AI Daily Driver – Privacy and Validity
While I am on a vocational basis fairly related to the full stack requirements for a local LLM, this has drawn my attention away from paid services and created a blind spot as we were not allowed to use them. I did in a limited capacity, but have transparency issues with them I need other takes on.

Reasons for this are not an unwillingness to pay, hence the question.

I can't afford a 5090, for multiple reasons. I only need the vRAM truly. I imagine we will start to see massively distorted cards out of NVIDIA and other providers lumping in functionality for 17 other things you didn't need it for, but also recognize the dangers of submitting to the same power on a service basis in response to that.

This does change system prompting and I am after a more integrated and studied approach to interacting with them. Just because they are black boxes, does not mean we can't infer even from flimsy bayesian simulation pricniples what is going to happen when I ask it XYZ.

This highlights why I do not like browser services but appreciate the added capabilities their services present. I am just trying to get a grasp of the actual trade off point is between "you should just pay them and be careful" and "it's worth building yourself". I have 20 per month to work with judging by current fair price.

To get unaltered results, with ensured no system prompting in between, and ensure an information system in a FOSS sense where I can ensure the validity of it and use it instead of having to constantly stay in top of a provider, without buying a $2000 card that will require another couple grand to build around? Cloud GPU? The use of multiple LLMs and langchain to dynamically make use of less? I think I can fit a 4090 in my machine with the 9900k and PSU and everything I have, but I think I will get MOBO forced to step up from the Z390 past that.

I will admit, I was lazy for much of my life and this is an over correction. I simply am working through understanding the impact of me being lazy with no hinesight of what is growing into the reality that algorithmic thinking will circumvent what's good for most of us due to the investment it requires to get a fair deal and not be a victim of the next training data set. So I may seem a bit over-zealous.

Nah. Admitting to murder doesn’t spare you from the deed. I would fire his ass.
I recommend you read the decision if you're interested in this subject: https://www.queenslandjudgments.com.au/caselaw/qdc/2025/41/p...

> Mr Mitchell said that John Weeks was the organiser of an auction of the world’s
largest collection of pinball and arcade gaming machines. Mr Mitchell had an
agreement with him to host the auction for a fee of $50,000. After the publication of
the video, Mr Weeks cancelled the agreement, apparently because of the negativity
surrounding Mr Mitchell as a result of the video. Mr Mitchell later received an
email from Mr Weeks confirming that cancellation, in which he said:

> "As per our previous conversation, I apologize for our decision to withdraw our
agreement with you to host you at our auction due to the allegations from
Karl Jobst that you played a significant role in Apollo Legend’s decision to
take his own life. We made the decision strictly for business reasons and I do
not feel personal discontent with you, but the negativity brought by the claims
presented too large a risk to us strictly from a business perspective."

> Mr Mitchell recalled that another person, Ryan Burger, who had booked him for
three separate events, cancelled all three and has not since booked him to appear at
any events. Mr Burger also sent him an email cancelling the third event, saying:

> "Due to the toxicity and negativity brought by Karl Jobst’s claim that you
played a role in Apollo Legend’s decision to take his own life, Old School Gamer Magazine feels compelled to withdraw its $5,000 per weekend paid
appearance offer also for the Midwest Gaming Classic.
I had hoped that this would have faded by now so we didn’t have to cancel
this event similar to Des Moines Gaming Classic and Planet Comicon
appearances that we had withdrawn earlier this summer, but I think it’s best
that we allow some time to pass given the current climate."

> Whether or not the reasons given in those emails were true, the withdrawal of the
offers demonstrated a harmful effect of the video on Mr Mitchell’s reputation and
the receipt of the emails affected Mr Mitchell’s personal reactions to the video.

Jobst's team argued that the suicide accusation didn't cause any damage because Mitchell's already poor reputation and the other claims he made in the video meant that it couldn't be harmed further. The judge pointed out in his decision that the cheating allegations and the suicide allegations impacted different "sectors" of Mitchell's reputation and that "In seeking to prove that the plaintiff already had a bad reputation (whether as a defence to an allegation of harm to reputation or because of substantially true contextual imputations), the allegedly bad reputation must be relevant to that “sector” of the plaintiff’s reputation that is, or may be, harmed by the imputations proved by the plaintiff." You're right that Jobst's team didn't literally argue that cheating at Donkey Kong is equivalent to being accused of driving someone to suicide.

How high is resolution? The example screenshots look pretty low.
This is quite surreal... especially after I've just described the French perspective.

This reminds me of Maoist China where just suggesting a milder approach was enough to get you labeled "rightwinger"! Similarly, the views of the French far-left are not the "French perspective".

What would be an appropriate suppression system here? That's a lotta batteries all arranged like a boy scout arranges kindling logs for a campfire.

A roof-mounted water tank with a thousand gallons ready to dump into the shed? A drum of baking soda?

Or maybe rebuild the shed out of cinder block and clear any overhanging vegetation?

Maybe this whole setup is on desert dirt with plenty of clearance. The fire plan is "run away and wait."

> struct field alignment matches C (even without cgo)

The spec defines alignment for numeric types, but that's about it. There is nothing in the spec about struct layout. That is implementation dependent. If you are relying on a particular implementation, you are decidedly in unsafe territory.

> so any change to the default would break a lot of code.

The compiler can disable optimization on cgo calls automatically and most other places where it matters are via the standard library, so it might not be as much as you think. And if you still have a case where it matters, that is what this is for: https://pkg.go.dev/structs#HostLayout

> Collect the services running on your machines, powered by Plan 9’s innovative /proc and /net file servers.

nitpick: /net is not a file server but a mount point for network file servers such as ether(3), ip(3), and tls(3).

