This is an intriguing proposition, especially for those who live and breathe data science and AI. At $3,000, it’s not exactly pocket change, but the specs are impressive—200 billion parameters and a petaflop of performance packed into a desktop unit. I’d love to get my hands on one. The idea of linking two units for even more power is appealing,...

DOOM: The Gallery Experience is a curious blend of nostalgia and satire, poking fun at the often pretentious atmosphere of art galleries. Walking through a reimagined E1M1 while sipping wine and munching on hors d’oeuvres with a string quartet soudtrack is a delightful juxtaposition that might just make you chuckle (or roll your eyes). The touch...

After two weeks safely ensconced in books, terminal windows and holiday movies (yes, of course I watched Die Hard and Love Actually), I am really dreading returning to work tomorrow–every return to work for the past two years has been far too stressful for me to even joke about it, so this year I’m trying to find a way to ease in somehow.

You’re blocked, because it is extremely uncivil to run Scrapy against other people’s sites at the rate you did this morning. Happy 2025, and please don’t do it again. Also, why use GCP for this? It’s not like you’re going to get any useful data out of it.

Well, almost, but not quite. Max Woolf’s exploration of iterative code improvement using LLMs is a fascinating dive into the potential and pitfalls of AI-assisted programming. While the results show significant performance gains, the journey reveals a common theme: the balance between optimization and overengineering. As the code evolves, it...
