Anybody here using mastodon regularly? What instance are you on? I can't decide on where to register 😅

I'm using mastodon.social but i think you can look the instances in their site and decide by interest.

There's a really good one run by someone in the Netherlands. He forked the software and made a ton of improvements. I was on there six years ago. I wish I could remember the name.

replied to:

Ah! Qoto.org! It looks like it might be gone now though :/

I decided to use mstdn.social/@zbr - I like that’s it’s not too crowded and has a 500 word limit.

After everything's awake and a good kind of sore. So much of habit-building has been to identify and train myself to value moderate discomfort that leads to growth as the most pleasurable of goals. Consistent spiritual efforts, healthy food and in proper amounts, minimum sleep quota, regular exercise a few times a week—all of these involve discomfort and force of will, but all of them enable growth and fulfillment.

még csak barátkozom azzal a gondolattal, hogy a Gemma 4 miatt először is Windows 11 lesz a gépen (meg hogy Szentmihályon presszó lesz), ezért nehéz elkezdeni

I'm still getting used to the idea that because of Gemma 4, I'll have Windows 11 on my computer first (and that there will be a presso in Szentmihály), so it's hard to get started.

I'm looking for a way to manage my bookmarks easily on desktop and Android. Anyone have any experience with software like that? It'd be nice to be able to tag or categorize pages, and maybe to keep local mirrors for certain ones. I'm open to self-hosting. Thanks for reading!

replied to:

I've stopped managing bookmarks after del.icio.us died - now i just hit the browser star but they seem to disappear and never visit them again, apart from the most recent. The situation sucks really. I'm also interested in a good solution.

ive been rocking my thinkpad 460s since 2018 or so, but ive just recently yolo purchased a chunky t420 for 80€. I gotta say this is the best laptop ive ever used, keyboard/io is unmatched and it still runs super snappy on omarchy right now, even with only 4 gigs of ram :D AND this thing has a cd drive!

replied to:

its sad that newer models gradually lose features and quality... I love Thinkpads, but I cannot imagine myself using one 10 years from now...

replied to:

yea its insane to me how feature rich these old business machines were, nowadays every laptop just looks the same and kinda sucks. if you have the money and still love the old formfactor, you can consider upgrading to an aftermarket board: www.tpart.net/about-x210ai/

what an odd summer it must be for mathematicians.

replied to:

Interesting. Why?

replied to:

It seems this year is when big budget LLM players overtake independent academic mathematicians, in speed at least. The Jacobian conjecture, a lot of Erdos problems, now even the Navier Stokes millenium problem. Solved due to new model releases, all within this summer.

continued:

model releases or internal research by the big AI labs*

replied to:

So, can we now say that LLMs are able to do things that nobody has done before? Can they extrapolate?

…

replied to:

in math it can definitely prove statements that havent been proven before. I dont think thats the big thing though since it also writes sentences nobody has ever written before and in software it can write programs that havent been written before. Its just that the speed and scalability that has overtaken human mathematicians and programmers

I forgot that I was at work and did my big sneeze, not the work sneeze. The one where a startled deer looks straight into the camera, which then zooms out to a flock of pigeons taking off, and a crow makes a warning noise. Someone dropped something in the adjacent lab. I hope it wasn't my fault.

Just read a really interesting article on Japanese geography and history and it made me realise despite how great the Japanese are at adapting to a changing world they actually don’t have much of a history of being the centre of that innovation unchartedterritories.tomaspueyo.com/…/how-japans-geography-determined-its

Gave up on github after the acquisition. Very glad I did, given the unsurprising decline since then.

replied to:

And what do you use now?

replied to:

Some gitlab, some codeberg. More recently the latter as gitlab have an annoying tendency to mess with their UI for no discernible reason.

I think is time to vibecode an alternative! I know I would

github.com/Aeres-u99 I have created a small tool, codeatlas, that basically generates an index to codebase that your llm can lookup syper quick, github.com/Aeres-u99 there is also a cbz->pdf converter that I wrote for eink devices which is nice
