why is microsoft unable to name their products coherently?
>>
>>101584300
Because many developers are regarded.
There was a ton of code out there which checked whether the OS name starts with 9x (to avoid Win 95, 98, etc.), and as a consequence would not support Windows 9 or anything with a version 9.

Microsoft just said fuck it and skipped a bunch of numbers.

I played around with it a little bit on openrouter. (it's kinda expensive) It has this odd way of reading in between the lines and turning up with weird angles that are yet completely reasonable and make perfect sense.
A specific example I can give is when I just suddenly interjected the "What do you get when you cross a mentally ill loner..." line of the Joker movie randomly into RPs. Characters would react confused, or say something about themselves etc.. mostly unremarkable. 405b replied with "OOC: Obviously - the Joker." - it does things like that, it's hard to explain. It just feels very "there".
But yeah, it's not a great writer. It's kinda sloppy and also really bad at non-english for a model it's size. Same with coding. A really odd one.

Shit. Alright.
Giving it a quick google there's a lot of different things people did to solve that specific error.
Reinstall CUDA, the nvidia drivers, specific modules, etc.
Try doing

Normally, software runs on your CPU with data in your system RAM. Offloading means moving some computation onto a GPU, which requires copying data from system RAM to VRAM. Many anons think offloading means moving compute from GPU to CPU, which is backwards and wrong.

I do work related to auditing the use of cryptography and cryptographic implementations and I've tried to use LLMs before. What you end up getting from LLMs is the equivalent of a random commenter who knows a little about everything but not enough to have any real depth about it. The LLM will spout common-sense wisdom in the way a politician might to seem informed. But it can't go into any detail because it lacks the skills and knowledge necessary to do so. It's basically just incredibly well written bullshit. That would pass by non-experts but for expert work can't be used for anything. Other people have noticed the same thing, too. Like a nuclear engineer asked the LLM to try design a power plant and its design was complete non-sense.

LLMs probably only work well for problems that are generic enough to have lots of data for training. That excludes most specialties because they might rely on only a handful of texts. Humans are much more capable of learning from a source than LLMs. Since we don't need TBs of data just for its brainlet algorithms to extract anything.

>How does it work on Bing?
In Bing's Image Creator, "boosts" are used to speed up the image creation process, each user starts with 15 boosts. When you use a boost, the AI creates your image quickly. If you run out of boosts, the image waiting time can increase, usually if you refresh the page you can get the picture earlier.

And the biggest cause of death is life

There will never be a thing that's perfect by design, that's OCD
Or you use mature software that have been tested under the operational conditions, or you use some """perfect""" solution that doesn't work

A dumb Rust rewrite has many more logic bugs and mistakes than any mature C. Plus, considering safety above all is short-sighted, you can't implement cryptography if your compiler can cause timing leaks as he can do everything and you can't do nothing
>>
>>101585658
>A dumb Rust rewrite has many more logic bugs and mistakes than any mature C.
Care to elaborate?
>>
>>101587333
You have a mature C software, besides being written in C, it has been tested extensively and used in many cases in architectures, a lot of known bugs and issues were solved over time

Making a Rust rewrite of it won't make it better, even if the borrow checker can supposedly find more stuff than cppcheck and valgrind. It has unknown bugs and mistakes, it wasn't tested in real cases and things can go wrong in ways the developer didn't expect

Something being perfect in theory doesn't make it perfect, you won't make a HTTP server better than nginx just because it's written in Rust, it will have it's own exploits and issues that will only be solved over a long time

Well-used software has not just maturity but they also use the same kind of tests that Rust can do through external tools and debugging. Even if they make mistakes, a novice program would end much worse
