    I tried many times before, mostly pushed by friends nerdier than me. Always failed.

    Now I am on Mint since a few months pushed just by myself not accepting AI slop force fed to me by my computer and having become very protective of my privacy since GDPR (I am the DPO at my company).

    I must say it has become incredibly user-friendly (at least on Mint CE) and as a gamer, I am very satisfied with both performance and variety (I would have said GabeN be praised one month ago, but I am slowly moving my library to GOG/Heroic, for similar reasons, so the praise has to be shared).










  • I have read the threads up to now and, despite being ignorant about security research, I would call myself convinced of the usefulness of such a tool in the near-future to shave off time in the tasks required for this kind of work.

    My problem with this is that transformer-based LLMs still don’t sound to me like the good tool for the job when it comes to such formal languages. It is surely a very expensive way to do this job.

    Other architectures are getting much less attention because of this the focus of investors on this shiny toy. From my understanding, neurosymbolic AI would do a much better and potentially faster job at a task involving stable concepts.







  • I am talking about Europe now:

    we need trains. We need to unify the rail systems (rail width and electrical tensions) and the ticket systems. Europe could be easily served using a network of night train routes.

    I think there should be way more political discourse about rail in the EU, but, for example in Italy, airports have been used as electoral campaigning devices.
