The MIT license is two paragraphs long. The GPL is little more than a page, plus a very informative preamble. Don’t take anyone’s word for what they say or which is better. Read them.

If only there were a whole field of study dedicated to this, and you could hire experts to run studies for you…

And as long as the thing you are polling is about 50:50. It’s hard to poll more skewed things, and you need larger sample sizes.

by drxzcl 3y ago
If you plug in the numbers into a sample size calculator you will find that a sample size of 2000 enables you to get an estimate within 5% of the true value 99.999% of the time for an infinite population. So, not exactly small, no. https:&

The whole three year thing is exactly what they said a decade ago when they moved from tick/tock to a vague three year cycle. The problem isn’t Moore’s law. It’s that Intel isn’t keeping pace with the competition and it’s finally gotte

Yes. But more importantly, there are lots of creators making excellent stuff for systems that are not compatible with their bullshit player option supplements. No Steve, you cannot be extra-planar half-staplerkin half-mongoose demi-lich pal

BTW, I detest PDF for online use. It looks great, but the typesetting never matches whatever screen I'm using. If it's going to go paperless, the RPG industry needs to evolve beyond "let's pretend this is paper".

For me the naive part is focussing on player options. I understand that groups generally have one DM and 4 players, do if you include player options you might sell 5 books instead of one. But that's the shallow, cash-in-now-fuck-next-d

You can get better results by setting up a test harness that compares to the original and feeding back the results. But then you are doing boring work and letting the llm do the fun work, which is not the point the whole thing.

I was referring to the commodities market. The stuff you need to keep your factory running. I agree with you that the financial economy is largely divorced from actual stuff, which is why pumping money into it doesn’t lead to rising prices

by drxzcl 3y ago
No that’s wrong. That refers to the money made by issuing actual currency, but that’s not how the money supply is regulated. Most of the money is created by banks and other private entities though fractional reserve lending, not actual curr

Uncertainties in the continued supply were driving up the price of futures. It’s not “let’s bet some free money on the price of gas increasing”. It’s “we need to secure enough gas to keep the factory running next year, let’s buy as much as

It’s becoming increasingly clear that deficit spending is not, in fact, the main driver of inflation. Just look at the recent past. We’ve been deficit spending since 08 without any appreciable inflation. Then fuel and commodities prices sur

Wow. You guys just can’t think of anything else, can you?

That’s only true for extremely small values of “censorship”.

The post is about optics. Read again what I wrote.

The same person also posted essentially the same message under the linked post. FWIW it sounds genuine to me.

That’s not what I said.

That’s a lot of words you just put in my mouth. I’m not going to bother responding to every point you just hallucinated, but I do want to point out that I don’t think a crime has been committed.

by drxzcl 3y ago
This is a puerile take. If you ignore the optics of the situation you are going to step in it big time, even if your intentions are completely honorable. You need to be aware of the optics of your behavior, because that's all outside o

Can you give an example of a piece of text that would be illegal to write (not transmit/communicate, just write) in the US?
53.
by drxzcl 3y ago
There is very little that is illegal to write down (with or without AI help) in most jurisdictions. Even things like threats, the crime is in the communication, not in writing the text. I can write down "Person X, I'm going to kil

by drxzcl 4y ago
Exactly that most places actually do ban ‘moron’ in official communications and have done so for ages. It’s an extremely ableist term, it’s does not simply mean “stupid”.

I see a lot of people struggling to make ends meet around me and they have all sorts of politics. I find your comment fairly tone deaf and reeking of unwarranted victimism.

On the other hand, the lightning socket has the springs which fill up with dust and detritus and are a nightmare to keep clean with accidentally bending them. I think USB-C did the right thing, putting the conductors on the expensive part a

That guy sure seems to have an axe to grind with materialism and existentialism. Human life is not valuable because we can do things that computers can't, or that computers shouldn't. It's valuable because we can make it valu

I love traefik, but getting started is kinda rough if you’re not quite technical. There are like three different places to put configuration, and even getting informative error messages out of the thing it’s not exactly trivial. But once it

Also, large armies have been vehicles of social change since napoleonic times at least. You bring young men from all over the country together, from different backgrounds and different social classes, and have them depend on each other for

Humans assign a lot of, well, meaning to meaning. It turns out that you can get a really good score on tasks that superficially you would think require actual understanding without programming any of that in. Does this mean the neural netwo
