@dotstdy in what sense?

> At Red Hat we are expected to set, and meet, goals each quarter if we want our “full” bonus. One of those is around introducing AI into our daily work. You’ve probably seen various Red Hat employees talking about using AI. It’s hard to deny there is financial incentive to do so.hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha this would explain some thingshttps://blogs.gnome.org/chergert/2025/10/03/mi2-glib/From https://circumstances.run/@davidgerard/115343584016809960

"Slang translates a matrix multiplication, mul(mat1, mat2), to transpose(mul(transpose(mat2), transpose(mat1))) when targeting SPIR-V."come on

I checked, 45 minutes every 4.5h, from rated capacity you're getting 360km out of a 40m charge. 4.5h at 90km/h is 400km, so you're losing 40km (90 at 100km/h, ignoring efficiency) range every 4.5h, vaguely. Pretty cool! Assuming the rated capacity is vaguely correct for long haul driving.

Too many designs are developed without any user testing or feedback at all, and then feedback is surprising once it gets released into the wild and everyone involved becomes incredibly defensive. You shouldn't be routinely getting entirely surprised by feedback to changes, because you should already know when you ship.

Remember when people said mobile phones caused brain tumours. What a time.

fun, i've always vaguely liked the idea of cuckoo hashing https://reiner.org/cuckoo-hashing

I was curious to read about the Unity CVE, but it turns out it's really a nothing burger. The usual story. (Code execution if you control the launch command line, kinda interesting in theory if you're able to pass command lines directly from the web, but unclear if that actually exists in any interesting ways)

I wonder if lockstep networked games have a noticable tail of hardware bit-flip induced desync issues. It seems like any strict reproducibility requirement without recovery would be quite sensitive to this kind of issue in ways that most games are not.

My partner is learning python (zero programming experience) and wanted some introductory resources, are there any good ones out there? to save me the effort of wading through the endless sea of SEO optimised AI garbage...

i have to admit i didn't really see rust becoming some weird fixture in an "anti-woke" war. real men don't need a borrow checker. what a world

it's extremely funny to me that people think because they use the cloud their app can go "viral" and not fall over in pieces. bold, entirely untested, and never to be tested assumption

people have the strangest ideas at times..."Then they shouldn’t be pressing the Windows key. I can’t recall the last time I saw a new game where CTRL, ALT, and SHIFT were in-game controls. There was a big fad for that back in the 90s and early 2000s, but we’ve moved away from it for good reasons."- guy complaining about keyboard grab in sdl, in 2021

Is there a way in KDE / Gnome to block the stupid windows key from fullscreen applications? i.e. as an application developer, not just unbinding it in your own configuration?

does anyone know how to get in touch with the local antifa cell leader? (im not from the fbi, im woke)

I usually check https://status.mastodon.social/ when mastodon.social goes down, and invariably it says the site is all green even though it's quite obviously Not Fine. I wonder if they've optimized away the health checks.

i honestly just feel like i'm losing my mind. it generates an entire page of completely wrong information, and your plan is that this... helps people? i feel like i'm inhabiting a parallel universe.

Am I worse at typing, or is autocorrect just getting worse? I feel like I constantly end up with incorrected words.

Oh hey the NIN Tron soundtrack is out
