This article is a work of art. Thank you for writing and sharing it. I too have struggled to find something that worked for me for consistent exercise (surprisingly, prepaying for training helped more than I expected), and now I don't

Much of a fan as I am of his works, some of them certainly fall flat. Lock In is a great example; I loved his world building, but both of his first two books felt like it channeled Matlock or CSI with their endings, with exposition and some

Sex? Scalzi barely touches the subject; contrast that with Arthur C. Clark and his, ah, more detailed scenes, or Heinlein. And I've read quite a few of Scalzi's works (including the Empire series). Can you offer a comparison? I do

The translation software isn't a person. It will necessarily take liberty with the source material, possibly even in a non-deterministic fashion, to translate it. Why would it be any different from a LLM as a tool in our definition of

The only reason in many cases other search engines are 'better' at spam is the lack of attention given to it for SEO optimization. It is in many ways akin to saying Macs don't get viruses; rest assured, there are, and as Macs

I suspect this will happen here. We seem to be a long ways off from an actual enforcement. I also assume part of this sudden and intense recommendation is in part due to the upcoming change in power. While the case has been going on for a w

The idea is the average person would, sure. A mathematically oriented person would fair far better. Throw all the math problems you want at a LLM for training; it will still fail if you step outside of the familiar.
