I almost forgot that HPSS was a thing, thanks for the reminder.

Every European country has fields that are not suitable for agriculture that could be used for livestock.

Because the process is the same. When you read a book you don‘t save it as a brain file, you form memories from it. Some people can recall verbatim bits here and there but I have never met someone regurgitating a book word for word. And I‘m pretty sure I can not ask ChatGPT to output the first chapter of Moby Dick word for word. I think that would be, rightfully, considered copyright infringement.

That is an interesting take. Now I probably can‘t unsee it.

No one has to suddenly be able to afford a new car. The phase-out of combustion vehicles is for new vehicles. Old cars can still be driven.

You can[1].
I’m vibe coding a little macOS OCR app since last weekend, and I’m really happy with the results so far. This is my first app, so fingers crossed. If it becomes feature-complete and polished enough, I’m considering open sourcing it. There’s still a long way to go, though.

When I remember correctly the non-docker install instructions were a bit buried on GitHub but Open WebUI runs fine in a venv.

It is because of merit order. The most expensive generator of energy sets the price for all the energy.

Reference counting is not tracing garbage collection. To also quote a Wikipedia Link:
„The main advantage of the reference counting over tracing garbage collection is that objects are reclaimed as soon as they can no longer be referenced, and in an incremental fashion, without long pauses for collection cycles and with clearly defined lifetime of every object.“

There are multiple translation layers in between the game and the GPU. I don’t think this is a fair comparison.

Not in depth. I’m just a user of Crossover, I haven’t had time to try Whisky.
I think sometimes Codeweavers incorporates fixes for certain games into the app updates. Especially for the Steam app, for example. These appear in the changelogs.
I use Crossover with CXPatcher because I then can use more up-to-date versions of DXVK and GPTK. The update cycle of Crossover is a bit slow for what is going on in that space right now.
