Just a matter of curiosity: do people really think the Sky OpenAI voice is similar to ScarJo? While they both vary pitch a lot, Scarlett also adds great dimension by shifting rapidly between different tone qualities. Tone variation seems to

Personally, I liked it when email threads followed the Usenet "laws". https://jkorpela.fi/usenet/laws.html Most of the best discussions I've had online followed those rules. (OTOH, those rules are writte

Don't you think that is a very cynical view? The party or parties you disagree with may not share your views, but they do have many things in common with you. In order to build bridges with other parties, it's important to believe

Hmm, what I want is to run WASM using a CPython extension. CPython extensions are vital to Python. I'm curious why you say an extension is against the spirit of it.

That sounds fascinating. Have you considered starting your own company around re-creating it?

Exactly. Employee A adds a feature and adds security policies X and Y to prevent abuse. Employee B adds another feature and disables policy X because it conflicts with the new feature and policy Y is still in place. Employee C adds some fun

From a security perspective, a web browser is a kind of VM hypervisor, where each web site may have its own VMs. So yes, everyone can be affected.

I'm not disagreeing. The point I'm trying too make is that humans can't be copied today , yet when AGI arrives, it will be copyable on day one. That difference means that current human morals and ethics may not be very appli

If we ever do find a way to copy humans (including their full mental state), I suspect all law and culture will be upended. We'll have to start over from scratch.

Humans can't be copied. It seems like the inability to copy people is one of the pillars of our morality. If I could somehow make a perfect copy of myself, would I think about morality and ethics the same way? Probably not. AGI will th

That would be very interesting. Someone please tell me such a community exists somewhere.

I wouldn't dismiss that scenario. It seems plausible that the documentation is so extensive that it takes time and effort to answer some questions. It might be easier to just ask the authors, if they're still around.

Fair enough. Personally, I like to watch both sides, and it has been interesting to see conservatives becoming more favorable toward Twitter/X. If I were working on a social network (like Bluesky, the topic of this discussion), I would

That was the problem with Twitter/X. It appears that Elon's tweaking has caused the service to switch from left-leaning to right-leaning. https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/05/01/aft

Very cool. That video is impressive, although the audio is superfluous. :-) Have you tried training an AI chatbot to write Hyperdiv apps? It seems like a good idea, and I'm just wondering whether you've tried it and what the resul

That seems like a big opportunity for other cloud providers. They could provide SSDs that are actually physically attached and boast (rightfully) that their SSDs are a lot faster, drawing away business from older cloud providers.

If I were paranoid, I might be concerned that the USB device would detect when it's plugged in to a small device like a Raspberry Pi and only launch its attack when it's plugged in to a more valuable target. Is there some way to m

I think of it more from the writer's perspective. In my experience, a large number of people shy away from writing anything because they feel they cannot write in a way that makes them sound smart. (And if they're not smart, they
