I was quite disappointed then, but I realized years later, that there's a camp of people who need that kind of Desktop EnvironmentIt's one of the reasons why I stopped using GNOME alongside KDE and EnlightenmentFor me Enlightenment is still wonderfully beautiful. Luckily KDE can still be tuned all the way down to the pixel<a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/ui" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#UI</a> <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/design" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#design</a> <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/consistency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#consistency</a> <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/opensource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenSource</a> <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#programming</a> <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/enlightenment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Enlightenment</a> <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/kde" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#KDE</a> <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/gnome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GNOME</a>

Dendrobatus Azureus<a href="https://polymaths.social/@rl_dane" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@rl_dane</a>I would take it a step further and say that all Operating Systems need user interfaces at least two, which are not based on ideologies.When I need to work on a Closed Source machine, I'm bound to the user interface that's provided there. Luckily most of my work can be done in a shell so I can install <code>git </code>which brings along the fantastic shell git bash.Now why do I say two user interfaces and not one. From my perspective the user interface world is divided into two major campsCamp zeroThis is that where I reside,<ul><li>I want to be able to tune the user interface all the way down to the pixel</li><li>I want to be able to set up events when I trigger certain widgets</li><li>I want total UI control</li></ul>I need all that freedomCamp OneThere are other people who want<ul><li>The user interface dictates the look, functions, events</li><li><ul><li>sometimes so explicitly that you can't even change it at all or easily</li></ul></li><li>Almost zero config</li></ul>Both type of users need a user interface which is agnostic to the operating system where it runs uponPeople who run Gnome often think like that. Let the user interface do what it wants they can get their work doneSince when did GTK get ideological, can you link me a reference?<a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/ui" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#UI</a> <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/design" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#design</a> <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/consistency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#consistency</a> <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/opensource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenSource</a> <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#programming</a>

BGDonSunday let's GEEK on!! Oh boy, let's get after "nondeterminism", "kernel batch-invariant", and "floating-point non-associativity". Researchers at Thinking Machines Lab are looking to tackle "Defeating Nondeterminism in LLM Inference" in this recent blog post. The post is trying to help other LLM providers address nondeterminism in inference systems and to encourage work to develop a full understanding of their systems. <a href="https://thinkingmachines.ai/blog/defeating-nondeterminism-in-llm-inference/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://thinkingmachines.ai/blog/defeating-nondeterminism-in-llm-inference/</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/LLMs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LLMs</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/ThinkingMachinesLabs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ThinkingMachinesLabs</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Consistency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Consistency</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Inference" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Inference</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Nondeterminism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Nondeterminism</a>

DopeGhotiWhen driving, I was suddenly struck by a realization that there is one (more) thing about me that has been consistent going all the way back to my childhood.Back in my junior high school days, my mother once (without my awareness or consent) arranged for me to have an "under-the-table" job getting paid $20 a week during the winter to get up early enough to stop on the way to school and sweep the snow from the entry area of a (admittedly rad) local bakery. She was very upset and confused when I said I was not interested, calling me lazy and inconsiderate.What she did not understand, and what remains true about me to this day, is that I would gleefully pay $4 a day to get another hour in bed before having to get up.Did I also make it a point thenceforth to stop in on my way to school to pick up a donut partially out of spite? Yes, yes I did. Because I'd also have paid $5 a day for more sleep, and their donuts were cheap.<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Consistency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Consistency</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Memories" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Memories</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Priorities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Priorities</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/HarmlessSpite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HarmlessSpite</a>
