Don't buy anything OTHER THAN IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad T, X, and W/P Series if you want the Real Business Experience™
>Other business laptops are welcome in /tpg/ (Dell Latitude/Precision, HP EliteBook/ZBook)

Why ThinkPad?
>Used machines are plentiful and cheap
>Excellent keyboards, tactile feel and quiet + the TrackPoint
>Great durability: magnesium roll cage for structural integrity, with high quality plastic body panels
>Utilitarian design: e.g. indicator LEDs, 7 row keyboard layout on older models
>Docking stations that easily turns your laptop into a desktop
>Easy to repair (most models), upgrade & maintain thanks to readily available service manuals for every model, spare parts easy & cheap to obtain
>Excellent Linux & *BSD support

So my uni uses a format called .hwp, similar to .docx, and it can be only opened by a dogshit called Hancom which costs 60 bucks. Converting breaks fonts and stuff and I aint boughting this shit.

Since it isn't used anywhere outside this retard nation the crack isn't avail on reputable sources like Rutracker. had to use Google Search (keyword: "한컴 오피스 2024 무료")

I came across the following link:
https://nameesse.tistory.com/965

But something about it felt off-the compressed installer is 1.1 GB, the post doesn’t mention who made the crack, nor where he got it, nor a rough explanation on how it works.

So I extracted the file(in retrospect I should have used a VM just in case, I did a windows reinstall just in case) and uploaded it to Viru Total-Trojans and Ransomware.

So I dug into this out of curiosity and it seems the hacker used a legit crack and redistributed it with malware

LeCun is really fucking based, he is one of the few that have power and that have the technical knowledge to say out loud that LLMs are a dead end.

If neural nets are a dead end, what do you think researchers should be looking into instead?
>>
>>107743505
They should stop masturbating about stateless mathematical models (because both symbolic AI and neural networks are about logic and math not computing or programming) and start focusing on stateful programs that are actually agentic (in the original sense of the word not in the llm corrupted marketing sense) by having internal state, internal goals and a real model of the world (LeCun is right about this part), all of this not through mathematical models but through programming. If our current languages and databases are not enough then we should make progress there, for example by researching graph databases and new languages that make expressing complex and dynamic rules about the real world possible.
But corpos only want to sell their datacenter services, to them its a feature how inefficient LLMs are, and most researchers are not programmers they are stuck in their bubble of academia writing their papers in their ivory towers.

how do you handle user scripts? are they free to do whatever or is there some sort of interface they're obliged to use (i.e. they can't use system IO with disregard)? I'm not that familiar with CL so I don't know how user script integration works

>>107697626
I use emacs primarily for technical writing. For me, it's not worth fucking with latex and org-mode headers. I write the bulk text in emacs then format it in libreoffice. Stallman was 100% correct in saying that emacs is not great as a word processor.
>>
>>107743609
Since it's CL there's no "real" limitation like that. I expose an interface but that's really just the same API I use in the editor natively, there isn't like a separate extension API.
For example, users have an init.lisp that gets compiled/ran on startup, where they can set their config. If they wanted to they could literally redefine low-level editor functions in there and it would compile/replace the original function. Of course they're not expected to do anything like that, it's just to illustrate how CL works.
Packages are just normal CL libraries that call the same API I use internally, and then they show up on the package browser. All that happens is the systems get loaded on initialization (ASDF precompiles them so it doesn't really affect startup speed, but you can bake them into compilation as well if you want 0 effect on startup). They just define the hooks they want and call e.g. add-command if they're adding a command. Think of it almost like appending source code to the original program, rather than exposing a library that then gets consumed. I'm not generating shared libraries or anything like that.

it's still a locked down platform that is a pain in the ass to support and consumer-hostile, see asahi linux troubles to get everything working on various M generations.
>But now Intel has nearly caught up with ARM performance on its x86 mobile Lunar Lake chips.
yes because arm, x86, riscv, it really does not matter, cpu these days all have some kind of very similar "internal assembly language" that split all the uops into smaller instructions anyways, it's all about design tradeoffs, amd/intel have been making chips with certains loads in mind and apple with others, it's really all there is to it.
I'm glad to see intel and amd getting into this segment too as we definitely need power efficient and performant chips, it's a shame that it will be bga-only, for now amd allow manufacturers to use soldered or dimm ram but I'm not sure it will last as ram speed get faster and faster... maybe camm2 can save us?
I really want socketable efficient chips even if I lose a bit of efficiency as a trade-off, I'm sure there is a good middle-ground atleast for efficient desktop-class computers like the steam machine design-wise or consoles.

>The difference in vibe around computers and technology up until around 2005 cannot be understated
I'd extend that to the late 2000s, because of my zoomer bias and the fact that smartphone faggotry didn't start infecting PCs until around 2011/2012 with GNOME 3 and Windows 8, but yeah that's what I was getting at. Honestly, I've recently found myself questioning whether romanticizing historic computing culture is even justifiable anymore, since we're all witnessing the hellish aftermath of it - the rehashed 2010s /pol/shit from earlier in this thread is a good example - but Cheifet's death feels like a reminder that we need more stubborn autists to carry its torch now more than ever. I don't think I'll ever stop seething over the fact that this industry invested so much time and money into normalizing general-purpose computing in every home and (seemingly) trying to collectively enhance our human potential, just so they could throw it all away in favor of hawking Mossad spyware, smart toilets with ads, vibecoded webshit, and retarded chatbots that magically generate fake cheese pizza instead.

Kek, can totally imagine his shellshock if he were to ever work in the trenches of multi-decade old codebases powering innumerable businesses today.
He'd have a nervous breakdown when he first encounters two processes that are in logical conflict with each another but because of some stupid 3rd process it works out 95% of the time (with the other 5% cases handled manually as they arise) and source control is littered with commits and subsequent reverts of rookies trying quick fixes to clean up the situation... yeah a week max.

I work on a server-side application from the 90's which uses all major Java build systems at the same time, looks as if it tried to implement 3 distinct architectural styles and whose test suite takes at least 7 hours to run on a good day. I don't see a point in hating Jonathan just because he talks shit and enjoys better working conditions.

you already know that for years now, big tech has been paying shills to shit-talk Linux and other FOSS projects
and with all the AI progress, most of the shilling is not done manually any more, it is mostly automated bots

so why not fight fire with fire?
why don't we set up something that scans internet for relevant discussions and automatically makes posts that promote Linux and digital freedom?
