Hardcore Pawn. We are treated to a bunch of episodes every weekend over here.

I thought it meant “so much hate”.

If I remember correctly, those actually have Steam with Proton built in.

Putting “rule” in the title for reasons I don’t understand.

Agreed. I hope lawmakers step in and make EULAs like this unenforceable.

I’ve been happily running cheap Nokia phones for the last couple of years. It’s vanilla Android with very little bloat, no ads and years of security updates.

I just know how to use search engines and follow instructions written by people smarter than me.

99% of being a programmer is knowing what to Google, so you’re halfway there.

Is there no risk of the LLM hallucinating cases or laws that don’t exist?

Burning Man?

Linux is also interesting, but I like gaming without fiddling too much with my operating system, I just don’t want to commit my rare spare time to that. I want install -> play.

With Proton, running Windows games from Steam has become pretty much click-and-play. If you do all your gaming through Steam, most games just work.

I can’t speak for the current state of the art, like the ANN’s used by LLM’s like ChatGPT, but I have some ideas about the future of neural networks. I think there’s a future in networks based on Predictive Coding, which are more versatile, and also in SNN’s implemented on neuromorphic hardware.

“Opportunities for neuromorphic computing algorithms and applications” by Schuman et al. provides a good overview of neuromorphic computing.

For an overview of Predictive Coding see “Predictive Coding: a Theoretical and Experimental Review” by Millidge et al.
