They’re maxmaxxing hard…

And you installed all the dependencies listed in the dependencies section and the following section (specifically winetricks and yad)?

Other than that, I never had any trouble installing it.

Arch Linux. First on i3, later on wayland with Sway, where I had lots of flickering, so I’d use XFCE (with x11) specifically for Fusion work (so log out and log in with xfce when i wanted to use fusion). and now Niri, which works well enough for flickering, but has issues with fusion 360’s modal windows not being in the right place, so i use a Labwc window inside Niri and force Fusion to run in that, mostly because i grew tired of switching to xfce. I would recommend xfce if you want less hassle. Haven’t tried with gnome or kde.

Do you remember what issues you had? Whenever i had trouble in the past (e.g. with logging in), i usually found a solution in the github issues (i guess both GH aud codeberg issues now that the project moved)

Oh you’re right, it’s moved to codeberg. I’ve updated my original post. Lots of projects moving off of github recently, because Microsoft. In my experience crinklyfly is very active in maintaining the repo, so hopefully this will continue on codeberg.

I’ve been using it through wine for two years now, using this repo.

It works surprisingly well, sometimes there’s some flickering, but not enough to prevent me from working. It gets a bit slow to react on big assemblies, though that might also be the case on windows. logging in is a pain, luckily that’s only every 1-2 months (you need to log in on the homepage, copy the login id and run a cli command with the id, within the 30 seconds before the id expires. Usually takes me 2-3 tries because i forget it after 2 months). it not seeing linux drives and having to copy files from/to wine’s drive_c is a bit annoying.

but overall it’s good enough, haven’t booted the windows partition in those two years and I’m willing to deal with this to be windows free. But if i had to use it professionally as a daily driver, that would probably be different.

I did have to reinstall it twice in the two year period, though.

You can find a cleaned up version here

Someone over on lobste.rs has deobfuscated it, code can be found here

The killer feature for me with Kagi is being able to set priorities for domains. Like, never show me pinterest, but show results from some obscure forum higher. Being able to customize results is such a great feature and allows filtering out a lot of the spam

This is one of the big issues i have in my job. I’m on a dev team but a majority of the people around here are research data scientists. And a shitty 1000 line python script with zero regard for quality, that only really produces a bar chart as output and is never used again after 6 months is all they ever work with. And LLMs are amazing for that. But these data scientists don’t seem to understand that not all software is like that. So it’s really hard to have a real conversation about it.

And wouldn’t you know it, these are some of the same kind of people building this stuff and pushing the vibe coding narrative.

The main benefit of these kinds of batteries is that you mainly just need to increase storage tanks to increase capacity. So price is pretty flat compared to the linear increase for lithium ones. Above a certain size, they are cheaper. Plus ~15k charge cycles vs 1k. Easy to recycle the electrolyte. No fire hazard because it’s all disolved in water. But bigger space footprint.

Yes but my whole question was about how a bet resolves, who decides it is resolved and who decides what the true outcome was. So i assumed your answer was to that question, which it didn’t seem to answer.

See the edit in my original post.

But the news papers don’t go and klick a button in e.g. kalshi. Someone/something has to collect the news sources and change the state of the bet to ‘resolved’. Either a human arbitrator, or some consensus vote by users or something like that? And that would already be very problematic, like what’s to stop the arbitrator from deciding in their friends favor?

But why would anyone buy shares after an event resolved? You’d expect liquidity to dry up at that point. So i can’t imagine that this is how it’s ultimately resolved and you get paid out.

Usually with new security tools, e,g. fuzzers, you catch a whole bunch of bugs, and then that class of bugs is essentially eliminated, but the security arms race switches to different classes of bugs not solved by the tools. So yôu have a big initial peak of bugs found/fixed that slows to trickle. Remains to be seen if LLMs follow the same pattern.

How does calling the bets on those platforms actually work? Is it employees that need to decide which outcome happened? And can anyone make a bet? If so, how do they keep up with all the bets and even just knowing that a bet is ready to be called?

[edit]
ok, i decided to research this myself (so much for the wisdom of crowds).

some platforms have an admin pick what option was the outcome.

And some have a board of traders that vote on what the outcome was(maybe with votes weighted by how many shares of some token they own…)

so yeah, some admin on the platform or a few users are the ultimate arbitrer of truth, which sounds stupid to me. Especially since any ambiguity of the wording of the bet is up to them to figure out.

this page had nice examples of kalshi and polymarket resolution ‘failing’. Was also not surprised that polymarket uses crypto for resolution, of course there’s crypto involved in this somehow… it really fits the online gambling theme

I tiought it was ice age in north europe and heat waves and hurricanes in north america, it carries hot water up north and cold water from the poles down the american east coast.

Even for that, 4 legs like the robot dogs is easier/more stable. Plus purpose built robots that don’t need to move are generally cheaper and make more sense, like a dishwasher.

and ten 500 bucks purpose built robots are cheaper than one 20-50k humanoid robot that does tasks slowly and needs a human remote operator for most of them

Denmark and Norway. Not sure what he wants with the Netherlands, though.

In a way, LLMs have already taken my job as a software engineer. It’s not that they can do my job better than me. But they suck all the joy out of the field, they expose the almost religious culture around efficiency and velocity in the field (no, i don’t want to be 5% faster to make the boss richer and feel miserable doing it) and how little my peers care about craft and quality. Also why do those fucks have to lap up every new technofacist oligarchy thing with such enthusiasm, it pisses me off.

so it’s not that it does my job, but that it showed me how much i disdain this field now.

I’m thinking of switching to something (cnc) machining/cad related, both skills i taught myself and love , but i don’t know what kind of position could be suitable given my dev knowledge and lack of formal training. Plus i wouldn’t want to do the operator kind of work where all you do is put stock in the cnc machine and execute someone elses CAM, that seems too close to using LLMs in spirit. I do want and like creative work and tinkering.

and I’m lucky enough to work for a university, so good work life balance, job security, pension, mostly meaningful work. Ironically enough in the AI field… But that makes considering to switch even harder. I could easily and comfortably coast along and feel discontent for many years to come.

I think we’re more civilized nowadays. I’d be content with reintroducing the pillory. Especially the ‘In addition to being jeered and mocked, the criminal might be pelted with rotten food, mud, offal, dead animals, and animal excrement’ part.

Seriously though, hanging seems too quick/easy and I’m pretty sure public humiliation is a worse punishment for self important narcissistic fucks.
