You would probably get a feeling of déjà vu.

Just a hunch from my side, Entropy and Survival of the Fittest strike me as the underpinning principles behind life in general. Since we know empirically that the universe prefers increasing entropy, I like to treat it as a “push” towards increasing the number of possible states (like a search space of sorts). Survival of the Fittest then acts as another “push” towards choosing the right configurations to thrive in any given environment.

With that description, I’d consider such forward planning to be inherently chaotic. Everything on earth (and the universe in general, though sparser) will end up affecting each other via common systems to some extent, so I say just let it loose and observe what happens.

AFAIK: Development at AMD funded the dev to make it support AMD GPUs (instead of the then-supported Intel GPUs), Dev keeps a clause saying any and all work will remain open even if contract is cancelled, work is then halted by AMD and dev releases his updates on his repo, Legal then says later that the clause was not legally binding and can’t be enforced or such, making dev rollback to earlier Intel version

It was initially intended to be a video stream handler, but they had concerns with audio syncing. They figured they might as well also handle audio in one cohesive AV server instead

I coulda swore NASA did account for that and wrote unit conversion subroutines, and that the bug was that a conversion was missed, rather than not knowing the unit mismatch at all

'tis how LLM chatbots work. LLMs by design are autocomplete on steroids, so they can predict what the next word should be in a sequence. If you give it something like:

Here is a conversation between the user and a chatbot. <insert description of chatbot>

<insert chat history here>

User: <insert user message here>

Chatbot:

Then it’ll fill in a sentence to best fit that prompt, much like a creative writing exercise

I doubt we’ll need a whole different OS for Quantum though. That’s like saying we need a whole separate OS for GPUs. I find it more likely that they’ll be yet another accelerator attached to an orchestrating CPU.

That might be more due to them not supporting HDR on Linux yet, but I’ll wait for someone else to confirm that

Oh man, moments like this when my faith in humanity is restored. I am sorry for your loss

source ~/.bash_history

I’ve rarely used CDs/DVDs but AFAIK it’s practically just a copy. Your PC can read the CD’s data, so it just saves that into a file

IIRC, it stands for “If I Remember Correctly”

I feel like that’d defeat the purpose of having redundancy in case the main instance itself goes down 🤔

Cuz I use them as a way to keep tabs (heh) on different projects I’m involved in. Tree tabs are much faster for me to organize into folders compared to bookmarks since they’re already part of my flow of using tabs in the first place :)

That being said, I end up using them more as a way to search through pages I had opened before, using the URL bar. Browser history is a little more finicky to search in that regard

As for how many I can close, I tend to close tabs once I’m done with something in a project (though some tabs I keep around if i find them to be useful beyond that specific project). I also have a bunch of tabs open for music and videos that I want to share with my friends when they get time which could be closed once I share them

I started with TST actually! I can’t remember the exact reasons but I thiiink I switched over to Sidebery for better/faster session restores

Had 300 on my laptop a while ago, finished up a project which let me drop it down to 160.

On my desktop I have 1,300 or so. Both of them on a single Firefox window with Sidebery

Oh that just made it click in my head why they would do it as sign, exponent, mantissa and not sign, mantissa, exponent. I mean yes I’ve been taught it’s for sorting purposes, but this really helped it fit better. Thanks!

Hearing you loud and clear from programming.dev :D
