  My rule of thumb: Use ChatGPT for questions whos answer I already know.

  Otherwise it hallucinates and tries hard in convincing me of a wrong answer.

  You have to cut down carbs (rice, breads, ramen, pasta, noodles) and alcohol. If you want to go even further, cut down sugar and milk.

  I want to give you a mix of Redbull/Espresso and invite you to a Egyptology conference as a keynote speaker. And I mean it as a compliment.

  Wait, let me consult my pocket ASCII chart to check if I’ve been insulted.

  Okay, I tried it but didn’t work. 𓋴 is translated to S or Z. But others didn’t work. Both charmap and online failed.

  Um…not sure if I’m too old, too young or too poor, but what is the Miiverse?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The world's first foldable phone maker is now out of business⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The only usecase for foldables that made sense is that since phones keep on getting bigger, so having a foldable phone would save some pocket space. However, I think phones stopped growing after 6" and foldable phones have been considerably more expensive. People are just more comfortable with a normal “slab” phone.

  Game mode is way better than big picture because

  • support for decky loader
  • control system level settings from game mode itself
  • has gamescope which handles win32 game settings much better
  • disables other OS processes/the desktop and frees up resources (not sure about this)
  • control more things with controller instead of the touchscreen

  What kind of use-cases was it, where you didn’t find suitable local models to work with ?

  Any time you ask very domain specific questions; eg “i have collected some soil samples from the mesolithic age near the Amazon basin which have high sulfur and phosphorus content compared to my other samples. What factors could contribute to this distribution?”, both of-the-shelf local models & OpenAI fail.

  The main reason is because these models are not trained on highly-specialized domains of text. Sometimes the models start hallucinating and which reduces our trust upon them.

  I think mkdocs is easier than hugo but less flexible in terms of capability. However it serves all my needs (list of webpages accessible from a central frontpage)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Linus Torvalds reckons AI is ‘90% marketing and 10% reality’⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My company is realizing that hosting a model which will be private, cost-effective, and performing better than traditional algorithms is like finding a unicorn. Few months back, the top execs were jumping around GenAI like a bunch of kids. Fortunately, the Sr. research head beat some sense into them.
