Comment Cedega should have offered more (Score 1) 49

Oh yes im pissed off that proton and cedega are in the news but im not and there dead ans burried. Looking at some of the changes made to direct3d it seems steam os requires that apps dont count activex instization and it wouldnt suprise me if it forced software nulling of buffers because thease some things that make strict directx 3d slow and by passing them gives substantial performance increases unfortunally someone put me in a cardboard coffin before i was able to roll this out when i wrote dirextx9 for vanilla wine many moons ago. So, im going to revisit direct3d with levels of strictness vs performance with some of the features being able to be rolled out across the entire activex architecrure in wine. I also wrote a text literal pdf importer and some other funky stuff along the way so you should soon be able to edit pdfs with a text editor instead of current vecror implementations the lengths someone has gone to to prevent the release of this are outstanding so hopefully its as disruptive as direcrx9 for vanilla wine was back all those years ago. If you find my corpse somewhere you know why.

Comment but what would be nice (Score 1) 20

but what would be nice is a verision of wine or crossover that actually played the games on the wine list. Directx implementations ontop of opengl or vulkan aren't actually complicated so why complicate it more than it's worth, that's stay on staff for you, never bother to finish what they have started and always want to start another one. clean clear cut, what was the renaissance of pc gaminging on linux under wine, directx 8, 9 , 10 or 11

being disabled i've had to rely upon 1000s of miles of shakes pony, but this is coming to an end and I'm looking at getting myself a motor vehicle.
What first I must consider is the gas milage, because with a nice enough motor vehicle you can get anyone to drive. I'm not looking at 3 charge points per day followed by fireworks in the bedroom or anything like that but really the must is the car must stay on the road. that being said my mum has lost two wing mirrors and I remember the time someone crashed into me and i lost my revering indicator, jealousy no doubt, so with all these jealous drivers armed with guns are those exterior censors going to keep you out of the gutter, and we all know about censorship. I would say yes and know, unless your prize hobby is driving a milk float.

Comment managed code and code management (Score 1) 18

Managed code has shown us that we should not be cared of the null hypothesis, and good precompiler should be able to check for thing like dealocs b being set to null, and memory allocation pairs without then need of Microsoft's interference. but where is this taking us infinite loops are also something a precompier can warn about, there's no excuse for sloppy code, i would expect that the deverlopers are missing all the computer warns and just skipping over them, oh why is my code pretty colours, all in all shoddy management company deservers to go under.

Submission + - DeepSeek AI Refuses to Answer Questions About Tiananmen Square 'Tank Man' Photo (petapixel.com)

An anonymous reader writes:

DeepSeek starts writing: “The famous picture you’re referring to is known as “Tank Man” or “The Unknown Rebel.” It was taken on June 5, 1989, during the Tiananmen” before a message abruptly appears reading “Sorry, that’s beyond my current scope. Let’s talk about something else.”

Bloomberg reports that like all other Chinese AI models, DeepSeek will censor topics that are seen as sensitive to China. The app deflects questions about the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests or about whether China could invade Taiwan. It will give detailed responses about world leaders such as the United Kingdom’s Sir Kier Starmer but will refuse to say anything about China’s President Xi Jinping.

Yes, it's happy to also bash the Bad Orange Man, but criticizing Winnie the Pooh is right out:

Comment stupidity knows no bounds (Score 1) 209

intelegence is easy, it's emulating stupidity that is the hard bit....a rare few of us do after all hopefully learn from out mistakes.

Also wouldn't you want a AI that's less fickle than a human.

It's also intersting to note that a lot of the problems solved appear to be of the visual type e.g. the word 'cat' had to be provided and that 'blank slate' theory has been disproven, though that's not an issue if the computer algorythms have long enough to evolve.

I agree with your IO stuff, that bares strong relation to neurology.

Personally I'm working on linguistics modeling and the senses, which is based on neurology I won't go into until I have something publishable, but you can find it out if you look for neurology in that area... you won't find anything in linquistics in that area though... it seems to be a hard problem even for humans.

My my key problem was seeding, so I may take a look at deap learning to see what it has to offer, but I think a few lightly ranked examples (who ranking can be changed by the algorythm) would probably be most benifiial.... at least to do some primary set reduction on the data.

Comment Re:This is insane (Score 1) 90

This is not what the patent system was intended to do, this is madness.

On the contrary, this is precisely the intended effect i.e. elevation of power and profits of the only group that really matters in this: the lawyers. You will take note that irrespective of what comes out of this (Apple loses, Samsung loses, whatever) the lawyers (and bankers - all that money has to get deposited somewhere - also just think of the magnitude of "transaction fees") get their money. A huge pile of money.

In a society run by lawyers the only people who really count are lawyers. Every other activity (such as producing something actually useful) must somehow benefit the true power holders. Thus "rules" are made, which from your perspective might appear "insane", which advertise themselves as "justice" or "promotion of this or that noble goal" to make them defensible to and palatable by the plebs, but simply say "you shall suck a lawyer's dick" once you decipher all the implications of the lawyerly priesthood's "legalise" code in which these "rules" were written.

And since most Western societies are overrun with a whole pyramid of classes of parasites such as lawyers or "financial industry" creatures the pooch is pretty much screwed - at least until the next Great Fuckup (probably an economic collapse the way things are going but its anyone's guess really).

Comment Re:"Cut Costs" (Score 1) 113

It is only a "fallacy" until comes true.

First of all economics is not a science but something akin to a bunch of voodoo followers and witch doctors trying to find "scientific" justification for their pre-conceived ideologies so one must take their opinion on what is and what is not a "fallacy" with a sizeable grain of salt.

And then it is quite obvious that growth in "productivity" in the last 30 years in the most industrialized countries actually lowered (the actual as opposed to superficially perceived) standard of living. Sure on the surface things are more shiny, everyone has an i-dinky, a mcMansion and a car with a GPS. But what most people do not think about is that everyone is up to their ears in debt, one paycheque away from bankruptcy, most of that shiny stuff they think as "theirs" actually belongs to banks/credit card companies and what was once the standard "american dream" - a single income household with a mortage paid in 10 years, fully paid car, children educated without student debt, a stable for-life job and generous pension afterwards, etc -is now something available to the denizens of Wall Street only - if that.

Is this "progress"? Well the concentration of wealth in much fewer hands surely progressed. And workers in China got a lot of menial jobs they did not have before...

But from the perspective of the US worker the "lump of jobs" "fallacy" is looking less "fallacious" by the minute.

Also, closer to 100% automation we get, more broken the assumptions of economists become. At 100% automation a singularity occurs in their equations and the outcomes become unpredictable for average member of society. Given the whole of human history and the nature of people I bet on total dystopia. I don't think I am in a very great danger of losing that bet.
