  • I am a newbie in LibreOffice, but I am wondering whether me chronicling my first experiences in it would be worth doing.

    I think what we sorely lack is more people like Nick and Michael Horn making approachable tech news about this niche.

    I understand that to some the idea itself of the tech news cycle, focused on its own navel all the time is not appealing, but I think that is exactly there that a channel like this could distinguish itself, showcasing OSS solutions having an impact on the public good, something the usual news outlets cannot afford to do since every second is lost revenue.

    The only risk is being boring.



  • I have read the threads up to now and, despite being ignorant about security research, I would call myself convinced of the usefulness of such a tool in the near-future to shave off time in the tasks required for this kind of work.

    My problem with this is that transformer-based LLMs still don’t sound to me like the good tool for the job when it comes to such formal languages. It is surely a very expensive way to do this job.

    Other architectures are getting much less attention because of this the focus of investors on this shiny toy. From my understanding, neurosymbolic AI would do a much better and potentially faster job at a task involving stable concepts.







  • Here where I am the only such places left are meant for Lan parties and populated by veeery competitive people.

    I started playing multiplayer (directly to Warzone) for the first time in my life during the pandemic. I play only once a week if the 3 of us are online. I can organize a farewell party and that’s it.

    As a game, CoD/Warzone is terrible, the anti-cheat is iffy as well. I am a patient gamer who loves indie games, stuff like most Devolver games.

    I won’t miss it. It’s more of a “tell your friends you grew up” problem.
