Forgot all about Sub-Terrania. Loved that game as a kid.
I (probably unreasonably) despise using web front-ends for desktop applications.
GTK is OK. QT is very feature rich, but that adds complexity. Both can be cross-compiled to most systems and shipped with all the required libraries pretty easily.
I haven't used it in a long while, but I remember liking Java Swing for some reason. Java should be "write once, run anywhere." But, cross-compiling isn't usually too hard, so not sure how much that matters. There's more modern frameworks for JVM-based languages now, but I haven't tried them.
I've noticed Gradio is popular in the ML community (web-tech based, and mostly used for quick demos/prototypes).
Edit: For web applications, I prefer Angular's more traditional architecture over React's hook architecture.
Google (and Apple) use Google's TPUs. Most big tech companies have AI hardware in development.
Don't know why society tolerates these dumbass parasites.
Not sure I agree that there will be less human labor "need." Ideally, we should strive for progress, and not just survive. I think there is infinite use for human labor.
I agree with your second point.
I tried this with a faucet, but used agricultural 30% vinegar. It stripped the finish off, lol.
Edit: you can usually just unscrew the faucet cap, and replace the little aerator or soak the old one in vinegar. In my case, I was replacing the sink, so already had the faucet out, and there was lime build-up on the faucet itself.
IDK. Rocket Mortgage seems to be experts on being responsible with money, as evidenced by this company meeting: https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets/comments/1alzgv3/work_meeting_at_rocket_mortgage_time_for_puts_yet/
Haven't tried Gemini; may work. But, in my experience with other LLMs, even if text doesn't exceed the token limit, LLMs start making more mistakes and sometimes behave strangely more often as the size of context grows.
No problem. Glad you appreciated it. Namaste.
I remember my 4th grade teacher having us read one page about the Daughters of the Confederacy, the teacher briefly discussing the struggles of former slave-owners, and skipping the rest of the chapter on slavery due to "not having enough time." IIRC, even the textbook painted the Daughters of the Confederacy in a positive, or at least neutral light.
I remember my 7th grade health teacher showing us a Christian anti-masturbation video for our sex-ed requirement. This was a rural public school in a northern state. Only other option was a private Catholic school, but my family wasn't Catholic, and my family wouldn't have been able to afford to send me there if they wanted to.
I don't think I even knew about the trail of tears until the middle of high school; and definitely didn't learn about the motivation for hunting Buffalo to extinction.
