Is the axe drawing actually a hammer?
Assuming the cutting face is down, the handle is on "backwards" too (the swell at the bottom normally goes the other way).

I certainly wouldn't use a compiler that "screws up" 1% of the time; that's the perfect amount where it's extremely common where everything I use it for will have major issues but also so laborious to find amongst the 99% of correct output that I might as well not use it in the first place.
Which is ironically, the exact case those of us who don't find LLM-assisted coding "worth it" make.

I expect more people over time to use local LLMs to write every single post they make online.
At this point, where everyone is using an LLM to post and I'm having to use an LLM to keep up and summarise it, I think I'll just ...stop and go outside for quite a while...

Haptic steering wheel thumb-wheels instead of actual buttons? Hell no. Full pass. And we're in the market for a vehicle like this in the next year or so, looking hard at Santa Fe Calligraphy, or Outback XT (similar size, similar price tag, AFAICT). No physical buttons = no sale.
My BYD Sealion 7 has been an absolute joy.
When it allows installing any Linux with working drivers, I will consider it. Otherwise, you can go back to your garage and I will continue to make fun of people using Macs.
Why do you care so much? Sounds exhausting...
can't belive there a sunscreen brand called cancer council
Cancer Council is an Australian charity which raises funds for cancer research and support.
Buying their products supports them (and you would expect they hold themselves to even higher standards for the effectiveness of their product than a random company).
How does this "DNS trick" work? That to me is a much more interesting detail.
It likely overrides DNS resolution to CDN/POPs in countries which don't require age checking, or routes the traffic through TCP proxies so your traffic appears to come from a different country without these laws.
This will increase the latency of all traffic to that site though.

AI proponents keep drawing perfectly straight lines from "no AI --> LLMs exist --> LLMs write some adequate code sometimes" up into the horizon of the Y axis where AIs run all governments, write all code, paint all paintings and so on.
There's a large overlap with the crypto true-believers who were convinced after seeing "no blockchain --> blockchain exists" that all laws would be enshrined in the blockchain, all business would be done with blockchains, etc.
We've had automation in the past; it didn't decimate the labour-force; it just changed how people work.
And we didn't go from handwashing clothes --> washing machines --> all flat surfaces are cleaned daily by washing robots...
I made my own really mediocre version of this 2 years ago just for PS4 and Switch ROMS, also using IGDB etc. Glad to see something so polished and professional looking.
For the maintainers, does this pull the metadata (e.g Title ID or PKG ID) from the (supported) ROM files directly, or only from the filename? I skimmed the README and Docs and couldn't find a clear answer.
Where would you recommend someone to start from a more data-sciencey background, algorithms like VSLAM look interesting to mess around with but building a whole robot just to do so seems daunting.
Couldn't you try implement them in a game engine?
