That's sacrilege, that game doesn't even come close to the quality of Left 4 dead series and suffers from just about every problem that plagues so many modern games. Back 4 blood was just another "live service" game that

Are there there any good studies on this topic? I find that most people's morals are far too flexible when put to the test.

Yes, for some definition of "speech which causes deaths". This definition should include calls to violence but exclude, for example, vaccine skepticism.

So you're murdering people and asking whether the government should stop you? Obviously? Not just by restricting your speech but by using lethal force if necessary.

I think the concern is that hacking an IOT platform would give you names, physical addresses, and household occupancy for all of their customers. Once you cross-reference that with another database you have a list of wealthiest households i

A payload can contain any details that the producer of that error believes are important. I don't know what you mean by the error handling trace, how does that help with the toy JSON parsing example? I want the payload to indicate the

by dns_snek 1y ago
I would expect a generic interface to define a base error payload which would contain some common information and a pointer to the implementation-specific details (or embed them in the original payload as a tagged union).

I'm aware that there's a chance that Google is lying, I'm just pointing out that their comment doesn't make any sense if they believe that Google deserves the benefit of the doubt.

I don't follow, because there's a possibility that someone somewhere might create a bad overly-generic error set if they were allowed to stuff details in the payload when those should be reflected in the error "type", it

Clever. Yes, humans can be terrible at reasoning too, but in any half decent technical workplace it's so rare for people to fail to apply logic as often and in ways that are as frustrating to deal with as LLMs. And if they are then the

That's a motte and bailey fallacy. Nobody said that they aren't useful, the argument is that they can't reason [1]. The world is full of useful tools that can't reason or think in any capacity. [1] That does not mean t

No, that's decidedly not what is happening here. One is saying "I've seen an LLM spectacularly fail at basic reasoning enough times to know that LLMs don't have a general ability to think" (but they can sometimes re

No I don't think your opinion is "wrong" or anything, it's just that this is a language-level limitation and not a valid criticism of NodeJS.
