binary132··on The result of the C++26 DIS ballot
I think it is a good thing that the system is working.
binary132··on DeepSeek just open-sourced its inference engine
Need to see a Strata style take on this.
binary132··on JDK 28
JIT + hotspot optimization makes JVM pretty fast, but warmup time is usually the problem. However it does look like they’re addressing startup time with improvements in this release:

- AOT compilation: https://openjdk.org/jeps/544 - ~100ms startup for ZGC: https://openjdk.org/jeps/545

binary132··on Meta confirms smart glasses were recording without being activated
Problem glasses doing problematic things.
binary132··on Show HN: Llmspeed – feel how fast a local LLM runs before you buy the hardware
This is not accurate, I get like 80t/s on Q3.8 27b UD Q4_K_XL on my 4090 with 3 drafts and about 110K context window, sim shows mid 20s
binary132··on C++26 Contracts: Introduction to Preconditions and Postconditions
If someone wants contracts in C++, now they can just keep using C++. Which is good, because a lot of people and projects are stuck with C++, so the actual question is merely: can you have contracts in your project or can’t you?
binary132··on If AI is conscient, then we are making slaves
To be fair, it is actually less egregious if you’re translating. I have never heard or used this term in my life as a native speaker, so it is a surprising usage.
binary132··on If AI is conscient, then we are making slaves
Have you ever in your entire life used the word “conscient” until now? (not “conscious”!)
binary132··on Anthropic Bans Cruelty to Claude, Still Won't Say What It Protects
what would make you think that such a creature would consider your behavior anything like a moral good, let alone have a similar system of values to yours? if anything it would probably consider it a sign of weakness or something.
binary132··on Unikernels were hard. key word: were
I’ve always thought there should be a module-level safety property in the type system such that unsafe would be a capability granted by the user’s code.
binary132··on Nvidia in talks to acquire US 'open' model startup Reflection AI
Citizen Kane type stuff
binary132··on If AI is conscient, then we are making slaves
The use of the word “conscient” here is so pretentious I could scream.
binary132··on Rewriting Prime Agent in Rust
Convenient yes, but also not just a rust thing!
binary132··on Anthropic bans 'abusive or cruel behavior' towards Claude
Their marketing is insanely obnoxious.
binary132··on DOOM, simulated and rendered inside the Firebird SQL database using WASM
TIL about Firebird, so thanks for that!
binary132··on Why Common Lisp is now the best programming language
not so classical after all I guess
binary132··on Why Common Lisp is now the best programming language
If Java is fast, why are Gradle and Spring slow?
binary132··on High Diesel Prices Bankrupted 16 Trucking Companies in Just 30 Days
You people who think this is a great thing really need to put more thought into what you propose as the migration to your better future, because what it looks like to everyone else is that you’d really love them not to able to afford heat, rent, and groceries
binary132··on The mental health of young men is declining. Experts warn it could get worse
Programmer in the room, meet bikeshedding senior UI/UX designer in the room
binary132··on Writing code by hand is over, forever
I don’t care, I’m still gonna do it
binary132··on Vx – One Language, Every Chip
typesystems can be considered a kind of static analysis
binary132··on ADHD, autism or complex trauma? [pdf]
I’m sure a lot of people seeking an ADHD / Autism diagnosis after “discovering” they “totally have it” after seeing a video on social media do not in fact have ADHD / Autism.
binary132··on US killer's sentence quashed because of AI video of victim shown in court
There is no way I would have been able to identify this as sarcasm on this board without the sarc mark, so thanks for that, I was getting upset
binary132··on City building games have a Soul Problem pt.2
I don’t really think aesthetic details can create soul where there is no soul. Somehow I can’t imagine a world where games cost millions of dollars to produce yet also have soul mechanically injected by following some art director’s design-language protocol.
binary132··on I'm the mom in that viral Giants clip. Let me tell you about my husband
Wow. That brought tears to my eyes. What a wonderful and upstanding woman. So many people — both men and women — would jump at the opportunity to play the victim card and amplify their private resentments against their spouse to glorify themselves when they got the spotlight like that. Instead she displayed immense character and honor in defending her husband. All of us should take a lesson from her example.
binary132··on The new CC, an AI agent built for families
One thing I kinda like about the slop era is that it’s not so hard to clone apps like this to run entirely on local LLMs
binary132··on Wall Street is growing skeptical of the data center boom
It blows my mind that anyone hasn’t grasped that the token pricing game is a race to the bottom forever.
binary132··on AI coding has made CI a bottleneck, so we reworked ours to keep up
osdev is golden, truly. hope you survive the slopocalypse without too much difficulty
binary132··on AI coding has made CI a bottleneck, so we reworked ours to keep up
AGI any second now
binary132··on Show HN: Sunk Cost – How long until a local LLM rig pays for itself?
The real question should be why anyone would voluntarily continue to spend money on a software service that costs as much as an expensive computer when they could just buy an (upgradeable) expensive computer and use it as much as they want, approximately forever.

Imagine owning nothing and being happy.
