Thanks. I like low profile mechanical keyboards in theory but I guess I'll just stick to the Keychrons and Lofrees.

Many ISPs block .cc domains. Especially when .co.cc was a free domain name thing and tons of malware would use it.

Teenage Engineering makes a lot of products that are basically just a grid of buttons and knobs. It's an obvious comparison to make, even if you disagree on the style/soul etc. Like the OP-1 is also a rectangle of buttons, and even the style of the keycap itself can draw some comparisons (it is a rounded square with a circle in it and an abstract symbol on it): https://teenage.engineering/products/op-1

You could probably easily get Codex (CLI) to vibe code Linux support tbh. It's probably just a regular USB HID device. The main problem is that right now it only works with the GUI Codex App which doesn't have official Linux support.

What's wrong with it? I believe you but I'm just curious... since on paper it just uses Gateron low profile switches which seems reasonable.

How come all the open source projects are fretting over the copyright status of LLM code but big companies are just vibe coding slop all day for their internal closed source projects without a care in the world?

If not inlined, subresources can fail to load for all kinds of network reasons.

Also, it's commonly recommended to load fonts asynchronously/deferred without blocking the main page render. But I HATE it when the page jumps around as it cycles through different fonts before the real one loads. I'd rather get dinged on PageSpeed insights with "Requests are blocking the page's initial render, which may delay LCP. Deferring or inlining can move these network requests out of the critical path." rather than have everything popping about for the first second. Is it just me?

I thought this had something to do with the DGX Spark at first from the name haha. (Incidentally, a lot of recent work has gone into making the DGX Spark better at inference, like MTP yielded a 50-100% speedup, so DSpark will likely be very helpful to that end as well)

What's edge masking and what am I looking at? I clicked through several of the options and I don't see any difference. There just seems to be a really basic gradient shadow.

I have gpu enabled in google chrome (verified by visiting chrome://gpu) on Chrome/149.0.7827.155 on Linux.

Pretty neat that you can just install it and start using it (at a Sonnet 4.6-level model) without needing to sign in or pay.

Typically, Chinese websites are a big pain to log in or sign up because they require a +86 phone number due to legal reasons. Being able to use it without having to make an account is amazing for friction reduction. I could probably even just install it onto new machines to help with set up.

I wonder how they are gonna detect and block abuse though?

Mildly annoying how almost everything strips out EXIF data nowadays, in part due to security concerns like this, and then I can't find out what camera, lens, and settings were used to take photos.

A lot of prompt engineering goes out of date quickly. Nobody nowadays goes "you are an expert software engineer. make no mistakes" lol.

As a personal anecdote, I find that a lot of big prompts and skills use up context window budget and in many cases agents will eagerly try to use a skill even if it isn't super relevant or necessary for the current task. So when I have too many skills I have to spend a bunch of time toggling the checkboxes to figure out which ones are needed for the task at hand before starting...

Lots of comments are expressing skepticism about compatibility but it's pretty cool how Nvidia has the clout to convince a bunch of game publishers and creative apps to release Arm versions. Popular games like League of Legends as well as stuff like Adobe Photoshop and Premiere are getting native Arm ports.

Over 100 Windows software providers such as Adobe, Blackmagic Design, Blender, CapCut, ComfyUI and OTOY, and game developers such as KRAFTON, NetEase, Remedy Entertainment, Riot Games and XBOX are embracing the new RTX Spark platform. [...] NVIDIA is partnering with Adobe to rearchitect Adobe Premiere and Photoshop for RTX Spark. [0]

Gaming on Arm is finally coming of age thanks to the NVIDIA partnership. Native anti-cheat solutions from Epic and BattlEye are fully supported on the RTX Spark platform. Major developers are jumping on board, with Riot Games bringing League of Legends and Valorant natively to the architecture, alongside KRAFTON bringing PUBG Battlegrounds. [1]

Also, Nintento Switch is an Nvidia/Arm gaming device so many game publishers already have some experience with the combo.

technically in order for something to be turing complete it needs infinite memory
