Maybe this is true of English for a native, but many other languages make heavy use of it and I wager that carries over. The vast majority of people who speak English are not native speakers, me included, and it feels perfectly natural to u

It's not a good proxy to detect LLM generated text. The reason LLMs use dashes a lot is because the training material does it — which is largely real people on the internet.

Note: the GP comment didn't include the word "weighted" when I made my comment, their edit makes this comment look like nonsense.

A ball that has one flat side can land on two sides: the round side and the flat side. You can easily verify this by cutting an apple in half and putting one half flat side down and the other flat side up.

Also, the absolutely hilarious fact that Jane Street lawyers were instructed not to say the country's name out loud in court to protect trade secrets, yet they utterly failed to do so on multiple occasions.

I don't really think this is the case here. All major browsers already support the new spec for example. This isn't a case of oh we'll have support for it eventually, it's already there.

You don't need IDE support for this, it's all Git under the hood. Your extension can hold virtual branches in memory in the background, feed the file contents to the LLM through that layer and back, and the only problem you need t

There's no reason you couldn't do the same thing as an IDE plugin.

I think in a way this is a good analogy, because it also includes the downside. If you always drive everywhere and do everything by car, your health will suffer due to lack of physical activity.

This doesn't make the point you think it makes. Nuclear power plants are supposed to go offline in unstable grid conditions. This ensures they don't overheat, equipment isn't damaged, and that they can be taken offline in a

Similar to other industries, the water isn't lost per se, but it's deferred. It takes a considerable amount of time for water to do the whole loop and end back where it started, so the more you defer, the less you have available f

You can't really sandbox development dependencies in any meaningful way. I want to throw everything and the kitchen sink into one container per project, not install a specific version of Python, Node, Perl or what have you globally&#x2

> OpenAI reportedly made a loss of $5B in 2024. They also reportedly have 500M MAUs. To reach break-even, they'd just need to monetize those free users for an average of $10/year, or $1/month. A $1 ARPU for a service like

I like the idea, but there's no mention of error correction, manual review or anything similar. Even at say 99% accuracy, which is not realistic with the current state of the art, that's still countless infrastructure documents th

No, it doesn't tell you anything. Someone is consistently delivering half the tickets compared to another person. Are they slow, lazy or etc? Or are they working on difficult tickets that the other person wouldn't even be able to

In the European privacy framework, and legal framework at large, you can't terms of service away requirements set by the law. If the law requires you to keep the logs, there is nothing you can get the user to sign off on to get you out

I'm not really sure this argument makes sense. He held the title for eight years and had numerous serious challengers over that time, so I wouldn't really say he didn't risk it over the board.

Let's not forget that Magnus didn't lose his world champion title, he gave it up willingly after holding the title from 2013 to 2021. All those years where everyone else is focusing specifically on how to defeat him and still comi

Based on the intro video on their website and the linked article, it's an LLM agent for your Mac, so in short, what Apple Intelligence should've been from the very start. Create calendar events, look up information, send messages,

Maybe an alternative perspective helps. If you could always do it over, an infinite redo so to say, nothing would matter. Every choice and outcome would become insignificant, because you could just redo it until it was just right. On the fl

As with any other tool, half the art of using LLMs productively is the ability to recognize when they're a good fit and when they're not. So long as AGI doesn't come around, there will always be cases where they fall on their

At least from my personal perspective, the core difference here is that I use the same tool for all of those different things. Any mature language these days has a solid debugger available, but not jumping between different tools means yo

You can joke about it, but there is absolutely a lot of value in the fact that you can just fire up a debugger against Electron or React or your devtools or Node itself. The "just" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here of course, b

In my opinion, it's a matter of mental framework. Presentations are not meant for a reader, they're meant for an audience, and if you try to make them readable, self contained, you're bound to fail. Presentations work best, o

The whole point of sample sizing is to try and make the sample unbiased. If you're an alien, you don't know anything about your sample. As an example, say the alien wants to know the ratio of female to male lions. They sample one

In a way, containers already run as honeypots with cash or crypto prizes, it's called production code and plenty of people are looking for holes day and night. While this setup sounds like a nice idea conceptually, the monetary incenti

That seems completely orthogonal to the point. Much like elsewhere in drug addiction, the deaths were due to the suppliers' negligence, not the fact that the deceased were addicts.

Important to note that they didn't use xenon for the climb, only for the prepwork, which makes this outcome all the more remarkable. Still, I would feel uneasy if this were to become a trend, as incorrectly administering xenon can lead

This is an easy quip to make, but it's also pretty wrong. 3D printing has been a massive breakthrough in many industries and fundamentally changed the status quo. Aerospace is a good example, much of what SpaceX and other younger upsta
