Every OS has “system” colors. Even with non-native widgets, I have no idea why people don’t use those.

Thank you. Yes, I know about this, and I've audited those prompts. E.g. the prompt literally says "glance at the other woman dressed as a sofa", and DALL-E paints a woman sitting on sofa. Or the prompt says "Only the boy

Hands are manageable and fine most of the time, but I've yet to find a way to describe a complex scene. It can't even get a number of people right half the time. Last thing I've tried was a Distracted Boyfriend meme, but with

Well, Nimda was riding on Code Red, and Dabber was riding on Sasser. That's worms using holes or exploits left by other worms, so not an exact analogy. Sadly, I can't remember any virii [sic] attaching to others (it's been a

How about we just ban all new research, just in case it turns into something bad? Because - I’m sorry - but what you’re saying sounds to me exactly like this, just less generalized. I’m pretty sure that if someone figures out AGI they’ll t

I thought the EO is "go research about it and give President advice by a certain date", without any concrete steps yet? The only steps there is to not use this modern tech for critical infrastructure, military and social and some

This is some weird nonsense that folks who read too much sci-fi (not realizing how unrealistic it is, with the state of modern society and technology) seem to fantasize about, and politician talking heads happily repeat because populism is

It will make it harder for "bad" actors to develop "bad AI" if all those "good" actors will never let anyone access their research, keep it entirely private, and only lease access to the final products. "B

But is chemistry illegal? I think anyone can have all the equations they want to have (like, idk, U238 -> Th234 + alpha particle) - just can't possess some actual substances (Uranium). So I don't think the comparison is valid.

What exactly are the news here? I see three points but fail to comprehend them, because I thought all those things were a norm for a long while: 1. Is it the news that Google still accepted bulk volumes of unauthenticated mails in 2023? If

This immediately sprung into my mind. Already got bitten by RethinkDB (trusted it too much to do some logic, rewrite was painful), so I’d rather have reasonably easily replaceable third-party components than depend on something unique, espe

My apologies, my perception of LLMs is somewhat skewed, because I primarily think of conversation agents. It's unnatural in a conversation. When we're talking about, say, Superman, we don't ever say that it's "a r

It always was slow with larger mailboxes, taking a few seconds to react to a click (and sometimes freezing for minutes to move a bunch of emails ti a different folder). I can’t tell if it’s any slower with Supernova or not. Feels about the
