Takeout always fails for me, with ~11TB of data in Google Drive.

I did not know!

Absolutely my bad it came across like this.

I’m not intentionally discouraging it.

The responses are affecting my impression of Microsoft and Github extremely negatively. I don’t think I am alone.

It’s already pretty word salad legalese in my opinion, at least from Github.

Yes or No: Hypothetically I put customer data in a private repo, a single file. I use copilot to analyze the file, submitting its contents to that backend. This is the only thing in the repo. Is that data collected and trained on? If the answer is not no, you are lying about what this opt in is.

There’s like 100 comments blaming raycast, they should just sue for damages lol.

That does sound like my experience…

Naively as a West Coast Verilog person, VHDL Delta cycles seem like a nice idea, but not what actual circuits are doing by default. The beauty and the terror of Verilog is the complete, unconstrained parallel nature of it’s default - it all evaluates at t=0 by default, until you add clocks and state via registers. VHDL seems easy to create latches and other abominations too easily. (I am probably wrong at least partially.)

Yep, and it looks like they sold 26 at that price - which they did not. They sold 26 at 10x less or so.

I believe many sellers an eBay are illegally manipulating the market, and eBay is tacitly helping them by ignoring and removing feedback.

For example this seller: https://www.ebay.com/str/disctechllc

“Accidentally miss-priced” a bunch of drives, and then instead of canceling the orders, refunded everyone, but still shipped packages: https://forums.servethehome.com/index.php?threads/enterprise...

I believe they intentionally did this, causing people huge import fees in some cases, in order to not remove the “26” sold on their listings that are now astronomically priced: https://ebay.us/m/mGRdiT

Edit: They also lied on their customs declarations (!)

Verilog to X compilers always bring me such joy. (There are several ones for Minecraft)

I wonder with the new Timberborn 1.0 update with automation if there’s enough to build a computer from water gates…

>Hope that helps

Honestly, what the fuck? This changes was already pretty bad but this being the apparent corporate response is insane.

Done with Github and Microsoft after this. Just disgusting how little you care for users, ethics, or morals.

Mmmm it is quite nice

It's not a Niche Museum but the Reykjavik Art Museum & Reykjavík Art Museum Kjarvalsstaðir both are amazing and worth a visit too, neither are far away in Reykjavik from the Phallological Museum.

Reykjavik is quite nice to visit! It's similar to Ballard, WA, where we have a somewhat niche Nordic Heritage Museum that very nice as well.

IMO the really good ones want to do both, teach undergrads and get them enthusiastic about their research, win win. This what happened to me, with FPGAs & the LHC of all things, and is hugely responsible for where I ended up in my career!

Learned rotations for INT4 are cool! Seems similar to SpinQuant? https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.16406

In my personal opinion I don’t think the 1.58 bit work is going to make it into the mainstream.

Not sure why you think fractional representations are only useful for training? Being able to natively compute in lower precisions can be a huge performance boost at inference time.

You can even train in 4 & 8 bits with newer microscaled formats! From https://arxiv.org/pdf/2310.10537 to gpt-oss being trained (partially) natively in MXFP4 - https://huggingface.co/blog/RakshitAralimatti/learn-ai-with-...

To Nemotron 3 Super, which had 25T of nvfp4 native pretraining! https://docs.nvidia.com/nemotron/0.1.0/nemotron/super3/pretr...

This is a thing! For example, https://arxiv.org/abs/2511.06516

Lightroom doesn't even process IQ4 150 (RGB) files correctly either, there's in back calibration that is missing, resulting in a bunch of lower right corner amp glow(?).

Capture One with the same back is fine/the back went to Japan to get repaired only a few months ago and has a brand new main controller board/calibration...

Also there are the Phase One Achromatic backs. Which Lightroom does not even support :(

Yep a physical print is a totally different experience too, compared to an image on the screen.

With good printing software like imageprint RED/Black (NB very expensive and overkill for most) you can actually see the effect different papers, settings, and lighting will have before the print. Very fun!

Fully agree, a hint should be at most about which subjects to focus on - and ideally that’s something they said in class too.

For sure - I think my definition of an exam hint is more like, study these subjects or “yes, data structures of some kind will be tested, but don’t worry about sorting algorithms.”

Not specific hints or answers, that’s obvious favoritism

With all empathy that sucks and is not fair - but should office hours be removed because one student could not attend?

Many of the professors I have worked with that I respect have different methods for helping these students- for example sending them an email after class, offering explicit direct help & advice. Or connecting them with a better job, or a research position.

Every professor has their own style, most of the ones I had were very open that office hours were a pretty great way to get help/more targeted hints on what to study. This isn’t in my opinion, a problem. Their goal is to educate you as best as possible in theory, via classes, homework, and office hours. Students who take the time and effort to attend office hours clearly want to at least pretend to be putting in extra effort, so why wouldn’t they out more effort into helping them learn? I doubt that they are directly giving away test answers.

It’s LLM slop and very shallow, in my opinion.

Very well could be.

It’s a play on Taylor Swift lyric I think - “Cause, darling, I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream“ (Blank Space)

Basically every ml script I see has 42 as the default seed, even before LLMs. Pretty sure it was what I used for my thesis code haha. So not surprising it always picks it.
