I usually don’t. But this year I have a new-to-me car that had a couple of cross-threaded wheelbolts. Changing the whole hub is pricy and the shop refused to replace just the bolt. I managed to re-thread the other.

Anywho, most lug nuts were really on there, so I gave them a dab of marine grease. I always re-tighten at 1, 100 and 1000km and before any longer trip. But they haven’t moved at all since the 1km re-tightening.

My toddler is thriving in pre-school. We can’t teach her how to be independent and socialise with other kids at home.

I can see a life situation where we would homeschool for a limited time. I’d expect both teaching parent and kid to do standardised testing to make sure the education is up to the national curriculum.

Home schooling should be be an excuse to not school, which it seems to be in some parts of the world.

Not really, but they’ve regulated very similarly to public schools. They have to follow the national curriculum and can’t charge tuition.

In practice I’ve only ever seen Waldorf schools as far as private goes. Maybe internatioal baccalaureate is private, too? I guess there might be some with focus on going pro athlete, too.

I’ve had better luck with llama.cpp for opencode. I’m guessing it does formatting better for tool use.

Gemma4 doesn’t Turboquant. But it is leaner on the KV cache.

edit: looks like there are forks that do turboquant already

It works both ways.

I can tap my government ID card to my phone to identify myself on government sites.

Most do. My social circle and family are spread out over the EU.

I had a SIL and FIL who don’t own, and are generally bad with money. I fear we’re going to have to take them in when they reach retirement.

For personal projects I’ve just got a VPS where me and a couple of partners in crime push over ssh. It’s very informal and merges are requested in our group chat.

At my previous place of employment we selfhosted gitlab. I much prefer that over corporate github. I want my own fork, not a shared repo.

Six-seven

I have an idea of how they could reduce the fish requirements.

How about using shared libraries instead of bundling everything in every snap all the times?

Amazingly it reduces RAM usage as well.

It’s a good way to keep the exploit around for seven days, too, if you apply it right away.

I’m developing an app as a side project, but testing can only happen meaningfully out in the field. I found a breaking bug yesterday, asked Claude to fix and deploy over remote session. I installed the update and continued ny testing session.

I sure wouldn’t want that to go away.

Iran has a professional army with a ground force of 300k.

That’s about the same number of boots the US has. It’ll be no small logistic feat to get that operation a chance.

I remember when I bought my first-gen MacBook with a core duo and 512MB of RAM. The 512 would probably have been enough if I didn’t need Rosetta for half of my applications.

Probably good for a surfing machine if you need to be in the Apple ecosystem. I might get one if I need XCode for something in the future.

Yeah, but I’m not gonna go mug shopping until I’ve had my coffee

Same as I do every morning. A big mug of coffee and a big shit.

No amount of money would change that.

I work at a startup that classifies and extracts data from often very fuzzy sources.

We are encouraged to use agents for development. We use models in our services for things like pinpointing Coca-Cola* cans in YouTube videos. We offer our customers LLMs to discover how Coca-Cola and Pepsi are presented on YouTube.

*Soda scenario imaginary. I don’t want to dox my niche, but it’s similar enough problems that we solve.

Are you looking on truth social?

Many.

Projects don’t usually do bounties, but individual contributors do.

Most things can be implemented, but getting it merged and maintained mainline is harder.

When I’m overwhelmed I lay off alcohol and pastimes.

It stresses me a lot to have things undone. It even affects my sleep.

It helps to write down everything that needs doing, so that I can detach from thinking about it at night or over the weekend. The note will be there on my desk/fridge in the morning so I don’t forget. Check of the easiest things first to reduce the cognitive load of context-switching.
