“United by loyalty”, it’s right in the headline.

I wonder if it’ll have turrets to fend off the Biters.

You realize the models you’re running locally had to be trained the same way as the proprietary ones, right?

They basically skipped cards and moved from cash to app transfers. QR code is a natural extension of the app to make contactless payments accessible.

I know how it works and I’ve seen coffee plants in real life. I didn’t know the fruit is called a cherry in English. They don’t look much like cherries apart from being red…

I guess you mean “berries”

I’ll do one better: UniGetUI. It handles Chocolatey, Winget, Python system packages and even other managers. All in a neat UI, nice search, auto updates.

I took up online tutoring and teaching programming for kids. It has great benefits:

• It’s an hour or so after work, it has a fixed schedule so it forces me to clock out
• it makes me focus hard so I completely forget about work
• it pays for itself (not my corporate day-job rate, but I’m not doing it for free)
• I can try out languages and tech I’d normally wouldn’t be able to in my day job, or I’d have to invest my free time for a side project
• I have a background in teaching… I like it, it’s fun and refreshing
• I’ve helped many kids jump start their interest in programming even in families that know nothing about tech at all. I’ve helped a few of them to get accepted to the school they wanted to and pursue a career in programming

All in all, teaching after work makes for a great hobby and a strong barrier for my day job so I don’t find myself working late anymore.

The requirement for Recall is a neural coprocessor with substantial performance, specifically to be able to run the model locally.

Oh but it is

Judging from the photo at least Intex seems to be doing quite well.

AFAIK the black hole in Interstellar is considered a fairly realistic representation (not SA* specifically though).

They even published a paper on it.

I didn’t, but now I do. Thanks, I guess.

I collect unfinished projects.

Getting a used mid-range printer is quite affordable. Or try looking for your local maker space, so you don’t have to buy your own. It’s never been easier to get into 3D printing than today.

Also, it’s quite easy to sell custom 3D prints. Thus it’s not that hard to cover the cost of materials (or even the printer itself).

I hate using Excel for this reason. ALMOST all functions are translated, so you’re never sure what to look for. If you find a solution for a problem online? Doesn’t work, you’d have to rewrite it in your language. And you can’t even switch the language in settings, because it’s tied to the OS language (maybe you can in recent versions, haven’t bothered to check for a while).

There’s OSTRAJava, a parody esoteric language based on a very specific regional accent of the Czech language.

Teaching programming for kids, 3D printing, photography, playing the saxophone, gaming (pretty much exclusively coop), playing board games.

I know it’s not a good advice, but having something very serious happen in your life might shift your perspective. In my case, getting (through) cancer made me realize it’s not worth stressing for stupid little things and greatly deepened my stoicism.

With current materials - an important detail.
