That's the point. I'm using snark to demonstrate how useless using snark is. Clever, eh?

Do they actually have those capabilities, or does it just seem like they do because they're very good calculators?

Is anyone in the know, aside from mainstream media (god forgive me for using this term unironically) and civillians on social media claiming LLMs are anything but word calculators? I think that's a perfect description by the way, I&#x2

Yup. The same way "we're" being snarky for harmless absent-minded mistakes for no good reason.

Without evaluating the merits of your statement, I find it funny you start out implying others are close-minded, but end up rather close-minded yourself.

I don't think it's even possible for a user to down-vote a direct reply to their own comment. I can't see the post you're complaining about; but based on the tone of the rest of your messages, maybe you were just off top

I had never heard of Human Design until now. It looks like absolutely maddening junk to me. To each their own but nonsense pulp like that is just about the exact opposite of what draws me to hn, and avoid almost all other forms of social me

As someone who gets sick often on flights, I'd like to know the same.

If you wouldn't mind elaborating, what are your issues with the article? I'm curious what you specifically identify as an indication of low quality.

The point is the statementay or may not be accurate. From a journalistic perspective, unless Cox provided evidence or the author was able to otherwise independently verify the claim, it's a claim, not a fact. The comment is a good sugg

But can't you see how the distinction between helping you succeed as an employee and a person might be murky for someone less experienced in the corporate world? For many people, if someone is helping them and being extremely nice, the

Yes. Many, many people. Friendliness goes a long way towards quelling suspicion. I think it's rather safe to say unassuming kindness can disarm most anyone who isn't a cutthroat, Type A personality. I'm autistic as hell and I

Are you really not sure why anyone would think that way? Do you really believe every single person is (or should be) utterly cynical? In a lot of orgs, an HR rep is the first person a new hire will interact with and IME they're usually

It's fascinating you doubled down on your own straw man and still have the nerve to call others delusional. You missed my point, which I wasn't very clear about, so my mistake. Although it doesn't seem like you're intere

Maybe I know that but I'm still too damaged to try? That is the entire point of my post. Thanks for the "advice" though.

The fact that my experience with nix has historically been _so_ difficult, I fear even something that claims to make it "easier" will not be able to deliver -- my aversion has everything to do with nix, and little do with any prod

The line suggests the opposite yes. That's why I take issue with it. There's nothing easy about nix. Maybe flox makes it easier, but I am so burned out by screwing around for countless hours with nix I'm not even going to try

by jahsome 3y ago
The line about nix making it easier for newcomers in the readme and similar statements always trigger me. I am quite a competent person and I've never once thought "that was easy" when trying to use nix. I adore the concepts

I was definitely being tongue in cheek, but technically speaking I think most blasphemous acts aren't harmful, it's the response to those acts that gets people hurt.

A little "light blasphemy" never hurt anyone!

Most people don't, so it gets clicks.

Business Insider is a blog with good branding. Nothing more. Certainly not journalism in any reasonable sense.

I have an old client who called and is having issues with their registration/calendar system. When the page loads it looks for events two years in the future, which as you might guess based on the context of this thread, simply increme

Would you mind elaborating why? I'm not super experienced in the AI world, and barely use Hugging Face. Frankly, the name makes it difficult to take it seriously.

It doesn't really compete will well-edited prose, but transcripts are available on youtube and actually often pretty good, despite being auto-generated.

I did not initiate a conversation with you. You're self-important, under-informed, and over-confident in your "analysis," and worst of all unable to communicate without drawn out pontification about things you clearly have ze

Yes. I have an org issued machine with crap specs and dozens of repos I switch between all day long. Waiting 30s-2m doesn't sound like much but it breaks flow and leads to a lot of "what was I doing again...?" Sidetracks

Your response is very ignorant and you're clearly in no position to be dispensing advice. What you're doing is dangerous. Please stop. This is my last reply to you.

Is there such a thing as a "drastic response" to suicidal ideation?
