Respectfully, the context of the post you replied to was that of getting behind the Bible as a book to swear upon by atheists, and even people of other religions. Or in the least that they use some book of moral philosophy, instead of a gen

Cool, so it ought to be Early Modern English akin to the language of Shakespeare then?

The context is how the teachings of Jesus could make it bearable also for atheists to "get behind" swearing on the the Bible. As such, perhaps it's better to swear on the New Testament. But as you say, The Golden Rule isn&#x2

The ultimate source of consequence is your own conscience, though sadly some people don't have one. But some people who otherwise lack a conscience might still be fearful of God, and so that's why the Bible was seen as a great doc

I really like the use of the word "thine" here. In the Scandinavian languages it's translated to "din" (singular) or "dine" (plural) (with an ee sound like in leek, instead of ay like in fine dining). It

This isn't really my point. My point is that you can't ask the documentation to expand upon what little is already in it. Stack Overflow works a little better for this purpose, because you can ask follow-up questions and get more

Honestly, for me, it's for driving pleasure, and for having the choice. If I’m kicked off the bus at some remote location, and all I get is an old Volvo Amazon veteran car, then I’d like to be able to drive it around. And where I’m fro

I don't think they were horribly botched. It's simply a very hard problem to tackle, much harder than, say, end-to-end encryption over HTTP (which is of course HTTPS), simply due to the fact that the communication over HTTPS is on

I wonder what implications this has for the reports claiming that general IQ is going down in most countries. Obviously, there are people out there who do not suffer from this trend. And perhaps they are the ones making the systems that hel

And that is why we need AI assist in cars. With that said, where I'm from (Europe) most people drive "stick". That is, until recently. Now most new drivers are learning on auto or AI assisted vehicles. Is it better or worse?

Roughly 80% of the time, currently. Which is great! But if you don't keep that in mind, you risk making a fool of yourself. It'll most likely improve in the future, I'm sure. The amount of real-world progress this will bring

In Norway motherboard is called hovedkort. Hoved is etymologically linked to Norse hǫfuð or English head, but in this context the correct translation is main. Kort in this context means a card as derived from a chart or piece

There's a 12 minute a short film and timelapse over an entire year made in a remote and derelict town in the North of Norway as well, called A Year Along the Abandoned Road (Norwegian: Året gjennom Børfjord). The pop band A-HA used

I'm sure too! But there are some very important differences with Stallman's use and "my" use. Personally I use WGET all the time to get specific stuff, mainly downloads of binaries say for some UX system I'm setting

by Technotroll 4y ago
I think Stallman just shot himself in the foot by even revealing that much. Unless a lot of people do the same thing, it's very easy to conclude that it was Richard Stallman who sent that WGET request, granted a few variables. The diff

I'm just guessing here, but I'm fairly sure that they use a model that updates dynamically as the "user" or victim changes his or her web browsing settings, and even when the user tries to hide. It easily sounds like som

I recommend taking all the introductory courses you can find on both AI and ML. If you like the introductory courses, and you feel compelled to move on, then chances are you'll do well in a job regarding AI or ML. There are also severa

Sorry, that's patently untrue. Perhaps it's anecdotal, but I know a host of undergrads who got head hunted into quite elite tech positions either directly from Uni where I studied, or due to private projects they were in. And I ev

R&D is fraught with risk, but some risks are more rewarding than others. These companies don't just sit on useless knowledge. Take Google who now sits as a "loser" in the current AI "competition"; their projects

I play the guitar, every day, for no reason. But I'd like to add that it's very hard to play guitar on a napkin.

I'm not entirely sure about this. ChatGPT would have to make a model for how such a game was made, and then infer its rules. From that perspective, it would be brand new, although very similar games would perhaps exist out there. And a

Hm, well in that case I may well be wrong. Thanks for the info!

by Technotroll 4y ago
In this case I think I'd give ChatGPT the benefit of the doubt. It is possible to invent something that already exists, and it has happened on several occasions trough-out history. A great example is the history on who was really first

Torrent can also be really, really fast with enough seeders, even giving CDNs a run for their money.

If you come to the North of Norway between the end of December and the start of February, you'll usually see it if you stick around for more than a week. The biggest problem up North is really the weather. It's often cloudy, and f

I've lived there too, and I can't understand those who don't see the wonder of an amazing Aurora from time to time. Now add to this that the Aurora is a perfect excuse to go do some physics experiments with magnets and lasers

When the Aurora is strong, you can see subtle undulations. It will hang down like a velvet curtain from the sky, subtly moving like in a faint breeze. When I was a kid, we'd whistle for the Aurora, to make it dance. But according to th
