Ah, hadn’t heard that, and I see there’s a TechCrunch article about it: https://techcrunch.com/2026/03/22/cursor-admits-its-new-coding-model-was-built-on-top-of-moonshot-ais-kimi/
Only 1/4th of the training was from Kimi, though, even though the model id evidently says it’s Kimi. 🙄
Nvidia’s middle finger to China is the reason they’ve developed open weight models like Qwen 3.6 27B that have modest compute requirements with performance catching up to frontier models. They have plenty of motivation to give Nvidia the middle finger right back, and I fully anticipate that a couple years from now, we will see Chinese open models on par with frontier models while also having inexpensive Chinese hardware to run them.
A pillory would be a good start. Then all the Amazon drivers can line up and dump their piss bottles in his face.
It Is Difficult to Get a Man to Understand Something When His Salary Depends Upon His Not Understanding It
I’d imagine this applies even more to billionaires who make the average person’s salary every minute.
Yeah, whatever bias and censorship Micro$lop’s search index has, except supposedly without the tracking. It’s a step up from Google and Bing, but not the perfect solution.
I wouldn’t know because I mainly use DuckDuckGo and haven’t had a reason to use Google in a long time.
I think software subscriptions are a scam, but I don’t mind buying a perpetual license that is only good up to a certain version with additional fees for newer versions. It’s also fair to charge a recurring fee for something that has recurring hosting costs like a VPN, cloud storage, etc.
If they weren’t such dipshits, the “lifetime pass” should have been a perpetual license you can keep using as long as you want, but charge an optional fee for newer versions if you want to upgrade and get more features. They should also have offered a hosted service to make your instance available to others and charge a monthly fee for that. I think people would’ve been fine with all that.
Good point, although on the local scale you mention, wildlife could still be impacted. Hopefully, the overall impact on the ecosystem will be monitored and studied before expanding these data centers more broadly.
I guess anyone who uses ShitLocker is shit out of LUKS.
I run k3s on a single node and it’s not really that much more overhead than Docker Compose if you understand k8s. I mostly have a deployment.yaml, service.yaml, ingress.yaml, and network-policy.yaml for each service that I’ve copy / pasted and updated. Here are some of the benefits over Docker Compose for my setup:
Has a built-in Traefik reverse proxy / ingress controller so I can access my services by domain name instead of by port, like http://jellyfin.lan/, http://forgejo.lan/ (using local dns on my OpenWRT router)
I use the Calico CNI so I can have network policies for each service to allow them to access only what they need. If a service doesn’t need internet access, it doesn’t get it.
I use Bitnami Sealed Secrets to store my secrets in YAML files that can be safely stored in git
ConfigMaps make it easy to manage configuration files
Easier to have separate YAML files for each service while sharing a network between them. Services connect to each other like http://forgejo.forgejo.svc.cluster.local/
Of course, if you’re looking to load balance across multiple machines, k3s makes even more sense.
Edit:
k8s is the clear industry standard for container orchestration at this point, so if you want something beyond Compose, a lightweight k8s distribution like k3s is an obvious choice.

I run Mint on a HTPC currently, but it might be worth switching to a different distro for this.
We are planning to join the Plasma release schedule starting with Plasma 6.7 (in June), which will make it possible for distributions to ship it in their repositories.
I’m imagining it will only be available in rolling release distros for a while.
I assume Valve would prefer everyone use Steam.
I can see laying off the dead weight dipshits who are holding everyone else back. My company does layoffs every year, and while I think it’s shitty overall, my team did rejoice when a particular middle manager got the axe.
The article has specific advice about how to make sure the layoffs are a wise decision before cutting the jobs. In the movie, Office Space, they had consultants interviewing everyone and determining who is adding value or not. I guess those were the good ol’ days and now we’ve gotten to the point where the only consideration is whether this will make the numbers look good this quarter.
Maybe make regulations to limit the degree to which any car sold can spy on citizens? Nah, let’s limit competition so U.S. companies can keep making huge profits from inferior cars that still spy on everyone with no need to up their game.
Correction: 99% of CEOs are planning to use AI as an excuse to layoff employees to juice quarterly profits. They have zero accountability and golden parachutes, so no skin off of their asses.
