Yeah. I remember such an ad in a German book I had. It was the only ad in that old book and this ad didn't age well: it was for a product not offered anymore. This ad was tailored to the story, something like this: "In a different

I am Deaf. I never ever have overheard anything. That's a serious handicap if there are many people thinking random unstructured conversation is important.

When I saw the title I panicked because I have a laptop from them. Oh no they close down! I was relieved that it was only about being them not sustainable for the Earth. How crazy is that? I am relieved that my laptop continues to be suppor

Disclaimer: Discord-hater here. It seems that the core feature is the AI generated summary. This could be a paid plugin for the most important discussion platforms in the wild, for example: old-school PHP discussion boards, Discord, Slack,

Agreed, the positive feedback loop for the AI explosion might not happen. However we had a path of positive feedback loops up to today. Moore's Law is part of this path of positive feedback loops. We have a look-behind bias. We tend to

Haha! "In the wild" gave me the visual image of me roaming through a foggy mountain forest with my laptop under my arm and sometimes sitting down and programming in jed and you spotting me and hopefully not shooting me.

You are correct. I had to decide to switch to Ultimate or not.

I am not sure whether my config is really useful. I added foot.ini but not evremap.toml and my xkb keymmap because these are not yet finished and very hacky. https://gist.github.com/nalply/239c1e2ed13f5cb8ec4f3873fe64d.

Long ago, perhaps ten or more years, I used IntelliJ. It is a good IDE. Then last year I tried CLion with the Rust plugin. Still good. Not everything is smooth but that's not their fault. One example: it is frustrating to display value

Did you read my comment at all before answering? Note: You answered AFTER my edit.

If you think as a species, then 600 years is nothing. If you think as an individual, then 600 years is dismaying.

Of course. It's all ballpark.

Read more about the Dark Forest Hypothesis. I don't mean that this hypothesis is valid but it makes sense to think about it.

1. I looked up the phase diagram of water. If the mass is 10 times the earth, their athmospheric pressure might be one hundred times of ours. At that pressure, water boils at about 300°C. If ambient temperature is about 200°C then their che

I am Deaf. I never bothered to setup audio (Arch Linux on Framework). Edit: I would need someone to help me verify that sound works. Of course I could touch the chassis near the loudspeaker and play a 200 Hz sine wave on https://

Which has smaller binaries and runs faster!

by _nalply 3y ago
There are pros and cons. Something like Tauri but with Servo would be independent from the system's webview but the binary would be heavyweight. Edit: A compromise would be a post-install step where some minimal code downloads somethin

Imagine something like a water molecule where one electron is a black hole behaving like an electron. I think this could be very dangerous if this water is extremely poisonous. On the other hand, imagine something like extremely tough stuff

by _nalply 3y ago
Perhaps in a few millenia chemistry which uses black hole electrons instead of normal electrons will be possible and probably dangerous.

Yeah, for whales by mimicking sonar (caveat emptor). In Signed Language you can point into a 3D space. If you define a mapping of the world into the 3D space available to Signed Language then you have the world at your fingertips.

Interesting. I talk a Signed Language and I know how to give a 3d image, for example when asking for the location of the toilet, like this: go through this door, then you see the stairs to the left, go down there and then from your point of

Hah! A variant of the liar's paradox!... For those who don't know about this paradox, let me explain it. We have now the situation that GPT-4 itself states it can hallucinate. Let's say this is true. Then case closed. GPT-4 c

I don't use GPT-4, but as far as I know GPT-4 also hallucinates but not as much as ChatGPT.

by _nalply 3y ago
This hallucination is sobering and thought-provoking. ChatGPT creates a bubble around your reasoning. If you discover hallucination it tries to correct itself, but most often it just creates different nonsense. If you are not very well-vers

Replying to myself. Inherently there's a conflict in advertisement. The consumer expects entertaining and unbiased information and the advertiser expects the consumer to buy something. One example how this conflict plays out: The youtu

Because paid time off is not a thing in the US I can imagine that people have difficulties imaging how this could be organized in the company, especially for small ones. This is what I experienced in Switzerland. - Sometimes the company jus

I am profoundly anti-advertisement because I believe in the pull model: if I want something I ask. So I think about 95% or more of advertisement today is annoying if not outright evil. But your comment got me thinking. Is there a world wher
