> An LLM is not a person. Do not humanise it. Do not personalise it. Do not treat it as more than a glorified autocorrect—that’s what it really is. On the other hand, what an LLM is trying to autocomplete is a story of a conversation bet

"Daddy, vodka got more expensive now, does it mean you will be drinking less?" "No, kids, it means you will be eating less."

Oh, I know what happens: most will fail to reinvent themselves and will spiral themselves into drugs or alcoholism. Seen that happen once before.

Would be ever so awesome if the keyboard had feet. As far as ergonomics go, I don't care too much about split layouts and similar nonsense, but my wrists start to hurt really fast when the keyboard is lying flat on the desk. I've

Nobody argues with that. But it's helpful to know right from the title that it's the original Casey's work and not something newer.

Passkeys do have drawbacks and tradeoffs, as has everything, but my god did I feel the energy of „lol I’m so bad at math” in that tweet and a lot of „lol smelly nerds” in replies.

Oh, forgot about that one. However, note that it's also "parasocial" in the way that the young female fans think the musicians care about them more than they actually do, by orders of magnitude.

Streamers have this feature called "chat", which feeds into the illusion. With rockstars, interactions are more limited, which is a sort of reality check.

Reddit has quite a bit of drama that their favorite youtuber, it turns out, is a flawed person! And these subscribers disagree with them! Unsubscription "breakups" ensue. They, however, can easily find another influencer that is g

So are parasocial relationships with influencers or streamers. I'm not trying to relativize this, but those phenomena are in the same zip code. With the latter, though, at least there are other people who may create a community, but st

The Red Queen's Race is real, though. Compilers keep moving, platforms keep moving, users of the library (I mean programs importing/linking them) keep moving, assumptions keep moving. One can argue that some algorithm library writ

The expectation of ongoing maintenance for oneshotted LLM rewrites is zero or negative.

Good, but the number of internet stinks about this particular cultural appropriation I have encountered so far is zero. But I have encountered multiple dramas from people offended on behalf of the people who never asked them to whiteknight

Then TLS, HTTP/2, and HTTP/3 enter the chat, and now you can’t just send a request.

Secure for whom?

by WesolyKubeczek 4mo ago
Necessary, but not sufficient. Sometimes you want to block certain URLs and not whole domains.

In some jurisdictions, it depends. You may film “a street”, and people go into and out of the frame all the time, and it’s okay. But if you take a random passerby and make them the focus of your recording, you may run into problems.

I’m actually glad they say the quiet part out loud. Leaves no room for doubt about their nature.

The discussions around this have devolved to excrement anyway, I feel tempted to invoke the meme where the goose asking a guy what his jacket is made of, asks “where is your reproducer case!?” instead. Instead we have a shitstorm over presu

I hope some record of us stays so whoever comes next would be able to learn from our stupidity. Yeah, and eternal shame is all we deserve.

The number of electrons involved in the so-called consciousness, compared to the number of electrons in the universe not involved in it, is so small that they are a mere temporary statistical aberration.

Since systemd is successfully parsing its INI files, and barks at you when you put weird shit into them, a grammar for them does exist as well. XML is that wonderful format that gave us vulnerabilities like death by million laughs, up to a
