I found myself looking into the effects of censorship removal from LLMs - particularly the recent popular kid on the block Deepseek R-1. It seems that the model becomes uncooperative against certain topics that don’t align with party doctrine. I came a cross a generic refusals removal repository linked here which made me chuckle - it’s just control vectors fine tuned into the model, which I discussed here.

In reply to admin. Thanks! I ordered some D9 connectors to insert a breadboard between the PC and the monitor and start taking some measurements. Then see if I can create a 0-0.7V signal and then add a ADC. I plan to post my progress on the vcfed forum. If I get stuck and need your help, I will reach out to you.

This post isn’t about the virtues of some editors versus others: that's already been written by somebody else (and it’s really good) – if you want to know why I use emacs, I suggest reading that instead. This post will help you understand why "extensibility" and "introspectability" are such prominent emacs features even without an emacs lisp background. Bridging the gap from spacemacs or doom emacs to a bespoke configuration w....

In this tutorial, we’re going to walk step by step through creating an npm package using modern best practices (as of 2022).

Yesterday, v0.12.3 of RGBMatrixEmulator released , featuring mainly non-functional changes around automated testing and a new CI pipeline that runs in GitHub Actions. For those not familiar with RGBME, here’s the full context . Long story short, it’s an emulator for Raspberry Pi HUB75 LED matrices. In the last few RBME releases I accidentally caused a a few bugs, so I set out to write some tests to help me avoid that in the future. It e....

Introduction In part 1 we took a high-level view on serialization and JSON. In this part, we’ll roll our sleeves and start working with JSON, focused on emitting JSON. You might think this is a basic topic, but there is much more to it than just calling json.Marshal. json.Marshal vs json.Encoder The encoding/json package has two main APIs: Marshal and NewEncoder. The Marshal function returns a []byte while the NewEncoder function will ..

I’m trying to reason about the behavior of this code, and I can’t decide if this is a stroke of genius or if I’m suffering from a stroke. Take a look at the code, and then I’ll discuss what I’m trying to do below: HANDLE hFile = CreateFileA ( "R:/original_file.bin" , GENERIC_READ | GENERIC_WRITE, FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE, NULL, OPEN_ALWAYS, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, NULL ) ; if ( hFile == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE ) ....

Ernst-Jan Pfauth deelt op zijn blog een stukje uit een interview met schrijfster Safae el Khannoussi die het volgende zegt: “Ik weet dat als ik eerst opsta, me ga aankleden, ontbijten en wandelen, ik niet meer in die concentratie kom. Ik wil die opwinding niet kwijtraken.”  Dus als je in bed al meteen begint met je belangrijkste taken begin je de dag goed. Slim!


In reply to Jan de Lange. Yes, buying an ADC (shouldn't be expensive) would be the best option, especially if you have 16 shades of grey. (If you find that you actually only have (e.g.) three or four different levels, you could probably still implement it using discrete transistors without too much effort. This i..

Can Rust replace C? This is a question that has been on my mind for many years, as I created and now am tech lead for upb , a C library for Protocol Buffers. There is an understandable push to bring memory safety to all parts of the software stack, and this would suggest a port of upb to Rust. While I love the premise of Rust, I have long been skeptical that a port of upb to Rust could preserve the performance and code size characteris....

I already tried to write a blog post about AI. An article, discussing AI generated art, still festers in my drafts folder. As someone who enjoys 3D modelling, drawing, animating, someone who believes in art lifting our spirits, I find it pointless and distasteful. Not much to discuss. Here are some loose thoughts about AI, mostly from software development perspective, but not unique to it. I see coding as both a skill, which enables me ..

Hi, these are all very valid points! 1) It is actually a 16 colors gray scale signal. So I am looking into a simple but fast ADC that can make it digital. 2) Level shifting and voltage change may indeed be required. I was told the output voltage ranges between -3 to +7V. But I'm not sure if this was measured with the monitor connected! So I may have to measure myself. 3) I found an IC that is designed for video level shifting. I posted it ..

Salutations, I hope all of you are having an excellent day. I was reading the MDN documentation regarding Canvas, and when I got to the animations section, I came across something I already knew but was terrified to accept: It's all about Math. It actually makes sense because, if you think about it, many successful computer scientists are or were mathematicians at heart (e.g. Mr. Guido van Rossum has a master's degree in Mathematic....
