Was the 2% figure counting all those things? I don't think so. This is changing the grounds of the discussion. Ridiculously so. Do you take me for some zealot who hates tensors or matrices or something? I don't even hate LLMs, tho

It was written in a specific context: > [AI] that most people hardly use at all and while ambiguous, I meant that quantifying the number of people that use it, results in a not large number. I've had discussions in other threads abo

I was referring to AI in that statement, I wrote it somewhat poorly.

Every company is using it? The deli and the laundromat too? Every consumer? Maybe transitively because they use Google or what have you, but most people I know still don't really know what AI is, never mind have a puritan revulsion ove

If it was 2% for VOD streaming, and 3% for every other service that is delivered by a networked computer, I would think "wow, streaming is huge". 2% for one thing that most people hardly use at all, versus 3% for everything else o

The point was that one rational approach is that it's OK to not be top ranked in a market that has significant medium-term profitability issues. Apple has no problem creating new markets, but not if being top ranked requires years and

My understanding from this exchange is that for you, large distinctions of meaning and reason are reducible and accurately described as meaningless language nitpicks, but regardless, you dress up the last post as if it's the opposite,

It wasn't a point about exact language in and of itself. It was a point about the conclusion, and how it doesn't account for highly relevant aspects of the publication record and industry. This was not "a better word would be

If the novel parts are don't transcode, and clean up before adding to library, then you can just do that, right? Without having to create a frontend, which is the fiddly part (especially since losing the AppleTV client I can use with J

Given the alternative proposed by OP was more of the same but with layers on top, saying "how about just using xargs and sh anyway" is a simplification -- learn 2 tiny things vs start depending on some new tool whose only purpose

I don't remember which was the odd one out, but in the 00s I was using Mac OS X and FreeBSD (and maybe some other more niche alternatives) a lot, and something didn't support xargs -0.

If you want a shell to interact with the results, you can of course just use a (sub)shell. ls -1 ./*.sh | xargs -rd\\n sh -c 'for i in "$@" ; do ... ; done' sh 1. not strictly necessary to use -1 as I belie

What's the implication or inference based upon this? So you're seeing comments sharing a general attitude. And? As it is now, your post is meaningless to me.

Yes, as someone who has read the literature section of the (small) national newspaper with some regularity, this is pretty much all old news -- could glean most of this from reading for a year. You hear about the longlists and shortlists an

I know, I use switch and restore now (for the most part). I'm explaining how knowing the internals does help understand the 2 use-cases being originally implemented via 1 command, i.e., checkout. The post I was responding to said the

Switching branches involves: updating the field marking "current branch", and then updating the working copy to reflect the objects referenced. So for all trees/files, recursively restore wc to match the referenced blobs. Res

So if you leave a post unchanged, it's proof you meant what you wrote; and if you edit it, it's even stronger proof you meant what you wrote, even if the edits signify some change. I understand that many interpretations are open i

It might be helpful to read the latest revision of Andrew's post, which may address this concern for you. It received several revisions: https://github.com/andrewrk/andrewkelley.me/commits/master/p..

Yes, while I'm not a fan of fully networked, recorded, ubiquitous license plate tracking, it is quite different than the cell phone. License plate number is a registered identifier mandated to be fully plainly visible, with that identi

What you have written does not seem to be in close contact with the OP. He talks positively about the GLM news and whatnot. He is highly skeptical only of the "doom" scenarios, including upending most or a massive amount of jobs,

I don't assume "Mars mission" to necessarily mean cargo for settlement or humans. In fact, that all seems quite distant at this point, so I ignore it entirely unless specific concrete actions occur. So for many people like my

It's not special in this regard in the language, or even especially so in the available tooling. Nevertheless, the culture in rust is to add many many dependencies. I occasionally use self-professed "small, modern" CLI tools

You can't sudo echo and redirect from the non-sudo shell like that. echo 3 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches or sudo sh -c 'echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches' Als
