Comment Fable (Score 1) 85

I've been tokenmaxxing Fable 5 and I have to say I'm pretty happy .. except for the fact that I'm running out of tokens too fast. I did try with Opus 5 and it's ok, but it does get confused more than Fable 5. For what I'm doing Fable gets it right sooner. But the tokens are killing me.

What i do now is make it pause until my quota resets again. But this is clunky.

I doubt that's true. People literally took a nuke to the face in Hiroshima. Then breathed in all its fallout with have lifes of minutes, or mere hours (ie. much more radioactive) and lived to a ripe old age to tell the tale.

So no. A microgram is not healthy for you. But I don't think you're "toast" if it happens.

The damage was nothing compared to the whole tsunami damage. People seem to forget the absolutely devastating tsunami that actually KILLED PEOPLE. Not to mention all the environmental mess.

Fukushima got hyped up by the media. But wasn't the biggest problem. The tsunami that caused it caused a thousand other problems.

Comment Old Windows New Windows (Score 1) 106

Frankly, I'd like to install Windows 2000 or NT 4.0 on my Ryzen box.. It probably flies at 32bits without all the clunk "modern" Windows has.

It's probably amazing!

Imagine how windows 95 would fly on a modern CPU.

These old OSes ran great on less than 100 Mhz and with 8 MB of RAM!

"Modern" OSes seem to struggle with 32GB!

US high school education prioritizes sports and high school musicals.

Great for winning Olympics and other sporting events. Great for actors and Youtubers.

Not great for science. And now the science strongholds in Universities are being threatened by funding cuts, and by blocking the qualified immigrants from other countries that were helping prop it up having had much more demanding high school educations in science and math.

Yeah.. to the average consumer I think they'd want features like this for cell phones and security devices that could be stolen and hacked to obtain private info.

But for laptops or PCs (AMD's main market) I think this scenario is a bit less interesting. Since it only seems to help against physical attacks. We're usually more interested in protection against malware.

Comment Dissing Agile (Score 2, Interesting) 85

People diss agile today because they don't remember how it was before Agile, and how teams that actually succeeded kinda sorta did something like Agile. Agile wasn't adopted by software companies because it was some new religion. It was often adopted because software companies were already "cheating" and Agile just set a framework that could make it work and not feel like cheating anymore.

That being said, successful companies cheat in Agile too.

What's going to replace Agile is some methodology where the new AI tools are going to interconnect to make the team much more productive.

Fidelity hiring 5000 juniors to replace their 1000 seniors .. hmm.. frankly that's not going to work.
Sounds like an idea some MBA came up with to "save money".

Comment Regulatory Capture (Score 1) 126

Sure.. this is what the big players want.

They want models locked up so that there can only be a handful of players, and no open source models or foreign models can be use.

Create a myth about the 'dangers' of mythos and scare the government into heavily regulating. Winners: OpenAI, Amazon/Antrhopic, Google, Microsoft.

Losers: Open Source, Deep Seek, any new comers or innovators.
