One malicious script that is run right after install vs one per each API entry point that might be called or not (transitive dependency).

Are there other merits than availability of literals in C? It seems like one of the worst data structures ever - lookup complexity of a linked list with a expansion complexity of an array list with security problems added as a bonus.

They are saying something similar to "LLM has no soul", depending on context it might something insightful or (in technical/scientific context) they are making fool of themselves.

The biggest benefit of term "consciousness" is that when I see something like "LLMs are not conscious" I immediately know that the author doesn't know what he is talking about.

So no CSS files at all? Only inline styles?

They often require quite complex ifology for simple use cases. Also didmount and diduptade often needs to be overriden together only to have almost the same implementation. They also have some gotchas regarding state updating inside them.

Hooks made simple things simpler, but hard things harder, code with lots of boilerplate was replaced with code with leaky abstractions full of various workarounds - I don't think this is a good trade. While I hate class component lifec

You are contradicting yourself: either presentation is not important so LLM use does not matter (as long as core message is still there), or it is important and and LLM can change how the message is received (by improving presentation or ma

All take Waymo dedicated taxi - it sucks just like cars in heavy traffic. All take Waymo shared taxi/minibus - it is better than current mass transit and almost as good as car during low traffic.

We are not talking about "transformer algorithms" we are talking about LLMs. And we don't know exactly why they work so well. If you do please share it with the world, lots of scientists would love to hear about it. As for co

I didn't write they were equal. I wrote they are similar in many ways. Comparing LLM to humans make much more sense than comparing them to computer programs.

by Sankozi 6mo ago
I have opposite view - LLMs have many similarities with humans. Human, especially poorly trained one, could have made the same mistake. Human after amnesia could have found similar reasons to that LLM. While LLM generate "plausible te

Who is they? Java has moved past those promise based API and avoided async/await mistake.

Social media are made addictive, they often promote negative, often fake posts to drive their engagement goals.

Excessive phone usage is only a minor part of the problem. Toxicity of social media is the main one.

Privacy and freedom are not the same thing. You can have lots of freedom with low level of privacy, but it's impossible to high privacy and high freedom at the same time.

- Harmful effects are known, that is why those laws are created. - How is a parent going to take phones of their kid's friends? That is the main problem - your kid is going to be pressured to have a social media account. They even can

Your post is great example of 4D chess arguments. They seem believable at first glance but if you look deeper they either don't make sense (like vice president taking role of a clown to lower support of an ally) or are distraction (the

First lets handle single summer day using renewables + storage (California is slowly getting there). Then we can talk about seasonal problems.

This is possible but requires lots of money and oversight. I have never heard about scheme like that that replaced private investors. But as a way to offset some RC problems it could probably work.

You can "just stop renting" and move somewhere else. Housing demand is less elastic than, let's say, potato demand, but it's not "absolutely inelastic" as you have said.

I took "invisible hand" as a joke. The one with pattern : either (fairies/magic/invisible hand) or (sensible argument/observation here).

Almost nobody is using the word market as you are in your comment.

RC of course is inhibitor. It lowers value of the house, which lowers builder's profit, which lowers number of new investments.

Of course demand is elastic. Do you think, people will migrate to a city with an unaffordable housing (unaffordable for them)? Unless you are living in North Korea, the competition is also there.

We are not talking about economic theory. We are talking about house prices. Time after time it has been seen that free-enough market can lower the prices to affordable levels.

So such issues can appear in more products and more datatypes (int and bigint have same problem). This is really bad rule for SQL's "equality" operator. Still optimizer should be able to handle it - if the result is the same,

Emitting correct XHTML was not that hard. The biggest problem was that browsers supported plugins that could corrupt whole page. If you created XHTML webpage you had to handle bug reports caused by poorly written plugins.

I have opposite experience. Consistency is commonly enforced in bigger corporations while it's value is not that high (often negative). Lots of strategies/patterns promoted and blindly followed without a brief reflection that mayb

"In large codebases, consistency is more important than “good design”" - this is completely opposite from my experience. There is some value in consistency within single module but consistency in a large codebase is a big mistake
