I wouldn't say it's about "failing to meet the standard". Sure, there is no exit exam you can fail, but there are still people dropping out of a PhD. It could be because you realize you don't really like research -

Yep. I also know researchers who refuse to play this game, but their career plateau'd and they have to work with little fundings.

Personally I find it confusing that all of their iPads since 2010 are simply called "iPad" even though they're completely different. Same with all their products except the iPhone, that get a number in their official name. Yo

They should also know if they're talking to the actual content creator, or an operator paid to pretend to be them. Which is not the case currently, you think you're talking to your favorite porn actress but you're talking to

If anything, an LLM might be better at remembering about the small details of the model persona, previous conversations with the customer, and stay in character.

As soon as they're clear about that, sure. The problem is that they lie to their fans and selling it as a conversation with the creator.

Unless you're in one of the few countries where polygamy exists, that still doesn't work out. Basically you'll need as many single men than single women. Now if you're talking about apps, a minority of men can date most

> There is always going to be an insurance company with "the highest rates of claim denials". On its own that means nothing. Statistically they should all be in the same ballpark. The industry average is 16%, but UHC has 32% so

That's the thing, the problem isn't written in formal logic. It's written in English, which is vague.

Yes I don't know why we're still talking about Star Citizen as a crowdfunding project in development. It's a released game that is constantly evolving and getting money from in-game purchases, like Fortnite.

Bazzite has gamescope running out of the box, and other distributions probably have it too. It's also an immutable distribution, like SteamOS (except it's based on Fedora Silverblue instead of Arch) so there is no "incompatib

In a past job I've had a good experience in this case with docker compose (well, something similar). You would list the services you need (or service groups) in a config file, start a command and all services would start in containers.

Speaking from a country where workers are very well protected, nothing really prevents anyone from being fired. It's just more expensive. A court never reinstates anyone to their job, the company just needs to pay damages to the former

You don't get any meaningful stats from opt-in. Might as well not collect any data at all.

I'd say it's probably survivor's bias. Bad books from the pre 70s are probably forgotten and no longer printed. Old books that we're still printing and are still talking about have stood the test of time. It doesn't

Imagine taking the ChatGPT app and bundling it with crappy hardware. So instead of pulling out your phone to use it, you have this additional device you bought for 200 bucks.
