Seems weird to me (from nowhere near SF) that some of the cheapest things to do are to block fire stations, fire hydrants and 'fire lanes' (I assume that's like a bus lane but for fire engines, in places that's common en

State (in this sense at least) isn't word/token parsing progress, it's comprising all the input and any context (which may include the entire chat history for example).

It's interesting though isn't it, because if she contracts someone good, the ghostwriter does an excellent job of imitating her style, then really you do get exactly what you wanted? I don't like the idea of it either, fwiw,

I'm not at all discounting the value of rallying a community around one configuration - I just think dotfiles could have been the distribution mechanism, and it would be as valuable given the same community around it.

'Embellishment' seems absolutely standard for a novel, some authors more than others, and it's exactly what you're taught to do clumsily in school. The actions in the train scene didn't seem so bizarre to me, and ev

It's older than AI, I think people do it because it seems to work - where 'work' means builds hype and 'community' and GitHub stars fast.

Not having heard of either of these before, but now seeing z linked by sibling comment too, I would guess 'z oxide' is a Rust re-implementation of z.

Who would make it? Do the likes of Broadcom have the vision & ambition to push into that class? I could see it happening if AMD decided Arm was the way to progress, but that would be bold too. (AMD does already have an architecture lice

Thousands of people share their dotfiles though, there's just no need for it to be its own Arch-derivative distribution. Could've just been 'here are my dotfiles, works best on Arch'.

The Arch installer even prompts you to ask if you want to add various common stuff (and you can of course add anything else).

They're one and the same? Without the 'default packaging of shit-load of unnecessary apps' you have a 1.4GB Arch image.

Not really, it's a significant place which is why the protest (and hence massacre) was there, so especially for Chinese people (I expect) merely referencing it doesn't so immediately refer to the massacre, they have plenty of ot

But that's not done for human readability, that's done for machine parsing? A human would understand just as well: props: mime_type: "text/html", encoding: "gzip" # Inline dict.

Ok, now make the 'redundancy' argument with anything other than `env` or `permissions`. I think they should be supported because it's surprising and confusing if you start saying 'actually, it's a proprietary subset

Something like the mock one here I think is really more often largely intended as a sort of logbook entry, a note to self, 'how I did x' (in case it breaks, I need to do it again, update it), it isn't really 'for me&#x27

Like I said you do need a grasp of the subject matter still, but I think if the exam changed a bit to something you should technically be able to work out with the same knowledge, but isn't what's expected, a lot of people would s

All these Cambridge alumni with this dodgy Latin, 'smh'! You're an alumnus, or identifying as an alumna! (Identifying as many alumni at a stretch, but then still not ' a Cambridge alumni'.) (alumnus not of Cambridg

I may have an overly STEM-centric view, but I don't think Yale has anything like the reputation of MIT internationally. I'm only really aware of it from Americans (in Hollywood, newsletters, etc.) being impressed by lawyers'

I started by saying progress today seems more industrial (vs. academic) - if you fall down the same trap of naming a single figurehead, then yeah, that is people like Musk & Bezos. I too have more respect for Turing.

Sure they'll never have quite the same cachet, but it's the same anywhere - UCLA/Stanford/Yale are extremely respected but nevertheless not Harvard or MIT. No doubt someone more familiar would say not all IITs are equal,

I applied to MIT from the UK 15 years ago, I'm fairly sure I'm not among whom you mean by 'the wealthy'. (I failed the alumnus interview; failed STEP mathematics exam to meet accepted Cambridge offer; went to Imperial.)

They must have meant the brand Bakfiets. 'Cargo bike' is what they're known as, in my experience in the UK anyway, and 'bakfiets cargo bike' would be redundant if not meaning the brand.

Almost nothing is advertised as part time, but way more than 1% would be happily accomodating if you asked to reduce to x days/week, I think. Especially for people coming to that decision while in the job, vs. negotiating for it in an

Fair point, I don't print enough (nevermind change material often enough) that it's such a bother that I thought of it. I expected the argument to be keeping it dry, to which I'd have said a drybox and/or dehumidifier is
