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…
Message to my future self. For some reason, Unreal Engine thinks my laptop screen is a High DPI screen and makes the UI huge. So, to address this issue, I need to go to the Editor Preferences and disable support for High DPI.
I have always had a hard time understanding why we need antivirus software. There is plenty of code that has bugs, and viruses exploit these bugs to compromise systems. Instead of writing more code to protect us from viruses, why not fix the bugs? Similarly, I do not understand: …
The neighbors dog 🐕 started barking before 5am 🕔 in the morning. 🤔 not sure what’s wrong with that dog. It may have some PTSD or even worse currently abused.
I am on a quest to find the perfect software for working from my Oculus Quest on my Linux laptop. So far, Immersed is the best option for me. However, I’m looking for more features and better functionality. For instance, audio is broken. I’ve tried different methods to troubl…
Did you know that if you want to get to ChatGPT, you can just type in the browser chat.com?
To start Bluetooth pairing on my Logitech OROCHI mouse, I need to press two side buttons and the DPI button simultaneously for 3 seconds until the DPI LED starts blinking.
Snap is an annoying feature when I am moving windows or adjusting guidelines in GIMP; sometimes I need it, but more often it is in my way. Probably invert the behavior and enable snapping by some hotkey (e.g., Shift), but by default never snap.
Standard Apple practice. Make everything suck and then unsuck things one by one and call it innovation.
Apple added a tool to convert DirectX shaders to Metal. 🤯 Metal can be used with C++. 🤯

I ended up acquiring Tesla insurance. Had no idea how cheap and convenient it is. Took me about 20 minutes to get it, no waiting for 2 weeks, no talking to representatives, no paperwork; a flat rate of $340/month for two cars and two drivers. I am glad other insurance companies w…
When did auto insurance become such a headache? I got my first and only insurance in 2008, and never had any problems until now. 45 minutes listening to a purely produced MIDI music on the phone waiting for a representative.
There is an issue with connection reusing in curl multi, not sure if I am doing something wrong or if there is a bug in libcurl. Currently, I work around it by just disabling the connection reuse. curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FORBID_REUSE, 1L);

I am working on a new project, and the default character return for source code files is set to the DOS style. That gave Emacs some measles disease, filling the screen with bright red ^M symbols. To investigate, I placed the cursor on ^M, pressed Alt+X, and ran `describe-ch…

What am I doing with my life? I make AI to write code, and spend tons of time debugging and reviewing the code. And AI also blames me for writing bad code. The world is upside down. What if I write messy code and AI reviews it and fixes bugs? Can we arrange that?

A Thought Experiment: Simplifying C++ Function Calls with Structs (C++20)
Ever dealt with a C++ function that has too many parameters, most of which are optional? Here’s an example:

Note to future me. I take it back; I realized I have a smaller GPU, and it’s on 7.5. I want to use both. So, the command to build whisper.cpp on my laptop is.
CUDA_DOCKER_ARCH=compute_75 GGML_CUDA=1 make -j

Why do we call things headless, usually there is a head, but no body. Like headless Git, it has everything except the working tree. Or a headless VM, it has the brains but no visual representation. Maybe ‘faceless’ would be a more appropriate term?
