I see my comment got upvotes but yours is downvoted for some reason, maybe they only read the first sentence and thought you were disagreeing? (or they agree with this for meastball but not milk for some reason)

I think browsers can already block sites from reading image data from images embedded from other domains so maybe you could use the same logic here Also WebGL/WebGPU do exist already although I guess that’s easier to disable

What’s wrong with vegetarian meatballs? As a vegetarian I find naming the products after what they’re imitating far more helpful that coming up with some clumsy confusing name that’s obviously trying to imply what they want to say without s

With all those limitations I wonder why they didn’t just use something like C… I guess the portability of bytecode? A modern version might use WebAssembly instead which feels more suited as it’s much lower level (at least without the modern

Trail? Terrain? I use it for walking for 10-20mins around a (mostly flat) city and I expect that’s what 90% of people use it for, the comment didn’t mention hiking

I don’t understand why people say the Chinese Room thing would prove LLMs don’t think, to me it’s obvious that the person doesn’t understand Chinese but the process does, similarly the CPU itself doesn’t understand the concepts an LLM can w

You can have sentences that are perfectly fine but have some markers of ChatGPT like "it's not just X — it's Y" (which may or may not mean it's generated)

You can record in public, but you can’t point cameras at public areas? That seems contradictory Or is it the fact that it’s always recording that makes the difference or something?

Wouldn’t that degrade the quality for a lossy format, especially if done repeatedly? I see why people would not want their phone to do that. If you’re uploading it somewhere that might not be supported it would be worth it but I don’t want

I think that this approach could feasibly lead to something far safer than human drivers (from what I’ve seen they already are safer), so it would be human drivers that we would question the need for at that point

When a plane crashes no one says “let’s let people decide if planes should be allowed to fly over their houses”, we say “let’s figure out exactly what went wrong and how to make sure it never happens again” and that’s probably why aviation

One of the most interesting parts of this to me that not many people are talking about is what their approach will be to making Steam games work on ARM… I assume they will have put a lot of work into an emulation layer (maybe an existing on

Isn’t the situation you’re describing where speeds vary due to queues going to be in heavy traffic where cars aren’t getting close to the speed limit anyway? (also it’s kind of amazing that 5 parallel lanes is considered normal in the US… I

As someone who doesn’t drive but has done a UK theory test - aren’t you supposed to stick to the “slow lane” (no matter how fast you’re going) unless you’re overtaking? And that’s why it’s not actually called the “fast lane” but the “passin

But the mod relies on the code structure as much as it relies on the names, I think it could still be considered a derivative work, I don’t think this would be copyrightable but I find the code structure being copyrightable more plausible t

But in this case the flexibility of HTML is a negative because any layout shift would mess up the positions of the annotations, so fixing the layout (and making sure it’s non-interactive) is helpful here

You can do that kind of JIT code generation with WASM but you need to compile a separate module and load and link things up in JS (doable but not technically within pure WASM, so it won’t work in standalone runtimes)
