if you look at the last few weeks of commits, you can see they've been systematically ripping out everything bun-specific and moving to node

How can you possibly make any informed statement about the solutions AI generates for you if you don't understand them?

I use tmux, I have this exact same bug in tmux. It's part of why I use OpenCode and not Claude Code.

Yes, we should archive everything. And we should perhaps reform IP more broadly and re-think how we treat our culture. And we shouldn't expect retaliation.

But retaliation will happen, and I worry that it's going to pull down one of the most incredible archives along with it.

yeah no shit, this is what happens when you agitate the major music record labels - it's going to get worse

there's enough support for it across various things that it's not going anywhere

I'd recommend anyone looking at these three languages to give Odin a try.

Is this why I've seen a number of "AUP violation" false positives popping up in claude code recently?

ollama has always had a weird attitude towards upstream, and then they wonder why many in the community don't like them

It uses a video feed and asks you to look in certain directions. At least the one instance I've encountered did.

This seems reasonable to me, surely it should be its own repository.

I prefer btop, it does all the usual process monitoring as well as gpus in the latest versions.

New comment by Ycros in "Show HN: LLMs can generate valid JSON 100% of the time"

Ycros — Tue, 15 Aug 2023 03:55:09 +0000

Having played around with this sort of thing in the llama.cpp ecosystem when they added it a few weeks ago, I will say that it also helps if your models a) are tuned to output json and b) you prompt them to do so. Anything you can do to help the output fit the grammar helps.

New comment by Ycros in "LangChain Agent Simulation – Multi-Player Dungeons and Dragons"

Every time I look at LangChain it seems like unnecessary abstraction. The value in this example are the prompts.

This feels like it should be a charity or a non-profit entity.

The recently launched Playdate handheld gaming device uses a monochrome Sharp brand Memory LCD with no backlight.

New comment by Ycros in "Take the pain out of Git conflict resolution: use diff3 (2017)"

Ycros — Thu, 21 Apr 2022 01:34:13 +0000

The article suggests a good first step, but I recommend using a 3-way capable merge tool for an even better experience. 3-way merging with a reasonable UI should be the default, I don't really understand why it still isn't. It makes large and complex merges easy. My merge tool of choice was kdiff3 for the longest time, though these days I'm using Beyond Compare which is a commercial product.

No general framework will magically solve this problem, you need to tread carefully around the audio processing thread whatever you're using.

New comment by Ycros in "Why I will never buy another Samsung device"

Ycros — Tue, 22 Feb 2022 05:44:44 +0000

I was shopping for a new monitor recently, and I considered 3 different models from Samsung, and all 3 had so many complaints from users indicative of serious QA issues in at least their monitor division. I hope they sort their issues out, their products on paper at least, are compelling.
