Hey @DennysDiner had a burger a few hours ago in Miami Beach and just woke up having to cover my mouth while rushing to the toilet to be violently sick. Obviously your food was contaminated. I’ve not been sick for years least of all woken up to be!


This is just getting embarrassing now we have ASICs

FFmpeg makes extensive use of hand-written assembly code for huge (10-50x) speed increases and so we are providing assembly lessons to teach a new generation of assembly language programmers. Learn more here: github.com/FFmpeg/asm-les…



In Miami you need to set aside an hour to get a Starbucks

the CIA literally discovered remote viewing, astral projection, telepathy, manifestation, all that jazz. they even declassified it. they just knew it was useless to them, because no matter how they tried they simply couldn’t change God’s Plan

These days *in particular* it's probably easier to refactor your code using AI to run in any environment than it is to deal with Docker images.

“Just use Docker” I’ve wasted more time on various Docker issues over the past few days than I ever did with any of my bare metal installations.

Whoa they’re pulling a Spinnup lol. I met with @unitedmasters at a senior level 3/4 years ago and they told me their pipeline was processing “trash” from artists at scale in order to put it through AI for training and major label A&R. All they ever said to artists was a lie.

How labour voters got from here (relatively sensible) to Starmer is on the face of it mind boggling but clearly institutional bias (Starmer being ex Director of Public Prosecutions etc… Rudy Giuliani effect.. advancing the politically incompetent).

I firmly oppose the government’s plans for compulsory digital ID cards. This is an affront to our civil liberties, and will make the lives of minorities even more difficult and dangerous. It is excessive state interference — and must be resisted.



For once he makes sense
