Ran "Strahd Dies TONIGHT!" as a halloween 1-shot for Halloween this year. It was really fun speedrunning this classic D&D castle! However: I didn't notice until playing that in generating the hand drawn style I wanted, the LLM had also added modern doors (blue) […] [Original post on namtao.com]

The server I forgot about in 2020: 99.999% uptime

Wake up babe, new greeting just dropped :ablobcatheart:

#EuroRust was SO fun! Thanks to too many people to fit here, the organisers, the speakers, the friends - I can't wait to come back next year. (Maybe I'll even have my OWN talk instead of riding on @fasterthanlime 's coattails 😁 )

I take credit for the name and nothing else. What a great time! Thank you @fasterthanlime ♥️

Also this is a big argument in the alternative. For technical reasons related to context limits and training data, none of this shit actually works well enough to replace software at any meaningful scale. To paraphrase @pluralistic by way of Jensen Huang: AI will not take your job. A boss using […]

First day of #Eurorust! :rust: @fasterthanlime and my talk is at 4pm, but we're starting out the day strong with the first talk, by the inimitable @oli, on my favorite #rust topic: ✨️ Moving your problems to compile-time ✨️ https://eurorust.eu/talks/move-your-problems/

So, I've had the #SteamFrame for a week now, and I have thoughts. 1. It's got a 2x faster CPU than the Deck, at least when compiling #Rust. 2. The battery life is not "an hour". it's "As long as you can keep swapping out the 2-3 USB C batteries you already have […] [Original post on namtao.com]
