Could there be a better steward for Chrome in theory? Sure. My guess is that in practice the successor would be worse or about the same since it is all about money in the end.

To be fair, what country doesn't act like they have this cake replicator technology? Certainly the U.S. and England are firmly in cakeism territory.

I started learning prolog just a few months ago, when I stumbled upon https://linusakesson.net/dialog/ which is a spin on prolog optimized for writing interactive fiction. As a sweet and short tutorial I can recommend

Desktops shouldn't be simple. They should work reliably and predictably like every good procduct. Everyone wants something simple until they want to do something that's not supported because it's not a simple use case. So unl

These issues pop up everywhere, not just with JS. You can (and people do) write horrendously complex and laggy software (e.g. using "frameworks") in any language. Lots of excellent pieces of software are written in pure JS.

These are three different models: 1) Free lifetime updates 2) No subscription, but limited updates 3) Subscription model The parent was suggesting no. 2 (what you would find acceptable as well).

There is a good solution. It's actually a great solution: Write everything in plain JavaScript. You get a great language to develop in. All your problems will go away. No dependency hell. Excellent load times and performance. Superb co

I don't use any of facebook, instagram, LinkedIn, tiktok, X, bluesky, mastodon, snap, ... and it's not even hard. On the rare occasions I took a look at those I found them boring beyond believe. Even mastodon following people I am

The paper confirms that even the biggest and most advanced models can still be misled by adding irrelevant information that can be easily filtered out by humans.

Based on my own experience it is still fantastic. Not long ago I had an issue with an order and a real human called me back right away outside normal office hours. No waiting in a phone queue. And he was actually able to help me. If that is

This would be more useful with some kind of audio/tts functionality. I wrote a couple of scripts that do something similar but create audio files instead which can be used for meditation, workout, etc.

I don't think it's hyperbolic at all if you look at the published data, development of past and planned future energy requirements for AI. And as if efficiency gains ever stopped anyone from using even more energy. See https:

Let's just assume for a moment that the hype is real and that these LLMs are incredibly intelligent and will replace us all soon. Then the model shouldn't be any less intelligent if we remove facts like Uma Thurman's measurem

Well if they are paying real people to answer my questions I would call that a pretty good deal. That's exactly my point. As a user I don't care how they come up with it. That's not my problem. I just care about the content.

Sure, but if I want a human, I can hire a human. Humans also do many other things I don't want my LLM to do.

The web is full of human shills. Why should LLMs be any different? They will tack their boilerplate disclaimer on and be done with it.

This was so obvious from the start. Whenever big tech creates "standards" now you already know it's going to be total horse shit. Look back at the old threads when passkeys launched. HN was full of fanboys thinking it's