There is an email on the 9fans mailing list alluding to the fact that this might be an actual project. https://marc.info/?l=9fans&m=174352993304181&w=2

The ftp site does work but tailscaled is compiled for 386 and I dont have a 386 kernel running atm. Building from source source is the better way to go on 9.

If this is real and works, they have a new customer.

I'm pretty sure most industrial recycling methods for lithium batteries involve grinding them up, so pack size isn't as much a factor as sheer volume. I think there just wasn't much juice for the squeeze until demand from EVs made recycling worthwhile.

In my case, it was egregiously bad, because someone had cribbed docs from an entirely separate scripting language that did almost the same things. Most of the same features were there, but the docs were utter lies, and failures were silent. So you'd go down the wrong branch of an if statement because it wasn't checking the conditions it claimed to check.

Once I started actually testing the scripts against the docs and rewriting them, life got so much better. The worst part is that it had been that way for years and somehow nobody noticed because the people using that horrible scripting language mostly weren't programmers and they'd just tweak things until they could happy path just enough to kinda-sorta work.

Wrong.

He is quasi anti-woke to the extent "wokeism" becomes a self-defeating problem. He isn't "anti-woke all the time".

If you want to talk about him being explicit, then take stock of what is explicitly said.

Even if they don't use a legal process, if behaving decently they should be prepared in cases like this to say opps, our bad, we'll bring him back.

Behaving decently would actually help the objective of sending a lot of illegals home. People then might say ok to that, but this way there'll be a lot of resistance to the process.

Chess and Go are very different in that one is for points and the other is for annihilation. However, Go solved the draw (and first player advantage) with 'komi'. Giving white (the second player) some extra points, I think it's usually around 6.5 points right now. The amount that komi should be is still up for debate and changing, though I think everyone agrees the half portion is good.

Though stronger players can no longer give 'presents', where you force a draw on a weaker opponent by ensuring both players end up with the same amount of points.

Is there amendment to chess that could work similarly? Nothing is coming to mind, but Chess is not my domain.
Show HN: Make SVGs interactive in React with 1 line
Hey HN

I built svggles (npm: interactive-illustrations), a React utility that makes it easy to add playful, interactive SVGs to your frontend.

It supports mouse-tracking, scroll, hover, and other common interactions, and it's designed to be lightweight and intuitive for React devs.

The inspiration came from my time playing with p5.js — I loved how expressive and fun it was to create interactive visuals. But I also wanted to bring that kind of creative freedom to everyday frontend work, in a way that fits naturally into the React ecosystem.

My goal is to help frontend developers make their UIs feel more alive — not just functional, but fun. I also know creativity thrives in community, so it's open source and I’d love to see contributions from artists, developers, or anyone interested in visual interaction.

From a data center perspective:

The article says this is about "sustained output token generation". For sustained usage, power is a huge factor for "real world performance". H100 has a peak power draw of 700W, while each of the RTX5090 has a peak power draw of 575W, for a total of 1150W.

According to the article it is 78 tokens per second for H100, and 80 tokens per second for the dual RTX5090. So you go up 400W of power in exchange for only two extra tokens per second.

Long story short there is a reason why data centers aren't using dual RTX5090 over H100. For sustained usage, you will pay for it in electricity, and in extra infrastructure to support that increased electricity draw, also extra heat generation and cooling.

Might make sense for a local personal hobby setup though.

If you don't artificially curb wealth accumulation with laws, taxes and wealth limits, you will always and inevitably end up having an accumulation of wealth that allows the rich to stay rich forever, and keep the rest perpetually in poverty. I have consistently been in the highest taxable bracket in my country, and am happy to contribute even a bigger % of my wealth towards the betterment of the living conditions of my country and city.

Talk about "self-made". History has shown again and again that this can only go on as long until the poor and oppressed rise up, seize the wealth, and in the process, harm their "oppressors".

Agree with the rest of your points, children are luxury goods in the current macro.
when things are new they get work done. then they hand it to others who squander it because they never had to build it.

what youre describing was 45 years ago. since that time tax funded research has become a “cushy job” where the politics matters far more than the output. the real work is done in private R&D where you actually have to get things done. no stealing money from people en mass to fund it.
I emailed rms about whether he'd might consider using a fully free software, hardware, firmware computer with a free software targetable eFPGA, which I explained here all the computer parts that exist today that can make it happen: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43547644

The april fools is that I asked him to also consider using mitigations that counter the side effects of the two possibly proprietary components. (the display and nonvolatile storage medium)
Netflix is still pretty cash-heavy on average, though with a lot more compensation going towards stock options in recent years. They let the employee choose the ratio. They pay extremely well, but this comes along with very high hiring standards and a very difficult culture.

The culture was and still is as you have described, with massively high pressure, "radical candor" taken to arguably very unhealthy levels, and with no hesitation in firing you. This is a major reason why, despite the fact that I am a video engineer with a film background who lives walking distance to 2 of their campuses and has a great amount of respect for their technical achievements, I never apply there.
I think a lot of these "voice assistant" systems are envisioned and pushed by senior leadership in companies like SVPs and VPs. They're the ones who make the decision to invest in products like this. Why do they think these products make sense? Because they themselves have personal assistants and nannies and chauffeurs and private chefs, and voice is their primary interface to these people. It makes sense that people who spend all their time vocally telling others to do work, think that voice is a good interface for regular people to tell their computers to do work.
Of so many democrat congresscritters.

Really if they were interested in helping out the systemic issues, the right would be supporting bills that remove the ability of congresscritters to trade individual stocks. This has been attempted over the years, a great example is S.3631 in 2022 or S.1171 in 2023. It would be amazing to get it codified rather then witch hunting that's going on now.
