Of course it's a meme and yet I want to comment this. Because I disagree with the premise. Your first responsability is to yourself, taking care of your needs. And resting might as well be one of those.

    set the server as git remote and push there directly. set hooks to deploy. I do that for a static site. Is my little iac solution. Search for alternatives to "infrastructure as code". It can go from simple dockerfile to swarms or kubernetes..

    I liked some proposals. I will certainly use LLM far more, and i/o too. But that's me, I have a preference toward technical terms that are already established. Finding new ones is a challenge. Specialy since they get permeated by our own biases. Or at least that's what I felt when reading their proposal to replace ai agent. I believe the agency of that system is there, so why not just llm agent? :/

    Wtf. These pigs are slippery, they got support from orban, erdogan, and slovakia. Now France and Luxembourg joined that network?? I don't understand, so I'll be looking forward to see how this develops... :/

    Edit, to add detail from the note. They're estimated by Forbes to own 13bn and 16bn each. With corporations and being intertwined with kremlin and russian state assets. So, this is major.

    Tiling windows managers? I had a glorious i3 config once, and not long ago installed regolith on the ubuntu machine at work. Soon, on my laptop, I will try Noctalia with either Umbria or Niri.

    Github holds plenty of examples to bypass chinese great firewall. I would say you use a vps and set up those proxyies, a while ago it was shadowsocks. Today, idk. Maybe amneziawg. Not sure if you can make the clients work on windows 7, in any case just get a travel router set it up there and use that as the filter to your connection. Break down the problem into pieces. And yes, that router and/ or vps will have Linux (:

    I wonder if any major project has had forks because of their inclusion or exclusion of AI.

    And I'm unsure if that's positive or not. Maybe it is because it can accommodate the needs and wants of everyone. But then again there's division and all this tension. The polarization is too much right now. And it may even grow further, as the AI enticement becomes deeper with cheaper, smarter, whatever may happen... Meanwhile, oligarchs are enjoying their Datacenters and pushing their agenda for surveillance and control or even monopoly of one voice, the voice of AI, that holds "the truth" with examples as whatever you get when asking DeepSeek about Tiannamen square. And chatgpt may have blindspots of their own that we are yet to see.

    What I'm trying to say is that the political debate is bigger than what any community can really hold without accepting a certain degree of heterogeneity.

    [...] We should heed the wisdom of the late Carl Sagan that extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence: the claims from Coxon and his ilk are the most extraordinary a technologist can make, and we must demand evidence commensurate with the claims. That said, we should not expect the public to understand LLMs, critical infrastructure, bioweapons, extinction biology, etc. — that burden must lie with those making the claim. The lesson that I learned (shamefully) decades ago is that domain experts, by way of their expertise, implicitly hold the public’s trust — and we must not abuse it. It is incumbent upon us to be circumspect in our claims — and maximally so when raising the alarm.

     

    Hallo, ich bereite mich gerade auf die theoretische Führerscheinprüfung vor. Hat jemand vielleicht ein PDF oder ein E-Book? Die Fahrschule hat mir Unterlagen auf Deutsch über eine App geschickt, die ich nicht so einfach übersetzen kann (es wären 300 Screenshots). Deshalb benutze ich für diese Nachricht einen Übersetzer. Die Prüfung selbst werde ich in meiner Muttersprache ablegen. Vielen Dank im Voraus!

     

    Apparently Gemma 4 (by deepmind) are very energy-efficient for their capabilities.

    The post itself seems to recommend a company (neuralwatt.com) but it's unrelated to project wagtail (an open source CMS made with django) so I consider it legit, they're just vouching for this new approach that shows users their ecological footprint basically.

    (Of course, running these at a homelab is possible. hence the relevance of this info for the community)

     

    I've just found the project. And it seems very interesting take. I am adding a link to their blog entry discussion on a system to combat LLMs abuse via a web of trust.

    From their site:

    We envision a place where developers have ownership of their code, communities can freely self-govern and most importantly, coding can be social and fun again.

    OpenClaw [AI] simultaneously addresses two massive psychological needs in China today: for the employed, it’s a perceived “cure” for overwork; for the unemployed, it’s a new opportunity outside of the usual delivery and ride-hailing grind.
