If you're familiar with cPanel, these tools are basically cPanel for the 2020s. As a web developer, you develop your app on your computer (normally), but then folks can't actually access your app when it's running on your com

Arguably, your memories are also lossily encoded abstractions of an experience, and recalling the taste of chocolate is a similar “telephone conversation”.

The money doesn’t get burned though, it goes somewhere . Whether it’s for equipment hire or facilities or to compensate the cowboy poets for their time, or whatever.

I am surprised how many people are comfortable calling sorting numbers alphabetical sorting (including TFA). In true alphabetical sorting, sorting numbers is undefined behaviour. Both of these sorting methods are valid extensions of alpha

My point is, what level of confidence do we have that we are not just pattern matching engines running on superior hardware? How can we be sure the difference between human intelligence and an LLM is categorical, not incremental?

When you describe the taste of chocolate, unless you are actually currently eating chocolate, you are relying on the activation of synapses in your brain to reproduce the “taste” of chocolate in order for you to describe it. For humans, the

You might think that. But there’s plenty of evidence suggesting you would be wrong. The biggest fines under GDPR have been for Meta, Amazon, TikTok, Uber, LinkedIn. Even outside of tech you don’t have to look too far down the list to find H

It’s not about “the app”. The app can have two or two million datapoints locally. What matters in terms of processing is how much of it gets sent to LALIGA (or their provider). On a separate note, I am surprised you think you can just promi

It feels like you perhaps didn't understand my comment. I'm not saying that LALIGA couldn't identify you if they wanted. They certainly could (and probably do). What I'm saying is that it is possible to build a syste

Having worked for a company of a similar profile, I can perhaps explain: the only folks working on internal tools are those who are so weak that they can’t be placed on a customer account as a billable resource… which is not a particularly

I don’t really understand this comment. What do you mean that the customer “is always known”? To whom? How?

I think a lot would depend on whether they do any kind of on-device processing to determine whether the audio is likely to be a football match or not. I think they could successfully argue that data processed on your phone and not shared

While this particular app may or may not send telemetry to Google, it is not correct that “all Electron apps do”, as OP suggests.

The DSM is not designed as a list of questions to use to ask patients, it’s designed to describe disorders. Asking you “do you have trouble concentrating?” is lazy (at least, on its own. Asking a patient to perform a self-assessment is not

Telegraphic style is not grammatically incorrect, it’s a feature of instructional English. Consider “insert nut into bolt”, “slice onion thinly”, or “sprinkle vinegar over chips”. I agree that your counter example does not work, but that’s

Yeah, exactly. Timeout based callbacks register a timer with the runtime, and when the timer is up, then the callback gets added to the end of the task queue (so once the timeout is up, you've got to wait for the current loop iteration

Well the question as to whether it’s a “cut-and-dried” violation depends on information Apple probably isn’t willing to share: is there a specific technical reason this technology can’t be enabled on third party headphones? If there’s a goo

More likely the second than the first. It’s already the case that you technically “record” the audio at one end and then transmit it to the other. I can also forward a caller to voicemail where their message is transcribed in real time, whi
