I use it to give me focus-follows-mouse and to have a large circle surrounding the mouse when i move it, to aid finding it.

Can i get it in pdf form, or at least, can i get a copy of the epub, instead of being helf hostage to a proprietary reading walled garden like Amazon. Does Nook allow you to download the epub file? But, I’d prefer pdf.

Didn’t Cerebras announce a deal with OpenAI recently? Perhaps they need the resources for that contract…

It’s about time.

If i wanted to do a motherboard that held 16 or 24 raspberry-pi compute modules, could i connect them together using the onboard gig ethernet without using any magnetics? Just by using the gige output from the module going to a commercial switch chip.

This is a great movie. Spacey is great but Jeremy Irons is fantastic. I really like the speech where he says "Speak to me like I was a golden retriever."

I remember when my mom used to hold Tupperware parties.

I guess they could go door-to-door selling backup or maybe hold Backblaze parties…

I think Backblazes pricing model is unsustainable and expect them (and any competitors who mimic their model) to eventually fail when the money runs out. Racks and racks of disk drives use a lot of power and cost a lot to keep running. A better model would be storage based on tape; one of those large tape libraries (e.g. iceberg) with nearline disk space. Most of the data that gets uploaded never gets accessed, so keeping it on tape instead of spinning rust makes sense. Sure, there’s tradeoffs, but imagine how much they’d save if they could downsize their data center spending by 90%.

I think part of the reason is that they want to be able to track the images back to you. Some person in the company is probably worried that a user will generate child porn like images and distribute them on the net. When the cops eventually come calling, they want to point to the user. This probably means there is a user-id embedded somewhere in the image.

What’s a typical Epic installation. Does it run on a single server? A cluster?

All the wood behind one arrow…

Otherwise known as ‘colon blow’…
