The asker thought they were. They were not. The internet is big and human memories are not. As an aside, I’m really starting to hate these threads on here, people are constantly reading words that aren’t there in search of gotcha-it’s-skyne

I’m saying that people in my circle have been asking what they think are novel questions and getting interesting answers, only to find out that very similar content exists on websites we know are in the training set. That’s not intelligence

Thus the words “isn’t generally” as opposed to “cannot be”.

I have talked with not a few women about this, and it always breaks down around not liking the look of the clothes with the pockets. Largely because of what the pockets do to the silhouette of the clothes. I invite you to do this experiment

One important intuition about gzip vs snappy is that gzip isn’t generally parallelizable, while snappy is. If your Hadoop cluster is storing enormous files this shows up very quickly in read performance.

… and then perform a careful search of books and the whole internet to be sure what you think is novel hasn’t been thoroughly debated somewhere on stackexchange.

Most reporters of novel bugs get misunderstood by people overly aggressively pattern matching on similar closed bugs and then gaslit.

The irony of this response on a thread about how Linux support on the internet always devolves to condescending “it works for me” is delicious. The bug to which I refer has been open for over a year and is well replicated on my hardware and

Interesting, and what should people do if they are unable to understand that others experiences can and do differ from their own? As of an hour ago, plugging a trrs headset into the jack on my laptop breaks audio until I go kick the daemon.

When I interview for a job I always ask my prospective manager about the is. “What’s your process for getting status updates during a crisis”. This question is graded pass/fail.

We’ve achieved recursion. Edit: how can something be “technically” true if the word has no definition?

That is the point that gp is making. Many has no definition and many (see what I did there?) disagree about where it’s appropriate.

Huh? How does someone else’s possession of a LLM threaten your personal freedom? How does training your own counteract that? They’re not Pokémon…

No. These things take time. If you’re going to indict a former president who has declared that he is going to run again you need to be totally sure about your case. It’s not what you know, it’s what you can prove. Does it suck that it’s tak

This is a bug in AAD, which is a very different thing than AD. There is some interoperability between them (ok more than some) but needing AD for legacy auth doesn’t necessarily mean you need AAD for Oauth.

Wiz.io is a cloud security company which directly competes with Microsoft’s own offerings. They do this type of research as a marketing expense.

Disagree. The overwhelming amount of software being written is almost entirely plagiarizable from stack overflow or GitHub. It will need to be slightly reworked, but that’s it. The real trick is figuring out how to ask your copilot for the

It’s like $30/season for what is probably 1000s of hours of work, is that really not worth it? Edit: or pay for one month of streaming for like 10% of that cost if it’s about the money. This is why there isn’t (and won’t be) an upscale

I’m not really looking for clients at the moment, and that’s also something you should try to tackle in person. That said, I don’t think you need my help, just try doing things. It might be uncomfortable at first but you’ll get there.

Is English not your first language? You keep saying “addressed” but from context you mean “ignored”. Hope that helps.

That is such a hilarious oversimplification and overstatement of the “sages from antiquity” that I can only respond that you should go and actually read some of them. The balance and give and take will be surprising and a good use of your t

You’re thinking about it wrong. How many people that you knew when you were 17 would have become programmers if the current resources existed. See also: survivorship bias.
