Create Missing RSS Feeds With LLMs

Sun, 27 Apr 2025 19:23:16 +0300

It used to be that blogs all had RSS feeds. Somehow there are more blogs than ever before, but some people do not bother with setting up an RSS feed.

AMD can’t compete with NVidia, so how can we expect geohot to compete with NVidia on AMD hardware?

Well, I’ve been following geohot for a long while. He delivers what he promises, but does it years later and on different hardware than initially promised :) Here’s the timeline of my evolution alongside George that informs my conviction:
