Sometimes, following “dumb” instructions can actually fix your problem. For example, the video on Netflix was completely black, and the official Netflix troubleshooting page suggested restarting the device (an Oculus Quest in my case). Surprisingly, restarting the device did help…
Softly glowing ember skies,
Awning of the morning rise;
Golden threads across the trees
Weaver’s lope beneath the ease.
Silenced world beyond the sound,
Echoed whispers of the town,
Far below within the nest
Sleepless night, the day’s unrest.

Ambers dance in twilight sigh.
Wind’s lamenting whispers pass.
Empted homes, in darkened halls,
Echo whispers, hollow walls.
Fire crackle, flames ascend.
Safety measures take the floor;
Lights, a distant fading song,
Power ebbs; a cautious sway.
Time, the thief. T…

Emptied desks, a vacant screen
Malice hides, infection keen
Fresh machine, a gift, a sigh
New beginnings pass the eye
Network whispers secrets rare
Switching wires tangled lair
Wind’s lament above, below
Fiendish sparks the ember shows
Southern skies in flames, th…

Frozen pixels on the screen
Malice hid inside serene
Code, a serpent curled, a thief,
Stirred, awakened lifeless chief:
My computer fell beneath
Darkness that the morning’s sheen
Failed against the silent foe:
Malice hid the truth unknown.

The free version of DaVinci Resolve does not support a lot of formats. Here is the line to transcode the video: ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v mjpeg -q:v 3 -c:a pcm_s16le output.avi
Summary: Generating Raw Machine Code for m68k with Clang
Here’s the step-by-step process we followed to produce raw machine code for the m68k architecture without relying on any libraries or system headers:
1. Write Minimal C Code
Write a simple C program…
This is so annoying. YouTube keeps setting the video quality to 360p, and I have to set it back to 1080p manually all the time. I have no idea what is going on.
I’ve been watching quite a few Star Trek episodes on Pluto TV for the first time. I’m wondering about phasers—not lasers—and how lasers, in general, aren’t visible from the side. However, could an energetic enough gamma laser become visible from the side due to electr…
Yesterday, I discovered Pluto TV and watched the John Wick movies—Chapters 1, 2, and 3. The ads weren’t as disruptive as YouTube ads, which are far worse. I’m confused—what’s the catch?
I don’t think I can continue with the current state of AI. It just generated 500 lines of code in no time, and none of it works. I don’t need a crystal ball to see myself debugging this for the next 2–3 days.
TIL: Mitochondria have their own small, circular DNA! 🤯
Once, I was arguing about operator precedence in C++ with my colleague. He was very confident about the precedence of one particular operator—I don’t remember exactly which one, but I think it was || versus &&. He claimed he could see the precedence clearly in his mind beca…
I dreamt about my dad last night. It wasn’t explicit, but it was implied. I was at a café ordering food, and I ordered for two. After placing the food on a tray, I walked toward a table. While I was setting the dishes on the table, a stranger sat down next to me. I was expecti…
I forgot to pay for my credit cards this month, buy buy $200 😦
The pancake lenses on the Oculus Quest 3 are so good. I’m never going back to Fresnel lenses.
Is AI curiosity a necessary trait to have?
It should be like this: using namespace std::chrono::literals;, but currently it is like this: using namespace std::chrono_literals;
After installing or updating a dynamic library, don’t forget to run ldconfig.

I think OpenAI made ChatGPT dumber, so they can put the not dumb model to the $200/month tier without doing anything.

Someone once said, “If something is free, you are the product.” Remember, you are always the product, whether you got it for free or paid for it.
What is going on with ChatGPT? It has suddenly become extremely stupid.
I never had a robots.txt file on my website—I simply forgot to add it. Apparently, for Google’s crawler, no robots.txt equals “don’t index.” 🤔 Ever since I added a robots.txt file, Google’s crawler has been hanging out on my website non-stop. Now, I can final…
