This is why MFA is important and why it should be a separate device from the user's phone.

Qwen3:14B works fine on my 4060 Ti 16GB.

It's not good at debugging and what I would consider, "figuring complicated things out" but it's perfectly capable of working on/creating several functions at a time or generating a medium-length Python module. Which is how I prefer to write code (with AI) anyway (little bit at a time; don't let it be your architect!).

My buddy has a 5090 and runs Qwen3:27B. With that much VRAM it can handle a LOT more context and it's apparently all he needs now. He stopped paying Anthropic shortly after that model came out.

In JavaScript, this.

I take exception to that programmer bullet! We always have reasonable conditionals for any and all jargon. There's actually an eponymous law about this, pointing out what happens when someone is wrong on the Internet. It's called Beckstrom's Law.

I recommend Obsidian for keeping track of events like this 👍

This comic is absolutely true: The AI companies don't give two shits about getting consent before feeding content into their AI training databases.

But it's also true that they don't need it. They're not redistributing the works, so it doesn't matter (from a copyright perspective).

Courts have already reaffirmed our right to save stuff that gets delivered to our computers over the Internet. If we changed that rule, it would mean the end of the Internet, Lemmy, memes, etc.

AI companies suck—yes—but don't let anger at their behavior convince you that removing everyone's basic rights is a good idea.

Should you need consent before recording the police committing a crime?

Should you need consent to cite/copy someone's work in order to critique it?

Should you need consent before quitting your job?

Not everything needs consent and in fact, the entire concept of requesting consent flies in the face of our rights in many scenarios.

There's a whole lot of people—in power—that would love it if everything required consent.

Consent is a complicated topic that should not be talked about like it is all black and white.

Are you sure? It is the cheesiest of quests.

Babybel cheese is for kids.

Elderbel cheese is for when you need something so sharp you could kill someone with it.

Cesarian kids didn't get this map.

Isekai is just the fantasy version of sci-fi. It presents that, "what if?" question but (usually) with cat girls, swords, and magic.

Dancing in the shower without music isn't nearly as fun 🤷
