You don't understand what it means for a bank to receive $100 in its bank account? This has nothing to do with lending, except that deposits are loans from you to your bank.

Is it bad that the bartender knows my birthdate?

Oh I've been there. If he doesn't like you he spams you with "you just joined a channel" protocol messages until your client crashes from being in too many channels - most clients don't survive that. I can't fa

So how does your other plan solve that?

Yes

And you should require your passport to get one of those?

That's the definition of a Loser in the Gervais model - someone who realises the system is BS, does the bare minimum to survive in it to save energy for other things outside the system. The part that confuses me though ia the Clueless

kerygma is not a management bullshit word. I have never heard a manager say kerygma. Or anyone, for that matter. I've heard a non-manager say gestalt at least once... And the last time I heard "ontological" was someone trying

A pattern is exactly what the word "pattern" implies; something that lots of people seem to have found useful, so you might find it useful too. If you are a language designer and you see lots of people writing the same boilerplate

Culture exists and can be built. Building it intentionally is basically impossible, but also an obvious thing to try to do if you don't know that.

That's why they call them People Team now! I still call them HR, but they call themselves and management calls them The People Team. Can we go back to Personnel or Staffing? Those are nice and neutral by today's standards...

Early LLMs would do better at a task if you prefixed the task with "You are an expert [task doer]"

I think if they're plainly saying what they're doing, that's not foreshadowing, that's just announcing. And you know they don't mean Grok (the most ideological AI in existence).

Temporary blocks if and when you are actually being DDoSed, presumably?

CGNAT? That's definitely not true. There are whole towns that have to share one IP address. They're mostly in the third world.

Do you feel coffee shop WiFi should require you to scan your passport to connect, or that it shouldn't exist at all?

If 10foot is ill-advised then why do you use one?

Why is your responsibility for things you didn't do? Providing a road that a bad person drives on is not a crime.

Yes, many times. Once you explain what a Tor exit node is, you can't be convicted of downloading CP or whatever the anonymous user did, because you quite plausibly didn't do it. However, a verdict of innocence only happens after y

They contain the full key now which is why they are longer. Apparently it was necessary to fix the vulnerabilities in the previous version. Public key obviously, not private.

But this is a magic shovel that digs holes and tunnels all by itself exactly as intended. It should be able to do this without any special skill involved in prompting it.

Not really, since they don't have `select` There's a stop_token in some Microsoft C++ library but it's not nearly as convenient to interrupt a blocking operation with it.

What's the purpose of blocking them, anyway? Is it to make you feel good? To clean up logs? To reduce spam? With the residential proxy industry - which, I note, is directly boosted by such blocking practices and funnels money into orga

acidvegas is a pretty shady guy himself, running an IRC spam network pretty much in broad daylight. I don't know what to make of this connection, except he probably has a reason for posting this that's slightly more nefarious than
