So we're moving from meme-stocks to meme-mergers now. Surely a sign of a healthy market.

Steam for steam, Heroic for Epic and GOG. Works well for me.

Can confirm. Back when I worked with a team of exclusively CS degree holders every day was a nightmare. Not only were their "solutions" absolute garbage, they were also totally convinced of their genius. Strong Dunning Kruger vibes throughout, it was so exhausting.

Oof, that's not a good look for a supposed intellectual.

This: just plain old "search" often yields better results. The information is out there and it's not hard to find.

Apparently we're evolving from grift to ai-enabled "hypergrift". From the outside it's actually fascinating to watch how the regime is brazenly plundering America's remaining wealth.

Microsoft sees this trend as well, hence this "K2" announcement.

Whatever it is, I'll buy it.

Don't get your tech reporting from The Guardian. This headline is so stupid. They can't help but anthropomorphize LLMs, because they just don't known any better.

Microsoft is trying to find out how little they have to deliver before customers start evaluating alternatives, just like a good monopolist should. With their Office suite that can be very, very little, the lock-in is ironclad.

This article is good, a rare exception in the current discourse around LLMs.

I just received information by my city today that a rather big street close to me will be completely reworked. All street side parking spaces will be removed to make space for larger cycling and pedestrian paths. In the same mail there was information about extended fixed station car-sharing offerings, for those times when you actually need a car. There is always one in comfortable walking distance.

See? It's no so hard. People voted for this and now they're getting it. I love my town.

I bought a nice sweater from the ESA merch store and now I'm looking for more euro-centric apparel. Give me your recommendations, it can be from any EU country and doesn't have to be state sponsored, but it should be official, no bootlegging. I'm really open to a wide variety of suggestions. European companies, institutions, even will known brands, if it's clearly European I'm interested.

This video came up in my recommendations randomly and now I'm fully on board.

I recently discovered hledger and setup importing for all my accounts over the course of a weekend. The clarity is amazing and it's changing how I view my finances.

All that's missing is a community around this fantastic tool, since it's got incredible depth. So here it is!

Money - it is quite important.

I discovered the world of plain-text accounting and specifically hledger just recently. With some perseverance I managed to import a whole year of transactions for just one bank account and it's already eye-opening.

It is also a real rabbit-hole, hence this community.

I always hear the ai companies clamoring for gigawatts of "compute" so they can finally "grow" due to the immense "demand". But somehow people can just start up clawbot and burn through millions of tokens just fine, I never hear about anyone being denied access to LLM usage. The same for businesses, they're being sold ai crap left and right and there is never a bottleneck or a queue. In fact, there seems to be plenty of "compute" to go around, far more than needed, really.

Has this ever been pointed out to the ai CEOs? Has this been discussed or explained?
