Sadly this site is not usable on mobile
xyzsparetimexyz··on My AI agents found an unmapped Maya site?
> It's not like people are prompting "Give me xyzsparetimexyz's book cover to cover".

They are literally doing that with slop game clones trying to beat them to market.

xyzsparetimexyz··on Jensen Huang resigns
Huang/Nvidia = House Atreides Lisa Su/AMD = House Harkonnen GPUs = Sandworms US Govt = The Emperor/House Corrino Smugging GPUs to China = Smuggling Sandworms off planet to try and break the spice monopoly

This event = some stuff that happens in book 2/ movie part 3 Stuff

> Is it theft?

Well we certainly didn't get paid for it, and now our livelihoods are at stake. So yes.

xyzsparetimexyz··on Nvidia is preparing to oust Jensen Huang
Fyi just calling something nuanced doesn't mean that it is.

> sleeping with a spy rather than just hiring an escort

I really don't like Jensen but I think this actually shows decent character! Sleeping with a femme fatale is rather romantic.

I'm pretty sure Germany is in a recession.

xyzsparetimexyz··on When will this stop? The Raspberry Pi 5 16GB SBC now sells for $385
> Most hobby use cases would be fine with the 1GB, 4GB, or even 8GB versions.

I'm sick and tired of this memory austerity. Don't go blaming consumers for issues that the ai companies caused. I should be allowed to want a 32GB rpi5 for €75.

xyzsparetimexyz··on Claude Fable 5.2 and Mythos 5.2
What is agy
xyzsparetimexyz··on Is Opus 5.5 nerfed? Thinking patterns changed on November 3
Yeah obviously but you can still control it.
xyzsparetimexyz··on The Web Is More Than Enough
WebGPU sucks compared to the desktop APIs. JavaScript and wasm suck compared to native code. Not being able to have threads for loading things like assets in the background sucks.

Yeah there's a ton of llm slop web games out there but anything serious is going to be a desktop application

auto reject, ask to split it up and minimize the diff.
xyzsparetimexyz··on Why I will not be using LLMs in my coding
If you don't look at the code, how do you know it's higher quality than ever?

xyzsparetimexyz··on GPT-Rosalind-6 System Card Addendum
Named after planet 6 in the Rosalind system right?
xyzsparetimexyz··on Postgres 19 is late because so many more bugs are being found now
No offense but this is not exactly a groundbreaking statement. We've known about this verifiable tasks thing for a while.
xyzsparetimexyz··on Digital minimalism
Exactly. Being able to log off to this a degree can be a bit of a privilege.
xyzsparetimexyz··on Anthropic blocks users for anything touching training larger models
One annecdote: I've been using opus 5.5 for decompiling a late 90s PC game based on an incomplete leak of the source code and haven't hit any kind of restrictions or push back.
xyzsparetimexyz··on ChatGPT and Codex usage limits merging
Why?
xyzsparetimexyz··on No AI, 52 min. Build all Linux Files utils in C by Hand [video]
Just like how IKEA furniture is plasterboard trash compared to the quality that we used to have with furniture (and can still get if we pay large sums), so has ai reduced code quality to this messy homogeneous pulp.

Oh god the ghibli ai art yellow is infecting the pelicans too now

Textures, voice acting, music, 3d models. Probably in that order.
xyzsparetimexyz··on Image generation has come a long way since August 2022
I vastly prefer (still slop) these over modern slop.
xyzsparetimexyz··on Claude Code regularly sends each background agent’s transcript to its model
Claude code has to be the worst harness I've ever used. Has anyone figured out how to rip the subscription auth/verification out so that it can be used within Pi yet?
