Young me would have loved to know that there was a cheat code in Ecco for the Mega Drive... I loved the vibes of the game but could never get far.

There's a chance that the real reason why they want to ban Chinese models is that they are so good at fixing bugs and preventing exploits that intelligence agencies have been using for espionage …

I don't know about Chatgpt but I used Kimi (they have a Chinese-only plugin that does desktop control - works fine if you enable it even if you don't know Chinese). Observing how it works, i…

I hope you are unsuccessful in your authoritarian, dystopian enterprise.

People have heuristics. My heuristics is that AI slop in images -> slop in the text, whether AI or not. It will be wrong sometimes, but mostly it's not. OP has a point.

I have been using Kimi for months. It did get superslow after the K3 launch, then they blocked signups and normalized the service. It's not ideal that people can't join but as a user I am ha…

The Linux kernel adopted Bitkeeper before git and it never spread out from there. It's not that many people working on the kernel. git growth was very symbiotic with GitHub growth. I don't r…

Thinking that they can fire people at will.

I asked the same and got something vaguely similar. Then I asked for a demoscene-inspired demo in a non-traditional setting. https://recherche-demo.kimi.page …

"non-fiction tells it how it happened" oh sweet summer child :)

"He was one of the founders of the governing People's Action Party (PAP), which has governed the country continuously since independence" Very democratic country.

The way how you manage the caps in OpenRouter is how every metered API provider should do it: keys have limits, and you can change the limits, and you set the limits to refill periodically, and you ca…

Not anymore than the US being able to strike worldwide to this very moment. They are the only country that has used nuclear bombs against civilians. The big problem is having one country be able to do…

I am old enough to remember that iPad was supposed to be a product-line-dooming bad name.

Your comment is absolute nonsense.

If there are extremely poor, high-trust societies, then trust is its own variable. If not, then it's a post-hoc explanation.

I use Kimi at home via a kimi.com subscription and Kimi CLI (sometimes running inside Zed, sometimes not). My favorite model by far. And it's just $20. I have to use a supposedly frontier model a…

Nethack runs as a setgid process that hides save files from users. Kind of old fashioned now that almost every Unix system is a single user system. There are still public servers for those that want t…

First impression: it has a tutorial, which should actually help increase the player base quite a bit. It comes with some movement quality of life (e.g. moving into a door opens it, moving into an obvi…

It is absolutely insane to say that Altavista was better than Google though.

Interesting Cuecat story: LibraryThing bought a massive stock of Cuecats and, 20 years later, they still sell them, repurposed to scan ISBNs from books for cataloging purposes: https://wiki…

Don't publish. You already notified them, your shell escape isn't a big deal, publishing it will only be a pain for the volunteers running the service.
