Ditch iOS and Android for a Blackberry OS / Nokia ? Really, are there any alternatives?


SailfishOS, Ubuntu touch, and postmarketOS to name a few from the top of my dome.

Nokia isn't really an alternative at all since M$ bought it.


Motorola and grapheneos? If only the French government weren't attacking Graphene.

As for desktop, I suppose the only major European options are Ubuntu and SUSE with corporate backing.


The French government and Murena (makers of /e/OS). They are spouting nonsense that security hardening is only for pedophiles and spies:

It's ironic that a company that pretends to be for privacy is using the same think of the children argument as those pushing Chat Control, age verification, etc. Of course, their privacy is mostly a farce, since they have also been caught uploading data to OpenAI for text-to-speechi

I hope that more European governments will start supporting GrapheneOS, since it can compete with Apple on security and is better than Apple and GMS Android when it comes to privacy.


SWE chart is missing Claude on front page, interesting way to present your data. Mix and match at will. Grown up people showing public school level sneakiness. That fact alone disqualifies your LL. Business/marketing leaders usually are brighter than average developers... so there.


1897 Boris Rosing of Russia showed moving image using cathode ray tube.


Why not the super cluster?


What does Netflix has to do with AV1 codec? While Netflix’s Norkin has contributed some minor add-ons like film grain, Daala folks should have been mentioned along with x264/x264 guys who were at the origins on AV1 development, Google VP9 guys for their contributions and Intel maybe for HW porting, among others. Basically whomever pays for the show, gets to wear the crown. Nothing to see here…


What made it in from Daala?

* Multi-Symbol Entropy Coder

* Chroma from Luma

* CDEF filter (directional dering filter)

What didn't make it in?

* Lapped Transform

* Use of vector quantization for residuals (aligning the vectors)


Sonnet 4 had turned to shit recently (about 2.5 months according to my observations). It hallucinated on 3 questions in a row while looking at a simple bash script. Was enough for me to cancel. Claude biz is killing Claude dev. It was good while they were not so stingy on GPU.


Which means they got it.


Or the MOD told them they’ve had it all this time and don’t draw any more attention to it


Qwen3-32b did it pretty accurately it seems. Calculated heat loss over time going to ambient temp, offered to keep it at standby 100C for short breaks under 10 minutes. Shut down completely for longer breaks.


The correct answer is that it's always better to turn it off, though.


Unless you care about warmup time. LLMs have a habit of throwing in common-sense assumptions that you didn’t tell it to, so you have to be careful of that.

It’s not a bug. Outside of logic puzzles that’s a very good thing.


No, warmup time doesn't change anything, I can simply factor it in.

It is a bug, because I asked it precisely what I wanted, and it gave the wrong answer. It didn't say anything about warmup time, it was just wrong.


If I get a job, I’ll buy one.

How difficult is it to add a blood pressure sensor?


Congrats!
