> Some people approach LLMs like they're writing code. They give a long list of detailed instructions for specific scenarios. When I use LLMs I leave things as open as possible. I just give them the information they need and my ask.

Hm, but thats ok right? I mean some people like to code with LLM and other people like to let LLM code for them.. no?

NetBSD is the only Unix that IMO still fun to hack on.. no AI, just hack..


its also an incredibly large codebase compared to the other bsds


True, but a lot of that size comes from supporting an absurd number of architectures and platforms... That’s also part of what makes NetBSD fun to hack on, IMO.


this is impressive too

"We have since added more than 3 million CPU cores, 120 petabytes of high-speed storage, and significant network capacity"


> Isn't the author allowed to write code with Claude?

Just to make it correctly: Author isn't writing code with Claude. Claude is writing code for the Author. Nothing wrong with that. But that's how it is.


A modern 1877 scale event would probably immediately fuel (pun intended) a furious climate change debate, even though attributing the existence of the El Niño itself to fossil fuels would not be scientifically justified... or maybe was the 1877 El Niño caused by fossil fuels (so many Wars happened in those years) ?


Nobody in planet modelling has ever suggested that the 3 phase El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) exists because of fossil fuel usage.

An extreme swing, here and there, has always been part of its nature.

The observed change is more and more extreme swings, greater amplitude, higher frequency.


> Nobody in planet modelling has ever suggested that the 3 phase El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO)

We saw already around 2020 or so that specialists opinions didn't really matter. Feelings and politicians opinions were more relevant... so "nobody in planet modelling" means nothing if Politicians and Activists tries to create this link..

Al Gore, if I remember correctly, and António Guterres, i think last month, tried to create this link already.. probably others too?


I can't speak to what former US vice presidents and UN politicians may or may not have said, I've not seen Gore's movie, I don't watch UN speeches.

I have spent a few decades in exploration geophysics at world scale; gravity, tides, radiometrics, upward & downward continuations of magnetic fields, etc is more my speed.

I suspect you may have some confusion, trapped heat from the sun's visible light drives ENSO (a kind of delayed oscillator with noise) and so human added insulation trapping more heat drives ENSO harder (like pushing a kid on a swing harder) but human activity didn't create ENSO - the atmospheric climate cells and swing sets were already there long before humans first planted crops.


It honestly blows my mind y’all are still around and up to the same ol tricks. Let me guess: you’re still mad about the hockeystick?


The most anti-facts and anti reality bulshit comes from people who mock feelings and opinions while framing themselves as factual and u biases.

Especially in climate change "debate".


or the said "experts" hungry for media attention.. we saw it all


I have no idea who you are talking about.

You want to imply doubt about climate change without saying it, using dog whistles and vague accusations of "feelings".

You did not stated a single fact, you apparently dont know much about topic, but you know some experts and politicians opinions are wrong.


Tell us facts. Who’s facts are these facts.


Facts? 42 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide are released into the atmosphere by humans every year changing the atmosphere composition from ~300 ppm 100 years ago to ~420 ppm today. CO2 Is chemically stable in the atmosphere and can persist for centuries. CO2 catches thermal radiation from the earth and traps it.

These are all scientific facts that are indisputable. We can also show that its a fact heat affects weather and its not a very far stretch to trapping more heat every year with more CO2 affects global weather. Trapping more heat across the globe AKA global warming are indisputable facts. We can measure CO2 levels every year and global temperature trends.

Doesnt matter who says it, there's a ton of peer reviewed science for every statement there. What's to dispute?


in one hand i wanted to highlight that if it was today, we - as civilization - would definitely create a link between the events, based on our "feeling"

in another hand, i question if we really could rule out, since back in the days, everything that we have was coal.


If you care to get analytic, it's related to the insulation factor of the atmosphere, fairly consistent amounts of sunlight in (subject to know solar variation and orbit) that heats land and sea surface radiating thermal energy out to space with a "small" amount trapped to maintain a globally mean amount of energy that powers climate cells and cascades into other forms.

The global amount of coal use in the 1880s was non zero, sure, but overall the CO2 emissions from those tonnages were minuscule compared to modern emissions within the past 50 years .. and we have direct libraries of atmosphere created since the early years of the Cold War and many pocket captures for the past 200 years, with proxies (such as ice core bubbles) going back far longer.

ENSO predates heavy coal use - so it's not something created by human activity, and as noted the first uses of coal were barely enough to move the needle (recall that collieries kept records so we have a fair handle on tonnages extracted).


And you're saying that, based in you "feeling"? Nice.


are you really comparing Politics based on feeling with a HN comment? lol


[flagged]


Near as I can parse that question, I'd suggest you start with intro calculus and physics, look into heat equations, springs and pendulums.

Level up into delayed oscillators, then look into those models with added noise.

It's a big field.


Ah, “go and educate yourself” argument never ceases to amaze me.

You seem to know. Why don’t you prepare educational data and educate people instead of “go figure it out”. If each and everyone has to “go and figure it out”, I’m not surprised almost nobody cares. People are just tired of hearing it. They don’t even know what the correct question is!


> So what do we do about it?

I just hope that politicians don't jump in and say "we know how to fix it", because unfortunately where they put their hands, they just make things worse (regardless of which country)

if their mother language is english. For my kids, mother language German, is much harder to consume such content. Both are doing well in math olympics and similar contests, but i still miss such evolving kind of content like 3Blue1Brown or Brilliant.com in German...


Sorry the question, i watched shortly your videos, i see you vibe-coding it in an emulator.. but did you try it in a real hardware? With real floppy disks?


Yes, you can see the hardware we tested here: https://www.os8088.com/hardware


I'm intrigued by how it runs on those machines in terms of performance. Maybe you have some real-time videos?


I wish someone with a Book 8088 or a Pocket 386 would give this a go and report back.

How are we supposed to trust that photo, when you've already demonstrated that you're happy to use AI and call it "hand-written."
