連勞動部都這樣,也太恐怖了。
最近跟老闆去拜訪某一家公司,我在車上提到台積電美國廠良率比台灣高的新聞,他就不想信,還罵西方人太懶,不會凌晨3點跑工廠維修機台,不論事情有多緊他們還是會先把咖啡喝完才動手(這就是我為什麼反對張忠謀的「個人崇拜」)。開會時,我們的夥伴一講到他們公司正在考慮在國外設廠(在日本或是英國),又開始抱怨希望是在日本,因為英國人什麼都不懂,跟他們合作太累。
台灣的工作文化真是需要改革。

Nice! Elin, the successor to Elona, got released on Steam! It is a huge open world roguelike style game with lots of freedom. I hope it's just as quirky as the original game.

As OpenAI and Meta introduce LLM-driven searchbots, I'd like to once again remind people that neither LLMs nor chatbots are good technology for information access.
A thread, with links:
Chirag Shah and I wrote about this in two academic papers:

We also have an op-ed from Dec 2022:

The JetKVM is an inexpensive, small IP KVM with a new twist on an old idea — full remote control for any computer.
I've been testing it for a couple weeks, here is my review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pYfHedjjgw (note: it's a Kickstarter, standard Kickstarter caveats apply!)
I have been reading those comments, and they are quite interesting.
Hackers in the 90s:
- Phreaking
- Hackers manifesto
- Fuck "The Man"
- I wrote a kernel because IBM sucks
- I pwned the CIA
- Fuck closed source software maaan
Hackers in 2024:
- You're no longer my friend because a bureaucrat told me I can't be friends with you
We truly are living in the end of history and the government has replaced God

Some Clarity On The Linux Kernel's "Compliance Requirements" Around Russian Sanctions
Just a notice with my alter account:
Several days ago I hosted my own mastodon instance on masto.host, which I don't know what to do with it.
Now I decide to use it as my alter account. In case it's confusing that seeing someone looks like me is following you again, this is my alter account: @skyblond@m.skyblond.info
The reason I don't want ECC is the cost. I have already blown up my budget with ASUS TUF Gaming motherboard and brand new intel 13th gen i5 because I don't want to gamble on cheap stuff.
I do plan on using those cheap stuff until I saw the comment saying it's frustrating when you have to going back and forth with the customer support team.

I'm planning to build my own NAS and now decide to use Unraid instead of TrueNAS because ECC memory will be important to ZFS compared to other filesystems. (I saw this from a lot of discussions)
My question is why? I know ZFS rely on RAM for caching, but why ZFS is more vulnerable to memory corruptions? And why other systems like unraid and btrfs are not as emphasize ECC memory?
It's quite interesting to see two major voices. People from TrueNAS side suggest you must have ECC memory if you care about your data. But people from unraid side said ECC it's not worth the money.

I also think if I keep a list of hashes when I back up my data, then ECC might not be nessary at all.

I'm a Chinese shitizen, but I generally don't post in Chinese to avoid being suffering from other Chinese.
I'm physically a male, but I don't care how people think about my gender. I can be male, or female, or cat. But if you ask, I'd prefer to be referred to as male. Also, I support LGBT+ people, and I'm a copyleft. I don't think I'm too aggressive in arguing things, but sometimes I do. You should handle it with care.
I post about programming (most time is Java and Kotlin, unless I have a new love), and some random things I find interesting. I also post about my mental health, which is in a stable state of instability, thanks to my parents and Chinese society.
Anyway, if you want to follow me, I'm glad to see you. And, have a nice day.
