The author is comparing old and new AI art models, finding the old ones more evocative and beautiful due to their imperfections. The new models are too precise and lack the creative gaps that allow imagination to breathe life into the art.
ARIN incorrectly allocated IPv4 block 23.150.164.0/24 to the wrong customer due to a manual inventory process error. The issue was resolved after the Original Customer reported the problem, and ARIN restored the block and issued a replacement to the correct customer.
shittp loads dotfiles via tar and POSIX shell, useful for Docker environments. It avoids two-stage SSH connections but may fail with large configs due to OS argument length limits.
Structured outputs from LLMs force models to prioritize output conformance over quality, leading to lower quality responses and potential security risks. Allowing LLMs to respond in a free-form style can lead to higher quality responses and better results.
Gerald Weinberg's problem definition has three approaches: change desired state, reframe current state, or decide not to solve it. Mastering tradeoffs and saying no to non-essential problems is key to success in startups and product management.

Edsger Wybe Dijkstra was one of the most influential members of computing science’s founding generation. Among the domains in which his scientific contributions are fundamental are In addition, Dijkstra was intensely interested in teaching, and in the relationships between academic computing science and the software industry. During his forty-plus years as a computing scientist, which ...
Anna's Archive released a 300TB music archive with 256 million tracks and 186 million unique ISRCs, representing 99.6% of listens. The archive is open and can be mirrored by anyone with enough disk space, aiming to preserve humanity's musical heritage.
Ruby has a vast collection of libraries and mature frameworks, allowing developers to build high-quality applications quickly. Its simple syntax, expressive features, and welcoming community make it a popular choice for programmers.
Young tanning bed users have more skin mutations than people twice their age, increasing their risk of cancer. Artificial UV radiation from tanning beds causes genetic changes that can lead to melanoma and other skin cancers.
Researchers measured AI performance by task length, finding an exponential increase over 6 years with a 7-month doubling time. This trend predicts AI agents will complete week-long tasks in 2-4 years, with significant real-world impact.
C# 14 introduces the field keyword which combines the flexibility of manual backing fields with the simplicity of auto-implemented properties. However, it comes with trade-offs such as potential issues with reflection-based libraries and the need to update code to use the field keyword correctly.
Track Bulgarian trains in real-time with live positions, delays, and routes on an interactive map. Проследявайте български влакове в реално време с позиции, закъснения и маршрути.
The author argues that self-hosting a database is a viable option, especially with the rising costs of managed services like AWS RDS. They claim that the performance difference between self-hosting and managed services is minimal, and that self-hosting offers more control and flexibility.
The history of aspirin is unclear, with many claims about its ancient origins based on incomplete or dubious evidence, and its actual development in the 18th and 19th centuries is more verifiable. The true story of aspirin's invention involves a chemist named Felix Hoffman at Bayer, but a Jewish chemist named Arthur Eichengrün also played a crucial role and was likely forced to remain quiet ...
Developers can use Claude Code to build and test in Chrome, enabling faster iteration on browser-based projects. Use Claude with caution, pre-approving actions and supervising it closely to avoid security risks.
Diarmuid Early, known as the "LeBron James of Excel spreadsheets," won the 2025 Microsoft Excel World Championships with a $60,000 prize. He defeated triple-world champion Andrew Ngai in the final and plans to use his skills in his financial business.
J.R.R. Tolkien's posthumous publication, The Bovadium Fragments, is a complete work that critiques mankind's obsession with motor vehicles. The story, written in the 1960s, uses satire to highlight the absurdity of traffic congestion and the worship of material possessions.
The Inca civilization's stonework was accomplished through a combination of collective strength, ingenuity, and coordinated effort of multitudes of workers, using techniques such as hauling stones with ropes and earthen ramps to reduce friction. The Inca masons crafted remarkable stone monuments using hammerstones for shaping and splitting rocks, with their process and techniques being the ...
I recently hosted a Streaming Media Connect panel titled “Benefits and Trade-Offs of Adopting and Implementing Codecs.” The contributors were Hassene Tmar from Meta, Behnam Kakavand from Evolution Gaming, and analyst Alex Davies from Rethink TV. The most striking information was not about future codecs. It was about what AV1 deployment looks like when real companies actually do it. You can ...

A few days before the tt8 deadline, i submitted two designs to the competition. the first was based on ripping art and music, the second was an audio donut - both of which failed to make it into the final cut despite being simulated in verilog vs. tinytapeout 8 is now available for pre-order from efabless.cc/tt8/devices/.
William Golding's Lord of the Flies explores the collapse of civilization and the descent into savagery, reflecting his disillusionment with rationalism and progress. His works often portray humanity's tendency to oscillate between progress and destruction, with characters drawn to novelty that ultimately leads to their downfall.
Use modeless elements like accordions and sliding sidebars to isolate interactions without losing navigation. Use inline "Undo" options or simple, accessible modals with clear close buttons instead of confirmation modals.
You created a basic battery holder design in Autodesk Fusion and recreated it in OpenSCAD to learn the basics of the new tool. The OpenSCAD code allows for customizable battery holders with adjustable parameters.
The author tested various GPUs on a Raspberry Pi 5 and a modern desktop PC, finding that the Pi can match or beat the PC's performance in some cases, especially in efficiency. The Pi's efficiency is due to its lower power consumption, often 20-30W lower than the PC.
A new paper by David Wolpert introduces a mathematically precise framework for the simulation hypothesis, showing that several claims break down when defined rigorously. The framework suggests a stranger landscape, including the possibility of infinite chains of simulated universes and multiple versions of 'you' in different simulations.
