In-reply-to » Over the past few weeks I've been experimenting with and doing some deep learning and researching into neutral networks and evolutionary adaptation of them. The thing is I haven't gotten very far. I've been able to build two different approaches so far with limited results. The frustrating part is that these things are so "random" it isn't even funny. Like I can't even get a basic ANN + GA to evolve a network that solves the XOR pattern every time with high levels of accuracy. 😞

This is one of my attempts:

$ go build ./cmd/xor/... && ./xor
Generation  95 | Fitness: 0.999964 | Nodes: 9   | Conns: 19
Target reached!

Best network performance:
  [0 0] → got=0 exp=0 (raw=0.000) ✅
  [0 1] → got=1 exp=1 (raw=0.990) ✅
  [1 0] → got=1 exp=1 (raw=0.716) ✅
  [1 1] → got=0 exp=0 (raw=0.045) ✅
Overall accuracy: 100.0%

Jwno: a highly customisable tiling WM for Windows built with Janet

In-reply-to » @thecanine @movq So I actually agree with you! I think Dustin is taking a bit of a "deep and dark" path here (depression), and there are many parallels to other types of activities that we can all talk to. "AI" or "LLM"(s) here should be no different. Use them, Don't use them. I don't really see how it takes away our creativity or critical thinking.

@bender@twtxt.net @prologic@twtxt.net Jokes aside, I don’t think that’s the right approach either. We had spell checkers, since I can remember, as well as other tools, like the smart image select, used mostly to remove backgrounds. These are tools, that just simplify the process of either opening up a dictionary and looking up a word, you can’t remember the spelling of, or the process of placing a billion little dots around the part of an image you want to select - none of these are creative or enjoyable tasks, we already had tools for them, decades before AI. I don’t think we need to go back to cave paintings, to be free of AIs influence on our creative work.

Buying a TV these days, means trying to avoid endless enshitification:
-Spyware and adware
-Shitty AI upscaling/ frame interpolation
-HW that breaks after 2 - 3 years
-One off OS, dead on arrival
-Android OS, that starts lagging after the third update
-8 buttons worth of ads, on your remote

You probably have to make some kind of a compromise. I thought that was buying from some other brand like Hyundai, but that one also felt into some of those categories and just broke, after less than 3 years of use. At this point I’ll probably go back to LG and hope their HW is still reliable and the rest manageable… It has AI bullshit and knowing LG, probably some spyware you have to try your best to get rid of, can buy a remote with “only” 2 ads on it, some web-based OS shared between all their TVs, that usually gets 4 - 5 years worth of updates and works decently enough afterwards.

At this point, I’ll probably settle for anything that doesn’t literally fall apart, not even 3 years in, like the Hyundai did.

Also spent the morning continuing to think about a new design for EdgeGuard’s WAF. I’m basically going to build an entirely new pluggable WAF that will be designed to only consider Rate Limiting, IP/ASN-based filtering, JavaScript challenge handling, Basic behavioral analysis and Anomaly detection.

The only part of this design I’m not 100% sure about is the Javascript-based challenge handling? 🤔 I’m also considering making this into a “proof of work” requirement too, but I also don’t want to falsely block folks that a) turn Javascript™ off or b) Use a browser like links, elinks or lynx for example.

Hmmm 🧐

Which AI “arena” is the one we can actually trust?
I’m getting deeper and deeper into the AI space, and I’m discovering the different AI “arenas” and benchmarking. I have no idea what to trust or leverage to help me learn about the different models out there. Does the lobste.rs community have one that they go to by default? ⌘ Read more

Sometimes things go wrong when buying CDs second-hand. I bought an album quite cheap – but as it turned out, they only checked the cover, not the content, so I got something else instead which is actually much more expensive. 🤣

Microsoft changes pre-production driver signing, ends the device metadata service
As the headline suggests, we’re going to be talking about some very dry Windows stuff that only affects a relatively small number of people, but for those people this is a big deal they need to address. If you’re working on pre-production drivers that need to be signed, this is important to you. The Windows Hardware Program supports partners signing drivers for use in pr … ⌘ Read more

Redox gets services management, completes userspace process manager
Can someone please stop these months from coming and going, because I’m getting dizzy with yet another monthly report of all the progress made by Redox.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz No no, it’s just barks at the slightest thing going on around the neighborhod 😃 like it just goes a bit nuts often 🤣 it was a rescue dog, two years old, and it wasn’t treated very well, a street dog. I think it’s just basically afraid of every human in the world 😢

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev

You need break the routine.

I haven’t really done that lately. 🤔 Maybe have another go at Rust (given its increasing importance in the Linux kernel)? Or Elixir, yes, I only had some very, very brief contact with it. 🤔

I just came across an old forum posting of mine about Prolog. That brought up some memories. Prolog is pretty alien, but I do miss stuff like that because it’s so different.

Just thinking out loud here. 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org there are times that it works out to reply to the “flat” conversation, if it fully relates, or the participants are few, or if the strict topic is kept. When there are too many people, or too many topics being spit out, then forking constantly is the way to go. I am a strong proponent of forking. It’s like telling the rest, “you debate that there, I will take this one aside”.

Run x86-64 games on RISC-V with felix86
If RISC-V ever manages to take off, this is going to be an important tool in RISC-V users’ toolbox: felix86 is an x86-64 userspace emulator for RISC-V. felix86 emulates an x86-64 CPU running in userspace, which is to say it is not a virtual machine like VMware, rather it directly translates the instructions of an application and mostly uses the host Linux kernel to handle syscalls. Currently, translation happens during execution time, also known as jus … ⌘ Read more

US court eviscerates Apple’s malicious compliance, claims company lied under oath several times

As we have come to expect from Apple, the company maliciously complied, lowering the commission on pur … ⌘ Read more
