1/ Meet the Turing RK1 Compute Module! A dream that once seemed distant is now closer than ever. Since Turing Pi 1, we were already dreaming about creating our own CM, but the complexity of the project seemed unattainable. Well, guess what? We just got our first prototype today!

Finally upgrading the ol' gaming machine. Moving back to AMD from a very long Intel stint. It's like it's 2002 all over... Except with a lot more cores, changes and GHZ

Me: Can you draw a very normal image? ChatGPT: Here is a very normal image depicting a tranquil suburban street scene during the daytime. Me: Not bad, but can you go more normal than that? (cont.)

I think that next year I might leave twitter. The only time it's ever been faintly useful in real life was the time that Jim Vaughn came bounding up to me at a conference because he recognised me from twitter. That was a cool day. Hope you're doing great big man

I'm very sad about this. I was a huge admirer and actually much preferred the Pascal/Modula/Oberon languages to the C family of languages. I read his books in great detail. And I used Modula-2 and Oberon for both videogames and Codeplay's first compiler

In our view X doesn’t comply with the DSA in key transparency areas. It misleads users, fails to provide adequate ad repository and blocks access to data for researchers. It’s the first time we issue preliminary findings under the Digital Services Act. 👇 europa.eu/!CGPVCV

IntelliJ IDEA Tip 💡 SDKMAN! is an amazing tool to install different versions of JDK, Maven, Gradle, JBang, etc. You can use ".sdkmanrc" file to specify which versions of SDKs you want to use and run "sdk env" to activate those versions in the current shell. java=21-tem
