I doubt Apple cares.
When we cancelled, I found it interesting that there was no place for a comment. My back-of-the-napkin theory, in-line with this post, is that they don't want the data to be available for these shareholders with questions.
Corporate fuckery all around.
...and fatalistic attitudes like this are what erode our freedoms imo. if we don't try, then what?
Have you seen the pico8 software?
I think search and chat are decent products as well. I am a Google subscriber and I just use Gemini as a replacement for search without ads. To me, this movement accelerated paid search in an unexpected way. I know the detractors will cry "hallucinations" and the ilk. I would counter with an argument about the state of the current web besieged by ads and misinformation. If people carry a reasonable amount of skepticism in all things, this is a fine use case. Trust but verify.
I do worry about model poisoning with fake truths but dont feel we are there yet.
I can't even count how many times that I've had the DRY vs. verbosity of code conversation in trying to norm a team.
I'm in the camp of a little verbosity and repetition for the sake of clarity is worth it.
Also remote play is amazing!
Really? The logo is literally a cartoon and there is a more friendly version if you choose to look.
I suppose an overweight penguin is more apt for that audience. I digress.
I feel like you are correct while thinking Apple's stance is the smarter play. My family ditched the entire Amazon ecosystem because Alexa was so utterly useless. Keeping people generally happy and entertained creates a positive mentality on the entire company as a whole. Let me tell you, having the kids on board is huge and prob a missed opportunity. You could literally be training kids to be little Amazon shills if this was done right. Mine loved talking to Alexa and then she got less and less intelligent and we swapped to Google's products -- same story there. Now it is pretty much a weather-bot and that is all.

Am I missing something or is this a pile of dark patterns to drive you to a paid product?
Did you actually read the article? The conclusion is exactly what you state. No big deal. It's just a meandering and fun read. YMMV.
I use WSL2 on Win11 and it uses my GPU, no issues. I'm not a power user so YMMV.
...uh, everyone doesn't run a Mac? I run adn Nvidia GPU in Win11/WSL, so this should prove helpful in a running models that push my VRAM limits.
As long as the source is available, I always take the provided bins as a convenience versus a default negative attitude.
Just a thought as well in my corpo experience: Unfortunately, there are some spaces that distribute solutions as k8s-only... Which sucks. I've noticed this mostly in the data science/engineering world. These are solutions that could be easily served up in a small docker compose env. The complexity/upsell/devops BS is strong.
To add insult to injury, I've seen more than one use IaC cloud tooling as an install script vs a maintainable and idempotent solution. It's all quite sad really.
Kevin Mitnik was famously held for 4 and a half years before his trial. That's where I learned about this shitty practice.
Anyone else rocking the "Free Kevin" bumper sticker back in the day?
This and civil forfeiture stuff always has pissed me off immensely.
Turned off, yes. ...but at the same time, I am violently against greed and psychologically manipulative processes to acquire wealth. YT is insidiously screwing with peoples minds for profit. They can Fuck Off.
I do understand your point but would counter that, if done right, you can revert your last commit. :)
Curious -- in this scenario, who is doing security, governance, compliance, observability, etc...? You are probably masking a lot of benefits of a mature and competent IT team. ...or you are assuming A LOT of risk allowing velocity-driven software engineering teams to run amok.
This is patently false. Tons of Enterprise orgs use Alpine for security concerns, ease of administration, and size. I guess all those prod microservices existence is "insane".
Only Intel is support officially - https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208544 - Unclear why.
Being a corp slog nearly my entire life, it's good to stay open to all opinions. With that I say, that I have encountered piles of fraud with organizations in my career. They would buy a couple licenses of RHEL when their fleet was really CentOS and they would just lie on support calls. I think this is what Red Hat was getting at with all the "freeloader" nonsense. Tone deaf, yes. Wrong, not totally.
...continuing to be fair, Red Hat support has literally been the best I have ever used in my career. Hands down. I know I sound like a shill but I'm not. Just a reg ol' engineer. I've since moved on, like most, to cloud and past RHEL but it has it's uses. Cattle not pets for cloud!
The Bing version of ChatGPT does exactly this. It shows you the keywords on your prompts as well.
Did you read the article? It says 8...
Ikr. So hard to filter thru the trash. I find a nice guided semi-open world game is my jam. Disco Elysium. Last of us. Uncharted series. I do enjoy some of the tight metroidvanias as well. Dead cells. Ori. Etc... Happy hunting!
Was Dave Gahan left off purposely?
There is plenty of information. Perhaps not super relevant to HN but just not consuming the post is probably a better strategy.
