- Comment on Google unveils AlphaCode 2, powered by Gemini 11 months ago:
I’ve recently been getting into programming for work. Which of course has got me trying to learn more about AI. I’m still a super amateur. I started with bing AI cause that free gpt4 access and bypassing the 4k character limit by telling bing not to reply until I’m done. Now I’m primarily using free plan of phind and its vscode extension. Which I really like. I don’t use the buttons that write code as I always write code myself and rarely copy paste. Helps me learn. I just like that it’s quicker without crazy character limits.
I did recently see that you can pay for bing AI in VS code. Then it got me thinking if I’m gonna pay then I want to make sure it is for something good and prob not Microsoft. So considering paying for phind but now I am trying to look into what others are doing. There’s a world of products I’ve never heard of like hugging face. So I guess it’s time to start my journey on finding which one works best for me. I’ve recently degoogled myself so haven’t really touched bard but if Gemini proves worth it I may.
Just rambling thoughts from a self taught noob programmer.

I don’t think they implied that they would switch to Apple. They just want off android so bad they can’t wait for the new Linux mobile OS

From what I have read regarding RCS it seems you are not wrong. I also read the tech it’s based on is ancient.
- Comment on FCC to propose a minimum 100mbps to qualify as broadband, with a future goal of 1gbps 1 year ago:
It does look like the prices changed recently. I have 2 houses currently with similar plans. My currently living in house is using the Xfinity modem and costs $25 /m but I guess that’s the modem and the unlimited so not too bad.
My other house has my own network system and not using any Comcast hardware and that one is $30/m.
The bad part for me was until recently they refused to give me unlimited (when it cost $50) and I wasn’t able to get it for a while. It just wouldn’t go through. I got my fair share of overage charges cause of it. I’m sure if I spent enough time bitching at support I could get something from it but I don’t have it in me to do that lol
- Comment on FCC to propose a minimum 100mbps to qualify as broadband, with a future goal of 1gbps 1 year ago:
Comcast has been doing this for over a decade I believe. By default their routers advertise a hotspot exclusive to other Comcast subscribers. Not sure the security behind it since it’s not technically a password just authenticate via your Comcast account. But I agree it is crazy lol I had a similar reaction when I first found out.
- Comment on FCC to propose a minimum 100mbps to qualify as broadband, with a future goal of 1gbps 1 year ago:
Yeah states with Comcast caps you at 1.2TB unless you pay $50 for the unlimited plan, which I don’t think is even offered everywhere. They discount it to $30 if you use their modem.
- Comment on Tinder-owner Match issues dour forecast; shares tumble 1 year ago:
So true. I am happy I met my SO on tinder. Doing that data chart to see the numbers of my using tinder vs the only match who I went on a date with. The numbers are not in our favor. Now didn’t they release a 500/m plan? It is crazy. I know how lucky I got.
- Comment on Self Hostable Alternative to Galarm? 1 year ago:
I too would like to know. I use the app Due on iOS. And it is nice and not a sub (though after 1 year you technically need to buy it again IF you want features that released into the app after 1 year of your purchase.
It’s also iOS only.
Just googling around I found Apprise and Mind might look into that (don’t know enough to say if it’s a viable alternative to Galarm or Due

- Comment on Google Wallet on Android adds support for three more state IDs 1 year ago:
Why is it creepy? Apple is trying to do this with iOS too. I’d love to not need to care my ID now that I barely even need a wallet anymore. Though now that I started using sling backpacks I am back to carrying a wallet more often lol

- Comment on NVIDIA GPU on a docker headless system 1 year ago:
Yeah thankfully I use Arch Linux. Their wiki guide was much better.
- Comment on NVIDIA GPU on a docker headless system 1 year ago:
I used the desktop drivers as well (on arch from the extra repo) for my headless arch server.
Regarding nvidia container toolkit once it was installed I added this to my Jellyfin docker compose:
deploy: resources: reservations: devices: - driver: nvidia capabilities: [gpu]
- Comment on NVIDIA GPU on a docker headless system 1 year ago:
Once you do get the drivers installed properly as per your OS, here are the steps to give docker access to it: docs.nvidia.com/datacenter/…/install-guide.html
If you are using arch then the whole process can be found on the arch wiki. wiki.archlinux.org/title/docker#Run_GPU_accelerat…

Yup! Poisonous though. I’m not saying to try them but I’m not not saying to try them. They are called “laughing gym” for a reason.
This mushroom is known to induce uncontrollable laughter and unconventional behavior when ingested.

- Comment on Finding a Tech Job Is Still a Nightmare | WIRED 1 year ago:
Im so scared to get a layoff. I have no college experience but have been at my job for 7 years and now I get to do consulting and coding I love my job. We’re also a new team (specific for API projects) and if we can’t prove our worth quickly I see layoffs in my future. I have no idea what I’ll do if that happens.
I wish you the best of luck with finding something. It’s even harder with some of these big companies dropping work from home. My current job is 100% remote

I too prefer to read text posts over articles or videos. But I guess it depends what you follow? My home feed doesn’t have as many articles or videos. Memes sure but I did sign up for that.

Wife is a flower lady and she says watering once a week is toooo much. Once every other week if even. Is your pot draining properly? Or retaining too much water?
