Banning under 16s from social media is de-facto censorship of political views outside of those promulgated by mainstream media, and as the mainstream media in this country tends to be urban-liberal in orientation, this will have an effect

This isn't an axis from freedom to control, with the country sitting at an identifiable point. All of these things are happening, antagonistically, at the same time. Right wing people set up a television station, government cracks down

If you're working with an agent to write code, you want it in the most quickly-readable format possible. That's generally Python, although YMMV. I want to be able to skim and zoom in on parts of code that might need attention. Thi

Popular in UK train stations until very recently. I suspect that there are still a few out there!

Ah, I found this particularly offensive when I heard about the naming of the parent company. Randomly nicking a famous person's name for your company is pretty rubbish behaviour IMO. The odiousness decreases as a function of time since

Bias towards women would be understood by most readers as favouring them. I would have written bias against women here.

I've been looking for a solution for this problem for a long time, and this is a particularly innovative approach. I'll look into this more: Most appreciated, thank you.

But there's no reason to expect that work to be graded. It should be a learning exercise which trains skills later tested under exam conditions.

Came here to say the same thing. The AI problem is functionally no different to the paid essay writers. Grade everything at face value, and then have people write essays under exam conditions for grading.

This is brilliant - thanks! There are so many packs on that site to choose from, it would be great to get some pointers on which ones to install.

I will always politely ask people who are doing this to stop it, and 99% of the time they do. (This is in the UK).

This seems to start with 2 agents, and then all of their offspring die immediately. Any hints?

The UK used to have a cloud provider (UK Cloud) but it got aggressively outcompeted by the US Hyperscalers, despite primarily targeting government departments. It's interesting that at the time the UK didn't consider data sovereig

Is this science? Perhaps I should submit some of the random roleplay scenarios that I've run with LLMs to New Scientist.

My advice was along the lines of saying, in the 1950s, "give up all cigarettes, not just 'low tar'". Potential straw man here, but surely you wouldn't call that "wildly bad advice". My comment was predicat

Some stimulants are a treatment for ADHD. Caffeine is not one of them, and whilst there are suggestions it can act as a short-term treatment for some people, it's not recommended.

The silly thing is that when I drank caffeine, the hit from it would make me overcreative. Yes, I might do more, but it probably wasn't what I was supposed to be doing - I'd pursue some new and exciting thing with tremendous fervo

I am OP, and I can confirm exactly this line of thought. Once I had given up caffeine, I was able to start using methods like Pomodoro and Eisenhower grids, and they actually worked.

Exercise is another good thing to do on a daily basis. It prevents me from self-medicating with alcohol.

I think some of the positive effects are very quick (better sleep) whereas others take longer to materialise. My wife commented after maybe 2-3 years that I had become much more organised. I think that happened because I came off caffeine a
